Ouch!! -- Some strong words by the House Minority Leader on recent DOT election.
From InsiderAdvantage Georgia authored by Dick Pettys:
House Democratic Leader DuBose Porter said this of the board's decision [of Gena Abraham as DOT Commissioner]:
"This was a rare chance to move transportation forward in Georgia. We know that Vance Smith was open to looking at mass transit and a multi-modal center in Atlanta, and seven of the 13 member decided to maintain the status quo, which is not good enough for a growing Georgia. Now, like in healthcare and education, transportation suffers and the state goes further backwards."

Now you say something DuBose. My god you are such a weak "leader". What real world qualifications on the ultra complex realm of transportation does Vance Smith have? None.
Here's what you should be freaking about Dub: The position was open for four days. Four days. And they didn't for one second consider looking at anyone from out not just the state, but from outside of the Gold Dome clique.
Little too late, DuB.
