Some said he got mad at the GOP for chopping up his house seat in a special redistricting map but others said he was a RINO from the start. Whatever the case, he went all over the district that summer attacking Savannah Mayor Bob Shutt(R). He would call radio shows in Jackson and Memphis bragging about how many Wilder signs were in the yards of people who had Bush signs up.

Under the “B” … June 1 

                 I’ve tried to follow BINGO rules and BINGO raids.  I’m not sure I understand the law, nor do I get the motives of many of the principal players.  I bet many of you know a heck of a lot more about this than I.  But one thing I am [...]
