An Honest Man.

First the good news: Joe Lance, he of the excellent TennesseeTicket.com, has picked up papers to run for Mayor of Chattanooga. Huh. I didn't see that coming. While I have no idea if Joe has executive skills, I do know that he's a good person who respects the legislative process and, more importantly, respects other people.

Now the bad news: If Joe does this, I already regret what Ron and his minions will do to Joe's good name. Is there a Mrs. Joe? If so, she should stop reading the paper or watching TV sometime in early January.

On the other hand, after the amazing election of Barack Obama, we have a new model for serious candidates running against those who will say or do anything to win. Barack treated McCain with respect even when McCain's people were smearing him with lies and innuendo. The country seemed to respond pretty well to that. Just sayin'.

Good luck, Joe. You'll need it.
