Fingers crossed....he did well with monuments here but left a fat tab.
Purcell is much much much much worse than Phil. Cretin raised appraisals and the property tax rate at the same time....cost me bad commercially.
Phil sort of voodoo balanced the state budget and now we have the stupid lottery and still they are talking about raising college tuition.
They will never learn...the lottery just funded more freebies. TN has yet to have the Conservative "real life wake up call" my home state of Miss has had over the years....lots of upwardly mobile non-minorities here vote Dem.....Thank God for East Tennessee.
Hmm. Well - I guess I could make it up to plaza a few more times - just for old times sake, dontcha know. ;-)
Bredesen had a lot more money than Van Hilleary. He was able to run ads non-stop in East TN. As a result, Bredesen held down the GOP margins in East TN and the Nashville suburbs, while winning the RAT cities of Nashville and Memphis. Plus he also carried McWherter County (rural West TN) as well. If Bredesen could maintain this coalition, the media will touting him as a possible future Presidential candidate.
