Mississippi Goddam!

Cindy the Supremacist won the runoff for the U.S. Senate seat from Mississippi.  Not a surprise -- she was heavily favored.  Her opponent Mike Espy lost with 46% of the state's vote, a slightly higher percentage than the 44% Obama received in 2012.   That might be a small sign of small progress, but it's still a shame.

Hyde-Smith said she'd be in the front row for a public lynching, then said she was only "joking."  So that's not racist.

She made another "joke" about voter suppression, calling it "a great idea."  That's not racist either.

Cindy attended a segregated, all-white high school "academy" created expressly to avoid any contact with black people.  She sent her daughter to one as well.  But that's not racist.

Wearing a Civil War Confederate uniform cap, she posed for a photo with the caption, "Mississippi history at its best!"  That's not racist.

Fake president tRump is an unabashed racist who won Mississippi in 2016 by 18 points.  Cindy is a proud fan of the Cheeto Benito, a 100% loyal supporter.  But she's not a racist.

Mississippi still has the old Confederate flag as part of its state flag.  But that's not racist.

Most white Mississippians still can't bring themselves to vote for any black candidate, no matter what.  The state has never elected a black person to statewide office.  But hey, that's just Mississippi, that's not racist.

White Mississippians seem to believe that since they no longer keep slaves, they can't possibly be racists.

Yes, they can.  Mississippi goddam!
