I’m with you. I hope that DesJarlais can pull this out. From what I’ve heard about Tracy, he could end up being another establishment lackey for Boehner.
A friend of mine said it well at the election party we attended the other night ..... DesJarlais is more of what the Founding Fathers had in mind when the Constitution was drawn up - - a citizen who steps up to the plate to go to DC to represent the people in his district.
Tracy is a power-hungry career politician.
I tend to agree with her.
When they re-drew the districts a couple of years ago, I’d say Tracy had a big hand in making sure Rutherford Co. was part of District 4. It’s part of his State Senate district. He was already planning this run for DesJarlais’ seat back then.
DesJarlais took 10 of the 16 counties in the district. If Rutherford Co. is taken out of the equation, DesJarlais stomped Tracy.
