You're right, they're not trying direct blackmail, as it were. They are trying to make their influence felt within the Party.

Only now, when it is too late, do black Democrats realize that nobody at the top of the New Jersey Democratic Party cares what they think.

When you conciously tie your fortunes to that of one party, this is what happens.

Be Seeing You,

Correct. Now it stands to reason that the Pubs would take advantage of this, right? The piously principled would never admit it, but, all is fair in war and politics. When your enemy has an exposed weakness, you take advantage. But it doesn't look like it will be.

All I can now ask is, "Why not?" I'm talking about regular conservatives here. Fringe Right? Fuhgedaboudit. But why won't the GOP move on this?

Maybe so.

Some, however, have left the Dims and are becoming Republicans. Here in the 2nd District of Mississippi, our (Republican) candidate is a black man. This past weekend, I spent the day at the fall flea market in Vicksburg campaigning for him. You should see the faces of the black populace when they figure out a white guy is trying to get a black guy elected as a Republican.

Any other Freepers in the 2nd District? Vote for Clinton Le Suer on Nov. 5. (In fairness, the Democrat candidate is Bennie Thompson.)
