I'm not in McKinney's district but while listening to Rush I heard local GA news report that Cynthia is already complaining about computer voting irregularities. Her internal polling must show she is losing to be starting the loser spin at 12 noon.

She’s had her controversy but she’s human. I suspect she may be a bit less.

No way they had to hunt for that which -- you can't miss her spouting off in the LBM.

McKinney has the right "attitude" for many of the Black voters in her district. She is against "The Man." I think another reason is that her Father was a longtime politician in the area, and she is following in his footsteps.
I know several Blacks that when we discuss specific political issues, seem to want much of what I want, a strong national defense, national security, protect our borders, and fiscal sanity. Yet push the right buttons, and you would think it is back to the 60s when Blacks and Whites were at odds in the South.

Early votes go both ways in 4th District race [McKinney]This is an AMAZINGLY helpful headline. I would have expected the early votes to be 100% for one candidate or the other.....

No. It was a witch exposed.

Early votes go both ways... So do many of McKinney's supporters.

***Playing the race card and blaming the Joooooos is "telling it the way it is?"****
It is: the way the black people of Cynthia McKinneys district look at it. They teach their kids this hate every day. Its al the fault of "The Man". Poor Cynthia was picked on by "The Man". Its the way they feel , its why she gets elected.
Just like the people in New Orleans wont hold bribes against Jefferson. Probably half of them have either accepted or been given bribes or broken the law in some manner. Why shouldnt they elect one of their own.

Why do I have the feeling this Firefighter was hired under affirmative action when they lowered the standards.

I wondered if that firefighter realized how often he'd be quoted - - unintended consequences ----
But, this FR "mind meld" thing does worry me a bit :-)

"“I think it was a witch hunt,” the 38-year-old Atlanta firefighter said."
It was a short witch hunt. They had no trouble finding the witch.

Her supporters say McKinney has been smeared and that she tells it like it is -- yet they probably have absolutely no idea what McKinney says or does on a regular basis. You could take these same supporters and tell them that Mr. Whiteguy said "[fill in any stupid McKinney statement]" and they would respond in a totally different way.

Makes me want to quote Rodney Dangerfield, "The last time I saw a mouth like that it had a hook in it!".

Washington D.C. and Dekalb County must have a lot in common to have voted in Marion Barry and Cynthia McKinney.
That thing in common is more thatn likely a thug lifestyle.
I'm glad I live far away from sh!tholes like that.
