Great Scott?

NPR profiles Tim Scott, a black Republican from North Carolina who's likely to win a seat in Congress this Tuesday. The story concludes on a sad note, as reporter Kathy Lohr interviews North Carolina resident Jamal Robbins, who says he won't vote for Scott because he feels the candidate's economic policies will benefit the rich. The GOP will never, ever reclaim its legacy as the party of Lincoln until gentlemen like Jamal Robbins look at Tim Scott not as a man who's for the rich, but as a man who's for him.
