re: MS GOP Senate primary reaches a new level of viciousness

When Bernard Kincaid first ran for Mayor of Bham, someone threw a brick through his campaign HQ window on the day of the election. Much umbrage was taken. Bernard was elected. If I had to bet, the brickthrower worked for Kincaid's campaign. Probably the same thang in this situation.

I dunno, the guy has been running this blog for quite a while and managed to get himself arrested for a felony. Unlikely an agent provocateur would go to those lengths. And you'd have to believe Cochran would be willing to go along with exploiting his wife.That's a level of cravenness that even the worst of the political class wouldn't stoop to. Well, maybe a few of them would, but I have to think they'd be few and far between.

Nor do I think the McDaniel campaign had anything to do with it, although it does seem they're more closely connected to this guy than they want to admit now. It does go to show how the fringe has become mainstream, though. The internet gives everyone a soapbox, and that's mostly a good thing, but this is one of the unintended side effects.
