Just heard a report on Fox:

Bill Clinton, at the direction of the White House, convinced Kendrick Meek to drop out of the Senate race in Florida. Meek, the African American Democrat candidate, later changed his mind and stayed in. The story is confirmed by both Meek and Charlie Crist.

This is not the first time that Democrats have tried to muscle out their Black candidate.

I thought we were supposed to start being about the content of character, not the color of skin. Operation Black Storm? Never heard of it. Give me conservatives and I don’t care what color they are.

Interesting. Curiously enough, the publisher of the local “Black” magazine in Albuquerque (3% of the population) endorsed the Republican, because as he said “John Barela worked with our community before he was running for office and doesn’t take our vote for granted.” This coming from a guy who said he is a big Obama fan.

Oh this is the ‘throw the sink at em’ tactic right before the election, the ol, divide and conquer BS of the progressives. AGITATING FLUCKERS

Most Republicans I know are going to withhold support of any black folks running for office until they have a record. Even then, look at Colin Powell. It's tough to believe that all these black Republicans are from that small percentage that didn't support Barry Soetoro. They well could be, but it'll take a track record of some sort that shows race isn't their major concern before people are going to be willing to support them.

It's a sad state of affairs, but it wasn't white folks who voted 95+ percent for the white guy in the last election and in favor of someone who opposes a huge number of things the "black community" has for decades insisted were critical to them.

Regards

I have no idea about the pub party but me personally, I’ve donated several times to Col. West, and to Charlotte Bergman, and Star Parker, and to BAMPAC, and I think to Ryan Frazier as well....in years past, I’ve donated to Allen Keyes and Deb Honeycutt...

Sounds like an organization we should support—more than the RNC.

Color trumped anything for both of them.

Sick.

maybe you don't run in the best crowds but I don't know anybody at all that wouldn't vote for a black candidate without hesitation if they believed in the same politics....

I smell lots and lots of rats running around today....

No black conservatives running in any of the races I can vote for. Lots of black liberals but they seem to prefer the democrat plantation.
