Much as it pains me to say it, it's time to put Party Unity first.

“Much as it pains me to say it, it’s time to put Party Unity first”

The voting base of the party was unified, against Cochran. Cochran lost the Republican vote in Mississippi.

Without marching orders, individual Mississippians just went to work for Thad, from Oxford to Madison to the Coast, and gradually the heavy artillery arrived with reinforcements.

That is just so much BS.....................

One thing no one seems to talk about is the abject, illogical lunacy of open primaries where you let your opposition chose your candidate.

What in hell is wrong with a political party and its leadership that thinks this is a good idea?

For way too long the Republicans have put expediency first over principle. And see where it has gotten us. Democrat Lite...

No more, no more... Principle is what must guide us, if we don’t stick to our principles then what the heck do we stick to? The quest for power over the citizenry? That just makes us Democrats with a different name.

And in this case it is Vote Fraud... vote fraud is THEFT. Theft of the single most precious right a LEGAL citizen of the United States owns; because it is through our votes that we can legally remove a politician who is supposed to represent us and replace them with one who will do so.

If anybody can bring us together, Thad can.

That is demonstratively false.

Sorry. Not wading through the scree of someone who starts out calling people contesting voter fraud a kook-fest.

If party unity means accepting the 'values' exhibited in Mississippi, count me out.

Democratic voters trickled out of the Court Street United Methodist Church in downtown Hattiesburg, saying they had voted for a Republican for the first time in their lives - Thad Cochran

Don't worry. They'll go back to voting for 'rats in November. It now looks like thousands of votes were from people ineligible to vote.

Yes, time for party unity!! I mean, given the way the eatablishment lines up to support Tea Party candidates when they win, it’s the least we can do. /s

Meanwhile, his supporters continue to alienate voters, as if a Democrat's vote is dirty or unacceptable, not good enough.

For a GOP primary? No, Democrat votes are not good enough, especially ineligible and purchased votes.

This silly editorial reads like a parody. I'm still trying to figure out if it's a joke.

"He's spent his entire career building and tending relationships like a master rose gardener."

That cannot have been written seriously, could it?

The situation is completely out of control. For the sake and dignity of our beloved Mississippi and our Republic, end this nightmare swiftly.

That can happen if Cochran concedes since his "victory" was invalidated by ineligible votes and tainted by vote-buying and illegal payoffs. Then those that perpetrated the fraud, up to and including various Cochrans and various Barbours need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

This article is a troll.

Not the posting, mind you.

The author of it sat down with a huge grin on his face and made the conscious effort to write an article as biased as can be that would provoke a negative response.

He can shove it.

Party unity is one thing, this Mississippi mess has to be an exception. Its a matter of right vs. wrong, ethics vs. win at any cost, or more simply honesty. Cochran’s campaign used an underhanded and desperate tactic in enlisting both dems and standard dem tactics to win at any cost. That can not be ignored nor let stand if elections can continue to mean anything relating to freedom.

I don't think so, month old newb. You seriously just want us to lie down and let the GOPe and the Dems collude and cheat conservatives out of every election?

Iwhat are you, one of Barbour's flunkies?
