Corker/Ford Confrontation: October Surprisingly Bad Campaigning

So, Harold Ford, the Democrat running against Bob Corker for the Tennessee Senate seat has, by all accounts, run a really good campaign.

Instapundit has a round-up of links with plenty of reaction. What was it someone said about the Democrats never missing an opportunity to miss an opportunity?
