Love is progress, whether so-called progressives want to embrace it or not. Her election is a reflection, yea an extension of the Rev.. Martin Luther King Jr's dream. The daughter of Haitian immigrants, born in Brooklyn, living in Utah, a state that is less than 1% black, judged by the content of her character. And because of that, she is coming to Washington. If that is not what the dream is all about then we truly have lost our way.
As Democrats spend the remainder of the week infighting after losing the Senate, licking wounds from gubernatorial defeats in blue/purple states such as Illinois and Wisconsin, and searching for survivors in what can only be described as a midterm slaughter, I can't help but wonder if the victor with the most influence on 2016 is Love.

Mia has the potential to be a rising star in the Republican Party. Few people have a more positive attitude than she does......let's hope DC does not change that.
We Love Mia Love!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is smart, well spoken, beautiful! A true rising star of the GOP!
Amen ....
May our Nation Shine Like the Diamond our Nation is! May our Nation’s People Shine, for this Nation’s People are Diamonds too. May God Bless and Keep US!!!
With Love in the HOR and Ernst in the US Senate, there are FINALLY some women in DC who've earned our respect.
The media would be wise not to be mean to her. I think she is going to be the adored little sister / daughter to just about all conservative males. And we know what kind of butt kicking that can get you.
She is a Mormon.
Mia is married to a white man.
Interracial marriages are common these days.
The Lovings in Virginia in the 1960s had to fight hard to overturn the bigoted ban that kept apart. They faced jail because they were in love and marriage in defiance of the law.
America has come a long way since then.
It is progress, but Mr. Granderson still believes in the lies and tropes strewn by the Dems over the last 50 year. I sincerely hope the scales drop from HIS eyes. It seems he really struggled with himself to write this essay.
“For if the sexist/racist/anti-immigration narrative that has long dogged the GOP can, at the very least, be challenged by her presence at a campaign, what will Democrats use to fire up low-information liberals? ... Not to mention that Love (along with South Carolina’s Tim Scott, the first black senator elected in the South since Reconstruction) is an affront to those Republican voters who do harbor racist thoughts.”
Dogged the GOP? Why is that?
Republicans who harbor racist thoughts? Playing the race card himself.
Maybe he can mature himself.
We heard you the firt time.
But it is mitch’s turn.

what’s cnn?
Does that disqualifier her the same way some think her skin color or gender does?
How interesting that the ship of state has gone full circle in such a short time. Blacks are being elected as Republicans and Democrats are naming a black woman named Lynch to head the justice department. I can imagine the headlines if Republicans had .............!
I must point it out that Mia and her family are Caribbean blacks. They have a strong sense of fsmily and conservative culture. This is quite different from gangsta rappers. She can it be clubbed with those people. Many whites can be clubbed with the gangsta rappers but not Mia
We Love Mia Love!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is smart, well spoken, beautiful! A true rising star of the GOP!
Nice looking family.
