I cannot explain why the MSM isn’t jumping all over this “Republican vote-buying scandal”.... or maybe it is because the guy is really a Dem?

Or because his co-conspirators were Democrats and the media knows they would be drawn in by any investigation too.

Yep, I think you nailed it.

In almost all other circumstances, the media would be falling all over themselves with endless news stories of GOP FRAUD! GOP FRAUD! That would be total catnip to them. Just having those two words together, to hammer with, over and over.

But in this case, it would show off the sleaze and fraud of the “establishment class” and their beltway buds. Nope, can’t have that! So, this very, very major political scandal gets deliberately ignored and deliberately underplayed.

It is because the Uniparty is “united” in their disdain for anyone associated with the TEA party aka anyone who detests the unipartys monopoly on our political system.

Thad is too low life for the MSM to bother with.

It would be like denigrating a family member.

Because there is a MUCH BIGGER PRIZE - the destruction of the Tea Party, which then means Amnesty, and then the destruction of the Republican Party completely.

The end-game is what they’re after, and Cockran is doing EXACTLY what they need him to do.

The reason is that the vote buying was done through Black churches, which have a history of doing the same thing for the Democrats.

So while it would be a good shot at Republicans, going after the story would expose the much larger issue of corruption and collusion between the Black churches and the Democrats. A friend of mine who worked a few Presidential campaigns in the Midwest once told me that Black pastors think they deserve to get a new car every four years ...

But ... it’s all fun and games until people start getting slapped with RICO indictments. And say what you want about the Obama/Holder DoJ, but this would quickly turn into something they couldn’t ignore.
