This might well be the dumbest article Star Parker has ever written.
Uninformed, stupid, likes race baiting slime ball tactics?
I have no idea what her thought process was in what she wrote.
I think she just was seduced by all those black votes for a Republican and either did not know or did not care how the Cochran campaign brought them in. Either way, it’s inexcusable to ignore the Alinksky-style tactics brought to bear against the Tea Party.
Thank you.. She is apparently unaware, or doesn’t think it matters, that Cochran said to the black democrat voters, “The Tea Party is obstructing President Obama”, and said it’s because we’re racists. He said that he wouldn’t do that.
What was McDNiels supposed to do, tell them “No, we won’t obbsteuct Obama, we want his agenda passed”?
It’s unbeleivable that any “conservative” would defend this.
Mine too, until she learns to get her facts stright bedore shooting her mouth off.
That's irrelevant because of the disgusting unforgiveable tactics Cochran used. It was the plantation owners telling the slaves how to vote. It was all-out no rules war against conservatives. People belong in jail and McDaniels should get the nomination.
And RINOs are still telling us to lighten up. I no longer think a Repbulican majority in the US Senate is a good idea. There aren't more than a half dozen Republican US Senators I'd want to be a majority of anything. They scare me.
Amen to every word.

Isn’t that the truth. Wh, why, why, must it always come down to this, even for a black conservative?
Yes! I am so sick of all this right now I could scream. You could give every damn one of them a house, car and a million dollars they would be back in less than a year saying it’s whitey’s fault that they are broke again. I say kiss my you know what!
I can’t figure it out, what she wrote is either willfully ignorant of the facts, or she is too stupid to see that the black votes were anti-conservative demonrats voting to muck-up the primary.
None of them will vote other than Demonrat in Nov!
How can conservatism be pandered to blacks, or other minorities, or whites, for that matter? Once pandered, it becomes something else. Of course, that isn’t a problem for Republicans who can pander with the same meaningless messages Democrats use. But they can’t do it with conservatism, because it isn’t demographic specific, or demographically flexible.
Come one; come all, but come on your own free will, and on your own dime. Shout it out in black churches, at the LULAC, in Chinatown or Wall Street, but the message remains the same. People either correct their thinking to the message of conservatism, or they don’t.
And wht kind of conservative outreach is it, to tell them that conservatives are racist and are obstructing Obama’s agenda, the unspoken part of that was “I won’t”.
I think people aren’t reading what Parker is saying.
She seems to be saying that there’s an untapped vein of Conservatism within the Black community, and McDaniels screwed up by not appealing to these Conservative blacks on Conservative issues.
I’ve read the article twice, and that sure seems like what she’s saying.
She’s NOT making the argument that McDaniels should have done things to flip the Black votes that went for Cochrane, but that there were Black Conservatives who didn’t vote that he could, and should, have targeted.
That’s fair, in my opinion. I know, am friends with, a number of Black Conservatives. They all say that the GOP, Conservatives and Tea Party would see a significant increase in support if they’d actually do a good lrvel of outreach. Parker cites stats showing that 25% of Blacks think favorably of the Tea Party. Does anyone not know what kind of impact it would have if we could get that 25% out and voting for our candidates?
Cochran didn’t appeal to it either, he actually “blamed” conservarives dor obstructing Obama, implying that he won’t. I don’t see anything praise-worthy in that.
YEP!
For how many years must we hear of this crap? We spend money on their schools they crap on them. We give them food all they do is complain. Give them free housing they crap on it. Sick of it. I can send a kid to school but I can't read for them. They either rise or stay in the sewer. We can't make them do anything. They will not listen to any white person.
And how much attention did Cochran give blacks prior to the runoff? Just curious.
Then you have to discounts Parker's assertion that there ARE conservative blacks in Mississippi that are receptive to positive outreach. It's Monday morning quarterbacking, but relevant for future reference.
It is the BACKSTABBING.
McDaniel did not deserve it.
Sen. Thompson did not deserve it.
Gov. Palin did not deserve it.
The Speaker did not deserve it.
There are lots of black conservatives, a lot of blacks are against abortion, but they still vote DEMOCRAT. That’s the bottom line. I have personal experience in this. When I lived back east in a sewer, the rats would go to all the black churches at election time and tell them they same tired crap they told them the last time. They lap it up and nothing ever changes and they keep voting DEMOCRAT. You can’t fix STUPID!
