The question begs, what did they give him ? (Or in a more sinister vein, what were they holding over him ?). In a way, it’s a good thing he didn’t end up as Governor, because if he was capable of doing that as a CANDIDATE, what Scumquistian schtick would he have done here in Nashville ? Whatever else, Ed Bryant and the good people of this state didn’t deserve to get screwed like that.
Ed Bryant was cheated out of the primary against Lamar too, in 2002...
I wonder if he would run again?
