Going After the Big Guns

The National Republican Senatorial Committee is fighting back against charges from Team Ford:

Washington-The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) issued the following statement in response to Harold Ford's "unofficial" blog's preposterous charge the NRSC is "lying" about Ford's liberal record:

"Congressman Ford has realized his record is too liberal to win statewide in Tennessee and thus his minions have resorted to calling those who bring attention to it 'liars.' Whether he is proud of it or not, Mr. Ford's record is what it is, one well suited for a Memphis congressional district or statewide in Massachusetts, just not for Tennessee," said NRSC spokesman Dan Ronayne. "It is unlikely Tennesseans will be electing someone to the left of Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton no matter how loudly and falsely Ford and his allies object."


"Team Ford" is a 19 year-old blogger who has put up a blog but has nothing to do with the Ford campaign.

The NRSC must be very nervous about this race. A couple months ago they put up the "Fancy Ford" website, and now they feel the need to respond to the blogs of teenagers. They must have some poll data the rest of us aren't privy to. Touchy, touchy.

UPDATE: Maybe the NRSC read this Zogby poll.
