XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX SUN MAY 21, 2006 20:00:02 ET XXXXX
DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE WORKED TO DEFEAT NAGIN
**Exclusive**
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) secretly placed political operatives in the city of New Orleans to work against the reelection efforts of incumbent Democrat Mayor Ray Nagin, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
DNC Chairman Howard Dean made the decision himself to back mayoral candidate and sitting Lieutenant Governor Mitch Landrieu (D-LA), sources reveal.
Dean came to the decision to back the white challenger, over the African-American incumbent Nagin, despite concerns amongst senior black officials in the Party that the DNC should stay neutral.
The DNC teams actively worked to defeat Nagin under the auspice of the committee's voting rights program.
The party's field efforts also coincided with a national effort by Democrat contributors to support Landrieu.
Landrieu had outraised Nagin by a wide margin - $3.3 million to $541,980.
Preliminary campaign finance reports indicate many of Landrieu’s contributions came from out of state white Democrat leaders and financiers, including a $1,000 contribution from Sen. Ben Nelson's (D-NE) PAC.
The defeat of Mitch Landrieu is the latest setback for Dean's often criticized field operation.
In his victory speech late Saturday night, Nagin praised President Bush.
"You and I have probably been the most vilified politicians in the country. But I want to thank you for moving that promise that you made in Jackson Square forward," Nagin said.

Okay Chris - So you're saying that both the Democrats and the Republicans (re your post in Nagin Re-Elected) are the National White People's Party? If that's the case, I guess we're all just screwed. |

To Chris: That's what I've been trying to tell you since I got here, you idiot.A vote for a republican is a vote for the plantation.A vote for a democrat is a vote for everlasting poverty and ignorance.Get up off of your fat, gay ass and use what little notoriety you have accumulated to help organize a campaign for a person with some character and integrity that will actually try to do a little something to the people's advantage instead of lining their own pocket. |

Rustang --
Well, (pl)antation comes before (po)verty, so flip a coin, or suffer the inevitable.
Katrina showed the world just how ineffective and ignored black leadership in the United States is (i.e., CBC, Jackson, Sharpton, Conyers and the whole sad bunch). Even more so, she turned the socio-economic argument on its head while the news media took the forefront in perpetuating the most pathetic images of a black America that many wish could be all but forgotten.

Rustang, have you ever see the movie "The Candidate?" It starred Robert Redford and came out way back in the 1970s. This film depicted how, through a well-orchestrated campaign, a grass roots candidate is put in office by a constituency of idealists, hoping for change. It ends with the senator-elect at a total loss as to what to do next... Who said the pathway to hell is paved with good intentions? And, yeah, I know. I'm a pessimist. :[ |

Look at this. Even in the midst of a political discussion Rustang/Cynique can't keep his/her mind off my ass. If I wasn't a RIGHTEOUS black man I might get the swelled head. |

If you weren't so short-sighted, chrishayden, you would be able to distinguish between the comments posted by Cynique and those posted by Rustang. You see things that aren't there, and read things into what is said because you are miffed and frustrated over being left out of the loop. Poor ol fella. |

Yeah, and then your swollen head would compliment your humongous ass.You need to drop some of that righteousness and get some rightness in your life.I realize that you think it's to your advantage to have your masters keep their foot on the neck of black america, but at some point you really ought to consider trying to use your position to accomplish something meaningful, instead of just advising the ignorant to just keep on waiting for the Good Lord to come back and then he'll straighten all of this out.I say fuck you and the Good Lord.Become an agent of right, not the white man's pawn.You waste your life pumping out daydreams when you could be making the world a little bit better place for people to live.Dog droppings are more useful than you are. |

I don't know about dog droppings, but I'm afraid the Democratic politicians are (squawk, squawk) chicken shits.
That said, for them this was a no brainer. Much like donning a flack jacket and going hunting just before an election to alienate your anti-NRA constituents.
I don't see Dean as any competition for any Republican. If we don't come up with a man who passionately believes in equality and humanity, we are 'screwed'. Does anyone think Hillary has a chance? I am doubtful.

How about a Al Gore and Obama ticket? Too Liberal for the neocons? Or a match made at the democratic convention. |

Still snapping at people's ankles, chrishayden, yapping for attention, hoping somebody will throw you a bone to compensate for the hurt you are experiencing at being rejected and dismissed as a repulsive creature of no merit. 1 X chris = 0. LMAO. |

Don't be so hard on him, Cynique.He's just playing the hand the god's dealt him.It's very difficult for a mentally retarded obese gay black man to make it in this world.Just ask him.He would know. |
