Capitol sources say Senate Republicans have confirmed a contentious caucus to pick the next senate leader as mandated by the constitution is underway at 23rd and Lincoln.
Supporters of Coffee’s choice for leader, Sen. Brian Bingman, are pushing to get Bingman appointed quickly. But revelations last fall and last week about questionable actions by Coffee and consigliore Fred Morgan have some senators hopping mad, and our sources tell us several Republicans want more time to sort out the whole ethical cloud surrounding Coffee and Bingman before they select their new leader.
Additionally, there is at least one report that a key member of the Coffee/Bingman camp may have missed a key ethics report deadline. We’ll be looking more into this possible blockbuster development.

Senate ‑ President pro tempore ‑ Standing committees.
The Senate shall, at the beginning of each regular session and at such other times as may be necessary, elect one of its members President pro tempore, who shall preside over its deliberations in the absence or place of the Lieutenant Governor; and the Senate shall provide for all its standing committees and, by a majority vote, elect the members thereof.”
That by no means requires that the Caucus of a particular party select a candidate for Protem for the NEXT LEGISLATURE. The candidate that they select MIGHT NOT EVEN BE IN OFFICE! It was said that it was REQUIRED for them to do this at this time. It is not required until NEXT YEAR.

And please remember to consult your doctor before making any changes to your diet or lifestyle.
