Cynthia McKinney, sole vocal Israeli critic on the Hill has no worries in primary this week

Will Georgia Voters Give Cynthia McKinney a Pass? says the headline in TIME magazine reviewing Cynthia McKinney as she heads into the July 18 Democratic primary.

The principal concern is to see how this feisty lady "crazy like a fox" as they say in Georgia fares, faced with implacable opposition by AIPAC and it's many allies.

AS TIME explains ...."Controversy has surrounded McKinney before. In the wake of the 9/ 11 attacks, she sparked outrage when she challenged the popular decision by New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani to refuse $10 million in relief funds from Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal because he linked the attacks to U.S. support for Israel. She wrote to the prince, apologized for Giuliani's rebuff and said she could use his money to help African-Americans. Fomenting more ill will, she later suggested that the Bush administration may have had advance knowledge about the attacks. This energized pro-Israel activists, long critical of McKinney's voting record on the Jewish state, and in 2002 she was upset in the Democratic primary by Denise Majette. She regained the seat two years later after Majette opted for an unsuccessful Senate bid."

Lord Patel's money is on Cynthia even if AIPAC have hi-jacked the Democratic Party.
