There's no question that Omaha Mayor Jim Suttle had a rough primary election last week.

But despite his weak showing, Suttle still has a chance to catch up to front-runner Jean Stothert.

George Wallace was a self-professed segregationist, too. The day will come when so-called "progressivism" will be as socially, politically, and morally unacceptable in America as segregationism is today.
