FOX BUTTERFIELD, CALL YOUR OFFICE: Despite Taylor Swift’s Endorsement of Bredesen, Blackburn Up Big in TN.

Related: Taylor Swift Should Put Her Tax Money Where Her Mouth Is. Why claim residency in Tennessee, especially if, in Taylor Swift’s words, red-state policies don’t represent ‘MY Tennessee values?’

UPDATE: Perhaps this headline explains why Blackburn is ahead: Bredesen Spokesman: ‘Gun Nuts’ Are ‘Biggest Terrorist Organization on The Planet.’

To paraphrase the legendary fictitious rock manager Ian Faith, Bredesen really shouldn’t worry about it though — it’s not like Tennessee is a big Second Amendment state.

(Bumped; classical reference in headline.)
