GOP rivals locked in tight, nasty Mississippi Senate runoff
FOX News ^ | June 18, 2014 | John Roberts

What do breasts, "mamacitas" and indecent acts with animals have in common? They’re all mudballs the campaigns of Sen. Thad Cochran and challenger Chris McDaniel are throwing at each other in hopes of gaining the edge ahead of next Tuesday’s runoff election in Mississippi.

It’s impossible to know who has the advantage at this point in the Republican primary contest. A new poll from Democratic pollster Chism Strategies shows Cochran leading 48-47 percent. Chism was one of the more accurate polls leading up to the primary on June 3. A recent poll conducted for Citizens United shows the opposite. It has McDaniel clobbering Cochran 52-40 percent.

After sleepwalking through the primary, the Cochran campaign suddenly has come alive. Cochran has been barnstorming the state with an intensity he hasn’t needed since he won what had been a solidly Democratic seat in 1978. After House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s stunning primary defeat last week in Virginia, the Cochran campaign is, understandably, running scared.

Pam Ard, a longtime supporter of Cochran, she voted for McDaniel in the primary. “I think Thad Cochran has been great for this state,” Ard told Fox News. “He has done wonderful things here, but it is time to have some new blood.”

It’s people like Ard that McDaniel is counting on to carry him to victory.

A PAC supporting McDaniel is using Cochran’s own words against him – a rather bizarre utterance at a recent campaign appearance where he said that as a child it was fun to do “all sorts of indecent things with animals.” The radio ad from Now Or Never PAC includes a bleating sheep as the narrator says: “Tell Thad Cochran you’re no farm animal.”

It stinks to be Thad Cochran right now. His gaffe wrote its own nemesis.

Tight and Nasty in Mississippi. That sounds like a reality show waiting to be made about an after hours riverside Beer Palace and it’s colorful clientele.

Well anyhow I think they did pick those words to be evocative. Regardless of what is really going on.

Any Mississippi folks reading this, PLEASE tell me that the word is getting to the voters in MS that Cochran is trying to win by paying Black Democrats to vote for him in the run-off. Are the voters in MS being made aware of this? Please; anybody.

As soon as I finished reading that sentence I heard the chorus from that song echo "Pascagoula!"

There is only one course of action....here......Get every MS voter to turn out next Tuesday and vote for Chris McDaniel!!! Thad Cochran is just another name for Barack Hussein Obama!!! If you would cast your vote for Thad Cochran....you’d be casting it for “Hate & Destroy America”, POTUS Obama...traitor to the USA!!!

Every citizen voter in MS, needs to get off their duff and turn to vote for Chris McDaniel on Tuesday, June 24, 2014!!! Do It!!!!

My it must be nice to live in a world where everybody is stark white or black. Takes the attention off of all our increasingly dark personal “shades of grey.”

Quite frankly, I wish every Senate and House candidate on both sides had to fight for their seat every time. I get so sick and tired to see unopposed Democrats and Republicans because they become more and more detached from their voters and then the arrogance begins. I wish every candidate had to campaign every time like it is literally their last election.

Ok Din, I just asked a retired neighbor here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast if he has heard it. He keeps up with the news better than most. He said no.

The good news though is this. I live in a very tight neighborhood. Literally, everybody knows everybody. More than half of them are older retirees. These are the folks that I would think to be TC supporters. NOT the case. I do not know of a single one that will be going to vote for Thad. They WILL be going to vote for Chris!
