This is an EXCERPT

Federal Election Commission reports show the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is sinking $750,000 on ads to help newly appointed Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith. ...

Another PAC, the Mississippi Victory Fund run by Henry Barbour and former state Sen. Merle Flowers, supports Hyde-Smith.
It reported no spending through March 31 but has raised $75,000, with contributions of $25,000 each from former Gov. Haley Barbour, businessman W.D. Mounger and Sanderson Farms CEO Joe Sanderson. ...

MISSISSIPPI, ... are we going to tolerate outside of state people tp BUY our Senate Seat ?
Do your research, and realize what a Democrat-In-Disguise Cindy Hyde-Smith really is.

Chris McDaniel (Republican) on On The Issues, Ballotpedia, and Conservative Review.
Also read 5 things to know about Chris McDaniel, GOP candidate for Senate in Mississippi.
"... Here are five key takeaways from the interview:

1. McDaniel says that because he is the only Republican candidate in the race, Republicans have a unique opportunity to unify around his candidacy and avoid a situation like Alabama, where the Establishment went to war against Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala., and ultimately lost a senate seat to the Democrats. “If we coalesce around my candidacy … then we avoid the bloodbath, we avoid intra-party conflict. And if we avoid it, the Democrat loses big-time in Mississippi,” he said.

2. McDaniel responded to criticism from Mississippi’s governor that his switch to Cochran’s open seat was “opportunistic”:

It’s funny about that. When I was his Jones County chairperson when he ran for lieutenant governor, he didn’t think I was opportunistic then. When I stood for him in the chamber and fought for his agenda with his top lieutenant in the chamber for four years, he didn’t think I was opportunistic then. When I filed a lawsuit against Obamacare to render it unconstitutional because our state attorney general did not, and he was my client in that lawsuit, he didn’t think I was opportunistic then. When I helped him get to governor, when I helped him campaign door-to-door [and] every other way, he didn’t think I was opportunistic then. You know when he thought it, Daniel? When he finally met with Mitch McConnell.



3. Asked about his record fighting the Mississippi GOP establishment, McDaniel explained how “sometimes the best way to be an effective senator is to be on defense, and that is to kill their bills behind the scenes or to kill their bills with procedural issues.” McDaniel says he has worked to stop Republicans in Mississippi from increasing taxes and growing the size of government. “I’m just tired of Republicans campaigning like conservatives and then voting like Democrats, and people need to hear when they betray our principles,” he said.

4. On government overreach: “It’s time to bring this Constitution back down to within its original boundaries. We can’t do that with lip service. We can’t do that with slick communications directors and press releases. It just takes fires. You gotta stand up, be heard, and hold Republicans accountable. If we hold our party accountable, we have the avenue by which to effectuate change.”

5. Asked if there are any moral or ethical problems that would embarrass conservatives and sink McDaniel’s candidacy, he promised: “I can tell you unequivocally that no, there’s nothing out there that’s going to be so devastating as to cause that type of embarrassment. ... ”





Do NOT forget :

"... In 2008 when Hillary ran for President against Barack Obama, in a barnburner of a campaign that went down to the wire, Cindy Hyde-Smith, the “lifelong conservative,” supported Hillary.
That’s because she was a Democrat, only switching parties in 2010 to run for statewide office.
She has also been dishonest about it during the campaign. ...

... Lifelong conservatives don’t support Hillary Clinton. Period.

Of course, we do know where Cindy Hyde-Smith is very much like Hillary Rodham Clinton:
Her PAC was handed $250,000 by one of Hillary’s top fundraisers
and she has supported gun control efforts in the past,
which is a signature issue for the Clintons.

... there are major issues she left out, probably on purpose.
There is no mention of illegal aliens, amnesty, ICE, or the border wall.
Immigration is the single biggest issue of our time.
Fail to reform it and it’s all over.
Furthermore, there was no mention of Trump’s trade policy, entitlement reform, or structural reform within the federal government, like scaling back the out-of-control judiciary, abolishing the Department of Education, or instituting term limits for Congress.

