Poor baby.

[NotALoserLikeYou]

I think Mississippi is one of the poorest states in the country, if not the poorest. Of course they don't want an ultra right wing nut who wants them to have NO social benefits.

[doggie]

Now he is calling for some legal action. He is so much more Christian why are people persecuting me.

Little confused. Did this guy loose or was it to close to tell.

He's a sore looser and it's all the Duggar's fault he lost :whistle:

It's Sarah Palin's fault. She endorsed him.

[PennySycamore]

You know what strikes me as absurd about this is that McDaniel is saying that the primary was not decided by Republican voters. The voters may not have been all Repugs, but they damn sure were all citizens of Mississippi, unlike those two fools behind McDaniels.

-who voted for John McCain in the 2000 GOP primary in SC because she knew that Dubya was an idiot

My understanding is that in Mississippi, Democrats could vote in the Republican runoff IF they had not voted in the Democratic primary.

"McDaniel's comments are a clear reference to the Cochran campaign seeking out the support of African-Americans and Democratic voters in the state to bringing him over the finish line in the runoff. Even though McDaniel won in the runoff it was by a slim margin. When the race was called late on Tuesdaywith 98 percent reporting Cochran led McDaniel 50.6 percent to 49.4 percent."

McDaniel is claiming that there were Democrats voting Republican for Cochran that had already voted in the Democratic primary.

Crazy much in Mississippi?

[Jana814]

Howl: thanks for explaining!! Was trying to figure what the clip ment.

[notsocommon]

Um, if your state allows party A to vote for party B, then SHOCK of all SHOCKERS dems can vote for republicans and vice versa. If the state does not allow that, people can easily change their affiliation to vote accordingly.

I am registered as independent. last primary, I voted republican in an attempt to keep some jackass tea bagger from getting elected. ( I felr oh so dirty) My husband changed his affiliation in order to do the same. It was legal, and We exercised our full rights as voters to do so.

[blisterine]

...cuz it's America and we can't vote for who we choose!

I just know I am sick of Cochran/Macdaniel signs still at every corner and on every roadway. Put Smuggar to work picking up old campaign signs!

[Mecca]

If I was running for office, I would hire a Duggar to help campaign for my opponent. I would for sure win.

That sounds like actual work. Pretty sure Smuggar is unfamiliar with that concept.

Haha!!

Was American politics always this awful?

[toejamflipflop]

Sour Grapes . Josh must be stumping for a job as an aide on Capital Hill if he is that involved with this campaign. I hate to tell him but he better pack it up and move to Old Miss and live there for several months before he goes stomping around looking for a job from this guy. He just can't be appointed a job by this guy because he campaigned for him. I am pretty sure its all about the residency situation. Maybe he can be a butler for the guy. He is good at kissing asses. Josh I will be watching to see if this anything comes of this such as a job for you as I also watch other outcomes that are the same. Capital Hill is trying to get rid of Nepotism not promote it among its residents.

My husband and I just mailed in our cards to change our affiliation from unaffiliated to republican to do the very same thing in our August primary!

Me thinks Sarah Palin's AIP goons whacked him cuz he was going to sing like a canary.

"We have to make sure that the republican primary was won by republican voters."

Apparently the rebub voters DID win since they won't have to deal with an asshat who wants to cut off food for kids.

Anna really drew the attention. Such a bobble-head.

Historically speaking, yes. The only difference is the amount of technology available. (Look at the Hamilton/Jefferson feud, the Presidential campaigns of 1800, 1828, 1840, 1860, 1876, 1912, 1928, 1960, 1964, 1968, 1972, and the Know Nothing Party in the 1840's and 1850's,etc...)

[CynicMom]

Democrats in Mississippi (both of them *snerk*) might be motivated to vote for the craziest Republican candidate they could find in order to lower the Republican chances in the general election.

There was a comment on the thread about Josh, Anna, and the MKids how Smuggar is pretty much a joke amongst Capitol Hill staffers.

If the state has open primaries the party of voter does not matter. The only thing that matters is that voter didn't vote in the other parties primary. I realize to Smuggar and Smuggarette that little things like that don't matter, since they are butthurt that Smuggar's chances of working in Senator McDaniel's office just went down the shitter, because their nutjob lost. :violin:
