Frist says he’ll consider running for governor
Former U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist said he will consider running for governor during a visit today to Knoxville, where he’s giving two lectures sponsored by the University of Tennessee’s Howard H. Baker Jr. Center for Public Policy.
During his first talk, “Health Care: Back to the Future, 2015,” at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Frist – a cardio-thoracic transplant surgeon – recounted seeking Baker’s advice on his political campaign and being advised not to run for governor.
Frist said he may have to revisit the former senator on that point.
“I may need to talk to him (again) about that,” Frist said.
When asked directly about running for governor, Frist said, “Possibly. I will consider it.” He said he didn’t decide to run for Senate until 14 months before he did so.
Oh….please please please please!!! Since the current governor is one of those who thinks he’s got to be our ‘parent’…aka Dhimmi, Senator Frist would be a great improvement.
As for his presidential support, Frist said, “I’m with Fred,” calling Thompson “straight-talking” and “direct.” He said though Thompson has been under fire in the media, “he’ll be able to reply and respond to all of that.”
Ok, no surprise there. After all, aren’t ya suppose to stick with your home folk?
