Shirley Franklin Nominated to Democratic National Convention
Howard Dean announced the 2008 Democratic National Convention committee nominations for 2008. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is nominated as Permanent Chair. Atlanta’s Mayor Shirley Franklin, President of the National Conference of Democratic Mayors (Who knew? Not me.) is nominated as a Permanent Co-Chair.
Congratulations to Mayor Franklin. She’s not my favorite politician, but she sure is far from my least favorite.

She’s already an absentee mayor. The last thing the city needs is for her to have another distraction.
Good point.
