Harold Ford Jr Opts Out of New York Senate Race
Former Tennessee Congressman Harold Ford Jr. has apparently decided that a run for the Senate in his new state of New York is not in his plans for the Fall of 2010. According to the New York Times, Ford believes he could have won the nomination over Kirsten Gillibrand but saw that victory coming at a great price to his party because a tough primary race would have drained financial resources and improved the chances that a Republican could claim the seat. I guess its back to weekend punditry and Merrill Lynch for the “telegenic” Lefty...
“I’ve examined this race in every possible way, and I keep returning to the same fundamental conclusion: If I run, the likely result would be a brutal and highly negative Democratic primary — a primary where the winner emerges weakened and the Republican strengthened,” Mr. Ford wrote in an opinion article that was posted on The New York Times Web Site on Monday night and appeared in Tuesday’s issue of the newspaper.
The possibility of a Senate campaign in New York by the telegenic Mr. Ford, who has been working as a vice chairman of Merrill Lynch and a political commentator on NBC since moving to New York in 2006, had riveted New York’s political world and touched off a furious behind-the-scenes effort to keep him out of the race.
