The Ford family’s political dominance in Tennessee is coming to an end.
Thank God....

Ford attorney David Cocke said a status hearing next month will determine how to go forward with this litigation.Ford should marry her attorney.
Then her name would be Ophelia Cocke.
To: SmithL
Put a cork in Orphie, since you have experience with corks.
The election was necessary. If any one need be sued, it would be you for gross incompetence. How about you having the largest expense account and the lowest attendance? What an example for your people.

No party listed ... must be a dem.

When her brother, John Ford, resigned from office after facing corruption charges, a special election in the fall of 2005 showed Ophelia Ford won the office by 13 votes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her brother is forced to resign because of corruption charges. Then his constituents elect his drunken sister to replace him. She was elected by dead voters.
Man!!— it doesnt take a genious to figure out there are a lot of blacks OJ jurors and Dimocrat Yellow dog voters in her district. No doubt this district will vote for Hillary or Obama.

She’s a Ford. That gets her an automatic pass for any negative behavior. Or so it seems. A lush following in the footsteps of her convict brother. What a pair. Right now, it looks like Joe Ford is the sanest of the Fords, and that’s saying a LOT. The citizens of Tennessee better not be stuck footing the bill for this suit. If we are, then everything should be done to see that Ophelia is removed from office. What a major embarassment she is.
I always thought that the Wildhorse in Nashville was a honky tonk. If so, what was she doing there, other than getting sauced? She must have stood out like a sore thumb.

There are some decent souls in the Ford family, unfortunately they are not in politics.

I really feel sorry for them, what a curse. It’s not as if we get to choose who is born into our families and sometimes they are the kind of people you’d never have contact with if not for the family relationship connection.

Don’t count on the Ford dynasty coming to an end. They multiply like rabbits. And, the ignorant masses just keep on putting them back in power.

Here’s the obligatory explantion! Ophelia Ford is the aunt and sister of former U.S. Congressmen, Harold Ford Jr. and Sr.

I used to live in that district, and you can take it to the back that it is a Democrat district.
To: SmithL
Of course she wants the citizens of Tennessee to pay for it... her family has been making Tennessee pay for decades.
