Ford Jr. is working four times as hard as Corker

I just got my second call in two weeks regarding Harold Ford Jr.

Last week was a recorded call from the man himself - complete with an apology for calling during the dinner hour.

Just now, I received a call from a "Tennessean who supports Harold Ford Jr."

I told him that my husband and I, my parents, my husband's parents and my sister-in-law were all voting for Ford and that I already, thank you, had a Ford sign in my yard and a bumper sticker on my window.

He was pleased as punch.

Now, how many calls have I received from Corker? None.

Also, keep in mind that I HAVE voted in some Republican primaries (lesser of evils, you know - in fact, I voted for Corker over the neo-con and the fundie nut in this year's primaries), so they DO have my information.

Ford's people just believe in him more: that's evident by the fact that REAL people have Ford signs in their yards and the only place I see Corker signs (well, a lot of them) are at the Pilot gas station and in open fields. Very few REAL people have Corker signs in their yards in this allegedly Republican town.

1. I'm watching the debate on C-Span now.

I'm in Ohio, but I love watching Ford in these debates. He's very good.

3. Me too.

Why is Corker trying to sound so much like a Democrat?

5. There is this one move he does with his hands...

like he's measuring something. But the movement doesn't go with what he's talking about. LOL!

7. I just saw the very end but Ford is terrific

I thought Corker would score a hit with saying Ford's dad lobbies him but Ford turned it back on him. Corker looked small for attacking Ford's family. Very smooth.
