Onward to victory. My prediction is Cochran refuses to debate as media calls grow louder. He loses credibility, and then loses the runoff by 8 points.
Wow! It sure is a good thing Santorum showed up to give McDaniels that little extra oomph over Cochran!
Sorry...McDaniel.
I heard today the GoP e won’t support Cochran from here. They won’t support McDaniel either, but he’s done with out them.
That was just Karl Rove’s group. The RSC is all in.
Who is done?
Well. We’ll see.
Watching this one.
Not is, has.
He has done without them, as in he hasn’t needed them thus far.
Looks like Boss Hogg(Haley Barbour) and his clan could not gin up
enough votes in Hinds County to overtake McDaniel. Even a 3 hour delay
in reporting the final 25% of Hinds County, which gave them plenty of time
to gin up votes, wasn’t enough.
We will soon find out by the type of ads Boss Hogg runs against McDaniel
in the runoff if the GOP really wants a majority in the senate or has been
lying all along.
American Crossroads said it wouldn’t be involved.
Well the GOP should at least be happy there is a tea party republican in the senate instead of a democrat.
If McConnell is lagging in Kentucky, the powers may way to husband funds for McConnell. However, with Obama's coal regulations, Grimes has been sacrificed on the alter of Obama.
DAGNABIT! WHO???!
Cochran?
McDaniel?
I agree with your script but I'll double your margin to 16 pts. Cochran's lost the national GOPe. His base will lose heart and enthusiasm is all on McDaniels' side. This is the dynamic we've seen repeatedly in TX runoffs and it has resulted in blowouts more often than not [of course, Cochran is no Dewhurst - to his credit].
Have you heard any calls for a debate?
I’m wondering if McConnell will use the coal attacks to beat Grimes. It certainly ends any hope for Natalie Tennant in West Virginia.
Who is Thomas Carey going to endorse? :-)
Give it time. Cochran has no legitimate excuse to refuse to debate a man who bested him in the first round
Phooey.
Cochran ran in the primary as the GOPe guy. McDaniel ran as the Tea Party fave, without GOPe support.
Some pundit said GOPe would be pulling support from Cochran from here, presumably as they were not hopeful as McDaniel forced the runoff.
McDaniel has done fine without GOPe support so far
