What the republicans really need is an avenue of communication DIRECTLY to the black (and other minority) communities that goes over the heads of the MSM.

Bingo.

I'm willing to bet that not one in ten black americans know that the senior, powerful democrat in the US Senate is the former grand kleagle of the KKK, and that he has opposed every civil rights initiative that ever came down the pike.

Exactly.......the MSM isn't merely biased in their reporting, they also regularly omit news beneficial to our side.

It's time to open a REAL media front in the minority community.

Agreed............now where do we start?

In a sense, we're getting there. Think for a moment that only five years ago none of these Byrd skeletons would have had nary a mention *anywhere*.

"He is a racist...."

Anyone remember how he acted during the confirmation of Colin Powell in 2001?

An African-American Rush Limbaugh would be a good start.

Maybe........I used to think that the people that SHOULD listen to Rush,
probably don't. Over time, however, Rush has certainly been effective in
getting the conservative message out to the masses.

Byrd has denounced the KKK in the same way the islamofascist imams "denounce" terrorism.

You forgot to mention in your list of Senator Byrd's

accomplishments that he was instrumental in giving away the

Panama Canal. I learned my lesson and have never voted for

him since then. WV will soon be a part of the solid South,

politically. Byrd has had no clout in the last 3 elections.

He tried to keep Shelly Moore Capito out of Washington

and look where she is. Same with George W.

Democrats are clueless.......This action is not going to change anything, all it does is alienate the black vote upon which they are totally dependent. They can not win dog catcher without it. Strategic mistake.
