What a deal….I get to do two post on my state of Mississippi…..which is great for not much happens in this state other than the usual budget cutting and services curtailment……

We have had a senator for as long as most of us can remember named Thad Cochran…….. (pause here for reflection)……..everybody has heard of Trent Lott but who the Hell has ever heard of Cochran?  My point exactly….not many.

From talkingpointsmemo.com……..

Mississippi State Sen. Chris McDaniel (R) jumped into the Senate race for Sen. Thad Cochran’s (R-MS) seat on Thursday and was immediately endorsed by two prominent conservative organizations.

McDaniel had been floating a primary challenge to either Cochran or Rep. Steven Palazzo (R-MS) prior to his announcement.

Tea Party groups in the state support McDaniel and within minutes the Senate Conservatives Fund, Club for Growth, and Madison Project offered their endorsements.

“Chris McDaniel is a constitutional conservative who will fight to stop Obamacare, balance the budget, and get America working again,” Senate Conservatives Fund Executive Director Matt Hoskins said in a statement . “Chris McDaniel is not part of the Washington establishment and he has the courage to stand up to the big spenders in both parties. He’s a principled leader who will make Mississippi proud.”

I find it incredible that he was planning to go after Palazzo who was the Tea Party fav in his race against Gene Taylor….Taylor, a Democrat, a blue dog had a 99% rating for voting in favor of the middle class…he was pro-gun, pro-life, pro seniors, everything the retirees in the area could want….but because he was a Dem he was booted out of office in favor of a Tea Party candidate……and now that candidate has not preformed to their liking and he could get a challenger…….

As far as Cochran goes…he will most likely bow out because he has lost the extreme right confidence and Mississippi could have the next Ted Cruz in the making….joy, joy……..