Did she not want to anger the US Chamber ?
Is that why these issues were left off the table ?
With millions of dollars in ads coming from the Chamber for her campaign, you bet she doesn’t want to anger them.
She’s their girl.

... She has no plan to balance the budget, reduce regulations, or grow the economy, issues you will find in Chris McDaniel’s “Contract with Mississippi.”
He boldly signed onto Rand Paul’s “penny plan” and spelled out his ideas on other major issues facing Mississippi and the nation.
McDaniel doesn’t care if the Chamber hates him.
He’s for the people of Mississippi.

But not Cindy Hyde-Smith.
She not only voted against the “penny plan” to balance the budget,
she ridiculed it, siding with the Establishment in denouncing it as a political stunt and sideshow.
This is the same silly rhetoric we heard from Thad Cochran.
If Cindy Hyde-Smith can’t agree to cut one percent from the federal budget every year until it is balanced,
then she is not serious about balancing the budget.

Say what you will, but the facts are beyond dispute.
Chris McDaniel is the only true conservative in the special election for US Senate
and the only one willing to stand up for real solutions to real problems.
He’s for Mississippi,
not the Chamber of Commerce. ..."

So consider who will stand for YOUR VALUES, and who has been a LIFE-LONG CONSERVATIVE .

"In office less than two months, Cindy Hyde-Smith has already been given failing grades by two major conservative groups.

NumbersUSA, a watchdog group seeking to stop illegal immigration, gave Cindy Hyde-Smith a failing grade of just 25%. By comparison, the same organization gave liberal Senator Bernie Sanders the same failing grade at 24%, as well as Mississippi Democratic Congressman Bennie Thompson at 22%, making Cindy Hyde-Smith nearly aligned ideologically on immigration with Mississippi’s only Democrat in Congress and the socialist Senator from Vermont. Conservative Senator Ted Cruz scored a 96%. ...

Mark Levin’s Conservative Review rates elected officials on a variety of issues like the budget, spending, the national debt, taxes, the economy, trade, education, foreign policy and defense. In the less-than-two months that Cindy Hyde-Smith has been in office, her Conservative Review score is 50% – another failing grade. ..."

MOST OF THE TIME, Cindy Hyde-Smith is voting WITH CHUCK SCHUMER and NOT WITH DONALD TRUMP !


So again I state loudly so you might actually realize that Cindy Hyde-Smith is voting against us ... MORE THAN she's voting with us !

“ EVERY VOTE FOR R.I.N.O. Cindy Hyde-Smith

IS A VOTE FOR CHUCK SCHUMER ! ”

[trebb]

Either you support Trump or you don't - I guess you like the feel of your underwear being forced into your crack because you sure do a lot of fidgeting...She leads McDaniel by 10 points making him the spoiler the Dems are hoping for...nothing like a real "Patriot" doing all he can to throw away another critical election for our side....

You are obviously obsessed with showing you're smarter than President Trump and I worry for your sense of reality.

[Yosemitest]

She votes with Chuck Schumer MORE THAN she votes with us.
Don't be a DUPE and put another RINO in office.

Cindy Hyde-Smith is one-third the conservative that MS Senator Chris McDaniel is, and you know it.
Senator Chris McDaniel won't vote for Schumer for majority leader.
But unlike Cindy Hyde-Smith who would continue Turtle-Neck's leadership, Chris McDaniel would support a much more conservative leader for the Senate.
Also, Chris McDaniel will confirm a much strong conservative judge and justice that Cindy Hyde-Smith would vote against.



Cindy Hyde-Smith worked for many years as a federal lobbyist in Washington, D.C.
She also worked as the state director for Mississippi for the National Coalition on Health Care, an organization that has consistently fought for bigger government in the sphere of health care.
The organization was a vocal supporter of ObamaCare, the individual mandate, and Medicaid expansion.

Take a VERY CLOSE LOOK at Cindy Hyde-Smith's voting record.

