Pure Ignorance, many people do not vote because look at the candidates.

I do notice that none of the charges leveled against McDaniel in the ads are addressed. Gee …

When he finally gets slam dunked by Barber and told how it really is going to be, would you believe the guy is kkk after a cross is burned in the middle of the night in front of the capital bldg??
This guy is after a freeloader senate paycheck with benefits, period. If he doesn’t get it, which he won’t, then he will work towards the supreme leader thing of save the race. But only if there is a paycheck involved other than kochs money because that will be cut off.

Regardless of who was shopping for ad time, McDaniel’s connections to the KKK is true. Cheating in the next room, as the Blues singers would say

I thought we read here last week the Klan members were upstanding gentlemen, basically just Rotarians who have the fashion chutzpah to wear white after Labor Day.

I’m getting confused, which one is the GOPer and which one is the Tea Partier? You know, these RWNJ all look alike.

Cochran will die a lot sooner than McDaniel (presumably). Therefore, as a GOTPer I like him better.

Who cares who ordered the ads when the info is accurate?

Maybe I’m crazy, but I smell a rat. What makes me suspicious is the bit about “[we could]… lose food stamps, student loans, disaster relief as well as suffer cuts to Social Security and Medicaid.”

I could imagine this as a “get out the tea party” ad, made by McDaniel with the intent of blaming on the Dems, in a stereotypical race-bating black female voice. After all, McDaniel supporters would like nothing more than taking away those things from the “welfare queens,” so the suggestion that the opposition is using their preservation as an incentive to vote would be a motivator for his base. As far as we know, the ad never ran, begging the question why is this guy saying this now?

I can’t imagine a Democrat running an ad that’s so coarsely worded, but maybe I’m off base here. Info on Lousteau is sketchy, but his radio station has featured right wing talk in the past.

Here’s how the Daily Mail in the UK covered it. No bias here! LOL

There’s no reason to take Jerry Lousteau’s word for it. The individuals accused deny involvement, so there may be something more to this than meets the eye.

Trust me, most small town radio station owners are at least that derpy.

16

You just shut up about facts! We’re trying to conceal stuff!

17

Ah, memories.

18

So McDaniel is mad because somebody was mean to him?

Never heard of that in politics.

“…runoff between McDaniel (pictured) and Cochran…”
Miracles never cease. Thank you very much, Daniel, first time in living memory. To you not so much, Josh. Could I make a very modest proposal? How about captions under TPM’s photos so we all know who we’re looking at, would that break the bank or something? Or is it cool to leave us wondering? (Not in McDaniel’s case, of course, but in many another.) (Yeah, I know, maybe I should change my handle to upwitkurmudjuns or something.)

It’s meeting the eye now. Good call
