You got paid didn't you?

...Speaker Williams bent over backwards, made him a subcommittee chairman. He's tried to meet him halfway, and he's still trying to dig in and keep this thing festering."
That's Nashville Democratic Rep. Mike Turner complaining about Brian Kelsey's decision to pursue an ethics complaint against Speaker Kent Williams. Translation: Kelsey's been paid off sufficiently to keep his mouth shut. Mike Turner it seems is from the Rod Blogojevich school of politics where you make explicit arrangements and understandings that others handle on an implicit level.
