[edit] Jim Guy Tucker

I wondered if he is still active in politics. I haven't heard of him in recent years. Jack Tucker jackfran@peoplpc.com 206.148.96.115

-I deleted this portion from the article discussing what Tucker is doing today. It's disgustingly biased and unsourced, pointless flattery and rhetoric that looks like it was added by his Aunt:

"In spite of his becoming ensnared by the Whitewater scandal, seen by many as an extraordinary irony since he had nothing to do with the Clintons' business dealings and had remained an outspoken Clinton policy critic, he is widely thought of as having been a moderately progressive governor who strove to improve public services, particularly in the areas of highway maintenance and secondary education."

[edit] Acting Governor

Should Tucker be listed as Acting Governor, December 1992 to January 1995? Isn't the Arkansas gubernatorial succession, the same as Massachusetts? GoodDay (talk) 19:02, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
