What do we know about the judge who will hear the case?

I expect he'll grant the injunction..then I want to see Thad and Haley running to the appeals court to get it overturned..

“We really need to get the Senate in 2015. The Supreme Court is extremely important.”

I would like to get the Senate as much as anybody, but let’s be realistic; GOP control of the Senate will not stop Obama from appointing an ultra-liberal to the SCOTUS. It may cause a rejection of his first choice so he has to come back with someone slightly less radical, but the difference will be minimal. As far as the SCOTUS is concerned, the only hope we have is that no conservative justices retire or die before 2017 and that we put a conservative in the White House.

Funny, I get more news about this from FR than local outlets.

BS, we do NOT want to reward McConnell’s and Cochran’s treachery and warring on conservatives with victories this November. I have STOPPED the practice of bending over and grabbing my ankles at the command of the despicable GOPe. We have bent over repeatedly and they are disrespecting and hating us the more we do so.

In four months, it will be our opportunity to send the GOPe a message they’ll understand. Let’s NOT reward McConnell and Cochran for their betrayal and mistreatment of conservatives. For THOSE TWO RINOs, let’s support and vote for their DemocRAT opponents and defeat our abusers. It’s not enough to simply not vote for them; it’s important to actually vote for their opponents.

I e-mailed the author after I read it and thanked him for his excellent and balanced article regarding such an emotionally charged issue.

You could always offer the voter more money, but then, if he’s dishonest enough to accept money to vote, he’s dishonest enough not to vote for who you paid him to vote.

McDaniel should not go for a run off. He won! Cochran should be kicked out of office.

This reminds me of the scene in GONE WITH THE WIND. “That’s right. We’re gonna’ give you 40 acres and a mule. We just want you to remember who your friends are.” or something like that.

Very well-written for a Slate article! No spin, just reporting.

I really don't want the liberal republican leadership of the Senate to have a majority.

“Irregularities in every county, so we’ve covered 38 counties now, said State
Senator Michael Watson. “We have what we think is evidence of roughly 3300 plus or
minus a few more irregularities in those counties. We’ve not yet touched the
Delta, we’ve not yet touched the absentee ballots.”

If I were McDaniel I would have run ads along the lines of “why risk going to jail for an old white guy”

Then have the MS AG threaten everyone who crossed over be charged with voter fraud which carries jail time.

I don’t see your point on the supreme court here. The same bunch of senators who claim to be in the (R) opposition party, if elected and they do win the senate were in charge of the senate in the 1990’s when Clinton nominated a slew of liberal judges up and down the bench and they did nothing.

McStain has made it clear the president won elections and gets to put who he wants on the bench. These GOPE eunuchs will piss and moan and then vote to seat the communist nominees to the bench and tell the (R) voting sheep we tried but, but, but...