• 7: Co-Sponsors of the CREATES Act, S. 974✘ Nay

  Key Vote 7: Co-Sponsors of the CREATES Act, S. 974

  The CREATES Act would grant relief in court for generic and biosimilar competitors seeking FDA approval. This would clear the pathway for new drugs to enter the market, drastically reducing prices through increased competition. The cost savings stemming from this legislation could reach between 15 percent and 50 percent of current prices for impacted drugs.

  Key Vote 8: Co-Sponsors of the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act, S. 21

  The REINS Act would require congressional approval for economically significant rules promulgated by federal regulatory agencies. Under the REINS Act, the House and Senate would have to vote on a proposed rule and the president would have to sign it before enforcement of the rule can begin. The bill would give Congress 70 days to pass a resolution to approve a rule. If a resolution is not passed, the rule cannot take effect. Should Leader McConnell bring this bill to the floor, FreedomWorks will substitute the cosponsor key vote for the roll call vote.

  "Yea" votes scored.
• 10: Co-Sponsors of the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act, S. 1917✘ Nay

  Key Vote 10: Co-Sponsors of the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act, S. 1917

  SRCA would provide a a comprehensive solution to the myriad of problems marring the federal criminal justice system by offering a three-faceted approach: front-end sentencing reform, back-end corrections reform, and a commission created to study the criminal justice system. These reforms, proven effective at the state level to reducing recidivism, lowering crime, and saving taxpayer dollars can and should be applied to the federal justice system. Should Leader McConnell bring this bill to the floor, FreedomWorks will substitute the cosponsor key vote for the roll call vote.

  "Yea" votes scored.
• 11: Co-Sponsor of the Earmark Elimination Act, S. 2330✘ Nay

  Key Vote 11: Co-Sponsor of the Earmark Elimination Act, S. 2330

  The Earmark Elimination Act would make permanent the temporary moratorium on congressional earmarks put into effect in 2010 by creating a point of order against any provision within a bill that matches the definition of an earmark, and when raised would be stricken absent a two-thirds majority to override. Should Leader McConnell bring this bill to the floor, FreedomWorks will substitute the cosponsor key vote for the roll call vote.

  Key Vote 14: On the Nomination: Jim Bridenstine to be NASA Administrator

  Roll Call 80Array

  Between his time as an aviator in the United States Navy, his firsthand experience serving as the executive director of the Tulsa Air and Space Museum and Planetarium, and his work in Congress, Bridenstine is extraordinarily qualified for the role of NASA administrator. In this role at NASA, Bridenstine will have the ability to bring much-needed reform to the agency, implementing the same principles of free markets and government efficiency that he tirelessly fought for in Congress. Serving on the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, Bridenstine became a champion of issues pertaining to air and space exploration.

  "Yea" votes scored.

  Key Vote 15: On the Joint Resolution: Indirect Auto Lending CRA Resolution of Disapproval, S.J.Res. 57

  Roll Call 76Array

  The passage of this CRA would do nothing to change the prohibition against discrimination in the Equal Credit Opportunity Act that the guidance cites. It would simply roll back the gross regulatory overreach of the CFPB in claiming for itself -- behind closed doors and a screen of smoke -- a power that Congress, in the law that created the CFPB, explicitly banned the CFPB from having. As Sen. Moran said, the CFPB “had to work its magic to find a way to regulate auto dealers.” Good governing is done through accountable and transparent processes, not magic.

  Key Vote 16: On the Motion to Proceed: Resolution of Disapproval on Restoring Internet Freedom, S.J.Res 52

  Roll Call 96Array

  S.J.Res. 52 would undo the Restoring Internet Freedom Order and reinstate the Obama administration’s Internet red tape. This will hurt tech companies, as well as consumers. Internet access is becoming vital to commerce, and many Americans still lack connectivity. In order to get service to these most vulnerable parts of the country, we need an Internet free of the meddling hand of government, so it can innovate and expand as it did for so many years before the Obama-era regulations took effect.

