MS Ping
Here is someone’s blog post on Kate’s rant. It includes the entire rant.

I think that Mississippians are being snookered by neocon zealots on talk radio, Fox News, and elsewhere. The New Right values extremism, obstructionism, partisanship, and--frankly--ignorance.
The article headline and summary of the quote is disingenuous. No where did the Cochran call the people of MS "ignorant". She called the "New Right" ignorant.
Some folks are not able to pull up her Facebook page. You might have to have a Facebook Account. Just go to Facebook and type in Kate Cochran in the “Search” block.
"Tatler has learned that Democrat notaries who engaged in illegal conduct in previous elections in Mississippi (according to a federal court ruling) are now harvesting absentee ballots for the Republican runoff from African-Americans who have always voted in Democratic Party primaries..."
That’ll bring in the votes. /s
