hahaha! John Jay Hooker is now (and was in '98) considered a joke candidate with no real stature in either the Dem Party or TN politics.
... and yet he still managed to win two counties more than Jim Bryson's 2006 total of none. Says a lot about Bryson, doesn't it?
It says that Tennessee has two counties that will vote for a Democrat no matter what, but no counties that will vote for a Republican no matter what - unless you count the numerous people I talked to that thought Bredesen was the Republican candidate
Then it says some Tennesseans are too dumb to read the ballot?
