In any event the ,rats are due to control the Senate in 2016. What good can McConnell achieve in just two years as a doormat?

Has RNC chairman Rinse Repeatus / Prince Reibus phoned in a response yet of this conservative backlash of the Cochran win yet?

(”Conservative” is in quotes, because a true conservative is also a realist who understands that taking oneself out of the game is petulant and selfish and scores points for the other side

No, a 'true conservative' allows people the judgement of their own conscience and doesn't lecture them because they won't behave in the manner he so self-righteously dictates.

If the GOP doesn’t ask Cochran to step aside in the General election then they don’t deserve to have the Senate Majority.

What the GOPand Cochran did to McDaniel was despicable beyond words. Playing the race card against the Tea Party is the bottom of the barrel.

At this point if you are a conservative in MS, you have 3 choices. 1) a write in vote for McDaniel, 2) vote for the democrat to screw over Cochran or 3) do not vote for that race. Anyone voting for Cochran is PART OF THE PROBLEM and a RINO in default at this stage of the game with all we know about Cochran. No more of this “lesser of two evils” BS!!!!!

“Cite the law.”

I don’t know the law there. I’m just telling you what the Barbour camp is telling the public and press: MS sore loser laws prevent McDaniel from a write-in campaign. Is the Barbour camp lying? I dunno.

Well, there’s a lot of lecturing and self-righteousness on FR today, and I’m responsible for only that one lecturing post.

Needed to be said, no apology.

Those pouting today no doubt consider themselves patriotic. Had the real Patriots who lost Bunker Hill in 1775 had such bad attitudes, they would have taken their muskets and gone home and we’d still be addicted to tea.

I’m just hoping the pity party is over soon and the fight is back on for November.

The GOP wouldn't have the Senate anyway; not with McConnell, Graham, Cornyn, McCain, Rubio, Paul, and all the other commie turncoats in the Senate GOP.

I don't give a rat's ass about the GOP-e. They suck.

But it's not a question of whether the GOP deserves to have the Senate. What matters is that cynwoody does not deserve to have Harry Reid as Majority Leader!

Doesn’t matter what the law says. Just pay off the right judge and election laws can be ignored. It worked in New Jersey.

Nonsense.

We ALWAYS vote for the lesser of two evils. Had McDaniel won, you’d vote for him as the lesser of two evils in November.

There is no perfect candidate. Some are far better than others, but they ALL let us down at some point.

The MS race is one of many. Those “many” may determine the fate of this nation.

Someone is going to be elected to that MS Senate seat in November. I ask you, with all my heart and for the sake of all of us, to look at the two candidates on the ballot and ask yourself which one is most likely to vote with Obama the most over the next two years.

And then vote for the lesser evil.

If you don’t even have the leaders of your party trying to take the majority, how can the people prevail?

By telling "the people" the truth about "the leaders" and replacing them. The people are in control if they would just get organized.

Proof?:

RATs.
