Discussion: With Rally Set, Chris McDaniel Poised To Challenge Roger Wicker For Senate

1 Like

Mississippi has a black population of nearly 40%, the highest in the country. The numbers are there to swing this state if people would get registered and get out and vote. I realize Republicans have done everything in their power to keep that from happening, but if it can be done in AL then it can be done in MS too.

You go, Chris. Nazis like you are the perfect representatives for today’s GOP.

The very thought scares the hell out of Alabama and Louisiana. If Mississippi drops its 1850s government, those two states will soon be sharing the #50 spot on state rankings.

Hey, that thought isn’t exactly spreading cheer throughout the countryside here in KY either. But when you look into the demographics it’s hard to argue that MS can’t go ever so slightly, a very light baby blue. A candidate like McDaniel on the top of the ticket could be just the thing to tip the scales.

I can’t stand either of these pukes because y’know…Mississippi, but if I had to choose between the overtly racist, xenophobic and anti-semitic McDaniel and the pork barrel wingnut Wicker, I’d say, fuck it…thank G-d I don’t live there. Is it even remotely possible Mississippi could elect another Democratic Senator? They did it once. I know, I’m probably just hoping against hope.

Not this loser again. Hope he wins, would put another seat in play this fall.

What do you mean ā€œanotherā€?

Dems don’t yet have a viable candidate lined up in Mississippi. A 34-year-old progressive named Jensen Bohren has declared himself, but his resume is hardly inspiring, to put it kindly. This is an opportunity for a new face to come along. Abortion, religion, same-sex issues would seem to be the main stumbling block for any liberal running for office there. But the Blue Wave cannot be underestimated and we must push as hard as possible here.

Nope. Not ā€œpale baby blue.ā€ Full blazing Bernie!

The only parts of Mississippi that are even faintly functioning are industrial and unionized, and some of those folks will woke their asses up to Pete Seeger’s ā€œan’ if you don’ let race hatred break you upā€¦ā€

The South will rise again when they all remember Senator Tom Watson’s good teachin’, ā€œAin’t but three things wrong with the South: northern bank, northern railroads, an’ northern insurance companies.ā€
