RIP.
for a moment there i was confusing him with James Baker...
“A moderate republican”?
Not to kick warrented dirt on a dead man but he was the poster child of a RINO.
May he rest in peace after discovering the errors of his ways.
It’s past time for a generational change that will improve things in America. The “go along to get along” compromisers are culpable in creating the Frankenstein Government that is abusing Americans today.
He was a decent man and condolences to his family. As a senator he was no ball of fire and took it on the chin many times from the RATS.
Baker’s death means the last living senator of the seven who were part of the Watergate Committee is Connecticut’s Lowell P. Weicker, Jr. He’s 83.
Howard Baker was a decent and honorable man in exactly and precisely the same way Lindsey Graham is a decent and honorable man.
RIP Mr. Baker.

What was "moderate" about him?
It’s interesting that HHB won his last Senate term on the day that Lamar! was first elected governor and on the day that Good Neighbor Thad won his first Senate term.
He came to Kingsport to speak at our Jaycee annual banquet.
I’ll never forget the comment of my friend’s wife..... “but he’s so short”
My beef was over the damming of the Little T river. TVA made a list of dams back under Roosevelt and the last one was on the Little T. Other than to cross it off the list, many didn’t think it was needed. It flooded the ancestral Cherokee village lands.
TVA condemned and then purchased thousands of acres of prime agricultural land. Then after the dam flooded TVA sold some of the unflooded land. Howard Baker was part of a syndicate that bought it and developed condos and hotels.
Sleezy political act.
