“Fiery” McKinney Loses

Oh, but there’s some good news.

DECATUR, Ga. — Cynthia McKinney, the fiery Georgia congresswoman known for her conspiracy theories about the Sept. 11 attacks and the scuffle she had earlier this year with a U.S. Capitol Police officer, lost a runoff election Tuesday for her district’s Democratic nomination.

Attorney Hank Johnson, a former county commissioner, soundly defeated McKinney by more than 12,000 votes, winning 59 percent of the total vote. More than 70,000 votes were cast — 9,000 more than in the primary three weeks ago.

And how about that headline, huh? “Fiery”?

I suppose that the editors couldn’t quite manage “racist” or “anti-Semitic” or something that didn’t exactly put her in a good light.

So the anti-Semites and their gang are 1-1 today. Let’s see if that record holds up in the general election.
