Ford is smart, smooth, and dangerous. Looks bad for the GOP in Tennessee. I don't think so. He's definitely liberal and Tennessee is not.
I doubt if being black is a plus.

Cant be a plus... Blacks already vote 95% Democrat, any non-brie eating white surely is going to know this guy is too liberal for their tastes. I foresee a close win by Lamar! Hopefully we can find a real strong conservative.

His father, Harold Ford the elder, held his congressional seat until it was time for his son to "inherit it." His father was as crooked as could be, and scandal followed him, but like Bill Clinton and most of the political class, he never paid for anything. Throughout Tennessee the Fords do not have a very good name, but in Memphis they are a powerhouse.
