Oh, yeah. I was telling you about how Watkins Abbitt is forever tied to big money lobbyists, just like ex-Congressman Virgil Goode.  Watkins Abbitt is surrounded by lobbyists. His wife, sister and niece are all lobbyists.

When you consider how important it is this coming 2009 Session to actually get something done, Republicans-be-damned, it makes little sense to wait to talk about the Repub.. er Independent in the 59th District. You see, Watkins is a man without a caucus, without a party.

In any case, the ‘Mayor of the 59th District’ needs to go into retirement. He can’t go soon enough.
