Mississippi attack ads that painted conservative Republicans and tea partiers as racists were funded by Senate Republicans, RedState editor-in-chief Erick Erickson has confirmed.
Advertisements by All Citizens for Mississippi, which attacked state Sen. Chris McDaniel and painted conservatives as racists, were partly funded by Sens. Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, Rob Portman, Bob Corker and Roy Blunt, RedState reported.
According to documents filed with the Federal Elections Commission, All Citizens for Mississippi received funding from a Haley Barbour-backed group called Mississippi Conservatives.

The GOP continues to dig their own grave. Good riddance RINOs!
To: Sybeck1
Lamar Alexander contributed to that MS incumbent also.
Beat Lamar!

What the hell is wrong with these nimrods? Do they *want* the GOP base to stay home, thus keeping the Senate under Dingy Harry’s thumb? It sure seems like they do.

I find it very hard to believe the Republican party thinks stifling those who disagree with the Left the most, is the road to success in putting down the Left in our nation.
Therefore I have to accept that the Republican party supports the Left in the United States.
We have been betrayed.
We live in a one party nation.

It seems that they like being the minority party, so they can act like the underdog while caving to the dems, whining and crying about “trying” and still have all those wonderful perks. So full of principle... *gag*
I want no part in this kind of “party”. Ick.

"What the hell is wrong with these nimrods?"
The post (And pre, although more difficult) 17th Amendment Senators are just engaging in the legacy of protecting the long-time incumbent/nobility.
An incumbent love-fest should not be that surprising, especially from this current crop of "maintaining the status quo/afraid to lose" bunch.

I have yet to hear any current “conservative” candidate running for a federal office remind voters of the vote about God the democrat (in name only) held at their 2012 convention.

They’ll still describe themselves as Conservative in their ads, campaign letters and literature.
