Well, Gov. Fletcher is suffering from E.coli. The story comes from WKYT in Lexington. I don't wish ill health on anyone (okay, so I commented anonymously on another blog since I was on a public computer). I hope he gets through this latest bout okay.

Doctors now say that infection is E. Coli. Doctors say the strain of E. Coli was resistant to traditional antibiotics, though they believe they have those infections under control.

Doctors say the Governor is looking and feeling better and they hope that's a sign that the sack is not infected. An infection in that area could require one or more surgeries and could lengthen the Governor's hospital stay for weeks.

Last Monday, the Governor had a gall stone removed and on Tuesday had his gall bladder removed.

Regardless of this, I still support Senator Joseph Lieberman.
