BILOXI, Mississippi — It's been called the “nastiest primary in the country.” Now you can add allegations of “walking around money” and “vote buying,” a Democratic operative nicknamed “Scooby Doo,” and the testy denials of a Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) ally to the mix.

Rickey Cole, the chairman of the Mississippi Democratic Party, says Cochran’s allies are paying Democratic operatives to help get out the vote with a questionable tactic.

“Pete Pery” – the chairman of the Hinds County Republican Party – “is paying James ‘Scooby Doo’ Warren thousands of dollars to funnel to black preachers and others to get-out-the-vote for Cochran,”

He wouldn't know the difference. As it is, he can barely replicate the talking points his staff gives him, never mind understand them.

There is no depth the elitist Republican leadership, especially that scum suckling Mitch the bitch McConnell, will stoop to hold onto power and continue to try to be more like the Democrats everyday.

I seriously wonder if Chris can win. They’ve got their Republicans + Democrats. And no Dem is going to vote for Chris. Hope I’m wrong.

This is blatant Voter Fraud and those who attempt to disrupt or otherwise corrupt the GOP runoff should be stopped before they vote.

Thad Cochran was a Democrat before he found it expedient to become a Republican. His followers are cut from the same cloth. They are operating the same way that they always have done in Mississippi, only their (R) label is different. That’s why Democrats like him so much.

Thad needs to just become a democrat. No more need to lie about it. The clown doesn’t have an ounce of integrity left.

Nope. It's legal. It's also the reason the GOP insists on having open primaries.

It’s the reason why we’re going to end up with a third party.

Anyone that voted in the Democrat primary cannot vote in the Republican runoff. So they are limited to finding Dem voters who did not vote in the primary or voted in the GOP primary AND were registered prior to June 3rd.

Leave it to democrats to do what they can to reinforce the worst stereotypes about black folks.


Dem Operative: We'll get you da votes Thad. A pack of smokes and a magnum can of Colt 45, per vote and you're set.
