This is one race the Democrats really need to lose. The old “moderate Democrat” line they used in the South for three decades is about done. It’s how Al Gore made his career. Bredesen losing after spending a ton of money would be really sweet.
I would imagine Bredesen is not spending Tennessee money but a lot of Hollywood and New York money. Just like Jones in Alabama, he would represent the interests of those places and their donors far more in the Senate than he would his home state.
I live in TN and am disgusted by the number of conservatives who love Bredesen. I drive to work every day through a small town and the Bredesen yard signs are everywhere. The state is red, but we sent RINOs Corker and Alexander to D.C...smh
