From Wikipedia:

"Megalomania is a psychopathological condition characterized by delusional fantasies of power, relevance, omnipotence, and by inflated self-esteem. Adolf Hitler is widely considered to have been a megalomaniac. Historically it was used as an old name for narcissistic personality disorder prior to the latter's first use by Heinz Kohut in 1968, and is used today as a non-clinical equivalent.[2][3] It is not mentioned in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)[4] or the International Statistical Classification of Diseases (ICD)."

"Narcissism is the pursuit of gratification from vanity, or egotistic admiration of one's own attributes, that derive from arrogant pride."

What an abominable douchebag.

I think that he waited until today so that he would not be featured and lampooned on Colbert or Jon Stewart.

Is this the appeal by the guy who just compared Thad Cochran to Hitler? Ironic, because I've been thinking all along of McD, who asserts is was evil to appeal to the black citizens to exercise their franchise on June 24 in a Republican run-off, and who is still trying to throw out everyone's votes in Hinds, Madison and Lafayette Counties, in his SS uniform, except with TP in the red circle. Chris, du verloren!

I read Billingsly's post where he believes McDaniel won the party votes.

Hey Bill--the republican primary was the party votes, now step away from the kool-aid!

Maybe Mitch can use the fees he has 'earned' in this case (supported by all the zealots $75, $50 & $35 contributions to continue this circus) and go enroll in law school again where this time he might study harder and learn some law. Hopefully he can take his client with him and they might both learn - and also learn about sanctions and ethics while they are there.

Tyner, Tyner I've been thinking - NO.

Cowed.

I think that McDaniel has gone off the deep end. The Facebook post with Bonhoeffer! Not only so far over the top to be grounds for certifying him insane, but Chris Et Al apparently never checked the background. Bonhoeffer was a closeted gay, according to the Wall Strret journal's review of his biography. Bonhoeffer left the safety of the US to go to Germany, ultimately being tortured and executed. While McDaniel never served one day during 13 years of war.

But he sure doesn't object to trying to bully others in hopes they cower.

Nor does he mind trying to bilk those with little money out of the last dime they have!

Michael Watson fell off the pleadings when somebody reminded him he has to run for re-election.

Wtf are Professor Chaos and General Disarray thinking. Imagine if the court lets him challenge this. Maybe a lawyer will correct me on this. If a no time limit precedent is set would every past election be eligible for protest? Maybe Disarray wants to be named gov over Haley?

You would think an elected official (especially one on the senate committee for elections) would respect the system enough not to condemn it and make people doubt it. Our republic is lost if every post election turns into a repeat of this circus. The system works because of the faith people have in it. Just like one sin doesn't send a man to hell one voting mistake does not make the election a sham.

I get my laughs everyday reading the comments on the various Prof Chaos FB pages. I think we finally have the true jump the shark moment. His people won't even show him love for his post comparing Thad to hitler.

I agree, @9:41- there were some elections back around the Civil War that don't sit too well- maybe Tinfoil Hat Legal Partners will challenge those as well- just send in your donations of $50 and $75.

"Just like one sin doesn't send a man to hell one voting mistake does not make the election a sham."

ha, that's a good one, 9:41....which barbour are you?

5:26 am What does it mean when one does the same thing over and over expecting different results?

7:24 am It may mean they are still getting cash out of the gullible!

Or, it's dawned on them that they've wrecked their legal careers and are desperate for money.

Or, they are indeed crazy too.

Re facebook post "audaces fortuna luvat":

Quidquid Latina dictum sit altum videtor.

Yes, fortune favors the brave, just not the bravely stupid.

"When I was a kid, my Dad always said when you hear the sound of battle, you go out and fight, so you know, that's all I do now."

I think what's being lost on him is the purpose of this "sound of battle" (is that not weird to tell a kid? Is it just me?). If it doesn't go off until after the "war" is won, it's kinda pointless.

Timeliness matters. It's not technical, it's crucial. The "we lost because we ran out of time" excuse never overturns anything of relevance. I's lamentable at times, but most learn from it and go forward with that knowledge. Chris seems to just not want to deal with responsibility of any kind. Not surprisingly, no great leader I've ever known shuns responsibility.

3:50 pm
I think you have hit a very important point, McD's unwillingness to take any real responsibility. He and Tyner have become hucksters because that is easier than admitting loss and going back to the tedium of an honest law practice, or the hard work of articulating realistic and original policies for the State that can actually be negotiated with the Republican leadership, as opposed to the cheap thrill of demagoguery. It is all about taking a hike from harder, actually productive and realistic but tedious work. So they keep hitting dead ends.

