An Indian-American governor. A Vietnamese-American congressman. In the deep deep South.

Man, these Republicans are the lily-white party of country club racism, ain’t they?

What delightful news.

[ComputerGuy]

One small step at a time

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Let's hope he is a true conservative. It has been my experience that the Vietnamese immigrants, like many of the Russians, have a greater appreciation for American liberty and traditions than most liberal Americans whose roots may go back 200 years in this country.

I was shocked to read this thread this morning.

He apparently received a decent percentage of the black vote in the district. Evidently, district residents had finally tired of “Cold Cash” Jefferson.

[Islander7]

Ditto!

[FES0844]

I was shocked ...

I was too! Kinda restores my faith in my fellow voters....just a little!

“lily-white party of country club racism”
Hey, if one actually is honest, works and educates themself to get where they are, they will always be considered white by the something for nothing bunch.

WOW!!!!!!!

I live 1 hour N of NO and am shocked by this great news!

I’m in another dist. and thought/heard Jefferson was a shoe in.

What great news to start this Sunday!

LOL hope there is a BIG margin so no thoughts of a recount

[ThanhPhero]

I am very glad to see that the Viet Kieu won but his name is ANH CAO not Ahn! AHN is not Vietnamese formulation at all. Ever.

[OBXWanderer]

Wonder if Congressman Elect Cao has received a congratulatory call from “President Elect” ?????

[ElayneJ]

Woo-Hoo!! Way to go Louisiana!

Every time I read about the Vietnamese who came here with nothing more than the clothes on their backs and worked and studied hard to become productive citizens of this great country, I can't help but think also about all the whiny cry-babies, born and raised here, complaining ad nauseum that were it not for racism and (in their opinion) the lack of governmental and charitable programs to do everything for them but wipe their butts after a BM, they'd be productive citizens also.

Alas, they demand more and more handouts which apparently we don't give them enough of, so they continue to have umpteen babies by umpteen different fathers and sell drugs and kill each other and innocent children.

[Ann Archy]

Both Catholics also. Congrats to the people of LA for kicking out the trash Jefferson.....now on to PRISON.

[SolidWood]

Congratulations Congressman Cao!
