10. Now see, this is something that concerns me. *Bring out the troll pics LOL*
Seriously, though, we talk about giving Obama a blue Hill to work with but jeez louise he needs people who are in his camp so-to-speak or he's still going to have people blocking him up there. *sigh*

12. Harold Ford is limited by his cranial capacity...

The guy obviously kowtows to a right-leaning constituency and tries to say anything that will promote his own image and gain support from the panel, but I think that most of his comments miss the mark because he's just not that bright. He struggles for anything intelligent to say.

Ford is an empty suit, only with less starch and more need of being altered.

13. What a dick. Ed Rollins-Republican was WAY more
Edited on Wed Aug-27-08 07:43 PM by Phx_Dem
complimentary and our "historic" nomination and about Barack, specifically. He even said (paraphrased),"a man who lost a congressional race 8 years ago is now on track to be the next President of the United States. Not because he served as Governor as Bill Clinton did, but because of his smarts." He talked about how exciting it was for the country, etc. Harold's all, "an enthusiastic vote doesn't mean any more than a non-enthusiastic vote." Duh, Harold. Enthusiastic voters tend to actually vote, whereas unenthusiastic voters oftemtimes just stay home, you dumbass.

I don't mind someone stating a painful fact, if it's appropriate, but Harold never states facts, he's just very negative. All the time negative. Jeeze, no wonder he lost his bid for the Senate.

15. To answer your question...

Harold Eugene Ford, Jr. (born May 11, 1970) is the current chairman of the Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) and is a former member of the United States House of Representatives from Tennessee. Ford represented the state's 9th congressional district, centered in Memphis, from 1997 to 2007. Ford did not seek reelection to his House seat in 2006 when he unsuccessfully sought the Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Bill Frist. He is a member of the Democratic Party and was part of the (((((Blue Dog Coalition)))).

18. When it comes to Harold, all you can say is...
"mainly because half the people I was with believed it until I explained the situation to them"
