But the fact that it's "courage", says something about THEM not the Black community. Straight up: Black conservatives are playing "victimology" when it comes to the larger Black community.

I have been an indpendent since 1980. Typically I vote anti-incumbent unless the incumbent is someone who I know is doing a good job. I lived in Tip O'Neill's district for a while who had no opposition on the ballot. I and several hundred other voters wrote-in a name, Mickey Mouse. Some may call it a wasted vote; I call it voting my conscience. Totally and completely agree. I have been an indpendent since 1980.

Although I think the Dems are spineless and will not vote for them unless Obama is running for president, I don't like the Repubs either. I think I'm going to be one of the few who some may say that my vote is being wasted, I will vote independent from now on. Hey, why don't you join me (smile)? Anyway, I agree that something else must be done. Duane,
