To beat Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) that is. They (and others) faced off to succeed Harold Ford, Jr. Cohen won. Why is she running again? Well when it comes to issues, she won't say.
Talking about her differences with Cohen "is something that we really would rather not get into right now ... It will come, but it's just not going to come right now"
Yeah, that should inspire the trust of the voters. What will she say? That she wants to change "the face" of the district. Hmmm - and since she's black and Cohen's white ... that's one classy lady. Throw in that she and her backers seem to be campaigning on homophobia and misinformation about the Hate Crimes bill, and I really, really hope Cohen beats her like Obama beat Alan Keyes. However, I fear that that's not going to happen.

Cohen destroyed her in the primary last night, 79%-19%. Yay.
