A.C. KLEINHEIDER thinks that I’m overly positive on Harold Ford, Jr.’s chances, and that the Ford family will cause him problems.

He may be right. I haven’t written about the Jake Ford / Steve Cohen race because Steve Cohen gave me great tickets to see John Fogerty’s first “comeback” concert when he opened the Centerfield tour in Memphis, and thus earned my undying loyalty. Hence, a conflict of interest.

Plus, the WSJ shows Corker up 5% now. It’s a close race, and it’ll probably stay one.
