But given how Dems on DU savage their own, maybe not so surprising.

How about we just call the crazy people crazy and not make stuff up about them? They do fine looking like morons on their own.

(34,857 posts)Kesha Rogers is a most interesting U.S. Senate candidate. She's a Texas Democrat who believes that President Obama, who she often compares to Hitler, should be impeached -- some allege she's even said executed -- for "flagrant" constitutional violations.

(20,450 posts)How she got on the ballot is a mystery. How the Texas Democratic Party allowed her on the ballot is baffling.
But again, it is proof that one again, black Democrats do not vote for candidates simply based on race. For if we did, she would have garnered much more of the black vote. Those who did vote for her probably didn't know much about who she really was or was misled.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
