Catching Up
Bloglines wasn't feeding me my news all morning, and then I've been in meetings/childcare/kitchen duty ever since. But, boy, a few things have come up:
Kathryn Bowers will resign from the State Senate. Okay, Ward. Time to get off the can. I do wish Sen. Bowers the best with her health problems, but will not be sorry in the least to see her leave the legislature. Hat tip: VV
More and more attention is being given a story that slipped into the blogstream rather quietly over at the Groves. Friends, I'll do all I can, but some help would be good here. You can email me with any information you have. Make sure to read the comment thread at BillHobbs for the latest as this develops. If time permits, I'll pay a visit (or at least a phone call) to the Election Commission for some data. I want it to be clear that I am in this as much for vindication, if that's what's warranted, as for confirmation of wrongdoing, if indeed that's the case. Most of the people raising this issue are pretty partisan, and not on Favors' team. I want it on record that I'm an independent analyst who will look into the matter fairly and completely. I'm just as neutral, but just as adamant for truth, in the Shirley Ward story where these comments first appeared.
In other news, there's been a Phil sighting.
A local favorite blogger, Alice of 10,000 Monkeys and a Camera, gave an interview about Tennessee politics to Pensito Review. I wasn't very familiar with that site, but she seems pretty stoked about it.
More later, as I get more caught up.
