Socialist Candidate Leading In Seattle City Council Race
[link to seattletimes.com]
Kshama Sawant seized a narrow lead over longtime Seattle City Councilmember Richard Conlin on Tuesday, a week after an election night in which most assumed she had lost.

Sawant, who would be the council’s first socialist member in modern history, led by 41 votes — 79,751 to 79,710 — in updated vote totals.

“I think we have shown the strongest skeptics that the Socialist label is not a bad one for a grassroots campaign to succeed". -Kshama Sawant

-I know, everyone sees Seattle and thinks, it's a Liberal mess already. Locally she is known as a very vocal socialist activist. She once was a software engineer. She was not even born in America. Very well educated. But now It's out of control. Just a personal issue. I think I might actually be considering moving out of the region soon. I'll keep this updated.

I'm sure you are correct. But she is the first openly and self called Socialist. It's shows the mentally of the public. I think there's somewhat a difference of a person voting for a Liberal. Then a person knowingly voting for a true Socialistic person.

Only a Ron Paul loving WEIRDO could believe that.

Here's one that is TRUE.

Ayn Rand - Anton Levay - Church of Satan

Ayn Rand's philosophy was used by Anton Levay
when he wrote the Satanic Bible.

The Church of Satan not only admits it is a
Libertarian organization but it also gives Ayn
Rand the credit she deserves for thier Bible.

Glad I left ten years ago after selling at the high tide mark or there about.

Seattle couldn't put on a riot if they had to- heck, Seattle is more like a suburb of Bellevue. Why not just rip the rest of the old buildings down and stucco the whole place, dress like Paris Hilton, and act like the city is now some type of library.

This is Seattle we are talking about, go look at her platform - EVERY single position she has has been espoused by fellow members on the council.

So, who is more stupid? Someone who knowingly votes for a "socialist", or someone who votes for a "democrat" that holds the exact same beliefs, or someone who votes for a "republican" who postures in not having those beliefs - and then votes in support of them every time?

You are naive and have some waking up to do - it is called divide and conquer, oldest trick in the book.

One more thing, it is odd to me that EVERY SINGLE DAY people of the USA forfeit 1 out of 2 of their dollars they earn in some form to the government to be redistributed to others, and yet don't realize that this IS A FULL OUT SOCIALIST country. Don't kid yourselves. I don't support it at all, but at least I can recognize the R-D congame. Given enough time in power, Libertarians would be at the trough as well. It is the human condition.
