I am really wondering why the weekend jump by Senator Lamar Alexander to announce his campaign leadership team for his re-election in 2014. The November 6, 2012 isn’t even a full month behind us and Lamar! is naming his re-election team.
He has Congressman John J. Duncan, Jr. as Chairman and then nearly everyone else as campaign co-chairs. Fellow recently re-elected Senator Bob Corker, Governor Bill Haslam, Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey, Speaker Beth Harwell and all the Republican Congressional members (minus Rep. Scott DesJarlais).
In a related or maybe unrelated news. TN State Executive Committee this weekend selected TN Republican Party Chairman Chris Devaney to another two year term. Apparently, no one challenged Devaney. I assume Gary Loe didn’t show up to testify.
Lamar wants to announce early so he can start fundraising early and fatten his coffers …he uses this money for all kinds of travel and “office” expenses. Also he is worried about a very outgoing “Judd” getting in the raise
NO MORE Lamar Rino in Conservative Clothing, Bob is right there with him , cant believe Mr Duncan put his name on this list
