RE: Thad Cochran cheated and played the race card.
He played the race card, yes,
But how is working within the stupid primary rules ( i.e. allowing DEMOCRATS to vote in a Republican primary ) cheating?
Conservatives should run in both primaries in red states.
Open or closed primaries couldn’t stop a conservative from getting on the Nov ballot that way.
Two conservatives would have to agree to run, and flip a coin on which primary each ran in.
When one of them won a primary, all the support would switch to that candidate in Nov. If the conservative wins that they switch to Ind!

He knew he couldn’t win the runoff among Republican voters so he had to resort to breaking the law by urging Democrat voters who had already voted in their respective party primary to participate in the runoff. That’s not only cheating, that’s illegal in the state of Mississippi.
No person shall be eligible to participate in any primary election unless he intends to support the nominations made in the primary in which he participates.Not enforcible, but it is the law.
