South Carolina's unexpected Democrat nominee for the US Senate is unemployed mystery man Alvin Greene (upper photo) who says he wants to play golf with Barack Obama.
Democrats in Texas have their own surprise Democrat primary winner, congressional nominee Kesha Rogers (lower photo) who wants to impeach Barack Obama.
So while South Carolina party officials are still unsure of what to do about Greene's success at the ballot box, Texas Democrats have no such reservations — they wasted little time in casting Rogers into exile and offering no support or recognition of her campaign to win what once was Republican Majority Leader Tom DeLay's old seat.
Democrats in South Carolina have a longer list of negatives to overcome with Alvin Greene.
Greene is unemployed, has no home or apartment of his own. He can only be reached on his father’s phone -- doesn’t even have a cell phone. He has been drawing unemployment since he left military service. He was involuntarily discharged from both the Army and the Air Force. He is facing an obscenity charge for allegedly showing a teenage girl online pornography in a college campus computer lab.
Democrats in Texas have a shorter list of negatives with their surprise candidate but her list is much more lethal.
Kesha is a "full time political activist" in the Lyndon LaRouche Youth Movement, a recruiting arm of the LaRouche political organization. The LYM espouses LaRouche opposition to free trade and "globalism" (the UN, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund) and it also calls for a return to a humanist classical education, emphasizing the works of Plato and Leibnitz.
Her website calls for the impeachment of President Obama and calls Obama a "London and Wall Street backed puppet" whose policies will destroy the Democratic Party.
During the campaign, she was photographed carrying an oversized portrait of the President with a Hitler-style moustache penciled on his lip.
Why can’t Democrats in South Carolina and Texas find candidates more worthy than Alvin Greene and Kesha Rogers?
