Republican attack on Cover Tennessee fails

Hi All!
The Republican attack on Cover Tennessee fails and so far the only place I've seen this story mentioned (other than the local paper, the Knox News Sentinel) has been on KnoxViews. Nothing on Brian's Blog and nothing on Oatney's World. Which is, but then isn't, surprising. Both have been crowing loudly and strongely on Sen. Jim Bryson's guebnatorial race. I've been pestering both of them concerning his race pointing out that he has waited too long to launch his race against a widely popular governor like Gov. Bredesen. David (of Oatney's World) has pointed out that (correctly) that we Dem's should not blow off Sen. Bryson. He also seems to think (incorrectly) that the conservative of Tennessee will rise up and sweep Sen. Bryson into office.
This development, this defeat for Sen. Bryson (and handily executed slap-down) by Gov. Bredesen speaks well of the future. I think both Brian and David (and all conservatives, for that matter) really need to be careful about counting on any "groundswell" in their direction. It looks to me that the country has had about all the conservativeness it can stand.

Take Care, Be Good and don't play in the street!

Steve;
Now you did catch that Bredesen's latest approval rating was down to 51%, right?

BTW, I didn't mention TennCare II because frankly, I thought it was a non-story. I knew that the Senate GOP would sell us short on it, which they did.

I have given up the notion that a majority of our legislatirs in Nashville of either party have independent minds of their own.
