  undermining minority conservatives

contrary to the fabled VRWC, there is a very public concerted effort by democrats/liberals to undermine minority conservatives.

apparently, two members of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee went on a fishing expedition and got Lt Governor--and potential MD senate candidate--Michael Steele's credit report. the liberal establishment has been after steele for awhile, including name-calling and worse
The Baltimore Sun's editorial-page endorsement of the losing Democratic ticket in the 2002 election addressed the presence of a Republican candidate for lieutenant governor on the ballot with an astonishingly dismissive wave: "Michael S. Steele brings little to the ticket but the color of his skin." A state legislator dubbed Steele an "Uncle Tom." Activists brandished Oreo cookies in an orchestrated stunt at a campaign debate. A Maryland congressman dropped the word "token" while talking about Steele.
unfortunately, the savaging of minority conservatives has been a long-standing tradition. clarence thomas has been eloquently dubbed 'uncle thomas'--uncle tom appears to be a favorite slur. colin powell received similar treatment from a calypso singer....
the list goes on...
