From her Senate webpage bio:

"Maria has always embraced the values she first learned growing up in a strong working-class family."

Riiight. Well, apparently that's not all she's been embracing.

Frankie Blacburn's bio at "Impact Silver Spring". It looks like she's an ACORN gal...

FRANKIE BLACKBURN

Executive Director

Previously, Frankie helped found Silver Spring Community Vision, a comprehensive service center for the homeless. As Vice-President of Montgomery Housing Partnership (MHP), she developed a community-based approach to preserving existing housing in older communities and a new model for supporting and partnering with the low and moderate income families living in MHP housing. Frankie worked as Special Assistant to the Executive Director of the Housing Opportunities Commission in Montgomery County. In this role, she spearheaded a new approach to linking services with housing and sparked a new County wide approach to addressing the long term needs of homeless individuals and families. In the early years of her career, Frankie served as a legal service attorney with the National Housing Law Project.

In 2005, Frankie was honored as one of Montgomery County’s 25 Outstanding Women in Business. She received the Linowes Leadership Award and the Comcast Cool Woman Award in 2000.

Frankie is a co-founder of IMPACT Silver Spring and has been Executive Director since 1999. She currently sits on the Board of Trustees of Washington Adventist Hospital and the Board of Directors of Maryland Vietnamese Mutual Association

Nice graphic. I’m still waiting to hear a parallel story about how John Edwards persuaded MSM to look the other way as evidence of his affair with Rielle Hunter mounted steadily. Given his shameless courtroom performances in the service of multimillion dollar pay-offs, it wouldn’t surprise me at all to learn that he resorted to sobbing his way through a pitch to a reporter to keep his sordid activities on the down-low.

This guy looks like he just took the kneepads off just before he came on camera. Harwood and Carl “the red” Quintinilla are the worst openly sychophant liberals. If I were Joe Kernen, I would contemplate the pros and cons of duct taping their mouths shut.
