    Sen. Stacey Campfield defeated in Republican primary

    Tennessee state Sen. Stacey Campfield, R-Knoxville, who has made national headlines for backing controversial bills and making statements lampooned by late-night comedians, lost his bid for a second Senate term decisively Thursday.

    Campfield, a mainstay at the legislature since being elected to the House in 2004, finished with 5,824 votes, just 28 percent of the overall vote, compared to 13,977 votes, 67 percent, for Richard Briggs, a Knox County commissioner. more . . .

    Only if the lambs elected the wolves.

    Of course, if the lambs hadn't the right to vote, then we're back to a feudal system.
