This is not a good situation. It will be difficult for Mcdaniel to come out of this looking good regardless of outcome now.
The whole thing is lousy and all of us here agree with that.
I don’t know the politics down there. If it’s a strong republican state that will go to the republican regardless, I’d say fight on.
However, if there’s a chance a democrat can come in here and win the seat, I’d say Mcdaniel right should take this right up to the point that they ask for another election, and then concede the election to the Thad, and ask for unity among the party.
I’m not voting Thad Cochran if even Chris McDaniel personnally begged me too. They better get busy getting that 51st senator from somewhere else as far as me and my family are concerned. I am voting democrat the first time in life if Cochran is on the ballot.
Thad Cochran delenda est.
Unity isn’t going to happen. This wasn’t just a spirited campaign, this was criminal theft of an election riddled with fraud with the full cooperation and funding of the party establishment. People should go to jail for this.
Maybe you have honorable intentions but McDaniel should never concede, never. It’s saying that it’s ok to cheat your way to victory, that illegal is ok if long-term goals are met. No, not true, never. Stop the voter fraud at any cost.
Sorry nikos, Thad Cochran is a RINO Senator who (along with Mitch McConnell) MUST be defeated in the 2014 election cycle. It would be better if it is done by McDaniel replacing Cochran on the general election ballot but, failing that, if necessary by conservatives voting for Cochran’s DemocRAT opponent in November.
The incredibly despicable behavior by McConnell and Cochran can NOT be allowed to be rewarded.
REMEMBER MISSISSIPPI!!
IMHO no conservative should vote for Cochrane,period. If a Democrat wins, well at least the Republican establishment will no that they better treat conservatives with respect. Besides, as Republican as SC is, the Democrat will be turned out next election.
It's just a self-inflicted flesh wound.
It will be difficult for Mcdaniel to come out of this looking good regardless of outcome now.
