But John Abarr, a 41-year-old night auditor at a Great Falls hotel who lost a local Republican legislative primary in 2002, could have a hard time getting any backing from Montana Republicans. His platform promises to legalize marijuana, increase mental health programs, keep abortion legal, abolish the death penalty because he argues it is unfair to poor people — and "save the White Race."
Yet another liberal posing as a "racist Republican". Yawn.

all true until the late 60's when the republicans for some reason decided to pursue the southern strategy, which gained them the rep of being the racist party and lost them the 90 percent black vote they had.
40 years later and they are still trying to fix it.
the democratic party no doubt was a racist party, but its inclusion and promotion of non whites into positions of power and blacks alienation from the republican party is why blacks switched to the dems.
i also find it odd and amusing that some admitted republicans on this forum have stated that segregation isnt really a bad thing, and that integrating leads to problems.
wouldnt you be for that as republicans, since democrats were the racist party?
Are you sggesting that the guy is a plant, making himself look like a clown to everyone and then associating himself with the GOP to make them look bad? That would be quite the commitment. I'm not sure I'd want to be loathed by ~90% of the populace in order to provide a cheap partisan punchline, but maybe that's just me.
Depends.
I'm not so sure that I could turn away the 'secret' payoff that someone like Soros was willing to pay me to do it!
When a clown already knows that he can't win, he can at least be a Rich clown by doing the masters bidding!
And since most politicians are already 'Loathed' by 90% of the population .. It Ain't that big of a stretch .. now is it!?
Pubs are synonymous with bigotry and even if they publicly try to distance themselves from this racist idiot, He is a manifestation of their racist ideology and beliefs. Not good, Pubs. Yet another Klansman running as a Republican. Pathetic.
No wonder President Obama is blowing your party away despite your efforts to discredit him.
What are you smoking?
I want some of it .. Please?
(It has to be damn good!)
Too funny. Now let me see, who was it who called Obama clean and articulate? I think it was the same guy who said you have to be an Indian to own a 7-11.
Obama is set to get his clock cleaned. In case you haven't noticed the economy is sliding down the tubes.
The exact quote would be: "A Clean and Articulate Negro".

Yes, you did look at that the last 2-3 elections he was democrat, right...then all of a sudden...he is running as a republican....
Of course you'll notice the Republican party reputiated him. The Dems on the other hand made a former Grand Wizard a lion of the Senate. Plus his beliefs parallel conventional Dem beliefs, pro abortion, anti-death penalty, pro drugs, and a racist. I think he is running in the wrong party.
He is a Republican because the black man is a Democrat . If Republicans won with a black he would run as a Democrat . He sort of said it as he plans to get votes because of Obama .
I think .
Blacks killed more blacks in America than the KKK ever did times hundreds , I don't know why people even care what they do .
