Pro-Kasich? They support John Kasich?
A couple of years ago I had the benefit in honor of campaigning with Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel in the state of Mississippi as he was trying to get elected to the Senate and knock off Sen. Thad Cochran . He was met by the Republican state GOP supported by the National Republican Senate Committee (by the way, Sen. Ted Cruz was vice chairman at the time) who used liberal racist fear tactics to defeat him. NOTE: Cruz didn’t participate in this particular strategy by the NSRC.
I was there on the ground, going from county to county with the Tea Party Express. I heard radio ads against McDaniel that were playing to the minority community classifying him as a racist tea party member that wanted to take blacks back to slavery and suppress their vote. This was the Mississippi GOP trying to stop a Tea Party member!!!
Now the Mississippi State GOP is threatening to use badges and guns against Trump/Cruz supporters when they hold their State’s GOP convention on April 23. This is unacceptable. I got a call from my friend in Mississippi who alerted me to these text messages sent to Senior Trump Official as it seems the Mississippi GOP want to help Kasich win the nomination:
“The bottom line is is [sic] I told you this can happen one of two ways,” Nosef’s menacing text reads. Either “we work together and include people that we trust and also happen to be Trump and Cruz supporters or we just put whoever we want on there have a big fight and end up in the contest committee in Cleveland,” it says.
“And like I told you I can promise my cousin and anybody else if they even so much as raise their voice they’re going to be outside in the parking lot and they won’t be back in and no I won’t be removing them somebody with a gun and a badge will be,” Nosef continued.
LifeZette has also confirmed with the Mississippi Trump campaign that the text is legitimate and was indeed received by one of their team, however local campaign chairman Mitch Tyner has refused to comment.
The roughly 280 state convention delegates who will be elected on April 23 go on to elect the delegates to the National Convention. Given that Gov. Bryant has endorsed Cruz, it’s possible these vicious, strong-arm tactics have been employed in Cruz’s favor, however the references to McDaniel and Cruz supporters suggest this is unlikely.
Instead it seems that Bryant and Nosef are working to ensure they have pro-Kasich or “White Knight” delegates prepared for a 2nd or 3rd ballot in Cleveland.
Make no mistake about it. Mississippi is pro-Kasich country. This is from Kasich’s website:
Kasich? Are you serious? Where is the RNC? Are they going to investigate this? Will Kasich denounce these tactics?
WE DON'T NEED NO STEENKING BADGES!
Haley Barbour speaks
Mods feel free to move it if it doesn't belong in bn
I couldn't find an author listed, but I think it is Wayne Dupree as it is mentioned that the author traveled with the TPX back when McDaniel was pushed out of the running because of eGOP dirty tricks.
I was there too, so whoever it is I know him/her.
This was at the bottom of the article:
It seems the GOP is over the top because they haven’t been able to find a way to defeat Trump’s message for the last 7.5 months. This is appalling in the highest form. What are your thoughts after reading this? Share your opinions below in our comment section!

Bring it, you pig.
Kasich looks like an ugly, old, and drunk Indiana Jones...
The corruption of the GOP (note, no “e”) knows no bounds.
Misleading headline.
Magnolia state ping
The RNC is behind Kasich I believe.
I wonder when and how the Mississippi GOP became so pro-amnesty, pro-open borders and pro-any trade agreement anyone can dream up. That’s how their most prominent politicians have swung for years now and John Kasich shares those views on immigration and trade policy.
Is this really what the voters of Mississippi support?
The Cheap Labor Express must have their amnesty candidate.
All those people listed are employees.
“I told you this can happen one of two ways,” Nosef’s menacing text reads?
Nosef? It’s a bit of a convention that if you reference someone, the reader should know who they are. Who the hell is “Nosef”?
A badge might refer to the Convention officials who are charged with keeping order and enforcing the rules. I used to be a delegate in WA State. The last convention that I attended as a Precinct Officer, a Republican Establishment guy, who was in charge of the marshals credentialed a Democrat and assigned her to watch over me because I had made some powerful waves against the Establishment and the Democrat NGOs that they were partnering with.
These people can really flex their muscles when they want to.
“Haley Barbour speaks”
Haley is a person I used to think highly of. No more especially after the Mississippi debacle.
One reform which is overdue: when a candidate wins a number of delegates, HE should be the one appointing the delegates, not the party officials.
We are witness to desperation.
Thinkin bout the times you drove in my car. Thinkin that I might have drove you too far.
I agree, I’ll see if I can find out.
Right now I have to go get firewood.
Google the name if you have time
