Wilder Says He Has Williams' Vote
To no one's surprise, Lt. Gov. John Wilder says that he has "Republican" Mike Williams' vote, allowing the 85-year old tyrant to keep his position of power in the Tennessee Senate. This from Friday's Tennessean.
My favorite line in the article is the following:
"Noted for his bipartisanship, Wilder has manned the Senate's helm for 36 years."
I would have written that another way, like perhaps:
"Noted for being the punchline of the Tennessee Senate for the past decade, Wilder has manned the Senate's helm for 36 years."
I wonder if the Tennessean thinks that Mike Williams is noted for his bipartisanship, as well.
