Democrat Harold Ford Jr. looked for votes in his opponent's hometown Monday while Republican Bob Corker planned to visit every major Tennessee city on the last full day before the election.

Ford started his day meeting with Chattanooga public works employees in the city where his opponent was mayor until last year.

He vowed to improve health care for working people, and then declared: "Let's go beat this little guy!" - a reference to Corker's height, which Corker says is 5-feet-6 1/2 inches.

Corker campaigned with Sens. John McCain of Arizona, Saxby Chambliss of Georgia and Bill Frist and Lamar Alexander.

"They represent the values of this state," Corker said of the Republican senators. "They represent the way this state wants to see our country go."
