Congrats to Mia.
Be careful or DC will capsize into the Potomac....
I just read this on Facebook. Glad she won.
I just ope she has a thick skin, given what she’ll have to endure.
Yay! I’m thrilled to read this! Thanks for posting this.
Good for Mia!! Thanks for posting.
The GOP-e will do everything they can to make sure she doesn’t win, just as they did two years ago. A black Republican woman upsets their Dhimmicrap buddies (who regard the likes of Mia as stolen property), especially a conservative one. So they’ll get out the long knives and do the dirty deed for the Dhimmicraps in the name of bipartisanship, all the while trying hard to cover their tracks.
And Mia will win the general election in a cakewalk. That is the reason that the DimocRAT incumbent Jim Matheson decided to retire.
I suspect Boehner & Cantor already realize they CAN NOT count on Mia’s vote for any House Republican leadership position. Let’s keep adding Tea Party candidates to the House—we’re getting close to the point of prevailing over the RINOs!
Well, Good for Her! Again!
At least it will make the party of the Minority, Little Guy, and Women— SPEND! SPEND! SPEND! to run another OLD WHITE GUY to beat her.
That is what happened ‘last time’ as the DNC was railing the GOP about ‘old white guys’, then turned around and spent a couple of fortunes to oust West, Love and several other women - though they did have some help from the GOPe.
First she has to get out of Utah...
if the Democrat nominee is a white male Mormon, or the same one that won in 2012, he will win in Utah..
the only chance she has as a black woman in Utah is if her opponent is not a Mormon...
Mia is fantastic, best wishes for her.
“...and most likely become the GOP’s first black congresswoman.”
So, all you Democrats better vote for her, or you are a you-know-what!
GO MIA!
The Democrats have never elected a Black representative from a majority white District.
Republicans have done that at least three times.
J.C. Watts, Allen West, and I can't recall the third, maybe Senator Edward Brooke from Massachusetts.
Mia Love in Congress would be interesting. Among the beneficiaries will be a number of quiet, competent, and generally overshadowed female members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Usually the public face of the CBC is Sheila Jackson Lee or Eleanor Holmes Norton or Maxine Waters, simply because the noisiest people tend to get coverage, even if (especially if?) the clown factor comes into play. If there should suddenly be an African American Republican woman in the House, the press will immediately make her a go-to spokesman. Seriously — what democratic woman would YOU put on the air as a counterpoint? None of the aforementioned three, I’ll warrant.
Congrats to Mia!
This is going to be extremely enjoyable for some of us here in Utah. We do not live in her district, however her opponent’s campaign manager is a very close relative.
Needless to say this makes reunions and such quite a time for the popcorn as we get to hear all the smears from the “good Mormons” and quite a few of the queer Mormons, all against her. I would support her no matter what and I will report more after I finally get to meet her. Nothing wrong with a bright conservative Mormon lady.
Former Saratoga Springs Mayor Mia Love (Mormon) earned ample support from Utah Republicans(Mormons) on Saturday to win her party’s nod for the House — and most likely become the GOP’s first black (Mormon) congresswoman.
hell on wheels........ Hooray for Mia
I am so proud of Mia! Good luck and may God bless her with the strength she will need to handle the slings and arrows.
