Kirsten Gillibrand in the Democratic primary, many of us knew it was only a matter of time before this DLC snake would set about re-inventing himself as somehow palatable to a more liberal audience. Though Ford has not formally announced his intentions seem clear.

The Albany Project has the details:

Well, that didn't take long: per the NY Post's Fred Dicker, Harold Ford Jr. now supports marriage equality.

"He supports gay marriage, in the interest of fairness and equality," Ford spokesman Davidson Goldin told The Post.

Ford backed up that statement himself this morning on the "Today Show."

Host Matt Lauer asked, "So you're now in favor of same sex marriage?"

"Civil unions and same-sex marriage, yes," Ford said.

The dexterity of this switch in positions would make any garden snake proud.

NJ Supreme Court's 2006 decision denouncing it, even if he was at the time pursuing a Senate seat in Tennessee.

So you can pick the Junior you want, I guess.
