    Cochran wooing Dems was an act of desperation, but it may have worked. With the hand he was playing, it was a smart move. His only move.

        @ChasFlemming someone from the outside obviously came in and took over/seized control and righted ship.

        @mattklewis Why would they do that for a now-empty suit? It's clear he's spent. What is their game?

        .@mattklewis Yep, it sure might have helped Thad stumble around DC as a Senator for a couple more years. Lasting damage to GOP.

        @mattklewis If Dems are smart they will realize that if a GOP can get Dem. minority turn out up, maybe they can too with the same strategy!

        @mattklewis Smart move playing the game; getting the votes. However, Cochran win is a loss for state and country! Most incumbents need 2 go!

        @mattklewis The irony is that Cochran winning gives the Dems zero chance; though, they really had no real chance I guess.

        @mattklewis I know it's politics, but this is disgusting. Thad probably won't realize he's won until Friday.

        @mattklewis @joelpollak If he had any honor he wouldn't have done that. Shows how lost we are as a country.
