Nashville Post- “Lot of rats leaving the ship,” one David Briley loyalist
quipped, a dual indictment of both the rats and the ship, proverbially
sinking.
In the days since Metro Councilmember John Cooper finished atop the mayoral field on Aug. 1,
sending him to a runoff against Briley, the incumbent and second-place
finisher, some of Briley’s most prominent financial supporters have been
switching sides.
Next week, developer Bill
Hostettler, sign magnate and airport authority member Bobby Joslin,
Ryman Hospitality Properties CEO Colin Reed and historian David Ewing
are throwing a fundraiser for Cooper, according to an invitation
obtained by the Post. Each had previously given more than $1,000 to Briley. (link)
