What’s so depressing is that these tactics work.
As long as the voting public allow themselves to be swayed by ads that appeal to the lowest common denominator, they’re going to wind up with a government similar to the one they have now.
Candidates that run low-class campaigns tend to become low-class politicians after the election.
The LCD in this case is estimated to be 35,000 black democrats. Without them, Chris would stomped Thad. The Cochran/Barbour bunch stooped lower than anything I have ever seen by our party. Thad slapped us conservative Mississippians in the face so hard I cannot see us ever recovering. He made every racist accusation in the Dem book against us. Sat., Sun. and Mon. he spent a ton of money printing flyers, getting newspaper articles, paying for robo-calls and volunteer live calls to smear and slander the Tea Party.
FUTC! FUHB!
I'm so damned mad I cannot think straight this day!
