What you need is a good bluff. What we need is to convince Cochran that he's been so tainted by this that the best bet for him, his state, and his party, is to retire on his reputation and let the next generation of Mississippians (McDaniel) take over, while the timing is still in Cochran's favor.

The fact that the Cochran camp hasn’t soundly condemned the voters that committed voter fraud speaks volumes about their integrity/character, and their win at all cost mentality.
IF, I REPEAT- IF, they had any integrity... they might issue a statement that goes something like this:
I condemn any and all voters that are discovered to have committed voter fraud, in this election or any other election for that matter, and support their prosecution to the fullest extent of the law. I support an independent investigation and expect full cooperation on behalf of staff within my organization, and ask the same of the public bodies within our government.
The integrity of the election is paramount to a self governed people and their elected officials must be beyond reproach. I offer my assistance, my staff’s assistance, and any other resources that are at my disposal which are useful to a fully transparent and complete investigation. Thank you.
From the poll I’ve seen and the responses I’m getting from other Mississippians, it’s not a bluff.
