Sen. Lamar Alexander Makes Bus Stop in Nashville
Chas Sisk, 8:04 p.m. CDT July 28, 2014
U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander thanked volunteers and delivered a short campaign speech in his first Nashville stop of a statewide bus tour.
About 150 people, including country music star Kix Brooks and former Tennessee Gov. Winfield Dunn, turned out for Alexander's dinnertime appearance at his Music Row campaign headquarters.
Wearing a small-checked plaid shirt, the two-term senator told the crowd that he will be better than any of his primary opponents at advancing conservative causes. He listed repeal of the Affordable Care Act and stopping federal involvement in education as two priorities.
"Some people just want to make a speech," he said. "I want to get a result."
Across the street, about 40 supporters of state Rep. Joe Carr, one of Alexander's primary opponents, held a counter rally. Filing along the sidewalk and waving signs, they said Alexander has ducked debate requests.
"I think he believes he can ascend royalty-like to the office of senator," said Ben Cunningham, a Nashville tea party activist. "That's the problem. That's why we're out here."
Alexander also faces Memphis physician George Flinn and four other candidates in the Aug. 7 GOP primary.

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
