The underlying political dynamic is the populist skewing that is occurring because of the effect of the racism the republicans are able to array against the Dems because of Obama

Consider if the incumbent president was white

It is unimaginable that the GOP would be able to maintain any significant political presence without the support they receive from voters who are willing to subordinate their own well being to their racial hatred

I believe that this is a powder keg for the GOP though

They will not be able to escape their bad behaviour for 8 years once a white dem is inaugurated

It could be that a female might give them a bit of an extension on their hateful actions, but there is no way the total disrespect for the office of the POTUS, again occupied by a white person, will be as tolerated within the electorate as it has been under Obama

...and this is a national disgrace

Women take over when all the angry old white guys in Congress die. Pelosi and the women in Congress who are dems are also getting angrier with each passing year so will have to be a new generation without the baggage but that is a long way off IMHO. I doubt those black women from MSNBC will 'save' us Koan neither the blonde bimbos from Dallas on FOX or Matthews, Shultz, O'Reilly or Hannity for that matter. Echo chambers get dangerous Koan. Is an addiction like Heroin..>>

What echo chamber? Have you ever seen me post an echo? Never. When have you ever seen me follow? What solid liberal has been banned more than I by liberal threads?

And the black women were a metaphor for the changing times. You doubt their power? MSNBC and those women, black and otherwise and kids and liberals are bringing down Chris Christy and half his mafia in NJ. That is pretty impressive don't you think?

Rachel broke that story and Steve Kornacki and the rest of MSNBC have been doing powerful investigative reporting.

PS black women are going to college 2 to 1 over black men.
