What BRTD said, plus the GA House had its own Mike Madigan in Speaker Tom Murphy.  He helped spur a lot of economic development in Georgia and was just an all-around popular public figure.

He also tried to gerrymander Newt Gingrich out of his House seat though and eventually all of the gerrymandering backfired on him when he lost reelection despite having been in the statehouse for forty years.
