JOHN FUND: Daughter of Haitian Immigrants Is GOP Congressional Nominee in Utah.

If she makes it to Congress, expect her to shake up the Congressional Black Caucus à la Florida’s Allen West. “I would join the CBC and try to take that thing apart from the inside out,” she told the Deseret News in January.

She explained that the current CBC membership is steeped in “demagoguery.” “They sit there and ignite emotions and ignite racism when there isn’t,” she said. “They use their positions to instill fear. Hope and change is turned into fear and blame. Fear that everybody is going to lose everything and blaming Congress for everything instead of taking responsibility.”

Mia Love is all about responsibility and holding people accountable. Should she win in November, it won’t take her long to be noticed on Capitol Hill.

Here’s my interview of Mia Love from a few weeks ago. Her favorite economist is Bastiat.

And let me stress that forcing Orrin Hatch into a primary, and getting Mia Love nominated, is a big win for the Tea Party in Utah. In 2010 they got rid of Bob Bennett, but they had the element of surprise on their side. They accomplished these successes in the face of extremely powerful and well-funded opposition from the establishment.
