West Tennessee Politicians: Pay Attention
The power shift is changing. I honestly don’t know why west Tennessee legislators aren’t paying attention. And if they are, many of them are so involved with the game of politics that they are forgetting about the day-to-day lives of the constituents who voted for them.
Let me repeat, YOUR CONSTITUENTS! The people in your district, regardless if they voted for you or not, are watching plants leave, businesses close and a very real crunch of small businesses (talk to Homer) and it seems like no one is communicating.
How many times do I have to say the gravy days are over for NW Tennesseans only thanks to Gov. Ned McWherter because it did start moving south when he left office.
The voices are silent for the most part.
Man, there are times that I wish that progressive state-wide reps would watch what Barack Obama’s PR team did nationwide but I guess that would be asking for too much progress or something.
And then I sigh.
“And if they are, many of them are so involved with the game of politics that they are forgetting about the day-to-day lives of the constituents who voted for them.”
BINGO.
It got to be too much about inside baseball for them, that and the fact that I suspect they were listening too much to their buddies in the country clubs and hunting clubs and not enough to their actual constituents.
Thank you for validating. It irritates the horse piss out of me.
