Developing NYT LEAD WED.... Harold Ford Jr. is serious about challenging Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand for the Democratic nomination, against wishes of party leaders... Developing... ***'If I am elected senator from New York, Harry Reid will not instruct me how to vote'***...
An insider says 'There has been no decision' about a run...
Hugh and series.
I’m getting the popcorn popper ready, just in case.
>’If I am elected senator from New York, Harry Reid will not instruct me how to vote’***...
Don’t worry about that. Dingy Harry wont win Nevada..
Harry won’t need to tell you how to vote, because you are a Rat and will vote with him.
Yea, Reid will be long gone before Ford will be sworn in.....HA!
Ole Ford Jr wont take orders from Reid but his homeboy Obowma will be giving it to him whether he likes it or not..
Demcorats ready to lynch another uppity colored.
***Retread Loser Liberal Establishmnet Candidate Alert***
What’s the difference, Ford is just as whacked as she is...
Hairy will like Ford because he is “light skinned and does not speak in a negro dialect.”
I would take Ford over Obama as President in a second. Ford’s dad is a crook, Ford Jr is a lib but he is light years better than Obama.
Rat fight!
The Dims have already dissed David Paterson by telling him not to run and now there’re telling Harold Ford not to run.
Seems like the Democrats are a bit prejudiced. Or maybe they just like black people who are “light-skinned with no Negro dialect”.
Shouldn’t he be getting someone coffee or something?
Harold Ford Jr. would fall in line immediately.
Who’s he trying to kid?
‘Hairy will like Ford because he is “light skinned and does not speak in a negro dialect.”
You beat me to the joke.
But isn’t Frod “light skinned and lacking the Negro dialect?”
He and Gillibrand have historically not been very different politically.....moderately pro-gun and anti-abortion, moderately anti-tax and pro-budget responsibility, ultimately representing “purple” constiutencies and diving the “middle way.”
He’s no Hilllary Clinton and as pissed as I would have been a New Yorker for Hill’ to move in and set up stakes.......I would be triply upset over him to try the same trick.
Gillibrand is as you can possibly get in a Dem from NY..........and she’s a New Yorker!
Ford is undoubtedly a natural born American and over 35.
All that stuff went out the window when Bobby was elected senator.
