    I don't know, but I'll bet he's a Republican... So, I guess you're trying to tell us that you guys are the inclusive party...

    Their policies did work and very well. They sucked all the money from the economy world wide.

    Mission Accomplished.

    A SOUTHERN Tea Party black senator. But he's not really black I'm sure, just another Jesse Helms.

    One black guy you can brag about. Big deal. How does the new guy help his constituents is what I wait to see.

    You mean window dressing to attract like looking support, or make the argument about how inclusive they are? If he turns out to be a winger with a suntan he gets torn apart like the rest of them.

    We will see.

    So you sent your token Black to the WH ?

    The one we had ended up being president, not once but twice. Kind of trumps your temporary fix to your color problem. Talk when Scott actually wins the seat for himself. Till then..!

    You guys conveniently forget (or maybe were never taught) it was Republicans that opposed and ended slavery and championed civil rights. You guys just have them enslaved in other ways now.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but what a republican was in 1865 bears very little resemblance to republicans today.

    That was a totally different breed of Republican.
