There is another guy running on the GOP Ticket besides McDaniel and Cochran; can't remember his name. Can someone win with a plurality or does someone have to get 50% to avoid a run-off?

I’m still not convinced that the nursing home deal wasn’t a false flag to build sympathy.

“Maybe Cochran’s time is just up.” You think, maybe? 40 years! Good grief!

McDaniel probably wasn't behind the decision to break into the nursing home where Cochran's invalid wife lives.

HE WAS NOT INVOLVED AT ALL.

Chris McDaniel is running a completely upbeat, positive campaign.

I personally know his one of his campaign manager's, too.

Those creeps did all that crap on their own.

*******************************************************************

A candidate in Mississippi this year needs to get 50% to avoid a runoff.

Do you suppose many voters didn’t know that this old goat is living with his “aide” while his wife languishes in that nursing home? Many Christians still think the promise he made to be faithful to her “Till death us do part” actually means till death.

After his surrender to Grant at Appomattox, Robert E. Lee went home to care faithfully for his invalid wife until her death. Then he cared for her sick mother until she too passed away. Duty was a guiding principle in Lee’s life. Today it’s the least appreciated of all the virtues.

I don’t know how anyone would gain an advantage by filming/photographing the invalid wife of one’s opponent.

Hence I don’t see why mcdaniel would be behind it.

Lone wacko did it imo.

why would anyone think that filming/photgraphing an opponent’s invalid wife would help?

But the clown crew behind this caper are very much his people.

If he hasn't already, McDaniel should come out and say these guys should be hung by their testicles from the nearest barn door.

***************

It’s a majority or 50% plus is my reading. The 3rd candidate, Thomas L Cary’
in one poll I saw had 3% or under and something like 12% were undecided. So in
effect the undecideds will make the outcome decision.

Here are some recent polls data and I’m sure there is other polls out there.

In short, Cochran's team really should have been able to use this to bury McDaniel. And somehow they haven't.

Maybe Thud's team wasn't sure at first that it might not have been one of HIS folks, trying to gin up sympathy.

Then there is the possibility that Cochran will pull a Murkowski.
