That last paragraph says it all.
Sure they’ll likely appoint one of their boys, but there will be a soon election to re-fill the seat and that is where McDaniels will win.
Idiots with more than a 85 IQ know that if “your boy” the dem gets elected, he will stay at least 6 years.
I once again, refer you to my Post #61. Anyone who would try to refute that would have to have the IQ of a can of Spam. If you think that “Boss Hog” Barbour would let Chris McDaniel take the Senate seat that one of his nephews was holding after all that he went through to get him in that seat, you really are naive.
