Jim Galloway talks to Georgia Attorney General Thurbert Baker, a Democratic candidate for governor (an underdog in the primary against former Governor Roy Barnes), and finds that the “health care repeal” fight has benefits for both parties. It’s letting Baker take a whack at the GOP.
“„We’re not interested in political gamesmanship in the office of the attorney general. We’re not interested in making political points. The role of the attorney general is to follow the law, and where we feel there have been violations, we need to address it… There’s a little thing called the supremacy clause. Federal law supercedes state law. And so I’m very interested in knowing, at least from those who think there’s a basis is, at least what they think the basis is.
The lawsuit filedby 13 of Baker’s peers, as some have pointed out, is not exactly rock-solid (note the lack of footnotes). And on the flip side of this, former congressman Nathan Deal, who just retired to mount a full-time GOP bid for governor of Georgia, is urging supporters to hound Baker.
