Too close for comfort?

Seating_chart Check out the new seating arrangement in the senate (click to enlarge). Bitter rivals Alex Villalobos and Alex Diaz De La Portilla are right next to each other.

Alas, it may not last long.

The senators are in numerical order for now and will be rearranged with their new committee assignments. Buzz hears that committee assignments won't be made for another several weeks, which means the two are stuck beside each other for tomorrow's festivities. The question is: Will the new committee assignments be made before a possible special session?

DLP is a sissy. He should thank his lucky stars there are cameras on all the time in the chamber.

Not much worse than Alexander having to sit next to Dockery. After whooping her people- Benson, Farkas, and Murman, she wont be very nice to her fellow Polk County Senator.

D07:34 did you forget the butt kicking Dockery and other Alex supporters gave Alexander by getting Alex reelected? Besides no one wants to sit next to bad breath, cry baby, bypolar JD

Wow, bad breath- that's an original one. I agree on the Villalobos one-
Alexander 3
Dockery 1

who cares?

Isn't that the same seating arrangement they had for Caesar, Brutus and Cassius?

Isn't Cassius a watch?

we know who the tough ones are in the Villalobos team. They don't announce themselves like Dockery does.

JD should sit next to bullard.

No, Jd should sit next to Siplin. They have lots in commom.

Crybaby, bypolar is a very good description of Alexander.

JD does sit next to Siplin. Go figure.

Bennete sits behind JD. Thats so he can protect his back. Might just get stabbed in the back if he sat in front of him.

DLP asked to sit near Haridopois and Fasano. He would fit in much better there.

Do not disparage DLP. He is a sweet compassionate person . My heart hurts when you hurt him. He is just fine.
