C'mon, folks, this is a Ford now. No need for an election. All a Ford has to do is walk up to the election commission and utter the 5 magic words... "Give me the f**king seat !" and they comply. Don't matter if they're a resident or not. The Fords are like termites. Just when you think you've gotten rid of one, a hundred more appear.
I wonder how this will effect Harold Ford Jr's Senate campaign.
He will get his uncle harold SENIOR's blessings, and folks here will vote for even a dead ford, that is all they need is a ford on the ballot and they will vote for it.
