It is a cat fight over in the state Democrat party as current Democrat majority leader Rep. Gary Odom (Who was attacked yesterday as untrustworthy by the governor) takes a swipe back at the Democrat governor for being lazy.
A unified bunch over there.
Meanwhile, Republicans in Tennessee are getting national attention for being on message, beating back the liberals and thus winning seats.
From The Wall Street Journal....
"Republican Party officials say they didn't shy from their bedrock opposition to abortion or support for expanding gun rights and lower taxes. Instead, they put local Democratic candidates on the defensive by aligning them with Mr. Obama, whose stances on such issues are perceived as more liberal than opinions held by a majority of Tennessee voters.
One popular tactic was a bumper sticker hammering congressional Democrats, as well as Mr. Obama, for initially opposing offshore drilling this summer when gasoline prices hit record highs. Sales of the bumper sticker, which says "YOUR WALLET: The only place Democrats want to drill," raised roughly $10,000 for the state Republican party.
