@rpleavitt: "So the Tea Party got all excited when Chris McDaniel outpolled Thad Cochran 
in the Mississippi Republican Senate primary several weeks back, although he 
didn't secure over 50% of the vote.  So they had to hold a runoff election, 
but Cochran was effectively declared dead even before the voting begin.
Well, not so fast.  Cochran wound up winning.  McDaniel, gentleman that he 
is, refused to concede, and instead went off on a nutty rant.

Apparently, the voters of Mississippi prefer RINOs. "

The sheep-fucker was re-elected by black democraps,
operating under orders from the local leftist machine.
The dem bosses simply "explained" that Cochran
wouldn't take away their benefits like McDaniel would,
and we all know how utterly addicted to Free Shit the
Sons of Obama are.  Deals were made.

Yeah, Mississippi has an open primary.  Anyone could vote as long as they 
didn't vote in the Dem primary.  Which is the way it should be, especially 
in a state where one party dominates.  Might as well give everyone a crack 
at it since the Dems can't field a candidate who can win.
McDaniel went over the edge, and he paid for it.  <sniff>
Baggers had "observers" at the polling places in minority communities.  So 
that flier you referenced was right on the money.  You intimidate people, 
they're not going to shy away, they're gonna double down. "
