Trump-Bredesen votersIf Bredesen has a chance to win Tennessee, people like 59-year old Army veteran Ray Taylor hold the key. "I guess I don't have as much apologizing to do for the national party as someone else might," Bredesen said. Bredesen, when speaking about the Democratic Party, sometimes uses the term "they," a way to put verbal distance between himself and the party. "What voters are looking for, in most cases, is just someone who will be respectful of their concerns and isn't bought into this bicoastal view of what the Democratic Party is," Bredesen said.
