Sen. Thad Cochran has shifted his support to Sen. John McCain for president. Cochran made the announcement in a statement Thursday after his first choice, former Massachusetts governor, Mitt Romney, dropped out of the Republican race.
Mississippi's other senator, Roger Wicker, a Republican, had endorsed former Tennessee senator, Fred Thompson, who has also withdrawn from the race. Wicker has not announced his support for another candidate.
GOP Cong. Chip Pickering endorsed McCain last year. Cong. Bennie Thompson, a Democrat, has endorsed fellow Democrat, Barack Obama for president.

IMO this is wha turned Romney away. The establishment wanted McCain. End of story.
You got it. I went out fer a smoke and already the posts are rollin’ in.
I can’t believe all the folks out there suffering from battered voter syndrome. McCain just recently said he’d sign the immigration bill if it hit his desk. The RNC and all of these “lifer politicians” have to be taught a lesson. You people can’t hear McCain whining, “Please mommy . . . please . . . I promise to never ever do it again if you let me go to the whitehouse just this one last time”. Send the kid packing back to his corner in Arizona to cut his own sage switch and breakout the elephant ( or should is say RINO ) guns it’s time to put some hides on the wall.
He must be a RINO. They’re all RINOs. Everywhere I look I see RINOs.
It’s starting to sound like a lot of Roman senators who know Caligula is about to take the throne. Suck up, bow your head, and keep an eye on your congressional pension.
McShamnesty hasn't 'learned' a damn thing.
If any real conservatives fall for this cheesy line they deserve the government that's coming to them.
This ass-clown is giving us the collective finger, laughing all the way, and appeasers like you keep urging us to slurp down the Kool Aid.
Ain't gonna happen.
Be kind. It's the only arrow left in the McCain shills' quiver, really, by this point. ;)
Shhhhhhhh. We're all s'posed to pretend we never actually, y'know, noticed that.
Still waiting for McCain’s “maverick” to reveal himself.
So far, most have chosen to prostrate themselves.
Alot of “conservatives” are losing their will and their memories.
With a 2006 ACU rating of only 65 let`s review how liberal Songbird really is:
Mccain considered switching parties in 2001
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1963208/posts
McCain co sponsored an open borders bill S.1433 that would also give
Foreigners social security.
McCain is for tax payer funded embryonic stem cell research
The Keating 5
The gang of 14 that blocked judicial nominees
Mccain was against the Bush tax cuts
McCain even filed an amicus brief in support of his 1st amendment violating McCainFeingold BCRA
“...because §203 is UNCONSTITUTIONAL as applied to the advertisements before us, it is unnecessary to go further and decide whether §203 is unconstitutional on its face.”Opinion of ROBERTS, C. J
Pork barrel politics and pro-amnesty. Doesn't smell like much of a conservative to me.
Yup, his 2006 ACU record is 65...but he keeps talking about his overall record, must be the straight talk.
No endorsement in the world could make me vote for McCain, i’m writing in Reagan as others here have suggested.
Yeah...and pork-barrel politics and rewarding illegal invaders with amnesty are real hallmarks of the conservative tradition, I'm sure.
What good is the word of a serial liar?
and all I hear is chitter chatter chitter chatter
all this talk about smack and smack and smack
I can’t give it away on 7th avenue
I must be shattered
my brain’s in tatters
I’ve seen all that. Roberts is a fine judicial mind. Hillary or Obama’s picks would neuter Roberts however.
No, he has not. He says we sould deport the 2 (two) million criminal illegals. Guess what Mr McAmnesty, ALL of the (12 million plus) illegal aliens ARE criminals!!
