re: #2 darthstar

It’s really, really mindboggling that the GOP is so ready to give up any chance of blacks voting for them, any pretense that they respect the feelings of the black community.

To borrow a phrase from a poster here:

I HOPE EVERYONE THAT WAS PLEASED THAT A REPUBLICAN GOT ELECTED GOVERNOR OF VIRGINIA IN THE MIDTERMS IS HAPPY NOW!

Not that the Democratic opponent was actually all that good, but McDonnell should not have been the GOP nominee.