• 18: On the Motion to Proceed: Penny Plan Balanced Budget, S.Con.Res. 36✘ Nay

  Key Vote 18: On the Motion to Proceed: Penny Plan Balanced Budget, S.Con.Res. 36

  Roll Call 99Array

  Sen. Paul’s resolution would balance the federal budget in five years by assuming the repeal of the 2018 Bipartisan Budget Act and from there cutting total outlays by one penny for every dollar spent, continuing for the next five years. At this point, the budget would be fully balanced and spending would be allowed to grow at one percent thereafter. Doing so would reduce spending by $404.8 billion in fiscal year 2019 and by $13.35 trillion over ten years relative to the baseline under current law.

  "Yea" votes scored. Triple Score
• 19: On the Cloture Motion: Toomey Foreign Investment Amendment to H.R. 5515✔ Yea

  Key Vote 19: On the Cloture Motion: Toomey Foreign Investment Amendment to H.R. 5515

  Roll Call 123Array

  Sen. Toomey’s amendment would apply the principles of the REINS Act to CFIUS to make sure Congress has a final say on these regulations. This will mean that only regulations that try to address truly predatory behavior will pass, while those that are unnecessary and anti-market will be stopped from taking effect. This was the intent of Congress when it authorized CFIUS and it should not abandon its ability to set policy in this way. Sen. Toomey’s amendment gives Congress this oversight.

  "Yea" votes scored.
• 20: On the Motion to Discharge: Spending Cuts to Expired and Unnecessary Programs Act, H.R. 3✔ Yea

  Key Vote 20: On the Motion to Discharge: Spending Cuts to Expired and Unnecessary Programs Act, H.R. 3

  Roll Call 134Array

  Approving this initial $15 billion rescissions request in full -- pulling back funds sitting in useless accounts that can only otherwise be used to spend more in the future -- is a task that conservatives in Congress should wholeheartedly endorse. It is one of few opportunities to exercise any semblance of fiscal discipline. It is only one small step towards actually tackling Washington’s out-of-control spending addiction, but it represents a chance to begin this fight.

  "Yea" votes scored.
• 21: On the Motion to Table the Lee Amendment to H.R. 5515✘ Yea

  Key Vote 21: On the Motion to Table the Lee Amendment to H.R. 5515

  Roll Call 122Array

  The Lee Amendment ensures that if the government wishes to making any such detention, that it have clear authorization to do so. The entire text of the Lee Amendment is consistent with the Constitution and with the prior Supreme Court cases that govern this issue. This amendment is narrow in scope, and will not hinder our counterterrorism efforts. This is merely to strengthen American citizens’ constitutional protections. The motion to table would kill this important provision.

  "Nay" votes scored.
• 22: On the Motion to Table Lee-Cruz Amendment to the Farm Bill, H.R. 2✔ Nay

  Key Vote 22: On the Motion to Table Lee-Cruz Amendment to the Farm Bill, H.R. 2

  Roll Call 141Array

  This amendment would add work requirements for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), also known as food stamps. The Senate stripped out this pro-work provision from their version of the Farm Bill. Work requirements are important for helping people rise out of welfare and becoming independent of government assistance. A vote to table the Lee-Cruz Amendment would prevent them from being added back in to the Senate text.

  "Nay" votes scored.
• 23: On the Motion to Instruct on H.R. 5895 to Enhance Trade Oversight✘ Nay

  Key Vote 23: On the Motion to Instruct on H.R. 5895 to Enhance Trade Oversight

  Roll Call 151Array

  The motion to instruct simply states: “[M]anagers on the part of the Senate at the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the Senate amendment to the bill H.R. 5895 be instructed to include language providing a role for Congress in making a determination under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (19 U.S.C. 1862).”

  The administration has misused Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act to unilaterally impose tariffs – which are taxes – for purposes unrelated to national security. These tariffs threaten American consumers with higher prices and American businesses with retaliatory tariffs imposed by our trading partners.

