All Ed or anybody running has to do is start talking about the 1982 bank failures in this state and the name Ford is quickly remembered along with at least a monthly article on an escapade of someone in the Ford family getting in trouble.
Persons, working persons lost their life savings in one of those failures. It was a state wide failure of United American Bank and Southern Industrial Banking Corp owned by two brothers named Jake and CH Butcher. They went to prison. Just about all officers involved went to prison. The reason Ford Sr escaped prosicution was thanks to the Clintons. Lamar Alexander was our governor during those failures so he would not be able to mention it. Let's find a better GOP canidate. Bryant, Duncan, or Blackburn sounds great. All are known state wide and respected.

Not to mention harold jr's uncle State sen john ford, his several out of wed lock kids, his fights with his drunk driving out of control soon to be ex wife; his pointing smoking "cell" phones er guns at truckers, his pulling a long gun on MLG & W workers. There is probably more. Then there is his speeding...be careful if you are going or coming from Nashville and sen ford is on the road. sen ford's dipping in the DayCare till.
BTW the ford women are feeling put upon by their males. Seems they don't respect their women. One sister wants the County Commission seat her brother that just died left open. They gave it to another ford brother instead. She will be on the ballot along with the newly installed brother.
