Musical Chairs at the Gold Dome

It seems that some of our candidates can't make up their minds down in my neck of the woods. Earlier this week State Sen. John Douglas qualifyed for re-election to his seat, as did State Rep. John Lunsford. Then came news that PSC Bobby Baker was retiring, and the entire game plan changed for both these fine candidates. Now I don't fault them, nor do I call this opportunism, we just wish Commissioner Baker would have let his intentions be known before the week of qualifying, as there is now a scramble to fill the empty seat left by Rep. Lunsford who will now run for the Senate seat vacated by Sen. Douglas to run for the PSC.