  "Yea" votes scored.
• 24: On Passage of the Farm Bill, H.R. 2✘ Yea

  Key Vote 24: On Passage of the Farm Bill, H.R. 2

  Roll Call 143Array

  This bill makes no effort to reduce dependence on subsidies from the federal government. These subsidies tend to prop up particular crops at the expense of others. Under the last Farm Bill, 94 percent of subsidies went to only six crops. However, those six crops only accounted for 28 percent of production. This is not to mention the fact that one-third of subsidies would go to “farmers” who have a median net worth of $3.8 million. The Farm Bill is one of our nations clearest examples of cronyism for special interests, and the version produced by the Senate continues that tradition, with no attempt at reform.

  "Nay" votes scored.
• 25: On the Paul Amendment to H.R. 6147 ✘ Nay

  Key Vote 25: On the Paul Amendment to H.R. 6147

  Roll Call 171Array

  This amendment, sponsored by sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) would reduce appropriations in the minibus by 11.39% across the board. This would result in cuts of $17.5 billion and would bring spending in line with the budget caps in place before passage of the Bipartisan Budget Act. Given that we are rapidly approaching a trillion dollar deficit, this is a necessary step to reining in government spending.

  "Yea" votes scored. Double Score
• 26: On the Motion to Extend the National Flood Insurance Program✘ Yea

  Key Vote 26: On the Motion to Extend the National Flood Insurance Program

  Roll Call 173S. 1182

  The amendment would provide for a clean reauthorization without reforms, despite consistent efforts by fiscally-conscious members to modify the program, which is over $20 billion in debt. This is more of the same pattern seen all too often in Congress -- Leadership unwilling to support even the most modest reforms to fiscally irresponsible, flawed programs. With NFIP, only 3 of the 41 reauthorizations in the past 20 years have included any reforms.

  "Nay" votes scored.
• 27: On the Motion to Table the Cruz Amendment to H.R. 6147✔ Nay

  Key Vote 27: On the Motion to Table the Cruz Amendment to H.R. 6147

  Roll Call 179Array

  This amendment would prohibit funds from being used to carry out the District of Columbia’s recently-passed Health Insurance Requirement Act. The D.C. mandate states that a “taxpayer who fails to pay the District of Columbia shared responsibility payment imposed...shall be subject to all collection, enforcement, and administrative provisions applicable to unpaid taxes or fees, as provided in Chapter 18, Chapter 41, Chapter 42, Chapter 43, and Chapter 44 of this title.” When dissected fully, this includes levying and seizing property, or even imprisoning individuals for choosing not to purchase health insurance.

  Key Vote 28: On the Nomination of Brett M. Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court

  Roll Call 223Array

  When it comes more broadly to the rampant expansion of the unconstitutional regulatory state, Judge Kavanaugh is perhaps second to none in standing up for the Constitution. According to Kavanaugh, if Congress hasn’t yet opined on a matter of deep economic significance, any regulation relating to that matter should be presumed unconstitutional. He recognizes that lawmaking, under Article I of the Constitution, was delegated to Congress, not unelected executive branch bureaucrats.

  "Yea" votes scored.

  Key Vote 29: On the Conference Report to H.R. 6157

  Roll Call 212Array

  H.R. 6157 is more of the same profligate spending resulting from a broken budget process and members unwilling to stand up for their campaign promises of shrinking government and reducing spending. The bill appropriates $33 billion more for Defense than the FY 2018 omnibus and $16 billion more for Labor/HHS. It also includes a CR until December 7, setting up votes on a spending package during the lame-duck session that will almost certainly be packed with last-minute giveaways to special interests.

Isn't the more salient question...Do we need another Dem Senate seat?

Spin it how you will, McDaniel is only poised to be a spoiler - not a winner. He's the Ross Perot of the current Mississippi elections.

You may be willing to ride your "principles" to Hell, but what satisfaction will you get from it?

