Utah’s Misty Snow makes history as Dems’ transgender Senate nominee

Utah voters picked a historic, and largely unknown, Democratic candidate to challenge Sen. Mike Lee this November.

Misty K. Snow is the first transgender nominee from a major party to run for a U.S. Senate seat and she shares the distinction of being the first transgender person to run for Congress. Misty Plowright, a transgender woman, claimed the Democratic nomination in Colorado's conservative 5th House District on Tuesday.

"A lot of people have told me whether I win or lose, I'm already making a difference just by running," Snow said.

Throughout the primary, the 30-year-old Salt Lake City resident has given scant attention to her potentially historic status. She instead has campaigned on a progressive platform and promised to aggressively challenge Lee, whom she has repeatedly called "loathsome."

Not Misty Snow.

More like Crusty Snow Job.

Luke Russert in a bad wig!<P.What the HELL has happened to common sense and decency in UTAH??

Who would have believed that The Firesign Theater was predicting the future with their "Not Insane" album.

Misty Snow is a 30-year-old nobody who only “won” the nomination because no one gives a damn about who the Democratic Party Senate nominee is in Utah. It’s like Alvin Greene in South Carolina.

Well she sounds [looks] hideous.

Well she’s a guy...so.

[Envisioning]

So now we have the mentally ill running for public office.

Shouldn't there be a law against this or something? Seriously.

Misty Plowright, a transgender woman, claimed the Democratic nomination in Colorado's conservative 5th House District on Tuesday.

Does anyone proof read anymore. It is UTAH not Colorado....sheesh!

Put Jake From State Farm in a wig and a dress, and he might look a bit like Misty Pervert WTF Snow ...

[mountainlion]

This reminded me of the movie “Misty”.

[oblomov]

No, there are two transgender Misties. They are girls now because they have pink lunchboxes and write with glitter pens.

[Starboard]

They’ll vote for it because it’s being sensitive.

*************

You’ve got it right. This is similar to affirmative action; liberals promote unqualified people because it shows how sensitive they are. And it has the side benefit of striking back at “the man”. They could care less about competence.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Hot, hot, hot... not!

I guess this is a throwaway publicity nomination in a state the Dems feel they can’t possibly win.

[stevio]

America has become a joke.

[KosmicKitty]

Still looks like a guy. A guy dressed up like a woman.

[ronnietherocket3]

There are two [not]women runnning for Congress with the name Misty, one in CO the other in UT. The article could be clearer on this matter.

Not that this is a matter that needs clarity as mush as it needs sanity.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Misty Snow? ROTFL! The jokes write themselves.

[dangus]

You hafta admit, Snow and Plowright are a hilarious couple of names.

[FlingWingFlyer]

That’s a DUDE, man. Should be Yellow Snow.

[HomerBohn]

They toss out a hot transvestite hoping to troll for more perverts.

This could be a win-win situation in San Francisco.

Misty Snow had better move.

[HomerBohn]

Look how far Obama got.

Hillary think she’s on her way to the really big time! Not bad for a piece of rat-faced trailer trash.
