While polls haven't been that accurate lately (heh heh!), I hope this one is true!

In any case, it's better to have a poll right before the election that shows you way ahead than neck and neck.

Have to wonder how much money Thad has spent so far on campaign.

Good news but I don’t buy the 4% undecided. Even the dedicated FM listeners have had to be exposed to the race and must have some opinion or maybe they tapped into the state hospital pool of respondents. One never knows for sure.

When a Republican has to try to buy votes from Democrat Blacks in Mississippi, you know he’s on his way out the door. Whoever ran Cochran’s campaign is an idiot.

Got a visit by a polite young man yesterday afternoon - bringing leaflets for McDaniel and willing to spend time to talk about it. I'm already "in the bag" for McDaniel, but it's good to see the sort of folks getting out to talk him up. I keep getting the nagging worry that the dark side will pull something off for Cochran, but it's looking better and better.

Here's to McDaniel winning the runoff by 10%......

It’s not any kind of victory until the seat goes to the Republican, the real election isn’t until November.

If Thaddy doesn’t win , don’t be surprised the GOPe doesn’t run him as a write in.

Forget polls. McDaniel should win by over 90%. Otherwise, there’s more work to be done to convince the electorate that these elitist criminals need to go (every election cycle if necessary).

Ballot box BUMP!

Cochran desperately needs to expand his voting base and is depending on crossover Democrat votes.

Obama is pleased as punch that Republican Cochran recently endorsed Obamacare....since lock-stepping Democrats who voted for it en masse, are running way from the debacle as fast as their Dummy legs can carry them.

In an interview at a campaign stop, over-the-hill befuddled Cochran called the Obamacare debacle “an example of an important effort by the federal government to help make health care available, accessible and affordable.” “I’m glad to be involved in that effort,” Cochran added enthusiastically.

"I urge Democrats to vote, for Thad. I need Thad to help me get
another trillion dollars from Congress so that all Americans can
have affordable health care. "

"Thad will help me release a couple dozen more
Gitmo terrorists to live a life of luxury in Quatar."

"Thad Cochran is one of my favorite Congressman. "
"I heartily endorse his reelection."
He will ensure Obamacare reaches every American."

The poll, conducted on Friday night, surveyed 697 GOP primary voters and has a margin of error of 3.8 percent—a number McDaniel’s 8-point lead is well outside of.

Which means the wild card is how many Dems turn out and vote for Cochran. If he wins the runoff because of that I don't see how the GOP survives the rift.

Maybe the Tea Party should commandeer the battle cry "YES WE CAN!"

What’s all that stuff the MSM put out about the Tea Party being finished? Could they have been wrong?

Don’t slack off, McDaniel people. There’s an old saying that if the polls say you’re a million votes ahead, campaign as though you’re a million votes behind.

I'm hoping for a landslide victory for McDaniel so the establishment RINO’s and Democrats get a clear message that the majority of US citizens have reached the Rubicon. We need a complete dialysis of the Senate and Congress.

But Brett Favre (pronouned favour i think) and Haley Barbour (pronounced Bar Burr) both endorsed the freakin RINO! What’s wrong with you insubordinate Mississippians! Brett and Haley have spoken dag nab it! Now pay heed to your football and political leaders! And maybe you’ll get a shiny new pair of wranglers. Just like the ones Brett Favour wears in those cool commercials.

Cochran had zero chance when McDaniel forced the runoff, which makes you wonder about the desperation from the establishment.

Best news I've seen or heard out of Mississippi since I 1st heard about a challenger for Cochran's seat. Now if we can get an actual conservative Repub elected here in GA to take Chambliss's seat I'll be a happy camper. Or at least I will unless I find out the hard way that whoever wins his seat is an equally ineffective middle of the roader as Chambliss and his pardner in crime Isakson have been.

Maybe I'm not talking to the typical GA voter in conversations within my little circle of political prognosticators, but based on what I hear I have to believe that a real dyed-in-the-wool conservative Republican would win by such a lopsided margin that the Dimwits wouldn't even bother to field a candidate next time around.
