FOCUS: Senator Isakson served with distinction as admired Republican official

By Elliott Brack |  For 16 years in the Georgia Legislature, Johnny Isakson knew what it was to be a minority as a Republican elected official.  For seven terms in the House, plus later another term in the Georgia Senate, he toiled endlessly for good government, winning even the admiration of those in the Democratic Party for his zeal, friendliness, reasonableness and hard work.

Johnny Isakson announced that he would resign from the Senate at the end of the year. The senior senator has served with distinction for 14 years, and has been re-elected rather easily two times. He was not so much the Republican party man, as he was more moderate in his decisions, reflecting many Georgian’s views.
