Wow, you must have no clue what went on in Mississippi. You need to try and talk JR into an edit function and erase your question. It’s embarrassing.

Barbour is a Rove guy, but Rove is also a Barbour guy. They’re a duo in the truest sense of the word when it comes to guiding GOP strategy.

And yes, forcing Rove to step away from Barbour out of shame would be a win.

Phil Bryant has been complacent in all of this and I hope he is primaried and removed next election.

It’s reported that Cochran paid $15 a head for “turn out” votes. I think maybe McDaniel and the rest of the country have a problem with candidates paying for “turn out” votes.

Mississippi bump, though I don’t know why what Lott thinks matters.

HELL YEAH!!! Whatever has to be done, even voting for the Conservative Democrat, Travis Childers, must be done to keep the senile, old fart, Thad Cochran from winning now and giving this seat to one of the Barbour boys in a year from now.

“I also have asked myself — after what I saw happen in Mississippi this very year — would I have that kind of challenge? Because I had been accused as someone who would make a deal, or [be] willing to compromise to get a result.

What Trent doesn't seem to understand is that Tea Partiers are not challenging the GOP for being willing to make a deal, from time to time. We're challenging the GOP because they have made it a HABIT! The GOP no longer stands against Democrat ideas; they are incorporating them into their actions on a daily basis. As a result, their 'willingness to compromise' has created the economic problems we've experienced in the past 10 years, and put this country into the worst debt position in our history.

THESE are the main reasons the Tea Party has worked so hard against both Democrats and Republicans, but mainly Repubs. because they are SUPPOSED to be the party of smaller, less intrusive government, and they've let that slide for far too long.
