    Mississippi is rated the least-educated state in the union, and one of the most diehards for Trumpery.
    Dominated by Republican politicians, it is the poorest state in America.

    Those are insurmountable barriers for Democrats to overcome in 2018.

    Not that Hyde-Smith has not given it an impressive try:

    Leftwing Slander of their fellow Americans is truly vile. Be assured that the hatred you show us is heartily returned.

    Hyde-Smith takes comfortable lead over Espy in MS senate runoff race

    Republican senate candidate Cindy Hyde-Smith leads by 10

    Espy is so crooked that even the Clinton's keep their distance. And whey you are too dirty and corrupt for the Clinton's you are really in a class of your own. He was indicted during the Clinton years for accepting improper gifts.

    Try to compose yourself. I did not opine concerning your Espy or your Clintons.

    I accurately stated and linked to demographic data concerning Mississippi that assures the election of Hyde-Smith,

    Hyde-Smith (even as an appointed Incumbent) enjoys an overwhelming advantage in a Heavily Republican State.

    It would be a surprise if Espy could cut the margin to single digits.

    Maybe they should try to do so on the issues and not engaging in vile specious personal attacks.

    There was no reason to hold an election because as Trump said/implied that Espey does not fit in with Mississippi.

    Public hanging is a wild west image.
    You know, horse thieves and the lot, carried out under the law

    Lynchings were not public hangings

    Too bad Espy ran on the attack you opponent and call them racist platform instead of on the issues and what he would support to ensure the economy kept producing jobs for instance. He might have had a chance.

    The MSM keeps attacking us, keeps telling us we got to do this we got to do that, and everything we do is wrong anyway.

    We keep telling them to go to Hell.

    We have the lowest unemployment in Mississippi history and we hope to keep it that way.

    We have the lowest black unemployment in Mississippi history and we hope to keep it that way.

    Paid $2.049 for Chevron gas today; that'll make you happy standing in line to vote.

    The lady stood in the crucible and won easily; Trump won 53.

    Now we're hoping the U.S. attorney catches and puts them bastards in prison who did those hate crimes hanging those nooses and signs in Capital J-town. He has promised to do his utmost in bringing these haters to justice.

    That's right, lynchings were just hangings in public.

    The very same tacit that failed Gillum and Abrams. What a hollow "platform" but that is Democrats for you.

    Easy victory. No lawyers have been spotted parachuting into the piney woods, the hill country, the coastal marsh, or the Delta.

    Sour grapes?

    The historic nature of Trump's Senate victory expands.

    Democrats can now spend their time getting their Porn Lawyers and fake victims ready for the next SCOTUS confirmation.

    The nature of the candidates ensured a Republican victory..

    The demographics in MS and AL are not dissimilar.

    Try another lame excuse.

    My prediction that Hyde Smith would win was correct.

    As the least-educated, poorest state in the union, the probability of a Republican victory in Mississippi in the era of Trumpery was overwhelming.

    I merely note the demographic reality and the consequence to be expected.

    Were it Massachusetts, the best-educated state, or New Hampshire, the wealthiest (both with Republican governors, but all-Democratic congressional delegations) the results would have been quite different.

    It is not a partisan calculus, but one based upon empirical reality.

    I don't take undo credit. Given the demographics of Mississippi that I sighted, it was a foregone conclusion.

    Not sure what it has to do with Mississippi's demographics, but your attempted diversion is noted.
