I don’t think the battle is over yet - McDaniel has already found 1500 invalid votes from ONE county (RATs that voted in the prior election).

Ummm... No.

Schlicter recommends doing the exact same thing in we have done for a long time in the hopes it has a different outcome.

He is wrong.

Kind of an ironic statement, given your screen name.

I disagree. IMO it’s the right call. There is no principle to cut off your nose to spite your face. That’s childish and stupid.

SCREW this guy and the book he is peddling.

This Carolinian is done with being labeled a racist and troglodyte by gopE.

Done with being lectured by our own freaking Presidential candidate that we need not be fearful of the other candidate who is now the President that said loser candidate is currently railing against. Jackass. Scared now Juan?

Sorry Thom.....You’re on your own, and here is a preemptive FU for you too.

Obviously, there is no principle to work within the boundaries of the rulebook, either.

Cochran ran to the dems, acted like a dem...

So they should be the force to elect him, right?

That would be the “principled” thing to do.

Schlicter is one of those "we'll win with a non-conservative first and THEN become conservative later" type of RINO's.

The GOP Promise


"I will gladly become conservative Tuesday for a vote from you today"

If 10% of the Republicans in Mississippi vote for the democrat Cockroach is toast. Let us have a brief review of what republicans have done for us lately.

The patriot act with the department of Reichland security and the TSA. A huge medicare expansion. A light bulb ban. Shall I go on or do you get it?

Go ahead and vote for a progressive republican. I will not.

That is why I support an Article V state convention to propose amendments. We are at the cusp of open tyranny, and history proves that federal elections alone will not stop the march of oppression.

The problem is the Neoeuropa of the Northeast.

Those states must be purged from America to eliminate the principle cancer. Perhaps chemo or radiation can be used to eliminate the tumors in California

And screw the four decade battle plan, you want a battle plan?

Here is THE battle plan.

1) No more open primaries.

Offer voters a clear conservative choice instead of moderate mush.

Ted Cruz will never be our Presidential Candidate, particularly if Hillary is anointed early, as long as we Republicans allow cross over voting.

Cochran is living in open adultery with a woman who isn’t his wife.

I can not vote for such a man.

Even Bill Clinton didn’t behave thusly.

“Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Mitt Romney and Karl Rove have more damage to conservative America (over the last four years) than Harry Reid.”

Horsehockey.

I was furious that Thad Cochran slimed his way to victory, but every time we hardcore conservatives lose a battle, it seems a contingent of bitter-enders starts up about how the Republicans and Democrats are exactly the same, and how they’ll refuse to vote in the general, and how they’ll take their collective ball and go home.

This is very true. It's amusing how the same people that talk about rugged individualism wet their pants, soil thier BVDs, announce that it's all over, and curl up in the fetal position after almost every setback.

Liberals know how to win. Conservatives don't.

Time to get on the ball.

When, after “we” take the Senate? But the Presidential elecrion will be coming up, and the GOP will as usual foist a not-conservative on us. Then can we refuse to vote for him? But “we” must take the White House, after that we can fight the liberals in our midst.

We have to have conservatives firat, to pass a conservative agenda. Thad Cochran told the black democrat voters to who, he pandered, that they could blame the Tea Party for obstructing Obama. The rest of that sentence is “vote for me, I won’t”.

We’re not. He’s getting message after message that he better hope he gets the same rat votes in the GE that he paid for in the run-off, because he’s not getting those of conservatives.

Next up will be the outright insults. Because that’s a great way to get someone to vote for you.

Win what? Whichever side “wins”, as presently constituted, they’re both for amnesty. Cochran “blamed”conservatives, to the faces of democrat voters, for obstructing Obama.
