I wonder if Jones is a former Democrat. He has long been accused of being more Democrat in sympathy than Republican. He wanted to keep Pete Laney as Speaker in 2003, but the votes were not there.
To: Theodore R.
Jones is a former Democrat. He served in the legislature from 1964-1973 before being beaten for renomination by, you guessed it, Pete Laney, in 1972. He made a comeback as a Republican 16 years later and still remains to this day.
