Greatjob Andy ! Look for Andy Sher to become Commication Director for Chuck! Pay off for the job he and Skip Saltsman did on Robin.
A total shame that politics has come down to money and persona. This man has nothing different, fresh, or original to offer, only generic lines about federal spending and Christian morals. Its an absolute joke, yet he is going to be representing our district in Washington. A scary thought. God help the 3rd district.
As a Republican, Nashville resident, and strong Robin Smith supporter I have analyzed this election. Robin's victory in her hometown was completely off set in Anderson County and Roane County with a 1500 vote margin. Fleischmann had to have a big vote there to win the election. The grass roots campaign engineered by Mr Beauchamp was the difference in the election. If he supports a different candidate, Robin would have won the election. I was stunned that he pulled it off with all the support she had in Anderson County. He is to be congratulated for his efforts. Fleischmann carried no other county by more than 550 votes. I applaud Robin Smith and all her contributions to our state party. She did amazing things during her tenure. I hope Mr Fleischmann will keep his word and vote against earmarks in Washington DC and repeal ObamaCare.
