A sad day for Georgia

James "GriftDrift" Williams, the local blogger who would've made an interesting addition to the Gold Dome's lonely Independent party, says he's decided not to run for state House District 82.

He announces on his blog:

After much consideration, I've decided to not run for House District 82.

Although I was overwhelmed by the support and encouragement of friends and family, it is just not the right time in my life to cross the fence from the land of the policy observers to the land of policy makers.

I wish whoever runs for the 82nd much luck and, of course, I'll be watching closely.

As for the future. You'll just have to wait and see.

Did the Drudge siren scare you away? Was it too much? Dammit.

Last we heard, Scott Holcomb, a former Democratic Secretary of State candidate, was being urged by local donkeys to run for the seat.
