BillHobbs.com is a frequently updated blog of original reporting and commentary by Bill Hobbs, a longtime Nashville journalist and media relations adviser. I am currently serving as communications director for the Tennessee Republican Party, a job I began on Oct. 29, 2007.
Another East Nashville attorney is lining up to run against state Rep. Rob Briley, the Nashville Democrat convicted of drunk driving after leading police on a dangerous high-speed chase across two counties after leaving the scene of an accident where he smashed his SUV into a car occupied by a family. That makes two attorneys now lining up to challenge Briley, himself an attorney who, it has been reported, was having an affair with the chief lobbyist for the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association while he chaired the House Judiciary Committee and she was handling important legislation before that same committee.
