Surely you don't thing that King would be a "great candidate" for District 2. He has more baggage than the JFK Internatl Airport at Christmas time. And if he got elected -- how do you think he'd make Ala. look? As if we don't have enough problems with our image as a state in the national press. The last person we need as our emissary in DC is Troy King. All that aside, he wouldn't lower himself to serve in the Congress. He's got his eyes on the Governor's mansion. Keith,

All that aside, he wouldn’t lower himself to serve in the Congress. He’s got his eyes on the Governor’s mansion.

Terry Everett's picture in this post is broken, at least as I type this. This is related to the web hosting company's upgrades and the other problems of the day. The company tells me these problems will work themselves out, though it may be hours.</i> FWIW, I know that the link to Rep. Terry Everett’s picture in this post is broken, at least as I type this.

He definitely has the resources and is well respected by people on both sides of the aisle. I know he also has a good relationship with Riley and with Hubbard,the GOP chairman. I think he has a good shot. I work with the Legislature and I can tell you for a fact that Jay Love is who most think will follow Everett.

Interestingly enough, it is <a href="http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html#A1Sec2" rel="nofollow">not a requirement</a> that a representative live in the House District that he or she represents. However, when the dust settles, it is certainly a possibility that Bright could be a candidate in 08 for AL-3 against Mike Rogers. Actually he could.

If he thinks he has problems with Lowell and the crew down here. Just wait until he runs into the Pelosis and Rangels and Conyers and Obeys. But never the less I think its a moot point anyway to argue about a Democrat. Unless the districts are changed, the democrats won't win anything down here next year with it being a Presidential election year. I dont know how well Holley would fit in with the Dems in DC.
