You're right. I stand corrected. But he got there because of the "Memphis" vote which is his district. I don't think the whole state will vote for him over Corker, even though Bob Corker is considered somewhat of a moderate. Generally speaking, the state of Tenn is conservative.

QFE. You nailed it.

Ford is not too comfortable running a statewide race. Running for a Congressional seat in your own district is far different then running for one of two Senate seats in the entire state.

Senator's don't confront -- not like this. They reason and they deliberate.

Historically, the Senate is known as a "Gentlemen's Club"; for real. As my daddy would say, Ford Jr. pissed into the wind on this one.

He's already in DC...hopefully TN is smarter enough NOT to allow him as their senator.

Oh, trust me; Ford Jr. is toast. He'll lose by 3% points. If Corker was more Conservative and pro-life, he'd win by 5%.