Exactly! These ‘purists’ are going to cost us an election. This is how Democrats get elected in Red States!

We get a DEMOCRAT pretending to be a Republicrat if we vote for Cindy Hyde-Smith.
So really, we've got ONLY ONE REAL REPUBLICAN, and that's Chris McDaniel.

Don't get me started on that Alabama STEALING OF AN ELECTION that everyone wants to cover up !

Judge Roy Moore won that election.
Did you watch the live coverage of the vote count?

Did you watch the youtube.com video that shows the reduction in the total count of over 2,000 votes (16,028 dropped to 14,321 Roy Moore Write-in votes) of the COMPUTER TOTAL for JUDGE Roy Moore in just one minute, from 6:58 to 6:59 of the LIVE running voting COMPUTER COUNT video Seth Abramson posted, that he shows in his own video ?
Start at 4 minutes 33 seconds into THE VIDEO and go until 16:20, the end of the video.

Tell me ... WHEN does a running total vote count GO DOWN, and NOT UP ?

The live feed from the Alabama Secretary of State Live Reporting of the Alabama US Senate General Election VERIFIED the voter fraud, and ALL the networks showed it in LIVE TIME.
Judge Roy Moore’s Write-In Vote totals WENT DOWN from 24,000 to 16,000, and then WENT DOWN to 14,000 votes !

You want to explain JUST HOW that happens with the time stamped screen shots, without being FRAUD by someone manipulating the totals in LIVE TIME ?

That's 10,000 write-in votes right there ....THAT WERE FLIPPED FROM JUDGE Roy Moore, TO Doug Jones; making a difference of 20,000 Votes stolen.
And that's ASSUMING that Judge Roy Moore got ZERO more votes while the "Vote Flipping" was being done !

Research Bev Harris.
Watch this video about the same voting machine software that Alabama uses :

Fraction Magic - Detailed Vote Rigging Demonstration ( 24:40 )

Things have changed!

Bennie Smith, a Memphis computer programmer, discovered HOW this is done through a

" ... a GEMS tabulator—for Global Election Management System—which is a personal computer installed with Diebold software that sits in a windowless room in the county’s election headquarters.
The tabulator is the brains of the system.
It monitors the voting machines, sorts out which machines have delivered data and which haven’t, and tallies the results.
As voting machines check in and their votes are included in the official count, each machine’s status turns green on the GEMS master panel.
A red light means the upload has failed.

At the end of Memphis’s election night in October 2015, there was no indication from the technician running Shelby County’s GEMS tabulator that any voting machine hadn’t checked in or that any votes had gone missing, according to election commission e-mails obtained by Bloomberg Businessweek.
Yet as county technicians followed up on the evidence from Smith’s poll-tape photo, they discovered more votes that never made it into the election night count, all from precincts with large concentrations of black voters. ... "

Diebold Election Systems changed its name in 2006 to Premier Election Solutions.
Bloomberg's article titled How to Protect Against Election Day Hacking gives more proof of this by Memphis computer programmer Bennie Smith.

"... The method Smith used to catch the problem should be a playbook for any candidate, party or concerned citizen worried about the accurate tallying of their votes:
Smith snapped some pictures of printed voting tallies (known as poll tapes) at a high-turnout polling location and then compared the results there to the electronic tabulations.
This is a very good, if labor-intensive, way to check to ensure that votes are being counted correctly.

Smith has created a proof-of-concept program called Fraction Magic, showing how corrupt officials could tamper with GEMS to manipulate election outcomes.


This map shows all the locations across the U.S. that use the GEMS vote-tabulation system as of Nov 2016.

In a 30-second ad approved by Cindy Hyde-Smith, Team Cindy is doubling-down on her biggest campaign fib to date: that she is a lifelong conservative. In fact, the ad is titled “Conservative.”

She touts but four issues: Balancing the budget, reducing regulations, growing our economy, and supporting conservative judges appointed by President Trump.

But we must ask an important question: Can any of those policies be attributed to Hillary Clinton ?

