Ladies and Gentlemen, The Next Governor of The Great State of Tennessee: Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam

OK. SO IT WON'T BE OFFICIAL TILL NOVEMBER, but it's all over but the shouting. Bill Haslam will be the next governor of Tennessee and a good GOP leader-- though perhaps not as tough and outspoken as NJ Gov. Chris Christie. He'll do what needs to be done to keep Tennessee solvent and business and employment friendly which is no small accomplishment in this day. Congratulations, Bill, on your handy win!

I just hope that he doesn't raise taxes or pull some other RINO trick....

Me too, but I think he'll be a business friendly governor who will attempt to keep taxes low and cut state spending. Time will tell.

Thanks to TN who defeated the radical Teaparty candidate - Lou Ann Zelenik. Also thanks to the Teaparty for giving us a candidate Harry Reid can beat. Since the Teaparty candidate Sharon Angle was nominated by the GOP, Intrade's odds of Reid winning reelection have soared from 23% to 58%.
