Same old, same old. Nothing
Same old, same old. Nothing in particular against Ingram, but aren't there any newer faces around?
I was going to vote for Billy, but not now with Ingram involved
First of all he has Mike Ragsdale following his campaign around, making introductions and now he brings in Ingram as the campaign manager? Why does he surround himself with all these bottom feeders? What would Ingram be doing if he wasn't on the federal payroll? Uberchamber payroll?
I wonder if he'll promote
I wonder if he'll promote Haslam in the same way as he promoted Universe Knoxville- "a four dimension experience."
but aren't there any newer
If you meant to say "newer, winning, faces around," then no. At least not any who can win in the minors and majors like Ingram can.

Remember the old days when the candidate was more important than the image?

I would be worried if I was
I would be worried if I was Haslam. Ramsey has a no nonsense team, they are young and hungry. Ingram is one of the best in the Country.
Haslam is my guy, but watch out for Ramsey. His team is wicked smart.
Ramsey is out of his league, I'd be more concerned about Wamp
Ramsey has gotten where he is in Tennessee by longevity, not by statewide support or governing ability and the issues they tinker around with in Upper East Tennessee will have no application or use in South Memphis/Shelby County and other strange places these candidates from East Tennessee will find themselves this year.
Wamp understands the socio-political issues in West Tennessee and get through some dialogue and some support along the way. Ramsey will be like a duck out of water in West Tennessee and will fall into the political alliances he's made in Nashville and roles he cannot fit into as a Wataugan.
I would be worried if I were
I would be worried if I were Haslam and Ramsey both...about Wamp.
He's proving he can raise money.
He's seems likes he all over the state and picking up momentum.
He's got more charisma in his left pinky than Haslam has in his entire body.
And someone has yet to answer this...how in God's name does Ramsey expect to raise $5 million to compete with out being able to raise money 10 out of the next 17 months? Corker couldn't even do that.
I wonder if Ramsey drops out before anyone.
Wamp has
Wamp has charisma?
Wwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Pretty damn funny.
slow news
Must be slow news day, every local media website has a life size picture of Ingram right now.
ingram having been on the
ingram having been on the board of edison schools (and alexander having been an investor) i suppose haslam will roll out a charter schools plan for the state. no locations yet in tennessee ..
I'm not convinced that Zach
I'm not convinced that Zach Wamp will stay in this race. Why would he want to give up his house seat to finish third in a statewide primary?
There's plenty of time for Wamp to walk away and stay in the House. I bet he does.
