This Is Going to Be Interesting

Interesting comments from new House Majority Leader Gary Odom in today's Nashville City Paper. Odom, a Nashville Democrat, disagrees with Gov. Phil Bredesen and House Speaker Jimmy Naifeh on key tax issues - Odom favors reducing the sales tax on groceries, Bredesen doesn't; Odom opposes a state income tax, Naifeh favors it.

Odom also comments on what I we noticed here the day after the Nov. 7 election - despite his popularity and big statewide re-election win, Bredesen had no coattails in the election.
