Why is this bad news? What do us non-Tennesean's need to know?
This is a Mason-Dixon poll, right?
At least it shows Corker handily defeating Ford in the general when compared to a Univ. of Tennessee poll taken recently (showed Corker +7).
RINO Corker is dangerously ahead.
Only The Club From Growth could possibly stop him now, and they're remaining neutral in this primary.
It is widely believed that Corker is pro-choice, and is now compromising his 'principles' to gain more political power. Does that remind anyone of someone ELSE from Tennessee?
Doggone it, a 3-way primary isn't necessarily the best thing. Corker is riding on his record as Chattanooga Mayor where he had a generally uneventful career (though he did, I believe, have some influence in the selling of a decent apartment complex overlooking downtown to a corporate entity). His record on the abortion issue doesn't look good at all. How's his budgeting sense (as if I should ask, seeing that he was associated with Governor "Taxquest").
This race is over.
I voted in the rat primary to vote against a bad judge. Does this mean I can't vote in the republican primary? And when is the republican primary?
SurveyUSA has a new poll out on this race, too. Corker 49, Bryant 29, Hilleary 15.

This kind of thing has happened for years in Republican primaries for the House in the Midwest and CA, particularly. Conservatives cannot agree on one candidate, they splinter their vote, and the "moderate" gets the nomination. I'm sure it will happen in TN too. I've notice more and more southern conservatives cannot control Republican primaries in their own region. A lot of this is merely the lack of knowledge about the candidates.
