I only wish that your graphic had been on campaign posters all over the state. You have the perfect perception of Tenn.voters.
Many Tennesseans are surprised that a Democrat with so much baggage has run such a close race against an attractive Republican candidate. The success of Ford's campaign "is the most shocking thing a person could have witnessed in Tennessee politics in a lifetime," says Bruce Dobie, a conservative Democrat and media entrepreneur in Nashville. "It's just astonishing all the way across the board." A Ford victory would arguably be the Senate upset of the year. It might also portend a long election night for Republicans.
