both houses of the legislature were controlled by Republicans.
Obviously some of them had to go along with the stadium proposal. And
how many - other than Smith - were discharged because of this? I won't
bore you with the names of the GOP heavy hitters who went along with the
stadium.
And of course that famously left of center legislative leader, Kurt
Zellers, rolled over and played dead on the matter. He had it in his
hands to stop the stadium. You remember Mr. Zellers, the one who allowed
Bradlee Dean to serve as chaplain for a day in the legislature and then
was forced to expunge his disrespectful prayer from the legislative
record?
Simply put, Ms. Pugh's Tea Party roots and close association with the
likes of Pastor Tracksuit - that would be Bradlee Dean - are enough to
insure that she will not be a leader in the next legislature.
