That is exactly the point I have been trying to get across to all those "But Harry Reid is BAD!!!" types.
Yes, Harry Reid is bad, but McConnell won't be much better, and letting him and Cochran get away with it will very likely be losing the war.
Our only hope is to preserve the reform movement known as the "Tea Party" and the only way to do that is to prevent McConnell and Cochran from getting away with the tactic of portraying it as racist. We have to make them pay for that because the future of the entire movement hangs in the balance.
Don’t forget Haley Barbour. He’s the mastermind pulling the strings in Mississippi. The plan is simple: Cochran wins, retires is 6 months, and Barbour gets to pick the next senator..
