I will stay tuned.....
I think this is one of the most under-reported, yet significant outcomes of this historic election. It has been decades since I've been to Georgia, but my family had roots there and I am just blown away to finally see this happening.
This election was not just a victory for the GOP, it brought about the smashing of generations of Dem control in certain areas and regions. This was the kind of absolute control that you would have had to pry from their cold dead fingers even a decade ago.
As I said, I think this is an important sign indicating the momentum strength of this political shift. Go Georgia!
I think we are in for a pretty rough ride.
The Republicans literally have not been in power for 5-6 generations. They have no idea how to run the state. They'll have to stop being back-bench bombthrowers and actually DO something. And the Dems can't even comprehend being out of power. I think Mark Taylor is beginning to dimly see what he's in for, hence his ongoing hissy fit.
I was just telling somebody today that if I were the new Repub floor leader I would be over talking to Tom Murphy's staff and trying to hire on one or two of them to show me the ropes.
Of course, if enough Dem senators switch over, it won't be a problem. They already know how things work.
