    This morning’s radio program was a bit of an emotional roller coaster for Glenn as he reacted to Senator Thad Cochran’s (R-MS) slim victory over Mississippi State Senator Chris McDaniel (R) in Tuesday’s runoff. As the election analysis come out, it is clear Cochran won because the GOP poured money into a get out to vote campaign among black Democrats in the state. Glenn reacted to the desperate tactics employed by the GOP in this race and warned listeners that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

    The data aggregation website FiveThirtyEight has already begun to break down the Mississippi election results, and based on some of the regressions that have been run, it looks like McDaniel was directly impacted by the increased turnout in black communities.
    According to the Washington Post, in the 24 counties with a majority black population, turnout increased by 39.4%, giving Cochran a big edge. The FiveThirtyEight analysis seems to corroborate this idea. In fact, the site’s data has Cochran losing by as many as eight points, if black turnout had not increased so substantially.
    We can do more with these regressions, though. We can hold the African-American percentage of the population variables constant in both the Cochran and McDaniel regressions, while adjusting the non-African American variables. This process mirrors on a county level what would happen if white or traditionally Republican turnout went up but black or traditionally Democratic turnout didn’t change from the first to the second round. In my scenario, I kept the African-American turnout constant from the first round of voting, but let the white vote increase as it actually did.
    The result: Cochran loses a lot of votes. Instead of Cochran winning the runoff by 2 points, or about 6,000 votes, he loses by a little less than 8 points, or about 25,000 votes. He drops about 40,000 votes from his 190,000 vote total, while McDaniel loses only about 15,000 from his 185,000 vote total.

    See the full FiveThirtyEight report HERE.

    While the site says the 10 point swing that moves from Cochran winning by two points to losing by eight may not tell the whole story, pre-election polls had McDaniel winning the election by about eight points.
    “We now know for sure it is all about power. It is not about principles. It is not about people,” Glenn said. “Thad Cochran wants power. The Chamber of Commerce, all they want is power… The GOP – it’s not a Grand Old Party – it’s Guardian of Power. That’s all it is.”

    After more than 40 years in Congress, Cochran is as entrenched as they come. In New York, another four decade-long incumbent, Congressman Charlie Rangel (D-NY), is expected to win a close election against a much younger opponent. Washington D.C. has come to resemble an aristocracy.
    “It is a place of aristocracy. That’s all it is. George Washington warned us. This is not a Tea Party. This is George Washington,” Glenn said. “George Washington warned us the two party system [would] be the death of us… George Washington was right. But we allowed ourselves to be seduced. We bought it hook, line, and sinker.”
    Ultimately, Glenn believes we have been played a group of power hungry elitists. But, hopefully, this election represents the end of the era.
    “America, the gig is up. It is really obvious now. They are doing nothing but playing a game… We are pawns. Period… You have every right to be angry,” Glenn concluded. “[But] you understand this: We still run the country. They might run the system of power, but this is still our country. We still have certain rights that, no matter what they do, only God can take them from us.”

    Evidence of Massive Voter Fraud Found in Mississippi Senate Race

    Posted about 14 hours ago
    Video at the page link:

