This morning on Charlie Sykes Sunday show a minority journalist lost it when this came up. It was blue-on-blue conflict.

"Sorry minorities, we know this is supposed to be your district, but we don't want to leave our seats of Power. Vote for us and we'll take care of you, Thanks!"

This is just blatant racist law.

I am betting that all of these districts will have candidates roughly the same age as Dr. Kings' children when he made his most famous speech (1963) that contained these words; "I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

Irony, no?

Yeah, that's about right.

Sandy "Pants on Fire" Pasch?

She got that nickname by telling so many lies in her race against Sen. Alberta Darling in last summer's attempted recall that they did a video about her.

Pants on fire

Opportunity for the Tea Party. Surely there must be some folks in those districts not locked into the RAT mentality.

The Federal Voting Rights Act requires states to insure that minorities have proportional representation in state legislative bodies. Compliance with this mandate means states must create legislative districts where the majority demographic is comprised of racial minorities.

What??????

The Republicans should find and run an African-American in the 10th Assembly District. If Pasch knocks off the incumbent in the primary, the voters may vote for the Republican.
