Establishment control over Mississippi fading?

Postby JDgator » Sun Sep 20, 2015 9:33 pm

Cochran relied on black voters to steal the senate primary. Haley Barbour Used every dirty trick in the book to keep the establishment politician in office. Is this a sign that Mississippi is ready to buck the establishment?

I know this guy won't be voting for any of the incumbents for a few years at least. They all need to go.

Out of all the State elected politicians that one would have thought they could trust by looking from commercials and listening to media it would have been Delbert Hoseman. I guess that old saying JT and Dave had at the end of their show was true "NEVER TRUST NOBODY"

This is true. I don't think you can trust any of them. This topic is really interesting because it has so many different dynamics as well. In essence, both sides of the argument (establishment and tea party) are right on major portions of the debate, for different reasons.

It is true that it was lowdown what Barbour and crew did to get Cochran re-elected by reaching out to non-Republicans to vote. If it is true that they paid for the votes, that would be illegal.

It is also true that Chris McDaniel is a complete fraud and had no business being a US Senator. He is a horrible state senator that has never authored a meaningful piece of legislation. How people don't see through his phony persona is beyond me.

Politics is dirty business. Mississippi politics is down right grotesque.
