because if you aren’t a liar and a cheater you don’t deserve to win?? Is that what it means?

I’d rather burn it down too. I would rather skip that vote than vote for Dems or anti-conservative R’s

Absolutely not! That’s not at all what I said. I am in favor of the legal challenge whether it wins or loses, but like all legal challenges, there are deadlines for certain things and not knowing those deadlines is being ignorant, in part or in whole, of the law. You can have the most exquisitely crafted legal case ever constructed by man, but if it is submitted late, it is late, and you are chopped off at the knees. 20 days is a tight deadline. You submit a legal challenge late and it is 1000 times easier for a judge to say “you’re late, get out of here” than to take complex matters under advisement and evaluate evidence and all those other things that NAIVE people expect from an idealized vision of the legal system. The fact of the matter is, you either make it easy for someone to act as you would wish or you make it hard. Submitting forms late makes or allows the judge to take the easy way out.

To me, the campaign materials promulgated by the Cochran side reeked of dirty tricks and a questionable outcome early on. Thus the challenge was to be anticipated as a requirement by the McDaniel side. Not anticipating it is being unprepared. This “unprepared” thing has cost the TP plenty of elections.