    <NationalReport>Jackson, MS–Merely hours after the close of a bitter and divisive Senate race in Mississippi that saw Republican incumbent Thad Cochran pull out a win over Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel, irregularities in voting data have emerged. According to multiple mainstream media outlets, Cochran supposedly defeated McDaniel in a razor-thin 51-49 percent victory to win the Senate seat for the great state of Mississippi.
    Immediately following the announcement, McDaniel’s office opened a full investigation into the legitimacy of the vote and quickly turned up surprising results. In 13 districts, multiple instances of intimidation at the polls were reported. Large black men wearing traditional Black Panther garb were reported lingering around polling places, approaching older voters asking questions about who they intended on voting for. In Bolivar and Coahoma counties (traditional Democratic strongholds), election officials withheld submitting voter data in order to get an idea of whether to count absentee ballots or not. In an audit of the voter registration information, it quickly became apparent that MULTIPLE votes were cast by people who were either deceased or had long ago moved out of the district.
    According to exit polling, Cochran won the race by big margins reaching a high percent of the key voting blocks of women, Latinos and Blacks.
    McDaniel was the target of large amounts of out of state financing (a large amount by liberal financier George Soros) as the Democrats set out to make the race be a referendum against the Tea Party movement. Cochran got a late boost from Democrats who turned out in the open primary to deny the Tea Party victory.
    Even in defeat, McDaniel reminded voters that the election was in fact a referendum against President Obama’s Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) and the establishments willingness to go along with immigration reform. “Despite being outspent by an unprecedented $15 million,” he said, ”this race came down to the wire because of illegals and Obamacare. That message will go out across America tonight.”
    Sources within McDaniels office have warned that “this is not over” and that Chris will be challenging the results of the election in court.
    No such irregularities have been discovered in other primary races taking place today.

    ‘Absolutely unbelievable’: Glenn sounds off on Thad Cochran’s slim victory in Mississippi

    Wednesday, Jun 25, 2014 at 11:18 AM EST

    Video at the page link:

    40-year incumbent Senator Thad Cochran (R-MS) pulled out an eleventh-hour victory over Mississippi State Senator Chris McDaniel (R) in Tuesday’s runoff election. Returns showed Cochran with a lead of about 3,800 votes – holding 50.5% of the vote to McDaniel’s 49.5% – with 98% of precincts reporting. Earlier this month, McDaniel actually won the popular vote against Cochran in the Republican primary, but he failed to reach the 50% threshold needed to avoid a runoff by just tenths of a percent.
    On radio this morning, a fired up Glenn explained why he is “really, really pissed off” about the Mississippi results given the questionable tactics used by the Cochran campaign to secure victory.

    “I’m just sick to my stomach,” Glenn said. “I thought I was living in the country where liberty had a chance, where fair play had a chance, where we weren’t talking about a GOP – a Grand Old Party, emphasis on old, outdated, dusty, irrelevant, and never ever going to see a dime from people like me ever again. I really thought that we had a chance of some common sense. But no, no, no.”
    Most polling leading up to Tuesday’s election showed McDaniel enjoying a lead within or slightly above the margin of error, and yet he came up short. So what happened? According to reports, the GOP set up a ground game to court black Democrats who did not participate in the state’s Democratic primary. By law, Democrats who did not cast a vote in the Democratic primary can vote in the Republican primary/runoff and vice versa.
    The Washington Post reports:
    Cochran relied heavily on boosting voter turnout in the runoff among not only mainstream Republicans but also black Democrats, whom his campaign and its allies aggressively courted in the final days of the campaign.
    […]
    In nearly every Mississippi county, voter turnout was up over the inconclusive June 3 primary. But precinct totals show it was substantially higher in heavily African American areas. In the 24 counties with a majority black population, turnout increased by 39.4 percent, giving Cochran a big edge.
    For example, in densely populated Hinds County, which includes the capital of Jackson, turnout was up nearly 50 percent over the June 3 primary and Cochran beat McDaniel by nearly 11,000 votes.
    “Now, I have a question for every black Democrat in Mississippi. What the hell has this 90-year-old fart – a white Republican, the same white Republican that for years the Democrats had been telling you are nothing but old racists – you tell me exactly what Thad Cochran did for you,” Glenn asked exasperatedly. “What the GOP did is they reached out to the black Democrats and got the black Democrats to vote… So they’re much more comfortable with having Democrats come out and vote than having their base come out and vote.”
    As Stu explained, many several establishment Republicans gave both their endorsement and money to the Cochran campaign. Breitbart reports Cochran’s Mississppi colleague Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS) along with Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-AL), Rob Portman (R-OH), Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), John Barrasso (R-WY), John Thune (R-SD), John Cornyn (R-TX), Bob Corker (R-TN), Susan Collins (R-ME), Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Dean Heller (R-NV), Richard Shelby (R-AL), and Mitch McConnell (R-KY) all lined up to support the entrenched politician.
    “Absolutely unbelievable,” Glenn said. “[But] let’s look at the good news. This means… King Obama has done it. Race relations are healed. Because when you can get an old white southern Republican lighting a fire under people – 40% increase in African-American voting – we have been healed. Everybody go to the ocean and look because the sea level is going to start going down at any moment.”
    “Amazing thing: Not only has it been healed, it’s been healed in the last few weeks because none of these people decided to vote for Thad Cochran initially,” Stu added. “They just all decided in the last few weeks how important he was for the state of Mississippi, [and] they had to turn out yesterday.”

