Lightweight.

Actually, not.

Do NOT underestimate this guy. I'd put money on him.

I'd do the same if I were a betting man. Oh wait, I am...Let me call my political bookie...

I've watched Ford in the media. He's very good in front of a camera -- photogenic and well-spoken. Underestimating this guy would be a HUGE mistake.

Young Ford has never spent a day working in the private sector on his own, and Tennesseans are no longer fond of career politicians, as evidenced by the Gore defeat in Tennessee and the fact that our current Senators are a doctor and a lawyer/actor. As the stink in Nashville over taxes and the budget continues, voters are going to be reminded of the trouble brought by unaccountable career politicians. Only a dull, unfocused campaign by the GOP will lose this Senate seat.

Intellectural lightweight. Crafty?
