He is not required by law to make any records public to run for a House seat.

He is assuming there will be a landslide vote for Obama, and he will slide in on his coat tails. That is what is happening here.

Lord help us.

The great thing about America is freedom to be what you want to be. Most people try to achieve something good. The other side of the coin is that America's freedom allows slugs like Mackey to excel at being a Carnival Huckster, a Flim Flam Man. Mackey is a master at playing the game of Race Cards; his refusal to reveal anything about himself, or talk about his past, simply begs people to ask him questions and probe, then Mackey can declare racism. All of this would be completely un-important, and even comical, if not for the many ignorant people that will follow, and vote for, Mackey Louse because he's BLACK. These people are members of the the same "community" that won't snitch on the low functioning bottom feeders that shot a 12 year old kid at a party, and the same members of a "community" that knew Mackey had cheated, broken the law, yet supported him in his effort to steal the Sheriff's office. Hopefully, Mackey will never be elected to office, and move from the area to somewhere else where he can rip off the colossally stupid.

Sorry gang, but with my horrible attitude about how election 2008 went, I got a chuckle thinking about how this guy won a state seat!!!

Thought I'd share by resurrecting this thread.

This is insane. I just don't get why anyone would have voted for him. Seriously what did he bring to the table?

And Sunny thats not even funny. If he comes close to winning I am out.

Mackey's win is the biggest Democratic disappointment of this election season. My second choice is Republican Cherie Berry's apparent re-election. "Oh, you lost your fingers in that chicken-plucking machine?" "Here's $25 for your inconvenience." Failures by the electorate in both cases!
