On Saturday morning, as much of the political press corps pursued angles on Hillary Clinton's "basket of deplorables" remarks, the governor of Kentucky was addressing the annual Values Voter Summit at the Omni Shoreham hotel. The media that had swarmed the Values Voter Summit for Donald Trump's speech Friday did not return Saturday. That evening, when Bevin returned to Kentucky to speak at a party dinner, and whacked Clinton on "deplorables," local reports made no mention of the Values Voter speech. (Personal confession time: After two days of apocalyptic rhetoric, I listened to Bevin but did not hear a story.) Peter Montgomery, PFAW's tireless correspondent at conservative conferences, wrote up the Bevin remarks for a Monday blog post.