    Cochran's Secret Weapon: Democratic Voters

    Higher African-American turnout likely prevented tea-party favorite from winning the Mississippi Senate race.


    (Liz Lynch)

    By Josh Kraushaar
    Follow on Twitter

    June 24, 2014

    Sen. Thad Cochran's narrow victory over Chris McDaniel in the Mississippi Senate runoff deprives Democrats of their argument that Republicans are beholden to the tea-party wing of their party. But it offers them some optimism that African-American voters will show up in healthy numbers for the midterm elections, given that they made the difference in a Republican runoff in a deeply conservative state.
    There was clear evidence that Cochran's attempt to boost Democratic African-American turnout paid off in a big way. In Jackson's Hinds County, where two-thirds of the population is black, Cochran won 73 percent of the vote, 7 points higher than his performance in the primary. Turnout was up significantly in heavily African-American counties in the Mississippi Delta, like Quitman, Sharkey, Humphrey, and Coahoma, where Cochran increased his primary-election margins over McDaniel. Over 347,000 voters cast ballots in the runoff, a higher total than in the primary—marking the first time in 30 years that has happened in any Senate race.
    "Looking at county data, Cochran's #MSSEN win is almost entirely attributable to a large turnout increase among black voters b/t 6/3 and 6/24," tweeted Cook Political Report analyst David Wasserman.
    During the runoff, Cochran made overt appeals to the state's sizable African-American electorate, including several television ads featuring the senator campaigning with black voters. The New York Times reported that the leading pro-Cochran super PAC, Mississippi Conservatives, paid African-American leaders to get out the vote for the senator in the runoff.
    In Mississippi, the electorate is more racially polarized than any other state in the country. African-Americans make up about one-third of the state's voters and they are overwhelmingly Democratic. In 2008, a whopping 98 percent of African-Americans supported President Obama, while only 11 percent of whites supported the president that year. African-American turnout in a Republican primary is a very rare occurrence.
    African-American turnout will be critical for Democrats in several Southern Senate battlegrounds featuring vulnerable Democratic incumbents—Louisiana, North Carolina, and Arkansas. In Georgia, Democrat Michelle Nunn also needs African-American voters to show up at the polls to have a chance at picking off a Republican-held open seat. In all those states, Democrats are already working to identify and mobilize less-frequent voters to show up in November.
    Democratic campaigns are also working to identify issues appealing specifically to engage black voters. In North Carolina, allies of Sen. Kay Hagan have painted her Republican challenger Thom Tillis as racially insensitive and criticized his efforts to require voter identification at the ballots. Landrieu is calling for Medicaid expansion in her state, which would disproportionately benefit African-Americans, and is leveraging her connections in New Orleans, where her brother Mitch serves as mayor.
    Republican party leaders were celebrating Cochran's victory Tuesday night, confident they won't have to spend money in a deeply conservative state or defend a candidate who they aggressively attacked in the primary. But Democrats received a silver lining from the results, too. After all, if African-American voters can help reelect a veteran Republican senator to a seventh term, they could make the difference on behalf of some more natural allies in November.

    Republican Establishment Took Part in Reprehensible Reverse Operation Chaos in Mississippi

    June 25, 2014


    Windows Media

    BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
    RUSH: Mississippi. The Thad Cochran and Chris McDaniel runoff election. It was Operation Chaos in reverse. The Republican establishment sought victory via Democrat voters in the runoff, and they got them. It has been analyzed and it is now practically ontologically certain that without the African-American vote from Democrat-leaning counties, Thad Cochran would have lost by eight or nine percent last night.

