Lexington Herald Ledger: Kentucky Senate race could help measure Tea Party's true clout
If political newcomer Rand Paul, a darling of the Tea Party movement, sails to victory in Kentucky's May 18 GOP primary, the win could prove a harbinger of November's mid-term elections. Political analysts and national media outlets continue to focus on the battle between Paul and the Republican establishment's favorite — Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson — as an experiment in grass-roots insurgency powered by disgruntled conservatives who bemoan what they see as an unprecedented expansion of federal government. In many ways, the Kentucky contest will help measure the Tea Party movement's true clout. But a lot of that depends on whether Paul, 47, an eye surgeon from Bowling Green, can avoid some potential land mines that have drawn attention nationally.

NY Post: Geeks' goofs cost NY $140M in Medicaid
Bureaucratic bungling of the Medicaid program at the state level has squandered more than $140 million in taxpayer dollars over the last decade by putting thousands of ineligible people on the public health-insurance rolls. The reason, The Post has learned, is a simple computer hiccup - and the problem isn't even completely fixed. Albany computer geeks failed to update the database, so the system misread new codes in information provided by the federal government dating back to 1999, according to explosive documents included in litigation filed in 2001 against the state by New York City. The case has bounced around the court system and was recently ruled on by the state Court of Claims.
