Harold Ford not playing Leslie's game...

Leslie Blitzer was trying everything he could to rattle Ford to no avail.

1. Any details?

Or should I guess this began with some obscenities?

3. It was a segment on CNN with Wolf Blitzer interviewing

Harold Ford, Jr. about Ford crashing Corker's presser the other day and other matters.

Ford kept his composure as Wolf continually asked him pointed questions designed to elicit foot-in-mouth disease.

6. Ok, what's confusing everyone...

Ford is the Democratic candidate, and Corker is the Republican candidate, and I'm pretty sure I heard it was Corker who crashed Ford's presser.

7. Ford crashed Corker's press conference

I live in TN and have seen it reported on the news a number of times.

9. Ok, I'm hopelessly confused

I'll shut up now and just find out the box score later from people who know what the hell's going on. Sorry all.

I will look for a video and if someone puts one up, I'll post it here.

5. Simply can't stand "Wolf" and his overdramatic delivery ...

"New! What we're working on Heeeeere IN THE SITUATON ROOM"

8. That monotonal drone get's to me after about 30 minutes,

then I just have to turn the channel...unless something is coming I want to see.

My thing about the Ford interview was Wolf's repeated attempts to trip Ford up and getting nothing but a calm and respectful disposition.

I live in Texas - 17. The Mid-Terms are fairly boring here so I've been watching other close races around the country and making calls for MoveOn.org to CT and TN and not only do I like Ford and despise Corker, lots of Tennesseans like him too and are excited at the prospect of him becoming their newest senator.

Hopefully, he will.

10. And you can beat that if Corker had done it to Ford, the press

would praise the Republican for being "ballsy."
