senatorial campaign committee

Today is going to be a very interesting day in this very long journey for the Democratic nomination.

Governor Phil Bredesen of Tennessee led the charge for superdelegates to declare their intentions by the beginning of June, so I suspect he will declare as soon as the polls close in South Dakota. (I have a call into his office for him to confirm or deny that)

From CNN:

I thought that Al Gore was more or less out of the game these days. I thought he doesn’t want to get involved with petty politics.

Bob Tuke is is trying to shake down Democrats again today in an email. This time, he castigates Lamar Alexander for cozying up to Big Oil. And what can you do about this outrage?

"Help send a message to Lamar Alexander—we're not going to let you get away with this political peddling—by donating $25 dollars today." Tuke goes on to slap Alexander for "foolish pandering."

Of the 17 US Senate seats listed by the DSCC as having a possible chance of swinging towards the Democrats...Tennessee is not among them. Alaska is. Texas is. Even Mississippi is. But Tennessee has been written off by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee led by Chuck Schumer.
