We had a chance to get rid of this guy. Probably his staff, a la Strom Thurmond during his last term, is running the entire show and all Cochran doing is pushing the vote button.

Cochran has been in frail condition for about six to eight years. His chief-of-staff runs everything and based on what is said....houses Cochran in an apartment of her own house. Pretty lousy mess but that’s the GOP method in Mississippi.
To: C19fan
McCain will and is becoming the same way.
His constituents have basically lost representation but hey they voted for him.

I don’t know anything about the governor....is he a Rino Gope? This would influence who he would appoint to replace Sad Cochran
To: Vaquero
Yes...you are right on, both John McCain and Thad Cochran must retire today. They are not sound in mind and are and they are clearly dying right before our very eyes.

It would be nice to remove what are essentially carbon blobs at this point, and replace them with actual Conservative Republicans. Send Menendez to the slam and let Christie replace him, that’d be a pretty good year.

25 Senators in their 70’s and above. Isn’t that a bit much? Age limits.

Sad when they refuse to retire, same for McCain - actually it’s pathetic.

There is a long standing tradition for senators to die in office.
Politicians are the frontmen for a con. They are the face, the people behind the scenes run the show.

Just like toddlers throwing a tantrum at bedtime. “I won’t go! I won’t go!” Stamping their feet and holding their breath.
TERM LIMITS NOW!

YES! I hope Trump will get the ball rolling on this problem.
To: C19fan
It sounds like Ruth Buzzi Ginsberg might be his “role model”. Hang in there as long as you can still fog a mirror.

Bryant is not a rino
He is culturally conservative and supported Ted Cruz
But it is mississippi and the Haley Barbour GOP machine is omnipotent
