/Cynthia McKinney has identified half a dozen culprits for her defeat. Let's just enumerate a few that she has blamed:
Black Churches
Voting Machines
Crossover Republicans
"Comatose" Black Politics
Media
Whites
Jews
Anti-Feminists
I think I may have missed a culprit or two, or maybe disaggregated Republicans and Whites.
But Ms. McKinney has one major reason that she has overlooked:
Her own outspoken impolitic extremist views on a number of issues. Angela Davis on methamphetamines, perhaps. And the widespread perception that her physical assault on a Capitol policeman may indicate that she is temperamentally and emotionally unfit for any public office, outside of perhaps dogcatcher.
Hopefully, this emotionally-disturbed agitator's political career has come to a timely end.
"Much have I seen and known; cities of men And manners, climates, councils, governments, ...the fortune of us that are the moon's men doth ebb and flow like the sea, being govern'd, as the sea is, by the moon" [Henry IV, I.ii.31-33] HISTORY NEVER REPEATS ITSELF, BUT IT OFTEN RHYMES "There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America." Otto von Bismarck
