Street Cred

The Left Wing Cracker pens an open letter to defeated Ninth District Congressional candidate Nikki Tinker:

You COULD have had a future here. Had you chosen to run for City Council and shown you were willing to pay your dues and establish yourself, while you might not have beaten Cohen this year, you would have had a better shot.

However, you chose a different path. You ran the sleaziest type of campaign imaginable, earning the enmity not only of the city, and the state, but you made yourself a national joke, a figure of contempt. However, Ms. Tinker, worst of all, with that style of campaigning, you embarrassed and insulted the very people whose votes you sought: African-Americans of the 9th District.

You tried to run as a STREET Candidate? Really? Listen here, sister girl, I’m twice as gangsta as you’ll EVER be, and I’m a 50-year-old white guy who calls himself the Cracker.
