The New York Times just reported that Harold Ford will not run for the Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s senate seat.
“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 weak-ened and the Republican strengthened,” Mr. Ford wrote in an opinion article to be published in Tuesday’s edition of The New York Times.
I refuse to do anything that would help
Republicans win a Senate seat in New
York, and give the Senate majority to the
Republicans.”
