If Diana Ross were here, she might ask the supreme question: Baby, baby, where did our governor go? Kenny Guinn was there during the 2005 fight over that prescription drug bill, jousting with Barbara Buckley until he finally relented and signed it. Now that the Pharmacy Board, dissing the attorney general, is moving forward, what does the governor think? Sayeth a spokesman: "He thought the Pharmacy Board did a good job of deliberating the issue, and that (the AG) wrote a good opinion. He thinks the Pharmacy Board took it upon themselves to take bold action to say, 'We can go with this legislation.' He (Guinn) is neither in support or against it." Ain't no waffle high enough.
