    They must have offered Harold Ford a better job.

    They didn't have to offer him a job because he had no chance of winning. :)

    Offering a job in exchange for a political act, i.e. dropping out of a race, is illegal.

    Depending on who offered him the job, it's possible someone (possibly Rahm Emmanuel and/or Obama himself, depending on how important the job was) may have committed a crime.
