McDaniel is a KKKer and a crook.

Let’s hear the KKK, I mean Tea Party, whine about this one! And in a delicious ironic twist it looks like blacks may have tipped the election for Cochran.

McDaniels will try for a recount correct?

BTW, 2 Million in a suitcase Hong Kong Harbor Barbour machined this and generally, it is a giant heap of meh, ho hum Missafuckinsippi old white KKK guardians of the throne. Cochran is not stupid enough to parade around with his frock on though.

How old is this cracker…I mean Cochran? This is probably his last campaign, so I’m sure he’s just glad he can wipe off that flop sweat finally and get to bed early.

The Tea Party may have lost but this has made Cochran a damaged Senator and a liability if seen with other GOP members. Needing Democratic voters to vote for him, defending Obama. That is a big No, no in today’s GOP.

I’ve asked this before, but how about some real, genuine election returns (you know, that’s where they count the ballots…(and oh… Grumpy Old Party… maybe not) anyway, how about some real numbers to punctuate all this verbiage?

Sorry, baggers!

Now that he got some black folks to vote for him in this primary, just watch how quickly Mississippi flips the script on black voters in the general election. I have no doubt they will use every effort at voter suppression if they can get away with it.

Given the choice between a guy who mates with farm animals and a guy who harasses old women, Mississippi Republicans chose the one that most resembled them.

I’l love to see President Obama send a hardy note of congratulations to old Thad. Something along the line of “we did it old pal! you see what can be accomplished when we work together” Of course the WH should then release the note to the press for the morning papers.

And the note should have a “bcc” to Senator Childers (heh)

The loser deserves a red ribbon for reprehensible sleaze. That B&E photo shoot inside the nursing home is going to be tough to beat.

He wiped himself just enough with McDaniel who had it coming.

When the baggers can’t win in Mississippi, they are a lost cause nationwide

As much as I would love to set the stage for a potential Dem pickup, I’m actually relieved to see that trick-ass bitch McDaniel get shut down. He’s just an awful, no good, terrible person. I know the Senate isn’t quite as prestigious as we sometimes pretend it is, what with its history of McCarthys, Strom Thurmonds and Jesse Helms, Santorum, Demint, and Theodore Cruzington-Cruzerson III.

But fuck, McDaniel would have been a new kind of low, if not a necessarily new low.

Maybe, just maybe, since this will likely be his last term (assuming he wins reelection in the general), maybe Gramps Cochran will remember this moment, and at least vote his conscience when push comes to shove instead of toeing the party line so reliably. I won’t hold my breath, but one can hope.