    And it's because the Republican establishment was a party to something to me that is reprehensible. I'm holding here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers a little pamphlet that was distributed by both the Democrat Party and the Republican Party establishment. "The Tea Party intends to prevent blacks from voting on Tuesday," and there's a picture of Thad Cochran and all of his great achievements and a picture of Chris McDaniel, Tea Party.
    So the Washington establishment of both parties distribute a flier claiming the Tea Party wanted to prevent blacks from voting on Tuesday. This, combined with other efforts, secured a turnout of black Democrat voters in a Republican primary that gave Thad Cochran, in my view, a corrupt and undeserved victory. And we've got more on this, obviously, as the program unfolds.
    BREAK TRANSCRIPT
    RUSH: So I checked the e-mail during the break and couple people said, "Rush, why still worry about it? It's just Reverse Operation Chaos in Mississippi. I mean, you did the same thing." For those of you who were not around, the Democrats made a movie about Operation Chaos. My name was not mentioned in the movie, but it was Operation Chaos. It was a George Clooney movie called the Ides of March.
    I happened to watch the movie. I didn't know. Nobody had said anything to me about it. It's a political film, and they're obsessed in the first third of the movie with this Operation Chaos. What was it? Well, it was a combination electoral and programming maneuver orchestrated brilliantly -- it was brilliantly conceived, flawlessly executed -- by me. It was 2008, and John McCain had the Republican primaries wrapped up.

    So there was no drama left in the Republican side. But the Democrat side was undecided. Mrs. Clinton was still in the running, challenging Barry Obama. And there were some key primaries coming up in the spring. Indiana, Texas, couple of other places. And I (in the eyes of many brazenly) suggested a plan to Republicans, to whom it didn't matter who won their primaries 'cause McCain had already won the Republican nomination.
    I suggested, if it's possible, cross over and vote for Hillary in these remaining states just to keep this alive, just to keep some drama. It was a programming thing just to keep the subject matter from becoming boring. We didn't want both parties to have chosen their nominees all the way by March. The conventions weren't until the mid- to late summer. Plus, it was an effort to thwart the steamroller that was the Obama freight train.
    Lo and behold, it worked. In a couple of states Mrs. Clinton won and delayed the inevitable nomination that Obama won. But here's the difference, 'cause I said that what happened in Mississippi was Reverse Operation Chaos in the sense that Democrats came out and voted for Thad Cochran. The difference is that during my Operation Chaos, the Democrats did not join me in my effort.

