It’s like this. Their victories are because we failed. Their defeats are just bad luck.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

I reject the author’s premise.

[wintertime]

I am completely and totally pissed. I bet a lot of other conservatives are, too! This will have non-neutral consequences.

[DanielRedfoot]

Comments? Are you trying to get me banned? ;- )

[Viennacon]

It’s like this. They cheated. The voter fraud is now too large to ignore

[Star Traveler]

That’s one thing you don’t want to do ... say something that will give adequate “ammunition” that will galvanize the opposition against you. You have to be smart and it’s a fine line there.

[Hostage]

It wasn’t the Tea Party that woke up the voter fraud, it was Cochran.

[ViLaLuz]

Puro pedo.

[Louis Foxwell]

Some folks have to stay up nights in drunken stupors to reach the level of fantasy exemplified by this screed. No amount of stealth was going to allay the fears of the power mongers in DC in their efforts to stir up a hornet's nest of racist vitriol.

[PAR35]

when Sen. Thad Cochran asked Democrats, black voters especially, to support him.

He didn't ask for the black vote. He bought - or at least rented - them from their owners on the Democrat plantation.

[Vendome]

Froma Haridan. . .

[Waryone]

Pay no attention to the Cochran campaign making vile Robo calls behind the curtain.
It was the TEA party who got the blacks all riled up. /s

[Tzimisce]

I can’t wait to see Democrat Campaign commercials from MS this Oct/Nov.

“Even Thad Cochrane himself thinks his base is racist”

[Tzimisce]

If I was a member of the American Left, I’d be writing condescending pieces like this too.

If conservative ideas really are so popular, why isn’t anyone stopping them?

Hell - why isn’t anyone even talking about stopping them?

I’d be laughing if I was a liberal too.

[WKB]

MS Ping. I am taking my pinger to the black smith tomorrow to get it sharpened

[gorush]

The liberals have been winning for decades. Yet they are more pissed off now than ever. Liberalism does not engender happy people. Their world view does not comport with reality and that causes angst.

[RitaOK]

What off-ramp has Harrop taken this time? Delusion must be bliss. It’s been going around a lot lately.

[kaehurowing]

I don’t want to hear talk from politicians. McDaniel needs to file voter fraud charges against the election.

[paintriot]

Add me please.
