As expected Frank Page was re-elected without opposition yesterday at the SBC in San Antonio. I've gotten to know Dr. Page slightly in the year I've been at North Greenville. He is the man for the hour in our convention.
Jim Richards of Texas was elected 1st VP. Some see this vote as an opportunity for the "old-guard" to reestablish itself. Perhaps, but since Richards is executive director of the Southern Baptists of Texas he had a home-field advantage, much as Page had last year in Charlotte. It will be the presidential vote next year that will determine whether Page's election was just a blip on the screen or something more substantial.
