Narrowing the field, Part II
The race is on for Governor in the State of Tennessee. On the Republican side - where I usually start looking for decent representation - We have four candidates:
1. Zach Wamp - US Congressman for Chattanooga and parts of East TN
2. Ron Ramsey - State Senator and Lt. Governor.
3. Bill Haslam - Knoxville Mayor.
4. Bill Gibbons - Shelby county (Memphis) District Attorney.
As per my post, Narrowing the Field (first installment), Bill Haslam provided me with enough incentive to refrain from voting for him. See, he opposes HCP holders being allowed to carry in parks. In other words - he does not want the good people of the world to be able to defend themselves from the wolves of the world.
One down.
Now there's another.
In a recent article, Bill Gibbons stated he opposed the "Guns in bars" bill. Really? Come on, now - you know it has been proven over and over that the bill simply allowed Tennessee to join 41 other states in allowing HCP holders to carry into restaurants, provided they don't drink alcohol.
Two down.
Interestingly enough, in the same article, Zach Wamp (ironically, the first person I ever had the opportunity to vote for in a Congressional race after I turned 18), stated the following:
"There can only be one Governor at a time, but if I had been Governor, I would have signed the bill."
In case you are wondering, Ron Ramsey was a co-sponsor for HB 962 - the bill on guns in restaurants. He voted for it.
Ron or Zach?
Wamp or Ramsey?
This might get interresting!
