Black conservative pingIf you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

My bet is he will try to be neutral or endorse Majette. If he goes after McKinney too much, Sharpton will dog him.

Really? This will be most interesting! Thanks!
I would have bet anything he would not endorse McKinney.

Good grief! First, the burning of Atlanta, then Ted Turner and CNN, and now Jesse. Hasn't that city suffered enough?
To: mhking
Apparently, McKinney didn't want Al Sharpton to campaign for her, ala Earl Hilliard so Jesse was #2 on the list.

When did Benny Hill get a church named for him? Amazing.

Oh, golly gee! Jesse is back in America! Yip yip yahoo! I'm
sure he will have a very uplifting speech, seeing as he caught up on plenty of sleep in the Middle East.

Don't fall asleep! This will be an excellent show! Jesse vs the DNC Bankers.
I still don't think Jesse will do it.
To: LarryLied
Maybe he'll just get her knocked up.

This true?
Mr. Hilliard says at least three other black House Democrats will be "targeted" for defeat this year by Jewish campaign contributors who rank support for Israel as a top priority."They have targeted Cynthia McKinney in Georgia; they have targeted Jesse Jackson Jr. of Chicago and Donald Payne of Newark [N.J.]," Mr. Hilliard says. "Many African-Americans were not pleased with the manner of Jewish influence in the African-American district. I don't think that they're going to be pleased with that influence in Cynthia McKinney's district, or Jesse Jackson, or Don Payne or anybody else that represents a predominantly African-American district."

This true?I've heard this from several places; no one particular source, though.
I wouldn't be surprised if it were; McKinney, Hilliard & Payne all have received Arab monies, if I understand correctly. I had not heard of any Arab connection to Jesse, Jr. though.

Serious question here...
Can we take out "Jesse-I-Embarass-Americans-On-A-Daily-Basis-By-Just-Breathing-Jackson", while we attempt to take out "Osma-camel-swapping-bin-laden-in-sin", and the "Sad-And-Damned-Hussein?"

Jackson's not exactly on a roll these days. If he backs McKinney, and she loses, isn't that one more nail in the coffin?
