McDaniel responds to ruling

The Chris McDaniel campaign issued the following press release:


Republican Chris McDaniel Responds to Supreme Court Ruling

Laurel, MS -- Republican Chris McDaniel issued a statement today in the wake of the Supreme Court's dismissal of his motion to appeal.

"Republicans in Mississippi are still left wanting for justice after June's Republican primary was decided by more than 40,000 Democrats," McDaniel said. "Worse yet, the courts refused even to hear our challenge," he continued.

"When we launched this campaign over a year ago, we committed to fight to the very end, and many conservatives showed a great deal of courage in standing up with us," said McDaniel. "And the fight to save our republic is only just beginning."

"But now it is time to turn the page and work to enact true conservative change in Mississippi and in Washington, D.C.," McDaniel continued. "It is my hope that conservatives in Mississippi will view this decision as a motivating factor to get involved in Republican politics so we can change our state for the better for future generations."

"In the coming days, I'll be asking conservatives to join us as we continue our fight for principled leadership," concluded McDaniel

Meanwhile, former campaign field director Scott Brewster had this to say in a tweet:

I'm not left wanting anything but for McDaniel to please shut up with his fictitious story. He can go.

I went to High School with Scott Brewster. He was an idiot then and has only grown into a bigger one since.

Oh Jesus! Please tell me he's not going to run for Governor or President.

If his challenge is/was based on Democrats voting in the Republican primary, he simply has no case.
1. There is no law against Democrats voting in the Republican primary. None. No statute prohibits this in Mississippi. One statute states that it is illegal to vote in a primary in which the voter does not intend to support the party nominee, but it is universally acknowledged as unenforceable and, in any event, a voter must be challenged before the vote is cast.
2. There is no statute that bars voting in the primary of one party and the runoff of another party, as long as those elections are not on the same day. For you McDaniel diehards, read the statute. It says only that a voter cannot vote in two different party primaries on the same day, nothing more (excluding prohibitions about voting twice in different places, etc.on the same day).
3. An individual may not challenge open primary laws on the basis of freedom of association. Standing to raise this claim belongs to a political party, not an individual. Courts have made this clear, both explicitly and implicitly.

I assume Mel is consoling Mack at this point?

Probably what's keeping her from filing her report.

Who knows. These people are loons. Chris said he has always dreamt of being a judge. A freaking judge. I don't even want to sit here and try to fathom that.

I am just glad there is no law prohibiting a republican for voting for a democrat in the general election. Thus, me and all the people I can influence will be voting for Travis Childers on November 4th!!

I'll be voting Childers. Not as an "againster" but I think Childers has some things worth voting for which are better than Cochran. Also, hes more personable as opposed to senile. I see little difference between Republican Party and Democrat Party except for talking points...and neither of the parties actually act on what they say.

Here's what I wrote:

Here's your self appointed grammar critique: "for which are better than Cochran"

After weighing your comment here is what I meant to say: "I'll be voting Childers. Not as an "againster" but I think Childers has some things worth voting for which are better than Cochran."

But thanks, anyway, for your efforts in making the internet safe for grammar. Good Day.

McDaniel and a few of his minion's bitterness has no end.

First, let me vent and say how sorry I am NOW that I voted twice for McDaniel. I did, and still do, believe Cochran is not the best man for the job moving forward, but he's the only republican running for the Senate, and he's an ORDER OF MAGNITUDE better than any democrat! Furthermore, I have come to discover, over the last 4 months, that Cochran looks to be a far better senator than McDaniel would have been. This whole ordeal should have been over LONG before now, and I truly believe McDaniel has ruined any future prospects he may have had for holding public office in the future....and that's probably for the best.

That being said, for all of you McDaniel hangers-on, exactly what do you propose to accomplish by voting for Childers? What, you're so angry that you're going to burn your house down? Weren't you voting - as I was - to get representation that is more forceful against the awful policies of the left? And yet, you now believe that, since Cochran is the only republican candidate remaining, it's sound reasoning to vote for Childers, who will promote the very policies you're so strongly against?

Just take a step back, take a breath, get out of the McDaniel echo chamber, and think about what you're doing / proposing others do....voting for a democrat - irrespective of how angry you may be with the Cochran campaign - doesn't make even pretty good sense!

You're still confused about what is meant by "democrats" and "republicans" in the KKKris McDanny news releases.

"Democrats" is a code word for **gg**s as in "I like the Mississippi State football team, but it has too many democrats on it."

"Republicans" means white people who are scared of or think they are somehow better than ni****s and especially the ****** in the White House.

When you make the effort to teach the McKKK bunch about anything in Mississippi law, you're simply not understanding what they are actually saying.

When they say "Democrat," they are actually saying *****r. When they say "Republican," they are actually talking about white people only.

Actually, that would be "all the people and I..." Sheesh. Really?

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
