#7 Abrams, a black woman, lost the 2018 gubernatorial race to Brian Kemp, a white man, by a little more than 1 percentage point.

Stated in an absolute fashion, the losing margin was 50,000 votes; if The Hill was an honest publication they would have mentioned that.

#8 I worry about NC, SC and GA. They seem bent on becoming coastal blue states. Frighteningly, I don't see FL very far behind.

#10 Not everything is racism, sexism or some of ism or phobia. Like Hillary, Abrams was a really bad candidate.

#11 If this country wasn't really racist, a lot of sitting pols wouldn't be in the position they are or had been. Merit would have cleaned out a lot.

#12 Mind you 0bama won the elction and no-one knew anything about his past (mainly thanks to the MSM covering those stories with a pillow until they stop moving).

Obviously now 0bama isn't president the people who (unwisely? perhaps not looking at romney and McCain in retrospect )elected him twice return to being called waycists.

#13 By that logic, if this country weren't racist Stacey Abrams would also be on the Playboy centerfold.

#15 Last week the University of Pennsylvania released a study on the state of racism in the US (received to deafening silence, so guess what they concluded! Actually racism is in free fall in the Trump era.)

#16 First, Seth Moulton is a dick and has incorrect info about his Harvard degree on Wiki. I told him and got a blow off.

Second, this is a great time for the reprise of my Harris/Abrams bumper sticker. Where I live, people like it. Idiots.

#17 That bias confirmation study that failed. These people are profoundly ignorant.

"A new study has found that anti-black and anti-Hispanic prejudice has declined since President Donald Trump took office. The results defied their expectations, the researchers said. (Duh.)

In the study, University of Pennsylvania sociologists (not scientists, but users of statistics) Daniel J. Hopkins and Samantha Washington set out to measure the effect of Trump’s election on anti-black and anti-Hispanic prejudice. For the study, they used a randomly-selected panel of 2,500 Americans whose changing opinions have been under study since 2008."
