More on the governor's race

A couple of notes on the governor's race here in TN:

1. The Tea Party has endorsed Ron Ramsey

2. I recently asked someone close to me who he preferred in the election. He said Haslam. Why? Two reasons:
First - He felt Haslam was the only one with a chance to win.
(Yes, this individual has not been paying attention to national political swings this year)
Second - He felt he stood a good chance to get a job in Haslam's cabinet.

Talk about two really weak reasons. I reminded him that Haslam is a gun grabber (this individual is a big NRA fan), for higher taxes, and has some other skeletons. Didn't matter. This individual claims to be a republican, but lacks in conservatism.

3. Zach Wamp has a really cool commercial out. It features several famous Tennesseans - John Rich (Big & Rich - Country music band), Dave Ramsey (noted financial adviser), and Michael W. Smith (Christian musician).
If Ramsey does not get the nod, I hope Wamp does.
