How so? Hard to see a white Democrat beat a black Republican in Wyoming.

True, but then, what Black Republicans?  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there are any in the State Legislature.

     Wyoming is a pretty white state though. A lack of black Republicans isn't really surprising, whether or not there is a serious problem with racism there.

Well, my point is that we have to weigh Black population in a state in the equation.  So yeah, you may have read my response a bit wrong.

     Yeah, I didn't read the tone of your post correctly. I see that that is what you were getting at now.
