Oh, yes, we Tennesseans are well familiar with the Fords. They have lied, cheated, extorted, stolen, taken bribes, and bribed their way into our history books. They are also perfect representatives of the people of Memphis.
BTW, Ophelia Ford does not live in the district for which she just ran, as required by the Tennessee Constitution, but neither did her crooked brother, who admitted in court that he didn't. The state senate doesn't see any problem with ignoring the state constitution because so many of them have dirty laundry mixed up with Ford's. Ford has openly told them that he will take them down with him if they dare to testify against him.
Nice bunch. Harold Ford Jr. is the son of a gangster pretending to be respectable.

Remember when State Rep. Ford shot at the truck driver?
Well, that's all good confirmation for me. Thanks. Now hopefully we'll remember this when it comes time for "Junior" to move up in the world.

It seems to me that TN has been trending Pubbie (except for, of course, this and perhaps other districts). Hal Jr is very well spoken and comes across ususally as a rather resonable person on TV. Do you think in a state-wide Senate campaign he has a good chance? Can the Dims do their dirty tricks wrt to elections somewhat easily across TN and get away w it? Who do you think the Pubbies will put up against Jr?
