Hyde-Smith recent comments saying she would attend a public hanging sealed her fate. This will turn off moderate voters along with McDaniel supporters not coming out to vote. On top of that it will energize black voters.

Add in the likelihood of the GOP losing Florida and Arizona and the Senate isn’t looking too good now...

She deserves to lose. How fricking stupid can you possibly be?

This is going to be a must win for the GOP.

Florida is in the bag for Scott.

That is 52-47 GOP. MS win would be 53-47. We need as many votes as possible to neuter Mitt and Murkowski.

I agree it was dumb as hell to say because of the sensitive-arse climate we live in, but is there any evidence she meant it in any sort of racist manner? Wasn’t she just making a lame joke using hyperbole to say she would have gone to anything the dude asked her to?

She better apologize her arse off. Grovel, if you will. That was a STUPID thing to say, even if it was off the cuff and not meant literally. Just dumb.

Yes, but the media will make it into something far, far worse. Which she sort of should have thought about beforehand.

Are we talking HRC/Brennan/BHO/Clapper, because I'll drive to MS to vote for that lady who wants to see that.

Smith's handlers should have sent her on a vacation to Siberia until after the election.

Apologizing is a mistake. All it does is make dems and the liberal media smell blood in the water and prove she did something wrong.

If it was a joke, it was a very stupid one on her part. Was she at the public square or something?

It really doesn't matter what the context was or what she actually meant behind it.

It should be common fricking sense to never say anything like that in public. There's a million other ways to try and make the point that she was attempting to make that doesn't end with the entire nation calling you a bigot.

No wonder she refused to publicly debate for so long.....she's a fricking idiot.

It's kind of amazing she has made it this far in politics if she doesn't have the presence of mind to refrain from saying some dumbass shite like this while she is in the middle of running for a spot on the US Senate

The worst part is she said it Nov 2 and there still hasn’t been a statement of apology or any statement at all. That’s horrible optics.

It was a very distasteful joke if that is what she is alleging.



What kind of joke ends with a front row seat hanging?

Get her out!

At the very best....she's just completely tone-deaf and too dumb to realize what comes out of her mouth.

I think she still wins because Mississippi is a ride-or-die Republican state but it is going to be a hell of a lot closer than it has been.
