:) There IS hope in America. I knew it! The Left just tries to hide it! Hope is so unfavorable you know...
I think the same flying pig just went by in Fenton too. Geez, who woulda thunk Carl Officer would do this, unless it's just for publicity.
Even if it is just for publicity, you'd think more black politicians would go for it. Where's the percentage in carrying Jesse Jackson's water for the next 20 years?
HUGH SERIES!
A Black, Democrat mayor, in EAST ST LOUIS of all places!?!?
I smell a landslide!
Dittos to all Democrats for Bush. It's a great start.
Whoa!!!!!! This is a jaw-dropper!!!!!
Yes indeed. Wonder if the Post will pick up this story. Nothing yet. Found the following, which is what I have come to expect:
Black voters will draw scrutiny
"Republicans are planning mass disruptions in St. Louis County, because they want to suppress the African-American turnout," [U.S. Rep. William Lacy] Clay [D-St. Louis] said. "It's a pattern here that's taking place around the country."
total shock, here in st louis proper carl officer has always been ridiculed. i wil from here fort stand up for the man WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW infinitum.
Whaaaaaaat?? The St. Louis Pravda is not covering this? I'm shocked, shocked! I tell you.
LOL. I'm not sure they are thinking outside the unionbox as much as they are thinking inside the NRA box,the pro man-woman marriage box, and the catholics anti abortion box. LOL. But I think this county may just go BUSH/Cheney.
During the last election the local democrats were running on a platform of no new taxes. They are way more conservative than the national party.
kinda late in the game is it not? Welcomed though.
African
Well I am glad to hear this. Too bad this is only a few days out from the election.

Yes they are. Unfortunately many uninformed people think this means the national party is a mirror to our local politicians, or that their union leaders are probably right. The union voting box is too big and too corrupt for my comfort.
I hope we go Bush/Cheney and I think we will, but it's too close for my comfort.
Hopefully it shows an underlying avalanche of support for Bush in unexpected quarters.
I hope so too. I often think that Bush will win by a comfortable margin. Just looking at the questions of leadership etc. it seems people support Bush. So regardless of the horse race polls (POLLAGANDA) I think that Bush is really ahead.
If he's a third generation African-American, what were his great-grandparents?
==============================
LOL! Good point! But, let's see here...hum...tracing back the PC time line I'd guess that after three generations of African-American(s) his ancestors were...let's see ...ah, yes! Here it is! They were "Negro". A PC term running somewhere between the 1870s to the 1940s or so.
Maybe they mean a third-generation entrepreneur?
