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.

Why do you refuse to answer? What can possibly be so upsetting to you about such a simple and basic to christian belief question?

We also don’t know anything about his habit of wearing ladies’ thong underwear when he’s on the Senate floor either. We should be totally forthcoming.

Because I actually have personal faith in the Lord, and laugh at how you try to beam the weird rays of hell at me.

Do we or do we not have an all-sufficient Savior. Answer THAT one.

He’s becoming more and more like his father! He’s dropped off my list.

You have a point about the racism slam. I agree that it is imperative to fight back on charges of the Tea Party being racist.

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

Meet the 8 republicans that support late-term abortions:

you will not answer a basic question. And I can say that without flowery language.

Well since you won’t stand and state an answer, allow me to burn YOUR straw man

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

Mitt Romney. And THAT is why you won’t answer. Because then you have to admit things you spent the whole thread arguing against.

But that wasn’t why I asked. I wanted to see how far you’d go off track to avoid saying it. And my soul was further than even I thought you’d take things to avoid it.

Methinks you’re whistling past the graveyard. Conservatives’ inability to defeat Graham or Cochran in the conservative strongholds of South Carolina and Mississippi is a dire sign. We’ve got to do a much better job of organizing against such Democrats-lite.

The GOP establishment played the race card against the entire Tea Party.

They not only played it, but they dealt it from the bottom of the deck.

I’ll never send another dime to the GOP ever again.

No one should send them money, only send money to individual candidiates.

I'll mention that I don't know anything about that habit.

That should help.

I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. I think he's completely lost his mind.

Either that or he has become demon possessed and can't help himself.

Then again maybe he is just dumber than a box of rocks.
