McDaniel is right to be upset. It is illegal under Mississippi law to vote in a primary unless you intend to vote for the party's nominee in the general. Ask yourself how many of those blacks who voted in the runoff intend to vote for Cochran in November?

And how many McDaniel voters plan to vote for Cochran in November if he is declared the winner?

You really are a troll aren’t you?

The post you responded to misquoted the law a little but most everyone following this story knows what they meant.

Cochran’s campaign and the gop voided the contract.

That question swings both way, does it not? The net effect is to draw even more "question" into the outcome of the contest.

The MS law appears to have the aim or effect of enforcing party loyalty, and forbidding a condition of one party being home to candidates having irreconcilable differences.

Civil war inside the party is really messy.

I would, if I were voting in Mississippi. I'm tired of Harry Reid as Majority Leader!

Principles have no place in the voting booth. You need to make the best of what you've got, not what you want. It's OK to lurk libertarian, but voting Losertarian, while it may make you feel good, does not advance the agenda.

Personally if I lived there.....I wouldn't vote at all.

I've been bent over too many times by the GOPe....and I'm done.

You can enjoy getting F$%^ed again...I ain't having it anymore.