    The Obama camp did not join me and encourage Republicans and work with Republicans to come out and vote against Obama. Hillary's people didn't work with me. Hillary's people did not work with Republican voters to try to coerce them to come out and vote for her. What happened in Mississippi was that the most electable Republican candidate was thwarted by the Republican establishment!
    The Republican establishment was part of this Operation Chaos in Mississippi. This election, it has now been statistically proven, turned on Democrat voters from African-American counties. Here is the post from Nate Silver at the FiveThirtyEight blog. "Without an increase in vote from Democrat-leaning African-American counties, Cochran would have lost by 8%." Now, my Operation Chaos was entirely legal, and this one was, too, actually.
    That's not the point. But again, when I did Operation Chaos, the Hillary Clinton forces did not join me. They were out there openly talking against it. They don't want anybody to think that they were in league with me, heaven forbid. Now, maybe they were secretly hoping that my Operation Chaos worked, but there was no way they were aligning with me or any other Republican organization.
    They were just sitting on the sideline waiting for it to happen. What happened in Mississippi and that Operation Chaos was the Republican Party establishment joined with the Democrat establishment to impugn the Tea Party candidate, Chris McDaniel. Now, I'm gonna turn on the Dittocam. This is the flier that I referenced mere moments ago. Now, you may not be able to read that flier. That's as close as I can get to it.
    Let me read it to you. "Tea Party Intends to Prevent Blacks From Voting on Tuesday -- According to the Clarion Ledger, Chris McDaniel & the Tea Party plan to prevent Democrat voting in the Senate runoff on Tuesday between Thad Cochran and Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel. We know the Tea Party uses 'Democrats' as code for 'African-Americans.' Don't be intimidated by the Tea Party.
    "Let's turn out for all Mississippians and vote for Thad Cochran. Thad Cochran works for Mississippi. Mississippi cannot and will not return to the bygone era of intimidating black Mississippians from voting. We must rise up on Tuesday to have our voices heard on who will represent Mississippi in the US Senate. VOTE THAD COCHRAN." This is the flier that was sent out in Democrat districts and counties that told them the purpose of Chris McDaniel and the Tea Party was to prevent them from voting.
    Now, it would be one thing if the Democrats did that. They do it every election cycle anyway. But for them to be joined, even if from a distance, by the Republican establishment here, simply confirms what we have long said on this program about establishment Washington. It is ruling class vs. country class. It's elites vs. the plebes. You and me are the plebes, and they are the elites, and they are aligning together.
    My friend Mark Levin, F. Lee Levin, makes the point that Washington is not going to be fixed from Washington. This proves it, if there was any proof needed. Washington is not going to be fixed in Washington. The establishment is going to align itself every which way it can against any outside challenger, like this Tea Party candidate. But it does look like African-Americans.
    Democrat African-Americans really did secure the victory for Thad Cochran in a Republican primary. So here we have a result that is not representative of the Republican Party thinking in Mississippi. The technique that was used and the manner in which this was achieved is reprehensible. I want to go back and let you listen to what I said about all this back on June the 17th, just a little over a week ago, talking about the Tea Party and Washington.

    RUSH ARCHIVE: [I]n truth, the only real enemy of Washington today is the Tea Party. The Republican and Democrat establishments, the Chamber of Commerce, the whole way Washington is working, the only enemies are people who want to reintroduce free markets, get rid of crony capitalism, blow up the relationships that exist between Washington and individual businesses or business at large, Wall Street firms. You people in the Tea Party that believe in liberty, freedom, free markets, you represent the problem. To John Boehner, to the Republican establishment, to the Republican consultants, Obama is not the problem. Anybody opposed to the way Washington does business today is the problem, and that would be you and me.
    RUSH: Essentially the Republican base, the Tea Party voters, are considered the problem. And I could easily hearken back to the Peter Beinart column in the Atlantic Monthly that I quoted last week, in which he issued a warning to the Republican base (summarized), "Hey, this is a changing country. You know, we're a country now that's demographically changing. We're changing into the triumph of the minorities, social justice and tolerance.

    "That's what this country is heading to; it's what we're gonna be known as -- social justice and tolerance -- and your age-old way of doing things is old-fashioned and out of fashion, and you better learn that real fast. And the more you oppose this new America, the faster you're going to make it happen." So the gauntlet was sort of thrown down. This is really reprehensible. I mean, the Democrats doing this kind of thing, accusing us of racism, fine and dandy. But to have the Republican establishment as part of it is... It's valuable in the sense that there can be no doubt now if there was any, since it's highly instructive. Thad Cochran? Come on. I'll tell you something else this indicates.
    This is something that I have sensed for many, many moons. I've sensed this way, way back since the Christine O'Donnell and Sharron Angle campaigns, some of the early Tea Party candidates. I think the primary thing that matters to the Republican establishment is the Senate, more so than winning the White House. The Senate is what they are all about here. I can just tell you, Thad Cochran is not gonna get this same bunch of people that voted for him in the general election that voted for him last night and yesterday.
    He is not gonna get nine percent of the African-American vote from those counties voting for him again. He's gonna have to come up with some other kind of trickery or strategy if he's to win in November. But it is the Senate and those chairmanships and being in charge of the money that seems to have everybody in the establishment salivating. Not to change the direction of the country, not to reverse the course we're on, but to simply ascend to the captain's seat of it.
    BREAK TRANSCRIPT
    RUSH: Another difference between my Operation Chaos and the one the Washington establishment ran yesterday in Mississippi, I didn't fund any Operation Chaos effort. It was just something to do here on the radio. I just urged people, Republicans to cross over if they could, one time, to vote in a Democrat primary, vote for Hillary, keep that race alive. I didn't spend any money on it. I didn't donate any money. I didn't raise any money. I didn't ask anybody to send any money to Hillary or anybody else, but in the Operation Chaos that took place in Mississippi, the Washington establishment, including the Republicans, are funneling money into the anti-Tea Party campaign. When you get into the numbers and you look at some of the turnout in some of these counties, it's unreal, the level of black turnout in a Republican primary yesterday.

