Capitol Weekly is reporting that Sam Blakeslee will replace Mike Villines as Assembly Republican Leader.

Like Capitol Weekly, The Sacramento Bee is also reporting that Mike Villines will step down as Assembly Republican Leader, but they do not name the successor.

Not So Fast...

Blakeslee is Villines handpicked successor after Villines knew that he was out as leader.  He used what little clout he had remaining to get his own guy as the next leader.

I got confirmation a while ago

I just posted... but I can not tell if all these leaks are a drill for or against Blakeslee.

Allan, If that's true, it's

Allan,

If that's true, it's kinda like Mike Carona hand-picking Jack Anderson to replace him...
