Republican Mia Love tries for Congress

On Facebook I link a lot to information confronting Gundamentalists. And Tea Party Republicans.

Both are generally bad for the USA. Bad for the world.

One of my themes is that Republicans must CHANGE or LOSE, long term.

The GOP needs prominent candidates of colour. Pro science. Fiscal conservatives, not shills for corporations and billionaires. Pro immigration. In support of Gay marriage.

Here’s one who looks promising.

On May 18, 2013, Love announced that she would run again in 2014. If elected, she would be the first Haitian American and first black female Republican ever elected to Congress, as well as the first from the state of Utah. …

Love favors “fiscal discipline, limited government, and personal responsibility.” She has also said that she asks herself three questions whenever she approaches an issue, “Is it affordable? Is it sustainable? Is it my job?” …

I’m sure she’s not perfect. But she gives me hope that Republicans can recover, eventually, from Tea Party insanity.
