1. I'm not surprised that the teabaggers decided to have their little party in Tennessee because
Tennessee and Oklahoma seem to be states with some of the worst Obama racist crap. No offense to any DU'ers from those states. I'm certainly not talking about the Dems that live there and Dems live everywhere just like there are Republicans in Vermont, Massachusetts, New York, etc.

The Tennessee GOP was one of the worst toward Michelle Obama.

I just read this in Dowd's column in tomorrows paper on Harold Ford and it seems pretty damn true:

Ford said he and his pretty blond wife, Emily, a marketing expert, were married in 2008 after his racially charged run for the Senate in Tennessee. They have made her apartment their official home.

“My wife decided after the ’08 election,” he said. “There was so much bad racial stuff out of Tennessee on Obama. I’m in an interracial marriage. I don’t want to subject my wife to this, and I want to start a family. I think my marriage is more accepted here than it would be in Tennessee.


I'm not a Ford fan but I don't think there is much question that there was "so much bad racial stuff out of Tennessee on Obama."

2. I suspect (but have no proof) that most of the people there were not locals.
