Nevertheless, compared to Ford, Corker's the Second Coming.
He is to hardcore conservatives but not to the people of Tennessee as a whole. It is so crucial that we don't let a guy like Ford get his hands on any sort of power as he could easily turn out to be another Clinton. He is far more of a threat than Obama.
This is where the FR strategy of voting for the most conservative candidate in the primary and the for the Republican in the general election really falls apart.
By not considering who is electable, hardcore conservatives can produce a candidate that is totally non-electable in the general election.
Tennessee and Florida should have been easy senate seats and the primary voters in both states really screwed things up. Let's hope that Corker can pull it out as his race is more of a toss up at this point.
