  •  Isn't this a self-fulfilling prophecy? (2+ / 0-)

    Tennessee is incapable of electing anybody other than anti-liberals?

    Once a state is branded as red by supporting a Republican presidential candidate, it can never elect progressive (or even moderate) officials?

    That's apparently the conventional wisdom. But I'm not giving up on Tennessee for eternity just because it's currently branded "red."

    A liberal is a conservative who's been hugged.

      For the time being it is red. And frankly, today in 2006, it's not going to elect a Barbara-Boxer style Democrat. Maybe eventually it might be more friendly to the types of candidates that people here like, but this year isn't that that point.
