On Beebe’s indestructibility, Sanders quotes the AEDC’s figures of “January 1, 2007 through today, the number of announced jobs (new companies and expansions) is approximately 21,395.” So, I guess we can subtract 300 $12/hour or more jobs from that figure thanks to our Indian friends reneging on their $100,000,000 deal. Was I really the only one who saw this coming?

I had no idea that Andy Mayberry was so accomplished. Thanks to the Tolbert Report, I now know that he publishes the critically acclaimed “East Ender” newspaper. Move over Wm. Randolph Hearst, here comes Andy!!! He should win and deservedly so!
