« Livin' Large | Main | Soak the Rich! » September 19, 2005Lunchtime LinksA few political links for you today... Memphis Mike Hollihan looks at the possibility of fraud in Ophelia Ford's state senate special election win in Memphis. Ford is U.S. Senate candidate Harold Ford's aunt, and the sister of disgraced, indicted and virtually-certainly-corrupt former state Sen. John Ford, who is Harold Ford Jr.'s uncle. ... Bob Krumm think's Ophelia's win is bad news for Harodl Ford Jr. Matt White wants to know why Tennessee Gov. Phil Bredesen is stalling on calling a special election in the state House district recently vacated by a Republican. Bredesen wouldn't be stalling so the interim representative appointed by the county commission - a Democrat - can stay in office a while longer, would he? Perhaps Bredesen is too busy letting people die - Sharon Cobb says she has "been able to confirm four deaths as a direct result of Governor Bredesen's cuts to TennCare." That's not going to be good for the re-election campaign... Or maybe Bredesen was too busy writing on his blog about the reason he ran for governor. It wasn't to fix the budget or fix TennCare after all... And, finally, out of leftfield today: Cindy Sheehan has gone nutso - referring to New Orleans as an "occupied" city. The Left, by the way, thinks Cindy Sheehan is sane and that we ought to be taking foriegn policy advice from her. Comments
