Political Notes

The governor's economic adviser is quietly optimistic, and Lewis Massey may be considering a return to politics.

The Speaker eyes November's election...More cremation questions...Miller for Veep?

Looking ahead to the 2006 governor's race.

The Congressman gets litigious...Murphy wants to re-up...Byrne smells a rat.

Republicans think they can score votes from redistricting anger... Barnes... floor leader quits... Phil Gramm scores at UGA.
