"Cochran ad seeks Democratic votes for a Republican primary," Jackson Jambalaya
"Desperate or smart? That 'tis the question as
an ad in the Mississippi Link
asked "democrats to cross over and vote in the republican primary to
ensure our community's interest is heard."
Republicans asking Democrats
to vote in a Republican primary? Interesting.
The ad says at the bottom of the page
it is paid for by "All Citizens
for Mississippi". The organization is
not listed on the Secretary of
State's website although it could be registered.
Something else that is interesting is
the ad's claim that historically
black universities received $18 million in federal funds. Is that in 42
years or just last year? One would hope the ad meant those schools
received the money last year because the average amount of federal funds
per year over 42 years would be pretty low.
See page 5 in the Mississippi Link."...via Free Rep.

10/16/13, "GOP Seeks to Rid Itself of the Tea Party," Rush Limbaugh, 10/16/13
"I
just want you to be prepared. There's gonna be an all-out assault on
the people that you think have done a good job and by extension an
all-out assault on you. It's gonna come from both parties, gonna come
from the media....
There will be a fast move in Republican circles to push
"comprehensive immigration reform," to go all-in now. I can't tell you
what the Republicans think they're gonna achieve, except this: I really
do believe that some of this is oriented toward driving the
conservatives out of the party. I really think some of this is oriented
toward the Republicans actually seeking to get rid of their
conservative base.
Even if it takes 15 years in the wilderness to rebuild a new base of
people who don't embarrass them, of people who are of the right
temperament. Maybe that's what they're willing to do. Maybe they've
got commitments from their donors to keep 'em afloat if they just get
rid of some of these wacko right-wing extremists. "We'll just go all-in
here. We'll try to put together a new base of really responsible
moderate, temperate, independent-type American voters.
"We'll go out, we'll expand our demographics, we'll get a lot of
Hispanics doing this, by throwing away the Tea Party, and we'll get a
lot of women voters coming back. We'll throw away our base, and we'll
get the transgender and the lesbian, gay, bisexual groups, we'll go out
and get the Indians that are ticked off at the Redskins. We'll get them!
We'll come out against that, and pretty soon we're gonna own the
country."
That is the way they're thinking, and all they gotta do to bring all
that off? All they gotta do is throw away their base. That's Christmas
morning for 'em. Now, the Democrats never stop whipping up their base.
Have you noticed? There's never any pressure on the Democrats to get
rid of their base, and you never hear Democrats ripping in their base.
You never hear the Democrats acting embarrassed -- and believe me, their
base is genuine Looney Tunes....
But the Democrats never act embarrassed by 'em, never act like they
want to get rid of 'em. They never, ever do anything other than whip
them up, keep them engaged, and turn them out.
Meanwhile, the
Republicans are tamping their base down. Why? '
Cause the Democrats
don't like their (the Republicans') base, and it's more important to be
liked by the Democrats within the establishment, I guess, than it
is to have the current base they've got."...

Further substantiation of GOP disenfranchising Republican voters in the Mississippi race and before that in 2012 in Indiana.
