Remember Mississippi

Watching the Mississippi U.S. Senate race unfold over the past few months, it has become very clear who our friends are and who our enemies are.

It's also become painfully clear that more and more often, our enemies are within our own party.

Thad Cochran's campaign and supporters spent millions demonizing conservative Chris McDaniel, a fellow Republican.  His allies spent tens of thousands of dollars calling Chris McDaniel racist and turning out Democratic voters to steal the Republican primary from McDaniel, who won the clear majority of Republican votes.  They are willing to sacrifice principle for power, conviction for compromise.  They are willing to ignore the voice of Mississippi's Republican voters by recruiting ten of thousands of Democratic voters to cross over and vote for Thad Cochran, who campaigned on a platform of big government spending and food stamps.  We will not forget how they sought to crush our voice.

Conservatives are not the ones being divisive.  We are not the ones alienating the base of the Republican party.  The liberal Republican establishment is.  We want to fight together for one nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all.  They want power.  And we will remember how they betrayed us to stay in power.

Conservative Republicans must stand together. We must stand on principle. We must stand with courage and conviction.

Remember Mississippi.  And don't stop fighting.

"I want to be very, very clear: there is nothing dangerous or extreme about wanting to balance a budget!  There is nothing dangerous or extreme about defending the Constitution and the civil liberties therein.  And there is nothing strange at all about standing, as people of faith, for a country that we built, that we believe in."
- Senator Chris McDaniel
