Chris McDaniel, onthe blatantly unethical and illegal tactics employed by Thad Cochran and Haley Barbour in the Mississippi GOP runoff Tuesday…
“McDaniel: I am a two-term state senator, I have fought for this party my entire life, I’ve given money…I’ve done everything they’ve asked me to do– and last night, they pulled over 35,000 Democrats into a Republican primary to defeat me…we feel betrayed.
…
Hannity: Do you foresee any circumstance under which you would support this guy? Because I don’t think I could do it.
McDaniel: I prayed about it last night…my core principle is gonna have a hard time even looking at politics again.
…
Hannity: You sound like you got punched in the gut. You sound like you’ve been betrayed.
McDaniel: Sean, I was…I have fought for these people. These are my colleagues. They are my friends…I don’t understand!
But Ted Cruz has bigger fish to fry… “
“I certainly congratulate my colleague, Thad,” Cruz said on Fox and Friends Wednesday morning, pointing out that the Republican establishment poured millions into the Mississippi race and only won by a thin margin. Cruz reminded the hosts that he did not endorse a candidate in the Mississippi primary, as he promised to stay out of incumbent Senate races.
As does Rand… “
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), a potential 2016 presidential contender, declined to support tea party critics of Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran’s efforts to mobilize non-GOP voters to win the Republican nomination.
“I’m for more people voting, not less people voting,” Paul told reporters Wednesday.
Another very strong proof point about NOT VOTING FOR RINOS!
Rand may be “over handled by consultants” as you surmised, but stupid? ..... nope. You do realize he’s a doctor, right?
Wow, lately, every time Rand opens his mouth he says something that turns me against him.
No need to cross over or violate your values. Just skip voting for Senator in MS. Let Cochran win on the merits.
Cochran was against the wall and his crony capitalist pigs churned up the mud to maximum so they could “win”. Winning in this case means keeping their snouts in the trough and the trough is in your pocket.
To hell with perfect, that's a liberal republican canard.... does he match with the republican party platform? On amnesty, and 2nd amendment? How about abortion?

Trying to primary them out has not worked very well.
Time to try a different strategy to catch their attention.
A general election protest sounds like a good option to me.
Get over yourself.
So was Gonsel.
voting early, voting often!

It wasn’t just the GOP-E....the Chamber of Commerce was also involved. The Chamber of Commerce is what is propping up the GOP-E these days.
A portion of FR. For starters. See ‘lesser evil’.
I have a lot of hope in the Millenials. They embrace disruptive technology which means that it’s hard to pin them to the establishment. The Establishment depends on regulatory capture and these kids aren’t going to stand for that.
Even more importantly, they’re used to high quality, fast satisfaction. That’s something that the Leviathan cannot ever deliver. I think they’re more libertarian than is good for them, but then they surprise me and reduce the amount of teen sex, drug and alcohol use.
We’ve dumped the weight of the New Deal, Great Society and Obamanomics on their shoulders. That’s a tough burden. Their great failing is not knowing history.
McCain was a war hero. He is a terrible politician.
People are going to have to vote for God in their hearts before they will be able to see any way out of this conundrum. As it is, without God we have multiple paths, all of them knuckling under to evil in some manner.
Another reason for a second party.
They have a long way to go to capture the “Metico” votes. In fact, they are too late to the party if that’s their game.
I see where things are heading...
Dem vote: extreme liberals, Afr.A., Latinos, and deviants
GOP vote: liberals
Independents: conservative and common sense
Third party and write-ins are the wave of the future!
Or are you just playing a game here?
McDaniel is running for the Senator of Mississippi Republican primary position against incumbent Senator Thad Cochran, not Cornyn.
I would appreciate it if you got the basic facts correct, before you start telling anyone anything...
McStupid was NO WAR HERO; being an incompetent pilot then a prisoner does not make one a hero!