    Thad Cochran's Coalition of the Lied To

    June 25, 2014


    Windows Media

    BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
    RUSH: We're gonna start with David, Lees Summit, Missouri. It's great to have you on the program. Hello, sir.
    CALLER: Hi, Rush. Hey, for years the Democrats have put policies in place that basically hurt the black community. But come election time, the Democrat establishment tells the black community, "You have to come vote for us, support us, because the alternative would be so terrible as to vote for somebody that might put a different policy in place." So now we have a Republican establishment who endorses policies that most conservatives are against and they don't defend conservative policies. They go after Tea Party candidates. But when their establishment candidate wins the election, they tell conservatives, "We need to support that candidate," even though that person won't do what the conservatives want them to do when they get elected. Isn't it exactly the same thing?

    RUSH: Yeah, they make a play at party unity, but as you say, it's a one-way street. They will not in any way, shape, manner, or form support a Tea Party idea or candidate. But they want the Tea Party to think so. This is the great trick that they're trying to perpetrate here. The establishment wants the Tea Party, even after this debacle in Mississippi, to think that they're in support in some ways.
    But I want to go back the first point you made. Democrats use the African-American vote to cement their power, yet Democrat policies have destroyed the black family. Democrat policies are keeping African-Americans poor. They are denying African-Americans opportunity and so forth. But African-Americans continue to vote for 'em. Yet what do they do?
    They then go tell these same African-Americans they've gotta vote for this Republican, Thad Cochran, because that Republican is gonna take away everything we've given you. So obviously the African-American vote does not see the Democrat Party's effect on your life the way you and I see it. They see the Democrat Party as great saviors. Even if the Democrat Party really doesn't do anything for 'em economically, they are convinced that the Republican Party will...
    I don't know. Do what to 'em? Not let 'em vote? I don't know what. The irony of this is that both parties went to voters who are traditionally told, "Don't ever vote for a Republican! It's gonna be the end of every good thing that ever happen to you," and they end up voting for a Republican, Thad Cochran in this case, despite being told for 50 years to never, ever do that.
    "You're an Uncle Tom if you do that!" Yet they went out and did it, and they went out and did it because they were lied to, which seems to be rather easy to do. This group seems susceptible to lies. They were lied to, and they were told that the Tea Party candidate was gonna try to suppress their vote and deny them liberty and freedom or whatever else, and they believed it.
    BREAK TRANSCRIPT
    RUSH: I wonder what the campaign slogan was in Mississippi the past couple days. Uncle Toms for Thad? 'Cause I thought it was the worst thing you could do as an African-American. Voting for a Republican is absolute worst thing you could do, but somehow they were made to believe that voting for old Thad would be fine and dandy. And why? Well, 'cause they were told that Thad's done a lot for black people in Mississippi.
    It must be the first time they've been told that. It was nine percentage points. Insider Republicans in the Senate bought nine percentage points, eight or nine percentage points from the black Uncle Tom voters in Mississippi. (interruption) Well, isn't what they call Clarence Thomas? Condoleezza Rice? They call 'em Uncle Toms, the Republicans. These guys had voted for Thad? Uncle Toms for Thad. Now, I want you to listen to a sound bite here, folks.

