twitterFLASHPOINT for Dec 11, 2006
Monday, Dec. 11, 2006 | 7:32 a.m.
Tom Collins is always in a good mood, it seems. But when he appeared on "Face to Face" last week, he seemed especially jovial, even for him. Yes, Cowboy Tom is thrilled the rodeo was in town. But it's more than that. Here's a guy who was not among leadership during his Carson City tenure and now suddenly he is the Democratic Party chairman and a member of the most powerful board in the state. And he says he's going to run again. Why not? He doesn't care if he's called a labor puppet, or (I am guessing this is coming) a Chris Giunchigliani puppet or a maverick on the far left of the board. He's having the time of his life, and now he has a little power to go with that good old cowboy demeanor.
