WILL TAG TEAMING BE ENOUGH TO DEFEAT HERENTON?


Randy Wade administrator of the Memphis office for Congressman Steve Cohen is a candidate for Shelby County Sheriff. Wade who spent over 20 years with the sheriff's department announced last week that he and the congressman will be campaigning together. Could this be a smart campaign maneuver or a sure way to divide his support.


It is my opinion that Wade should run his own race and leave Cohen to battle Willie Herenton for the congressional seat alone. The appearance that he can not win without Cohen,or Cohen can't win without him will divide his support among those who will be choosing sides in the Cohen Herenton battle. With the number of candidates in the race for sheriff both Black and White the votes will be split enough as it is. But with several Black candidates in the race Wade's chances of winning lessens when those who support Herenton choose not to vote for him because he's attached to Cohen's hip.


The thought that tag teaming with Cohen gives Wade an edge looks good to those who support the congressman.But to those who don't it appears that Wade is not being his own man. Randy Wade and I have been friends for nearly 30 years and will be friends after the campaign is over but it is my thought that he should have allowed the congressional candidates to campaign on their own remaining neutral and placing his total attention on running his own campaign instead of appearing to be carrying water for Cohen in the Black community.

They both pander. So, wtf?

Look at Wilbert's record and look at Stevie's record.

Both suck.

Wade may as well help Congressman Cohens.At least Wade will have done something construtive while missing the boat twice. Of all the things he could find to do -a two timer looser.

It's racism as practiced by Matthews is one of the reasons that the black race has not prospered. Just give a gander at the life of Thaddeus Matthews for proof positive.

Well, when you were "attached to Cohen's hip" last year, it didn't help you any.

Randy Wade is now & always a nigger for White Folks. He was Barksdale's nigger, He was AC Gilles' nigger & Jack Owens nigger & would have been Lutrell's nigger if he could have been.Lutrell didn't want him so Stevie got him a GOOD nigger.

Thad, maybe you are a sexist and can't stand a strong, conservative black woman. I am thinking that.

Practicing conservationism is what is going to lift the black community out of their misery.

The pandering, black and white, Democrat folks haven't done shit and will never....they can't!

People have to do it themselves and that IS NOT what the Democrat Party stands for..........they want you hooked on the gov'ment teat so that you will stay dependent upon them and they remain in power........you are their modern day slaves.

TRUTH!

WHY ARE YOU SO BLIND?

WHITE AIN'T RIGHT said...

No need to give ANY attention to white people Thaddeus. You know white babies grow up to be white adults. We need to pass out more free abortion coupons to white kids. Get them all in the bucket. We gotta keep up the black superior race. And don't NOBODY tell me theres nice white people out there. Who cares. They are still white. And white ain't right, period.

It's time for the voters of Memphis to send out a message that tells worthless candidates to get lost, to tell decent candidates that they can run for office without being tainted by the likes of candidates such as Reginald French who has slashed tires of motorist, been fired from police departments and is the type of person that should be behind bars instead of harassing women and ripping off taxpayers from his phony contract with Willie where he was no more than getting a too big a slice of a political favor for computer work that is way over his crime infested head along with being over priced and full of bugs.

Make sure that FRENCH is soundly DEFEATED so that decent people from the community will start running for office. Would you want to work for this worthless thug?

But they are careful about whom they reproduce with. For this reason, they become smarter every generation.
