It
appears that the sins of the son have derailed the political career of
the mother as Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick's tenure in Congress came to a
stunning end last night when she was beaten by Sen. Hansen Clarke in
Michigan's Democratic primary. The Congresswoman has served in Congress
since 1996 and raised up to 3 times more money than her opponent, but
was still soundly beaten according to the Detroit Free Press.
Cheeks
Kilpatrick's son is now infamous Kwame Kilpatrick who destroyed all
political credibility of the Kilpatrick name. Despite the money that
she spent, it would've been surprising for Cheeks Kilpatrick to survive
political baggage left by her son.
