However, Cochran is only the symptom...the poor guy is merely a puppet; this virus has to be ripped out of the republican party and Cochran is as good a place as any to start.
To make it easy, why couldn't the voters just vote for the 3rd party candidate? Also, my apologies for thinking you and others over reacted on election night. Once everything became clear a few days later, I realized I was wrong.

There’s still a chance for McDaniel to achieve his rightful place on the ballot as the Republican candidate. But, failing that, defeating the despicable Cochran and the amnesty minded Mississippi GOPe is our major priority and must be achieved AT ANY COST.
The only way to insure that Cochran is defeated is to VOTE FOR CHILDERS. A vote for a 3rd party is simply a “not a Cochran vote” but a vote for Childers actually nullifies the vote of some misguided soul who is voting for the “lesser of two evils”.
Defeat Cochran by voting for Childers. We must NOT allow the GOPe’s evil deeds in Mississippi to be rewarded with victory. If we do, it will become the modus operandi of the GOPe EVERYWHERE.
Unfortunately, Dave, third party runs have a deadline that has long since passed.
Cochran is being controlled by the Barbor/Hoseman/Bryant machine to ensure they always have a RINO incumbent bringing the pork home. They’ll have Thad retire to be replaced by one of their goons soon enough.
I’m glad you have identified this as the cancer it is, and I in turn apologize if my own comments were hotheaded on election night and since. After all these years, 2010, 2012, and now 2014, with Karl Rove and his friends working like hell to destroy decent men and women, citizen candidates and small town conservative politicians with every smear tactic in the book that they dare not use against Democrats... I really have a short fuse when it comes to this kind of thing.
Nobody here will advocate voting for the Democrat, but not voting in that particular election is a real option
