Kentucky Republicans hear from New Jersey Governor Chris Christie tomorrow at the state GOP's annual Lincoln Day Dinner. 

Many political analysts say Christie is being considered as a Vice Presidential running mate for GOP likely nominee Mitt Romney. His visit captured the attention of Democrats, including U.S. Representative John Yarmuth of Louisville, who has a press conference scheduled today to discuss Christie's visit. A statement distributed by Democrats accused Christie of "pandering to the extreme wight wing base."
