Draft this man for the state senate. Please.

I'm looking through the pictures I took at last night's event at the Clinton Library, and no one had a better time than Gregg Reep. As his House career draws to a close this term, it's easy to see that he'll have a hard time hanging it all up after 24 years as an elected official in the public arena.

Knowing him, he'll have worn a hole in the carpet and'll be driving Beverly crazy within a week or two of term limits kicking in. For his own sake and sanity, and for the betterment of southeast Arkansas, I hope he considers a run ton continue the honorable service of Sen. Jimmy Jeffress, when he retires in 2012.
