Ken Whitehouse of the NashvillePost.com reports that House Speaker Jimmy Naifeh is in for fight with Nashville Democrat Rep. Gary Odom for the top leadership job.
Rep. Odom has stepped forward recently as a defender of TennCare and the state's most vulnerable. It's nice to have such a leader on Capitol Hill after failures in the governor's, speaker's and Lt. Gov.'s office.
Would Odom actively buck heads with Gov. Phil Bredesen in defense of the many against the needs of the few? We haven't seen as much from leadership on Capitol Hill during Bredesen's almost six years as governor.
