Isn’t that the truth. Wh, why, why, must it always come down to this, even for a black conservative?
Yes! I am so sick of all this right now I could scream. You could give every damn one of them a house, car and a million dollars they would be back in less than a year saying it’s whitey’s fault that they are broke again. I say kiss my you know what!
I think people aren’t reading what Parker is saying.
She seems to be saying that there’s an untapped vein of Conservatism within the Black community, and McDaniels screwed up by not appealing to these Conservative blacks on Conservative issues.
I’ve read the article twice, and that sure seems like what she’s saying.
She’s NOT making the argument that McDaniels should have done things to flip the Black votes that went for Cochrane, but that there were Black Conservatives who didn’t vote that he could, and should, have targeted.
That’s fair, in my opinion. I know, am friends with, a number of Black Conservatives. They all say that the GOP, Conservatives and Tea Party would see a significant increase in support if they’d actually do a good lrvel of outreach. Parker cites stats showing that 25% of Blacks think favorably of the Tea Party. Does anyone not know what kind of impact it would have if we could get that 25% out and voting for our candidates?