In 2008 when Hillary ran for President against Barack Obama, in a barnburner of a campaign that went down to the wire, Cindy Hyde-Smith, the “lifelong conservative,” supported Hillary. That’s because she was a Democrat, only switching parties in 2010 to run for statewide office. She has also been dishonest about it during the campaign.

Throughout the 2008 campaign, did Hillary support a balanced budget? Did Hillary support reducing regulations? Did Hillary support growing the economy or growing government? Did Hillary support conservative judges? No. In fact, for Trump’s latest choice for the Supreme Court, Hillary stated, quite outrageously, that Brett Kavanaugh would “bring back slavery.”

So, if these policies don’t fit Hillary Clinton, and they don’t, then how can Cindy Hyde-Smith call herself a “conservative”? Lifelong conservatives don’t support Hillary Clinton. Period.

Of course, we do know where Cindy Hyde-Smith is very much like Hillary Rodham Clinton: Her PAC was handed $250,000 by one of Hillary’s top fundraisers and she has supported gun control efforts in the past, which is a signature issue for the Clintons.

But Cindy Hyde-Smith’s choice of policies to promote in this ad are interesting to say the least. They are certainly conservative positions, and important ones, but consider two things:

First, they are very safe issues to campaign on. There is nothing that will raise a ruckus with Republicans, or with her major benefactor, the US Chamber of Commerce.

Second, there are major issues she left out, probably on purpose. There is no mention of illegal aliens, amnesty, ICE, or the border wall. Immigration is the single biggest issue of our time. Fail to reform it and it’s all over. Furthermore, there was no mention of Trump’s trade policy, entitlement reform, or structural reform within the federal government, like scaling back the out-of-control judiciary, abolishing the Department of Education, or instituting term limits for Congress.

Did she not want to anger the US Chamber? Is that why these issues were left off the table? With millions of dollars in ads coming from the Chamber for her campaign, you bet she doesn’t want to anger them. She’s their girl.

In closing the ad, Cindy tells us, “With so much at stake for our country right now, it’s an honor to fight for you and our state in the United States Senate.”

But what has she been fighting for? The only bill she has authored is one extending duck hunting season. That didn’t anger the Chamber either !

She has no plan to balance the budget, reduce regulations, or grow the economy, issues you will find in Chris McDaniel’s “Contract with Mississippi.” He boldly signed onto Rand Paul’s “penny plan” and spelled out his ideas on other major issues facing Mississippi and the nation. McDaniel doesn’t care if the Chamber hates him. He’s for the people of Mississippi.

But not Cindy Hyde-Smith. She not only voted against the “penny plan” to balance the budget, she ridiculed it, siding with the Establishment in denouncing it as a political stunt and sideshow. This is the same silly rhetoric we heard from Thad Cochran. If Cindy Hyde-Smith can’t agree to cut one percent from the federal budget every year until it is balanced, then she is not serious about balancing the budget.

Say what you will, but the facts are beyond dispute. Chris McDaniel is the only true conservative in the special election for US Senate and the only one willing to stand up for real solutions to real problems. He’s for Mississippi, not the Chamber of Commerce.

Six month old story.

What is the status today a few days before the election?
You have an info?

[Yosemitest]

No.
But it's the first of the month, and it'll take a few days for that info to be published.

[deport]

It may be headed to a runoff to be held Nov. 27 if needed

[Yosemitest]

If it's a runoff, I hope it's between Chris McDaniel and Mike Espy..
Cindy Hyde-Smith is nothing but trouble for the Republicans.

I recently re-watched the 2014 elections and we almost lost the Louisiana Senate seat to Democrat incumbent because another GOP (’more conservative’) ran with Sarah Palin’s backing. He got 11% of the vote. A run off had to be done between the main GOP candidate and Landriu but it could easily have led to Landriu winning with over 50%. We have to stop shooting ourselves in the foot with this nonsense! We just need an R in the Senate, Trump is advancing the agenda.
