Discussion for article #228059
“It is substantially in a minority district but it is not the minority district,” he said. “There’s less than 14 percent black American in this district.”
Ah, Hispanic outreach.
Pecking order.
The stupidity makes my head hurt. I am so tired of all these pathetic excuses for humans
"Nevada GOPer: I Didn’t Think I Could Win A ‘Minority District’ "
First thing he’s gotten right so far: He won’t win it.
** “It is substantially in a minority district but it is not the minority district,”** he said. “There’s less than 14 percent black American in this district.”
He then said many believe it’s a “black American” district “because there’s a black candidate.”
What…???
Gobbledygook, you say?
A Congressional district that’s 31% Hispanic, but only 22% of them are registered!?! In 2014!?! That’s the unforgivable take-away of this article! We rightly mock GOP outreach to Hispanics, but how about some Democratic outreach to register these potential voters?
Why waste this guy in a House race? Seems like GOP Senate material to me.
“It is substantially in a minority district but it is not the minority district,” he said. “There’s less than 14 percent black American in this district.”
I’m assuming English isn’t Mr. Hardy’s native language?
Here’s a thought on how to win the district: talk to the people who live there, find out what they want from their government, and sincerely promise to represent them in a quest to get it.
Just throwing out that crazy idea.
Well, taking Mitt’s words, it’s true. There is a percentage of the votes that he can never get. However, that reality is simply because he supports positions that those voters will never accept. It’s commonly called Clueless in America.
This happens to be the district where the infamous Bundy Ranch resides and its lunatic followers held forth. From what I read and seen Horsford has been stalwart standing up to their idocacy and for his embattled constituents who had to put up with their nonsense.
What an idiot.
Every once in a while, one of these Grumpy Old Party wind up toys lets slip a moment of truth. How can anyone listen to someone who talks like this, and then think about electing him to represent anyone but himself in Congress?
Remember that this piece of work is the best the GOP can find.
If that doesn’t send a shiver down your spine, and give you a knot in your stomach, then you are beyond help.
With comments like his I shouldn’t expect he’d win either.
Don’t try to understand him Chammy, it won’t do you any good.
Apparently the article was being generous in describing Mr Hardy’s derp as “thoughts.”
Just remember that Mesquite, NV is where Cliven Bundy’s ranch is. THAT should indicate the quality if this guy’s “base”.
14% black this, 31% Hispanic that, 22% registered Latino this, 47% are parasites that. This all adds up to you Mr. Hardy being a big fat zero!
By the way this district registered voters percentage isn’t that far off from what America look like. It’s bit more Latino heavy, but that is compensated by a smaller Asian-American percentage, but the white and black percentages are about spot on, so what does that say about you Mr. Hardy?
how many times does this guy have to shoot himself in the foot, before it must be surgically removed from his mouth?
Why? You got more to go on than the color of his skin?
That operation would be difficult… the doctors are having trouble assessing how he managed to insert the foot given the location of his head.
