Phil Bredesen, former TN governor, would have a real shot to win if he were their nominee. He served two terms and despite the conservative wave last fall, he probably would have won another. Luckily, the Rats aren’t smart enough to run an experienced businessman, former mayor, and governor who isn’t a radical liberal.

Bredesen is unknown outside of TN and would have zero chance against any Republican except another unknown like Huntsman.

Nooooo. Haven’t we had enough of that guy.

He was Governor of Tennessee. He had to be somewhat centrist. So do the Republicans. Lamar Alexander, and Bob Corker are examples of that.
He’s as left as any of them. His wife is a Hillary wannabe.

There are no decent Democrats. Anywhere.

Its their ideology. Not their standard bearer.

But if they want to tear themselves apart, I’ll go for that.
