Would some people rather have Parker Griffith represent them in Congress than a black man?

Left in Alabama promoted a diary by blogger caterwaul begging democrats to be bad for one day and vote for Parker Griffith although he is an idiot , get this, he  is a much less hideous prospect than Mo Brooks, and, because democratic candidate, C.L. Holley, doesn't stand a chance of defeating Mo Brooks because he's well...a black man (my words).

Want to get rid of Mo Brooks? You can do it in the primary: Cast your vote for Parker Griffith. This is probably the only chance to dispose of Mo, because in the general he would almost surely defeat Mr. Holley. However Mr. Holley would have a fighting chance against Griffith.
In an unprecedented shift many local candidates have switched to the Republican party. The politicians have seen the writing on the wall and they have switched parties. There are no more conservative Democrats in the South. They are all now Republicans. The only hope a citizen has of having an impact in an election is by voting in the Republican primary.

No! No! No!  The only hope a citizen has of having an impact in an election is by voting your conscience.  Stop voting for or against candidates based on the color of their skin, or the party they affiliate with. Vote for candidates based on the content of their agenda/platform.

What countrycat said! Emphasis mine

When you go to the GOP primary to vote for the least crazy candidate, what happens?  You strengthen the GOP's appeal to moderate and independent voters.  How many Democrats crossed over in the runoff to vote for Bob Riley instead of Roy Moore for governor?
I know this Parker Griffith thing is different, but it's still a bad idea and the large number of local Democrats jumping on board really annoys me.  Are you planning to ONLY vote for Griffith or will you vote in all the other contested races as well?
And if you do, will you be voting for "the crazy" or for the most moderate candidates?
If you vote for the moderates (or what passes for moderate in the Alabama GOP), you're doing your part to strengthen the ALGOP and marginalize the ADP.

Enough!  It's time for the people to stand up to the right wing crazies, not become them.  C.L. Holly can win if we vote for him.  There is no need for democrats to stain our soul by signing the gop book.  This is what emboldens and enables the Parker Griffiths and the Mo Brooks.
