Here is Todd's analysis:
11. TENNESSEE (Open-R) Bill Frist is retiring Last Ranking: 13
Another month and another slew of bad articles with the name "Ford" in it. It's interesting, in this season of "juniors" all over Senate ballots (Bob Casey, Tom Kean, etc.), the only "junior" who asks that he be referred to as "junior" in the media is Harold. Republicans clearly believe that moderates in their party will never vote for a Ford; it's the only explanation for why there hasn't been more attempts to shrink the GOP field.
