Lynn, I will disagree with one point.  David Wilson didn't damage his party.  His party could have benefited from this event by voting in favor of censure.  They could have said that he doesn't represent his party and that their party will not support racism.  But for political purposes, most Republicans voted no!  Those Republicans damaged their party more than David Eastman. David Eastman just gave those Republicans the opportunity to say they won't stand up against racist comments by another Republican.
