Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith Is Tripping All Over Herself and Dems See an Opportunity in Mississippi
Daily Beast ^ | November 16, 2018 | Gideon Resnick

Posted on 11/19/2018 7:35:42 AM PST by C19fan

Nearly a year ago, Democrats pulled off an upset in the South against a Republican candidate hobbled by controversy. Now, they’re hoping to duplicate that feat in Mississippi, in the last Senate election of the cycle.

Virtually no prognosticator has given the party much of a chance. But this past week, the Republican in the race, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), has been caught twice making wild and insensitive remarks: the first expressing comfort attending a public hanging; the second openly musing about suppressing Democratic votes. All of which has encouraged the party to rethink whether the long shot Democrat in the race, former U.S. secretary of agriculture Mike Espy, is really that big a long shot at all.

“He split the GOP vote so Ms. Smith did not get over 50%. “

Perhaps it’s because Ms. Smith is stupid.

How do you explain deep-red Indiana smack dab in the middle of the midwest? Where they just elected a republican supermajority to the state legislature? Is that republicans fleeing from Illinois and Ohio or something? Seriously, if the demographics are so much against conservatives how do you explain Indiana?

“Well, it doesn’t help if you publically spout what some consider racist remarks.”

Is that you, Dana PeRINO? You want candidates you say absolutely NOTHING if you’re more concerned with “what some consider” than you are with winning elections. The demonrats are going to say we’re racist no matter what we say. Ask Judge Kavanaugh how answering in a judicial tone for the entire legal and proper portion of his hearing worked for him. To them ALL OF US are racists, sexists, homophobes, you name it. It doesn’t matter what we say. Our defense is NOT to kowtow to them and their delicate sensibilities it’s to fight back and point out their pious BS at every opportunity.

Trump and Kavanaugh both proved it, it doesn’t matter what they say about you, what matters is what YOU do in response.

“Your anti-Southern bias is showing. “

Yes, it is, and with some evidence to support it. Just how in the world did Alabama put up with that dip $hit Roy Moore? Jeff Sessions? That old coot, Thad Cochran, who stayed on when he didn’t even know what time of day it was? Plus in Mississippi you have that worthless a$$hole Haley Barbour and his bunch f*cking up Chris Daniels time after time. All reasons for my bias irrespective of California or Connecticut, which are $hit holes for entirely different reasons.

And Ron DeSantis also proved that Gary Hart’s boat wasn’t racist while we’re at it.

Sometimes it just bears repeating.

Subpar economic growth and migration. They are simply in stasis. Not much change. People in Illinois simply come here to Texas or Florida.
