Tennessee will elect another democrat-loving RINO as governor in November. That is unless his democrat buddy wins. What in the hell is wrong with Tennessee? As far as protecting Confederate monuments Lee will do absolutely nothing. If Marsha Blackburn loses to the democrat ex governor for the US senate, Tennessee will have officially went over to the dark side.
I know, it makes me sick. You should see Slick Bill Lee’s ads, so full of phony piety you think he’s running for pastor-in-chief. He’s a con artist.
Diane Black made a grievous error in largely resting on her laurels and thinking her record would speak for itself against two rich crypto-Democrat buffoons. She did put out some great ads roasting them both for supporting Democrats, but it wasn’t enough. Frankly, had I known she was going to run such a weak campaign, I’d have urged we recruit someone else to run (perhaps have had Marsha Blackburn and Black switch races — Black is more situated to DC, anyhow).
The fake Republicans running for Governor took an old page out of the Southern Democrat playbook — pretend to be Conservative to fool the rubes at election time.
I’ll vote for Blackburn, who I do expect to win. Slick Bill Lee can go get some Democrats to vote for his lying ass. I don’t vote for charlatans. If his buddy that he supported with $$, Karl “Marx” Dean does win the Governorship, he’s gonna be badly hamstrung. Unlike with Congress and many other states, a Governor can have his agenda overridden by simple majority vote in the legislature. Dean would be a figurehead while the supermajority GOP legislature is in almost complete control of the agenda. Lee could inflict a lot more damage to the party as a Republican than Dean could as a Democrat.
