It will be interesting to see how the MSM and the leftist apparatchiks attempt to porttray Randolph as the poor beleaguered minority who has more authority to speak on the issue.

After debating in favor of a bill that would require ultrasounds before abortions, Democrat leaders openly harassed, threatened and belittled Democratic Rep. Daphnee Campbell.
Freshman State House of Representatives member, Daphne Campbell from Miami was in her first legislative session last week when her own party viciously turned on her after she debated for and voted in favor of the pro-life bill allowing ultrasounds before abortions. Campbell is a wife and mother of five children who works as a nurse. As she rose in passionate support for the pro-life bill, Rep. Scott Randolph a Democrat from Orlando, whose assigned seat is right next to Campbell, started tossing papers on her desk and threw her pen in the trash apparently incensed that a fellow Democrat would support the bill.

Liberals- Save the whales. Kill the babies.
May the Lord give her strength to fight against her evil party.
Gonna be funny if more and more Dem legislators realize this could be a good career move in a Republican-dominated statehouse.
I know nothing of her district but I assume she did not get elected keeping her faith a secret.
threw her pen in the trash
You mean the taxpayers pen in the trash. you twit.
The MSM is always looking for the next “fiscally conservative/socially “moderate” Republican. Someday someone is gonna figure out that there are seats to be won in cities like Miami and Atlanta and New Orleans and St. Louis and more by Democrats who are fiscally “moderate”/socially “conservative.” It’s better to be a full-fledged conservative of course, but we could perhaps survive as a country better with more Daphne Campbells and fewer Nancy Pelosis.
Right Rep.
Just in the wrong party.
Who knows? That may change.
Liberals- Save the whales. Kill the babies.
Liberals - don’t kill murderer Osama just kill millions of babies.
Black Christians have a dilemma because it is supposed to be “good” to vote for democRats, but then this whole abortion thing comes up every once in a while.
I wonder if these stupid libs realize that since R v W they have shot themselves in foot. We are not producing enough children to pay for their elders’ retirement.
Liberals really are disgusting. And they are among the least tolerant people on earth.
Many fewer Pelousies, Boxers, Feinsteins, Wasserman-Schultzes, etal.
The only difference between Dems and spoiled brat kids is their chronological age.
How dare they leave the plantation known as the democRATic party!
Good point; but, maybe they are aborting themselves into a permanent minority, that’s the best face I can put on it.
She done went and strayed off the Rat plantation. So the Rats whip her, not with the bullwhips of old, but with almost equally stinging words.
The issue is rare that the left can actually stand and debate logically and win.
This is why their arguments, invariably, are not arguments based on the issue, but an appeal to emotion or an ad hominem.
Did anyone get video of her co-legislator’s childish behavior? It needs to go viral.
Democrats who are fiscally “moderate”/socially “conservative.”
??? isn’t that an oxymoron?
Not to mention those who would have grown up to have jobs and pay taxes. Perhaps one of them would have found a cure for cancer or heart disease or made other worthwhile contributions. The amount of death by abortions in the black community alone should qualify for genocide. Yet these dumb libs continue to vote in death-dealers and harass those who oppose them. What's truly mindboggling is that they actually see themselves on the side of good and compassion.
It’s bullying. No other word for it.
That's what we get a lot of in my neck of the woods, in the Chicago 'burbs. There are lots of blue-collar "Catholic" voters who prefer pro-life and pro-traditional marriage candidates, but they want government handouts and goodies so the Dems run "socially conservative" sounding marxists and win every time by saying the GOP will take away your kids school lunches and make grandma eat dog food. Most of the RAT politicians in southwest Cook County will claim to be "pro-life" or at least avoid being see as supporting abortion, a perfect example being Congressman Dan Lipinski and State Rep. Kevin McCarthy of Orland Park, IL.
Of course the mainstream media ignores this fact and keeps insisting the Republicans lose because socially conservative candidates scare away the "moderate suburban women". Any candidate who wins and doesn't fit their steroype will be promptly ignored (i.e. did you hear a peep from the media about how the vocally pro-life and pro-gun Dan Rutherford was elected Illinois State Treasurer last year and was the highest GOP voter in suburban Cook County? And that he won Mark Kirk's district where we were told for years that you "have to" be far left on social issues to be "electable" there?)
Funny how the Chicago machine approved Dems don't "need" to talk about how much they love Planned Parenthood and gay marriage, as the mainstream media tells Republicans to do.
Amen
God bless her and keep her strong.
Florida ping
Blacks are fairly socially conservative and heavily against the gay agenda.
But their Reps get away with voting hard social liberal.
