How embarrassing is this for the Dems in Mississippi? A harbinger of what is coming down the chute next year as Progressives take it up the hind parts . . .

This might be the funniest thing I’ve read all week.

Oh my gosh!!!....The Winner!

The Mississippi Democratic Party received a shock this week when its favored candidate lost in the primary to a truck driver who didn’t spend a single cent on his campaign and says that he was too busy to vote for himself.

46-year-old Robert Gray won the gubernatorial primary with more than 50 percent of the vote. He carried all but three of the state’s counties.

He got a call from his mother on election day who was excited that she voted for a candidate with her son’s name—she didn’t know it was actually him because he hadn’t told any of his family or friends that he was even running.

Sounds like the democrat party is as useless in Mississippi as the republican is in California.

L o L !

[Sybeck1]

No way he wins against Thad’s bud Bryant

Here's the candidate the DNC backed. Vicki Slater.

[RightGeek]

Apparently his name was first on the ballot ... Lol

[Boogieman]

“Vicki Slater, the party-backed candidate he defeated, has been actively campaigning since she announced her campaign in February.”

Let this be a lesson to would-be politicians. Sometimes, the less we see or hear of you, the more we like you.

“A harbinger of what is coming down the chute next year as Progressives take it up the hind parts...”

Don’t get TOO excited; we tried this in the Mid-Terms and put a LOT of ‘Republicans’ in place all across the land. Didn’t help our side one tiny little bit!

However, I like the way you think and this election outcome is one for the ages.

Think it’ll be on the Nightly News? ROFLMAO! :)

[Norseman]

By the way, one thing that’s almost certain to come out of this is a much larger respect for the idea of being first on the ballot.

[ZOOKER]

I’m confused...is this racist or sexist?

epic

The white Democrats have lost control of the party. It’s not about gender, it’s all about ethnicity. Hillary’s defeat in 2008 was a foreshadowing of it. Funny that all the Democrat Presidential candidates are white.

[Dr. Sivana]

It's simple, have a last name that is the same as a color,

Alvin Green
Bob Grey

Of course that doesn't tell us where Mark Fairchild fits in.

This is exactly why freepers in every state need to register as democrat candidates in primaries in every state.

Their candidate won in the Senate last year.
