Saw the Fox 13 News broadcast tonight. They reported about consolidation. Both mayors went to Nashville today to discuss the topic with Bredesen. It seems like they are really trying to get this thing moving but it looks like the one thing Herenton and Wharton have disagreements with is the school system. I think the only way people in the county go along with a metro government is if the city lays it's hands off the county school system. Personally I think a metro government for Memphis would be good for the city but I have my doubts about people in the county going along with it.
