www.wate.com/global/story.asp?s=12130088This is the latest. What do you think? Are you one of the people that just doesn't understand? Is this coming up now just to sabotage his chance of winning the mayoral election? What other Hutchison controversies have come up over the years? I have to admit that Hutchison made a good impression on me. Right after I moved here, he did a cell check and confiscated some contraband from prisoners and everybody started screaming about the prisoners rights. I remember Hutchison on t v making the statement that they were prisoners, not guests. That was all I ever heard him say about it. It made sense to me. He didn't back down from what he thought was the right thing to do, and I admire that in a person. What do you all thinK?

Ask Hutch who owns the dealership that the county bought all the police cars from.

Does TN not have "state contract" prices on things purchased by county and municipal governments?
In MS, if a local gov't purchased office supplies, vehicles, uniforms, furniture, computers, software, toilet paper, or hot dogs (the hot dogs may be an exaggeration) there was a contract price negotiated by the state.
As long as you didn't pay more than the contract price, you can buy from whomever.
