Ford Out Of Senate Race

Even though he could TOTALLY beat incumbent Senator Kirsten Gillibrand in a primary contest-really, don’t you believe him?-Tennessee transplant Harold Ford, Jr., has decided not to run against her, reports the New York Times. Ford has a piece explaining his decision in tomorrow’s Op-Ed section of the paper, which is apparently where people go now when they want to pretend that they dropped out of a race for reasons other than the fact that they had no chance of winning.
