Once she won that first State Senate, it was impossible for her to lose. Black voters have a long history of supporting black incumbents regardless of how crooked they are.

The only congressman who delivered money for the project is Carrie's son, Rep. Kendrick Meek. But I am supposed to believe that Kendrick did not know his mother was a lobbyist for Stackhouse and Kendrick never spoke with his mother about the project.

Hopefully that will end as the media is willing to/eager to expose it. Kendrick Meek isn't much better, he is just a generation behind on gaming the political system. Still, he is better than a man who made hundreds of millions scamming financial markets on credit default swaps.
