Having a "D" next to the name is not necessarily enough (McCulloch)

Robert P. McCulloch is the Prosecuting Attorney for St. Louis County, Missouri, a post he has held since 1991. A Democrat, he has historically had bipartisan support as a popular prosecutor and has won re-election in 1994, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2010 and 2014, often unopposed but by wide margins when he has had an opponent.

Everyone, even a "D" should be held to high scrutiny.

Gov. Nixon (D)

2. There are racist Democrats

And not just in the south. A great number of people become Republicans because they're brought in by the GOP's race baiting, but much of the Democratic Party is labor based, and labor unions have an ugly racist history of their own. (I am a strong believer in labor unions, but I am also a strong believer in facing up to history, and there's racism in that particular history.)

3. Also, I just read that a lot of his family are or have worked in the St. Louis PD.

The man literally pretended to be a defense lawyer instead of the prosecuting attorney.

4. Some of us have been saying this for 2 decades now.

I'm sorry it took this to bring others to that conclusion.

8. be very careful--soon any criticism will be banned, and the the dead kid

is going to be a Rovian plant to make Black people look bad by rioting (hey, I think I found the loyalty test for 2020!)

this is the reality that all the empty sloganeering--"any Dem is better than any Pub," "you go into R to reverse and D to go forward"--is meant to not just cover up, but foster and encourage
