Lenard and Poskevich, both tea-party candidates, appear to be the only opponents to Corker who are serious about running. They’ve questioned the incumbent’s fat campaign contributions from JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs when Corker is a key member of the Senate Banking Committee that oversees these institutions.

Indeed, Corker has raised more than $11 million; Lenard and Poskevich, less than $100,000.

Though his ties to Wall Street are worrisome, Sen. Corker has been an effective senator, building expertise in foreign policy and showing he can work with Democrats when compromise is needed for the country to move forward.

I enjoyed Corker grilling the UAW guy during the auto bailout hearings.

The one thing to be careful of is flushing him in favor of an inexperienced person who can’t handle the media onslaught.

We did that in Indiana with old Lugar and got an Obama supporter in the general for 6 long years.

Yeah, I don’t see any problem there...

Corker won in 2012 when we had two challengers in the primary - stupid x infinity. Not gonna make that mistake when we primary Lamar!
