Chris McDaniel: I was “betrayed” by the GOP establishment
MOFO Politics ^ | 25 Jun 14 | MFP

Posted on 06/25/2014 7:35:18 PM PDT by xzins

Chris McDaniel, onthe blatantly unethical and illegal tactics employed by Thad Cochran and Haley Barbour in the Mississippi GOP runoff Tuesday…

“McDaniel: I am a two-term state senator, I have fought for this party my entire life, I’ve given money…I’ve done everything they’ve asked me to do– and last night, they pulled over 35,000 Democrats into a Republican primary to defeat me…we feel betrayed.

Hannity: Do you foresee any circumstance under which you would support this guy? Because I don’t think I could do it.

McDaniel: I prayed about it last night…my core principle is gonna have a hard time even looking at politics again.

Hannity: You sound like you got punched in the gut. You sound like you’ve been betrayed.

McDaniel: Sean, I was…I have fought for these people. These are my colleagues. They are my friends…I don’t understand!

But Ted Cruz has bigger fish to fry… “

“I certainly congratulate my colleague, Thad,” Cruz said on Fox and Friends Wednesday morning, pointing out that the Republican establishment poured millions into the Mississippi race and only won by a thin margin. Cruz reminded the hosts that he did not endorse a candidate in the Mississippi primary, as he promised to stay out of incumbent Senate races.

As does Rand… “

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), a potential 2016 presidential contender, declined to support tea party critics of Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran’s efforts to mobilize non-GOP voters to win the Republican nomination.

“I’m for more people voting, not less people voting,” Paul told reporters Wednesday.

There are people who will wisely hold back fratricidal fire even when the urge for vengeance is almost unbearable.

So do you consider abortion a lesser evil?

Are we not our brothers keeper? Are we not to correct them when they go astray?

Or are we to reinforce their error?

I think this guy is missing an opportunity to be graceful in defeat.

This was not a defeat. It was sabotage. It was a betrayal.

The GOPe called all of us Tea Party Conservatives racist.

I don't countenance anyone calling me a racist.

Anyone who tries to play the race card against a Tea Party Conservative is my enemy. The GOP just did that to you and me and Chris McDaniel and Sarah Palin and everyone else who believes in traditional American values and the Constitution.

Graceful in defeat?

Sue the pants off these B@$+@rds.

Start a write in Campaign.

We can't have a victory with traitors in our midst.

Do we have only two extremes, work the harshest vengeance or pay them sweet compliments?

It is a trick question because nobody is committing abortions who comes under consideration here.

You will wait until you are screaming in hell, if that is the attitude you cling to.

You’re right. When the “lesser” evil uses the “greater” evil to defeat you, realize there is no lesser or greater evil. They’re all evil.

If somebody is advocating abortions, well it probably is not somebody in the GOP.

What kind of straw man are you setting up to shoot your silly cannon at?

Way to give testimony! My soul is gods to do with as he will.

So you refuse to answer the question. So be it.

I am not setting up any straw man. I asked you a very specific and simple question that you dance like Astaire to avoid. We all see that.

Sure you aren’t.

There is nothing you can do about abortion or gay marriage until you get your own soul right.

I hope so. In fact I pray daily for the chance to find out.
