Harold Ford Jr. fresh

Harold Ford, Jr., fresh off his first major speech as the Chair of the DLC, will be joining us at TPMCafe this week to discuss his work and the policy initiatives he’ll be pushing during the ’08 primaries. Should be an interesting debate, the announcement alone started a pretty heated thread.

His visit is a part of our ongoing effort to bring interesting people to TPMCafe to engage the readers and the other writers all week with a specific argument. In the last two months, Matt Stoller, Chalmers Johnson, Amanda Marcotte, Jeff Faux, Marshall Ganz, and our own Mark Schmitt and E.J. Graff have all sparked conversations (and many more have joined in). Next week we’ll have TNR Senior Editor Jon Cohn on his new book Sick.

What we want to know from you is: who would you like to hear from at TPMCafe? What issues would you like discussed? Email talk(at)talkingpointsmemo.com. We’re all ears.
