Harold Ford Jr. Weighs a Challenge to Gillibrand

[Neil]

I approve, for a democrat I like Ford.

I'm not entirely sure what his claim to fame is. Is a New York Senate seat just a prize to hand out nowadays?

Pretty much.  The value seems to be pretty much nil.

 Was not aware Ford was on the wider political radar.

I have to wonder if y'all know what you are getting with him, though.

[Eddie Teach]

Most likely somebody who tells people what they want to hear, says he believes what people want him to believe, and exudes charisma whenever he chooses.

WTG, Tim.  I bet you endorsed his attempt to become Speaker of the House.  Ehhole.

I don't see why you think you know more about him than a teacher in Rhode Island.

Because I went to law school at Ole Miss, and Harold Ford, Jr., was one of the biggest figures in Tennessee politics, particularly in Memphrica?

I was sarcastic.

Faeelin was obviously being sarcastic.

EDIT: He beat me to it.
