I would listen to Ann’s argument if it were not dishonest.

(Yes, it’s annoying to see a Republican appeal to Democratic voters to save his seat.)

That’s called a straw man. The Tea Party is not annoyed because Cochran appealed to Democrat voters. They are furious that he called Conservative voters racists, in order to get blacks to vote for him. Shame on Ann for not criticizing this unacceptable tactic, essentially encouraging the RINOs to continue to employ it by not making making them pay a heavy price for it. If Cochran loses to a Democrat, HE should be to blame for dividing the GOP so irrevocably during the primary, and not even apologizing for it.

Yes, and she knows what the argument/complaint is - how Cochran's people reinforced the false narrative that conservatives/Republicans are racist, bad people.

Yet, Ann deliberately parrots the false narrative of the media.

And as a source of further aggravation, she touts Bill Cassidy as the de facto Republican running against Landrieu, when Cassidy is being contested by Rob Maness, who has the support of Gov. Sarah Palin, Senate Conservatives Fund, Tea Party Express, and dozens of other conservative groups.

Ann continues to be a major disappointment as of late.
