I should also have added, that I met Sen Cochran over two decades ago, he'd only have been in his second or possibly third Senate term (-:, and he was thoroughly a decent gentleman. He had no ill will against any person of another race/religion ... or even a democrat for that matter. (-:My friend, we are going for white and Trump. Not my choice, although I don't care about race. Espy was a congressman with white support, and all he was accused of was taking football tickets and a plane ride. Hyde-Smith is simply an embarrassmentThe big Senate run-off is happening today.
What do you guys think the result will be?
Will they finally move away from the stigma of bigotry and racism, or will they step into the 21st century and run AWAY from that stain?
The choice is clear, Cindy Hyde-Smith is a choice to remain the same, Mike Espy is a conscious decision to put the past behind, but what will they do? And why?
He was a former college professor, and he'd obviously met people who didn't look, or worship, like he did, and he didn't find them any different than himself. Hyde-Smith may not have evil in her heart, but she's probably more experienced with the live stock on her farm that people of different backgrounds than herself.
