The next Bubba?

[Notre Dame rules!]

While he tended to raise taxes (alot) in Nashville while he was Mayor, he has proven to be very fiscally conservative as Governor, and has been willing to take on our disastorous healthcare plan, TennCare.

I don't like his odds in the Democrat primaries, but he would make a very formidable candidate in the General Election, and could very well peel off several Southern states, especially if we nominate  Pataki,  Hagel, or even Rudy.

Why do you Dems want to chase every last moderate/conservative Democrat out of the Party?  However, as a conservative, I'd be happy to welcome him into the GOP big tent.  He's a little left on some social issues, but he has been spot on fiscally.