KF Will you please stop posting about this Jones County Redneck. PLEASE. I am begging. Old news from a hopeless idiot.

WELL I WONDER WHAT THIS WILL COST HE HAS SPENT OVER 250,000 WITH THAT STUPID ASS LAWYER .THAT CANT GET SHIT DONE.AND HIS LAWYER TOLD ME HE NEVER DID A CASE LIKE THIS.WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON HERE

The true douche-bags are the posters ^^^ above who decry a man's right to exercise his constitutional rights.

And to the Wikipedia quoter at the top of the page, what's the word for somebody who Googles everything under the sun he can find that will validate (in his own mind) his awkward thought process? Keep searching. You find it. Accidentally.

hmmm...
McDaniel didn't hear " the sound of battle" on 9/11 or those sounds from Afghanistan or Iraq.

If he equates politics with a " battle" , he seems to forget he fired the first shots!

He didn't " hear" a battle, he started one! He was a poor commander in chief who couldn't control his troops( or else sacrificed his troops for nothing) . And, he couldn't anticipate enemy strategy! So , he lost the war.

He has no one to blame but himself but he's too egotistical for self examination!

His whole campaign was blaming others rather than coming up with solutions. So , it's no surprise he can analyze his own mistakes.

He claims God directs him, but overlooks that God parted waters for Moses and gave Moses the Ten Commandments. God gave his chosen real plans and aid. He mocks God by suggesting all God has to give him are inapplicable slogans and law suits doomed to failure! And, he's delusional if he sees himself a prophet.

He should be shunned.

9:36 pm a quarter million isn't bad for a week's work and that's the quality of the filings And, saying a week of work was involved is being generous.

1st year law students can do better. Undergraduate marketing students can write better press releases.

Freshman English majors can write better speeches.

If the lawyers were paid $250000 like you say, it's like ordering a 24K gold ring and getting a string painted with metallic gold to tie around your finger and remind you that you are stupid!

McDaniel 'went Godwin', eh? Well, this is probably all to the good.

The longer this egomaniac drags his ludicrous charade out and exposes himself a little bit more each day as nothing but a phony grifter & a compulsive liar who can't substantiate his wildly malicious libel against others, the more he makes yet more voters drop-to-our-knees grateful that he was deprived of the opportunity to get anywhere near the levers of power over the citizenry of these United States.

The good people of Mississippi - and their fellow Americans - dodged a massive catastrophe making this narcissistic charlatan a US Senator, that's for sure. That boy ain't right in the head.

@8:38. It's obvious now that he's just carrying this on for all the billable hours his firm can charge his 'justice fund'. They know as well as anyone now this effort is a complete sham, but they can't very well let all those donations they duped out of well-meaning conservatives around the country go to waste, now can they?

This way, all the cash they grifted will be going straight into the personal pockets of himself & his partners. Think of it as welfare for seedy hack attorneys.

Why are commenters on here so vicious to McDaniel? Sure he comes off as skeezy, but let the dude appeal if he wants to. The harshest comments make the commenters seem like corrupt Repubs.

He can exercise his Constitutional rights in the manner in which the law is set up. Nobody said he couldn't, but he doesn't get to perpetuate his garbage until the end of time. He's had more than enough time to get some quality evidence, but as it is, he seems to just be wasting a lot of peoples' time and money, not to mention patience. If this were the candidate I chose, I would be terrified at his manner of exercising his rights after something was finished. Exercise them in the present when it matters. It looks foolish.

In the meantime, calling this a "battle", referring to his opponents as "evil", saying God is leading this thing, etc. are not only disrespectful, but they're just wrong. He's the only one fighting, and everyone else is just having to continue to answer his false charges.

1:00 pm
Bc McD is an ideologist who is not in sync with a modern, multiracial Mississippi or democracy: saying it is wrong to solicit the back vote in a Republican run-off, lectures on the need for party purges and punishment for those Republicans who do not accept his ideological vision, threatens to throw out the votes in the most populous, diverse counties of Hinds, Madison, Harrison, and Lafayette where he is badly out of touch, and consistently lies about the real facts of the election, and is terrible for Mississippi's image, a throw back to the demagogues of our past.

1:00 To be blunt - he deserves it.

1:38 sez: "He can exercise his Constitutional rights in the manner in which the law is set up. Nobody said he couldn't, but he doesn't get to perpetuate his garbage until the end of time."

What part of constitutional rights don't you understand, dumbass? And who are you to waddle up in here in your starched draws declaring what he does or does not GET TO do?

Or did you intend to say "I don't like that he is exercising his rights"? Had you just said THAT, you'd have come across a whole lot less stupid.