    Gloria Borger is an establishment media babe who's worked everywhere. She's worked at Newsweek until it went out of business, and now she's at CNN, and it should be out of business. She was on Anderson Cooper 34 last night. Wolf Blitzer was the fill-in host, and Wolf Blitzer said, "Hey, Gloria!" He was all excited. He said, "The establishment's coming back. A lot of folks thought that after Eric Cantor's sudden setback defeat a few weeks ago, all of a sudden a lot of people thought that Chris McDaniel was a very good chance to beat Thad Cochran. It doesn't look like that's happened. We're projecting Thad Cochran the winner."
    BORGER: If I were a potential Republican presidential candidate looking at what's going on in the state of Mississippi, I'd have to say, "You know what? Thad Cochran is a conservative Republican. He managed to get out Democrats, many of them African-Americans, some moderate Democrats, and formed a coalition because they could cross over and vote for him in this Republican primary," which is kind of a quirk in this state. But if you look at the coalition that he's established, and I'm a Republican who wants to broaden the tent of the Republican Party, I'd be looking at that and saying, "You know, that's a very interesting group that he's put together," and it's something that the Republican Party ought to consider as it heads into 2016.
    RUSH: How clueless do you have to be to seriously say that on CNN, that Thad Cochran put together this winning coalition of black voters and moderate Democrats, that all Republicans should heed the lesson, all Republicans should learn that this is what they're going to have to do if they're going to win elections? Thad Cochran, to this moment, doesn't know what happened. He's just sitting there. He's the robot recipient of all this. (interruption)
    We'd have to ask her if she thinks that this same coalition is gonna vote for Thad Cochran in November, but does anybody want to take any bets on that? This isn't a "coalition." Thad Cochran didn't put anything together. The people that came out and voted in that primary yesterday, African-Americans and Democrats, did not do it because they loved Thad Cochran. They didn't do it because of Thad Cochran's machine and his brilliant strategy and campaign and all that.
    They did it because they were lied to by Republican and Democrat establishment types who told them that the Tea Party candidate wanted to do I don't know what to 'em. Well, there was a flier that went out that said the Tea Party doesn't want you to vote; the Tea Party wants to take away your right to vote. Chris McDaniel does not like you able to vote. A big pamphlet that went out said that.
    But this is classic. This is how the inside-the-Beltway establishment thinks. This is why they think Republicans ought to do amnesty to get some Hispanics. This is a put together a coalition of these minorities, and this is how you win. Except it's not what happened, and it won't happen again in November. These people that voted one time for Thad Cochran are not gonna cross the aisle and vote for him again.
    But, on the other side of this, it is, I think, now undeniable that 8% of the Thad Cochran vote was African-Americans from African-American counties. Now, look. Just forget everything else and just look at that. Look what happens when that happens. I mean, how many times have you heard people say, "If Republicans could just bust up that Democrat-black voter coalition, you don't have to to get 'em all.
    "Just get 10% of 'em. Just get 5% of 'em and it would change everything." Well, in a way this sort of illustrates that. But at the end of the day, it really doesn't because these people weren't vote for Thad Cochran. They were voting against the Tea Party because they had been lied to about what the Tea Party candidate was and what he believed. They weren't voting for Cochran. You think they were voting for Thad Cochran?
    There's no way they're voting for that. He didn't put the together any kind of coalition. But it goes to show, in some ways the Democrats could be a little fearful, 'cause they're the ones that made this happen. (interruption) Well, see, that's the thing for me. If the establishment Republicans would just spend 10% of the energy they expend trying to beat Republicans into beating Democrats, who knows what we might be able to accomplish.
    The Republican establishment spends more money and more time trying to beat other Republicans than they ever do... Well, not ever. They do raise money to beat Democrats at elections, but, I mean, you get my point here. They really were passionate about this. It was all-out warfare. This was seek and destroy. This was leveling everything. This was a nuclear attack, the kind of attack they will not launch on Democrats but they are happy to launch on their own people.
