In last Junes Mississippi GOP runoff, liberal Republican Thad Cochran engaged in mass election fraud to defeat conservative primary challenger Chris McDaniel.
Team Cochran paid thousands of African-Americans $15 per vote, and planted stories in liberal media outlets alleging McDaniel of having ties to the KKK.
Cochran narrowly defeated McDaniel in the primary, and went on to win the general election.
On Monday, Rand Paul urged conservatives to get over any hard feelings
There are still some hard feelings have to get over it.
Its hard when you run a race and you dont win.
Ahead of Pauls visit, Mississippi Tea Party Chairwoman Laura VanOverschelde told the MSGOP to go stuff it.

I got over it soon enough (not a Mississippian) but I also got over rand, too.
Not to worry Mr. Paul.
I ‘got over’ that, .. Coincidentally, just about the same time I ‘got over’ you.
I believe I saw that William Thaddeus Cochran is voting more conservatively than is Orrin Grant Hatch.
Old story. Everybody has gotten over it by now.
Funny how It’s always Conservatives who should just get over things while it’s okay for democrats to exact a price to pay when they are upset. Then there are the loonatarians like Rand who can’t keep track of his positions day to day.
Nope, wouldn't be prudent.
Don’t forget that Rand Paul has made multiple appearances on the Alex Jones show and is aligned with Code Pink activist Adam Kokesh http://www.newsrealblog.com/2010/04/23/dear-sarah-palin-its-time-to-re-think-that-rand-paul-anti-israel-pro-kokesh-endorsement/ - as well as this scandal with Kentucky Right to Life : http://www.newsrealblog.com/2010/04/24/rand-paul-caught-lying-about-pro-life-survey/
I am so tired of being lectured by this condescending twirp. Get over yourself, Rand.
AGREED!! NEVER FORGET!!
I’ll not get over it nor will I give the MSGOP, the NRC or the NRSC any more money, I’ll only contribute to candidates I support. The NRSC sent money to cochran’s campaign that paid for the ads on black radio stations that urged democrats to illegally vote in the Republican primary. The ads referred to Senator McDaniel and his supporters as klansmen, racist, bigots and those who would starve poor people. I’ll include rand paul with roger wicker on the list of people I’ll never vote for or vote for again as in wicker’s case.
“Old story. Everybody has gotten over it by now.”
Not quite everyone, many people in Mississippi are not going to forget about this anytime soon, including me.
No doubt about it, now that the Dims and the Repukes have joined forces against us. The representative republic the Framers bequeathed to us is FUBAR.
I’m right there with you.
Wicked Wicker.
I hope McDaniel takes him on.
duffee is correct, x.
We will not forget.
BUMP!
Bryant
Wicker
Reeves
Nosef
These guys will never get a vote from me again
Right there with you and I got polled the other night, (last night).
Cochran has a nephew running for an office.
One of the questions was “do you agree or disagree that he will be hurt by his uncle’s race with McDaniel?”
Well, DUH!
I answered YES to that question.
I won’t vote for any Cochran or any Barbour either!
I forgot all about pinging our list, till just now.
I’m so sorry! The list is on my home page.
Please use it anytime!
