Yes, they're both pretty boys.
But for Harold Ford, who's suddenly claiming that he's really a NY liberal, to now allege that he's really like Republican Senator-elect Scott Brown, really takes some chutzpah.
[W]hile I disagree with Brown about most issues of public policy, I absolutely agree that a United States senator has to put the people first when making decisions.Oh, so you disagree with Brown about most everything, and now claim to be a raving liberal who's pro-choice and even pro- gay marriage, but at the same time you'd like us to believe that you're going to be independent of the Democratic party? Huh? So you are a liberal Democrat or you're not? And is this "putting people first" thing the way you're explaining away your massive flip-flops on social issues in just the past two years? Whatever the people want, Harold Ford will flip-flip in favor of?
I have made it very clear that if I run for the U.S. Senate, and if I am fortunate enough to be elected, I will be an independent Democrat who puts the people of New York before the politicians in Albany and Washington.
All the time. Every time.
