How did I miss this story. The Tennessean on August 7, 2005 had this story about liberal United States Senator Joe Biden and his talk with the Tennessee Democrat Leadership. At this event Governor Bredesen is quoted as saying. Talk to people, you normally wouldn’t talk politics with. Mainly listen for what they are looking for.
I hope that this state is smart enough to catch you on this one.
In other words, let’s tell them what they want to hear and then we will do what we want once we have the power. Kind of like a guy that professed to be a business man and then his answer to a couple of sexual harassment cases is to shred the documents. Kind of like a guy that professed to be able to improve education, and the graduation rates were inflated. Kind of like a guy that professed to be able to recruit new and better jobs for Tennessean’s and then the unemployment rate rises in Tennessee while it declines nationwide.
Oh wait. That is the Bredesen road show.
