mile 181

I was sorry that Mike Espy lost the Mississippi runoff election for US senate, but not surprised. He got more votes than either Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton did, so I suppose we should celebrate that.

Even so, I wos hoping he would do even better.

I was disappointed at some of the commentary, which I thought was inaccurate.

I am an old white guy from Mississippi. I would like to set a few things straight about the state.

On a personal note, Espy is from Yazoo City, a place I know well. My paternal grandparents, my father and my brother were all born there. Many family members are buried in the cemetery.

I will work on trying to clear the record. It may take a while.
