Could they manufacture enough votes to put Cochran over 50%? That’s the only way out of a loss for Cochran.
You mean tonite, on this thread, or in general?
Maybe Cochroach will know who the Tea Party is after tonight.
Reference
Rankin 68% Reporting
C. McDaniel 50.1% 8,330
T. Cochran (i) 48.8% 8,129
Scott 70.8% Reporting
C. McDaniel 51.2% 753
T. Cochran (i) 47.9% 705
Yes, and Rankin is the county that is left that has big numbers. It’s close there right now.
General..we’ve missed you on the Idol threads...
Cochran might be tired. His cronyist supporters would never allow him to concede though. He’s danced their tune for decades. He can’t exactly stop that now.
I totally agree that he is bad on economic issues, and I said so. My original post, and subsequent ones, dealt with the issue of amnesty, abortion, and obamacare, and only to protest that his positions on those issues were significantly different from the democrat. I even noted that his abortion record isn’t spectacular, but did earn him a 0% from NARAL.
People got really upset about that, but I stand by my position that on those three issues, the establishment would NOT be able to claim victory if Cochran had won, because his official record on those issues were not inline with the establishment.
Note also I certainly did not say, and could not predict, whether Cochran would CHANGE his positions on any of those things if he won. But I also can’t say that we KNOW how McDaniels or any other person would vote after winning an election — we’ve been burned enough to know that there is rarely a sure thing unless someone has already been in office long enough to prove themselves on the national stage.
Remember that Ayotte was tea party, and Rubio was also a big tea party favorite at one point.
Just tightened
C. McDaniel 49.4% 143,762
T. Cochran (i) 49.0% 142,407
Guys, it is all about forcing him into a runoff at this point. We cannot let him gain the last 1% he needs. COME ON CHRIS!!!
We’ll throw him next time if he flakes out on us
Tightening up..95% in....Chris has a 1,000 vote lead..but still just below 50%
McDaniel is 3,227 below 50%. Cochroach is 5937 below 50%.
I KNEW IT! They just pulled the rip-cord on Hinds! Its gone. All Thad has left is Holmes county.
Ladies and gentlement. it’s Holmes vs. Covington! Thats all we have left in this race
BOOM HINDS DROPPED THEIR BOMB.
It is clear what Hinds County is up to.
Very clear.
Me?
I've never watched a single episode. Sure you have the right guy?
But I do appreciate that y’all missed me.
Watch Choctaw county too. Breaking for McDaniel at 50% in, not many votes, but every one counts
