I really respect the service that Yankee has put forth way before I even knew this forum existed. We may not see eye to eye, but he is a great guy anyway. It was my pleasure being able to work with Yankee in the House and as Speaker and a Representative in general, he has done an amazing job and one accomplishment I would like to mention is his Stegall-Glass Act. He was active and didn't hesitate to comment on whenever someone needed to boost his or her activity up. I still have one of his classic pms to me...
I'm going to withhold my endorsement at the moment, but I definitely would consider voting for him.
Fun fact: Yankee told me that I was his favorite Laborite at the time.
