Schadenfreude, courtesy of our neighbors to the east

Perhaps Memphis and Nashville governments need their own NASCAR circuitThe following may be of some comfort to those who think Memphis politicians have cornered the market on erratic behavior:

According to an article posted on The Tennessean’s Web site today, Metro Nashville Councilwoman Vivian Wilhoite was cited by police this month for driving on a suspended license.

Wilhoite apparently had her license suspended after failing to pay a speeding ticket issued in January.

Wilhoite reportedly "forgot" about the ticket until she was pulled over for speeding, again, a couple of weeks ago.

Hmmm. Sound like anyone we know from around here?

Which leads me to this question: If Wilhoite and Memphis City Councilwoman Janis Fullilove were involved in a street race, I wonder who would win?
