(First Diary, so if I screw up the formatting, please inform me how to fix it.)
Here in TN we are having a primary for Republican candidate to replace the outgoing Senate Majority Leader. I live in TN-2, a congressional district that hasn't elected a Democrat since 1854. Here in TN, the East is (obviously) very Republican, the West is a Democratic stronghold and the middle is, well, neither. If you are going to win a statewide election as a Republican, you must carry a huge majority in the East.

Harold Ford will win the Democratic Nomination hands down. He has dubbed the Republicans as the three stooges (personally I find this rather insulting, I like the three stooges and consider them to be harmless. Not so, these Republicans). Detestables 1 and 2 are former 1994 Reps Van Hilleary and Ed Bryant. Neither Van nor Ed consider the other to be in the race. They are both running against former Chattanooga Mayor Bob Corker.

So, why do I want someone to get my mail? Read More
