Liberals are going to have a tough time with this one, but I expect special "treatment" for this one, if she wins. I'm sure they are ready and armed with their typical hateful and racist attacks for any minority who dares to think independently.

She's both black and female. I predict that haters in the Dem party will be all over her like flies on poop. Hope I'm wrong and they can take the high road for once.

I don't see what the issue is. I wish her the best of luck.

Has any Dem ever won in Utah? I doubt that the Dem party would even contest this race. No news here.

And seems to be well spoken. I believe she's said she intends to join the Black Caucus and share her thoughts with them. I'd enjoy seeing Maxine Water's head explode... or at least her wig melt.

Enlighten yourself by actually reading...

I look forward to the Dems' reaction when President Romney nominates Janice Rogers Brown to the Supreme Court and she is confirmed by a Republican-majority Senate after five Democrats on the verge of losing their seats break ranks and vote for cloture on the Dems' filibuster.

And if she had been a Christian in Utah.......

Most folks will vote for an ethnic person, if they are white enough.
