I have the ability to determine which candidates’ service would be healthy for our state. With that in mind, I have watched Scott from one county over for years and the guy could do a fine job in higher office. First, the heat he took over the flag situation showed me something and would be impressive with my community. Secondly, he refers to Obama as his or our president. While he wanted a conservative president, it is big or adult of him to acknowledge the sworn president selected by the voters in the same manner I respected the Bushes (adult at a time when many are acting like spoiled brats.) As a centrist Democrat, I generally want a Democrat in office but as a realist I hope that any Republican who wins office is a person with a desire to bridge the divide and generate policy that reflects the interests of all. For example, Isakson is my choice for senate because his brand of conservatism involves dialog and I think the same can be said about Scott. I wish he had chosen a congressional bid because I don’t see the GOP primary voters fully appreciating this guy. I get it also.

I am glad that you "got it." I did the first time I met him back in early fall. Like you, I think that he has the right approach to government and has a common sense approach to the problems that are facing Georgians. He is going to surprise a whole lot of people before all is said and done. If he ever gets finished with session (something people overlook that he did not quit to run for Governor) and can get on the campaign trail full time, his message is going to sway voters his way. He's a very ethical and moral man who has the right vision for Georgia. I believe in him totally. Thank you so much for this refreshing article.

Mercer Grads, regardless of GPA or ranking, heavily populate the legal community for the part of Georgia that many Atlanta based lawyers try to pretend doesn't exist. There are law offices south of the Atlanta area. As for Perdue's "pony project" such spending is yet another example of politicians failing to address the real issues plaguing the state budget. But as typical with many politicians that seem to feel "entitled" due to their public servant position using it as a means to inflat their wallet and the wallet of their friends.

I am not going to let you talk about my brother’s speaking skills without coming to his defense (oops, I keep forgetting that the president is equally your brother.) All kidding aside, that professorial tone of Obama sometimes gets on my nerves. Like an Ivy League professor with a corduroy blazer with leather elbow patches and a pipe. I know you are busy with your studies but when you get a chance, page down on my blog and listen to the NAACP Obama speech; it gave me goose bumps but will likely be so-so to you since we are different dudes from difference eras. I am envious of any man who gets to spend time with his grandfather because all four of my grandparents were gone before I was born. Break out the recording device and make a book from his musings on life and a father keepsake and a gift for your future kids. Wait a second, big fellow.
