a near majority of blacks lambasted the Democrats for taking them for granted.

This and the two paragraphs after it are a precise summary of the conservative stance on racial representation. It's always been a puzzle to me how blacks could support the party that has kept them enslaved long after they were emancipated. Apparently at least ONE black intellectual is waking up to a new day.

“But many will rush to the polls to vote for someone they think can better deliver the goods.

You see, this is the core problem, and it's not just the view of black voters.

Government should not be in the business of providing goods and services!

Big deal, they throw out McKinney. Any thinking voter would have.

Okay. But what are conservatives going to do to go after these voters? The Right does not have a good record on taking its message to black people. Growing up, I never saw anyone but a RAT come through the 'hood during election time.

That must change.

Not only that, but have diligently worked to enslave the rest of us as well. In their world, only the Rat elite would have any real freedom. I do hope I live long enough to see an all out rebellion of blacks against the tactics of the democrats. It would be so satisfying to watch the likes of Jesse Jackson and others, who presume to speak for all blacks, trying to figure what went wrong and desperately trying to reframe their strategy.

I've read EOH for years and recently he's been showing some very hopeful signs. I'd like to be among the first to congratulate him on leaving the Democrat Plantation and helping lead the way for Black Americans to political maturity.

Welcome 'home' Earl.
