OK, I've asked these questions a gazillion times on individual threads and have not yet got an answer to any of them. So, let's see what we can find out here with a "Vanity".
#1. Is the average Mississippi voter aware that Cochran is trying to win the GOP Primary by getting Black Democrats to vote for him in a Republican Primary? If so, how is that playing out amongst the good people of Mississippi? I would think that a lot of good ol' boys who might have voted for Thaddeus on June 3rd, might resent this and switch over to Chris.
2. Why has no one dared to expose this as raw Racism? That is apparent since Thaddeus is primarily targeting BLACK Democrats? Like, they're too dumb to think for themselves. I think that ,if I was a Black person in MS, I might resent the senile, ol' White dude and his fat, hog-jowled buddy, "Boss Hog" Barbour trying to manipulate me.
3. Is Chris, or any PACS, running Ads exposing this racist desperate move? Speak to the common sense from the heart. Let people know that Thaddeus is using Black Democrats to manipulate the GOP Primary. Shame on you Thad Cochran.
Will Thad get enough votes from Black Dems to squeak out a win this Tuesday?
No, he will get less votes than before and McDaniel will pick up votes, regardless of Democrat dirty tricks.
I suspect that Thad has some racist history given his age. Perhaps it would be a good idea to remind certain people of just who they would be voting for.
‘I suspect that Thad has some racist history’
What, like the Democrat Party? We are not talking geniuses here. 85 is far from a genius IQ.

Wow! From your lips to God’s ears.
i would think that if they want him to win, they would be glad for it... a win is a win...
The problem with calling someone a racist in Mississippi is that you might gain them more votes than you cost them. Enough white folks have been tarred with that brush over there that they aren’t that keen on seeing it thrown at someone.
NPR is really stumping for him with the black voters in a story I came across on their station as I was scanning through the dial.
It should be pretty clear for all to see that collectivist Pubbies (GOP-E, RINOs, and other names) are and have been on the same side as the Dems for 100+ years.
See my tag line.
If Cochran wins I sure hope McDaniel runs on a write-in ticket. Anything to keep Cochran out. Then again, we ALL want to see Reid’s big whiny mouth shut.
Leading up to the last presidential election, I saw a large number of Blacks carrying Romney yard signs - a number of Mississippi Blacks were more worried about a second Obama term than a lot of Freepers.

You do have to target your audiences - like BET, Hip-hop, etc. Of course it would leak out, but I doubt it have much effect on Republican voters.
You know there is nothing like dim and RINO dirty tricks to get the base out. I don’t think it will be that close.

I respectfully disagree. The support for Thad is tepid at best. And, sad to say, in some parts of Mississippi, racism is stronger than political convictions.

And, you do think the vote will come out in McDaniel’s favor; right?
Not 100% sure because I think the Cantor upset has the GOP(e) in panic mode, and no telling what stops are being pulled out the hat. Still the recent Cochran gaffes should seal it.

Yeah, I agree; especially the one about “...indecent things with farm animals.” I don’t see how at least half the population of Mississippi has not heard about that.

well then, good for us that their racism is stronger than their desire to be represented by him...
