DUNWOODY, Ga. (AP) - Rep. Cynthia McKinney cruised through the Fourth of July parade here atop a snazzy purple sports car, looking every bit the front-runner who hasn't faced a serious re-election challenge in a decade. Fifty feet behind her, Denise Majette chugged up the street in a 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass wide enough to hold most of her campaign staff. A few last-minute balloons were taped to the sides, along with some crepe paper. |

That is a profoundly stupid remark to make regarding voting in a Dem primary between two black candidates where the polls show the election is close, with McKinney slightly behind, to wit:
A Cooper and Secrest (D) poll, conducted 5/5-7/02 for former State Court Judge Denise Majette (D), surveyed 509 likely Democratic primary voters; margin of error +/- 4.4% (Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 5/31).
Tested: Majette and Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D). Democratic primary matchup: Majette 41% McKinney 37 Undec. 22 McKinney job approval: Positive 38% Negative 60%
Interesting. There have been white people crucified for the same thing.
Thanks
Buzz Brockway, Chairman
Gwinnett County Republican Party
Maybe when McKinney is defeated she will tell us who planted ol' Glory on Mars.

McKinney, a guest editorial writer for the Nation of Islam newspaper, may find herself going the way of Earl Hililard in Alabama.
The 'quiet' part would get my vote right there, if I were Georgian!
I think that was another bright light: the ever-charming Queen Sheila Jackson-Lee of Houston.
Thanks, I stand corrected. Sometimes, I can tell the difference.

Don't you know? It was her good friend Sheila Jackson Lee!
