Who NOT To Vote For
If you are voting in the Senate race in TN, I can't tell you which of 2 Republican candidates I endorse, but what I can tell you is who I absolutely, under no circumstance, WILL NOT endorse, and who I feel you 100% SHOULD NOT vote for.
That man is Bob Corker.
You've heard his commercials. He talks about how he "reduced the size of Government," and has caused taxes to be the lowest in Chattanooga since the 50's, and how he is "100% pro-life," and rebukes senators for raising their own salaries while in office.
I'm here to tell you that that is a load of CRAP.
Here is the TRUTH about Bob Corker.
