Cochran doesn’t seem to be mentally up for even the easy “challenge” of being a long time Senator.
Likely Thad will resign for medical reasons shortly and another Republican will be appointed awaiting a new election.
The appointee could be McDaniels or at the very least McDaniels will be a big frontrunner in the election to replace the resigned Cochran.
Voting for the dem, ANY dem, will give help to Reid and nobama. Sitting out THIS IMPORTANT ELECTION will be the same as voting dem.
