KBH in her disastrous campaign for TX Governor's Mansion in 2010.

Perry kicked her expletive BIGLY.

Some people thought her chance was in 2006.

What is really embarrassing is that after being given an incredibly lucky gift in maintaining their trifecta after the 2010 elections, Arkansas Democrats proceeded to pass some of the dumbest redistricting maps possible and guaranteed their annihilation in the next election.

Instead of taking prevailing macro political trends into account and shoring up seats they could hold in predominantly black areas and major cities, they tried to protect as many white rural incumbents as possible and ended up with nothing to show for it.

If they had been smart, Arkansas would have a 3-1 R US House delegation right now. Instead, it has a 4-0 R delegation.

The AR Dems were really STUPID weren't they ?

Then-CA State Treasurer Kathleen Brown (D) was leading in the polls against then-CA Governor Pete Wilson (R) during the 1994 elections, before Wilson's violent race-baiting against illegal immigration & affirmative action (which got eliminated in 1996 Prop 209) resulted in Wilson's landslide reelection.
