Why Harry Reid and Mr Ford appear to be having a curiously timed public spat… .http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2010/jan/13/ford-jr-tells-new-york-times-hell-be-more-independ/….With all his problems Reid has time to harass Mr Ford to stay out , and Ford gives quick hostile reply . Do they not get along or is this kabuki theatre damage control? They are both smart to know people won't see Ford the same way after what Reid said …so lets have a public fight that makes illusion we are at war. We know Reid makes cynacle race calculations when backing a candidate. Reid may believe a white blond female with proven socialist voting record cannot hold the seat . However, a "light skinned negro without dialect" who makes an illution of being central will draw out the minority voters and pro choice repulbicans Reid sees as too racist to vote for pure bred " dark negros with dialect". No offense intended. I just see Harry Ried as proven beyond doubt to makes these kind of ugly calculations and I don't like it one bit.

Well what planet have you been living on the last week ? You don't understand why Harold Ford Jr would be right for the NY senate seat….I am saying he is just the kind of man Harry Reid is looking for.

I am unable to watch the YouTube video you link to, but what the heck does this post have to do with race? You realize – or maybe you don't – that you loose credibility when posting these types of comments?

Why Harold Ford Jr makes a fine addition to Harry Ried's Mulattocracy of Obama, Eric Holder, Julian Bond, Colin Powell, Merve Dymally, Johnny Rollinson, and Donna Brazil. …..The Tragic Mulatto is actually a literary term from late 19th century works, quite different from " magic negro " type characters of Mark Twain or Robinson Caruso…. Dirty Harry must have enjoyed reading this genre as a boy…. .http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragic_mulatto
