Cochran’s reprehensible tactics turned me totally anti-incumbant or Tea Party

A minor point here, but one would have to have a soul in the first place in order to ‘search it.’

Democratic Party = Communists

Republican Party = Old Democratic Party

Tea Party = Old Republican Party

And why do this for a candidate who is showing signs of dementia and will be 83 years old by the time this term ends.

Anybody interested in letting the Republican National Committee know what they think: http://www.gop.com/contact-us/
Only takes a minute and better than doing nothing. Have at it.

It is at least somewhat encouraging that some staffers and Senators in DC are worried about what Thad did, and moreover, considering not supporting the NRSC if they ever get involved in primaries again.

I’m practically anti-GOP after this.

Between the House elevating McCarthy and the Senate’s stunt with Cochran, I’ll be voting GOP at the state level and the rest can pound sand.

So, where does that leave you with Ted Cruz?

I just wrote the Republican National Committee and basically told them to go perform a physically impossible act on themselves.

His staff and the lobbyists control him. I don’t really understand how it all works, but I do know Thad all by himself isn’t worth all this to anyone.

I appreciate the way you keep posting that link. Yesterday I taunted them over their pyrrhic victory. Today I called them Kamikazes...who had awakened the sleeping giant. I still haven’t mentioned their ‘bridge too far’. I’ll plan to use that one next time.

We need to push Thad Cochran to quit the race. I thought his story about farm animals showed he was senile.

The GOP needs to talk him into quiting for health reasons. Then he can bow out gracefully. The base of the Republican party is in revolt. The GOP elites better wake up.

DO YOUR FUND RAISING WITH MISSISSIPPI DEMOCTATS!
SEE HOW WELL THAT WORKS FOR YOU!!

Thanks for posting that. I already did, two days ago and it was not a pleasant love note. I hate them with a passion I thought I never could attain.

Here in Indiana, Richard Lugar was 82 when we decided enough was enough. We chose a man in the primaries that beat him, but stepped on his uh... and the leftist media based in Indianapolis (sorry Indians...) excoriated him over some ill conceived words.

We subsequently elected a 'moderate' Democrat.

Buyers remorse settled in quite quickly...

I cannot answer for others,
but if Cruz runs as a Republican, I will NOT vote for him. If Sarah Palin runs as a Republican, I will not vote for her.
I no longer vote for Republicans.
