Fair speeches continue

Fair speeches continue

A parade of about 200 Gregg Harper supporters, led by the Republican candidate for Congress himself, have filed into Founder's Square and surrounded the pavilion in advance of his speech at the Neshoba County Fair this morning. They've crowded the outskirts of the pavilion as Chief Justice Jim Smith speaks.
On the Medicaid front, rumors continue to fly about the governor's announcement. A few top Democrats also have been seen combing the aisles under the pavilion.
The House Democrats are expected to hold an impromptu news conference after Gov. Haley Barbour's speech later this morning. We'll keep you posted.
The clouds and slight breeze have kept things slightly cool this morning ... we'll see how long that lasts.
