If Cruz wins by less than double digits, I’ll be sorely disappointed.

Tenn has a lot of smart folks with a lot of common sense. Marsha will win...

True, but why has Nashville become the leftist "San Francisco" of the state?

Nashville was never Republican except for a brief time during Reconstruction. Nashville never experienced the kind of politicized racial division in the ‘60s and ‘70s that pushed many of the Whites into the GOP and they stuck with the Democrats (unlike in Memphis where the Whites went GOP and Knoxville and Chattanooga, which were already GOP-leaning). It did vote for Nixon in ‘72, Reagan in 1984 and Bush Sr. in 1988, but that was the last time they voted that way for President. The suburbs are GOP, though.

Marsha has been leading fron day one. She held a 5 point margin before the Kavanaugh scam was foisted upon our Republic.

Headline: "Taylor Swiftboats Blackburn".

Well now, just how did that work out?

Hmm .......

Hey Taylor, can we pay you to visit another dozen states to perform your Political Twerk act again?

Frankly, the BK thing probably killed him as well. IN his case, in part because he said he’d have voted to confirm, which pretty much means the rabid left will stop supporting him, and he really needed ALL of their support, in addition to peeling off a good chunk of independents and republicans.

Re: “Marsha has been leading from day one.”

Sorry, that's not correct.

Bredesen led in six of the first eight polls from December through September.

The last two polls - taken after or during the Kavanaugh confirmation in October - show Blackburn in the lead.

Blackburn for Former is a huge upgrade.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Gotta win by the Margin of Fraud.

In case you haven't heard, Bredesen, who pretends to be a moderate Democrat, has started claiming he would have voted for Kavanaugh - LOL!

...And now Taylor Swift is catching Hell from the SJW Left for supporting a candidate who supports Kavanaugh!

Welcome to the NFL, Chicky-poo. You deserve this.

Usually it takes a couple of weeks to go from Hero Of The Revolution to a Stalinist show-trial. For Taylor Swift it took about ten minutes.

That is really funny.

Sounds like the plot of a Franz Kafka novel I read decades ago: “The Trial.”

The same reason that many other conservative states have experienced the creeping communist crud in many of their cities that house state governments, universities, ski resorts and other sports, entertainment, tourism, etc.

Communism has never had any other purpose than to destroy human civilization. This is the only characteristic they share with Islam, but it is sufficient for their alliance.
