Republicans fear Roy Moore, Todd Akin repeat in Chris McDaniel
by Al Weaver | Mar 8, 2018, 12:01 AM

Republican senators are worried about State Sen. Chris McDaniel's, R-Ellsberg, Mississippi Senate campaign and are prepared to once again block him from ousting one of their own incumbents.

As Republicans hold onto a slim 51-49 majority in the Senate, they have prioritized getting Republican Party incumbents and their top recruits across the finish line, especially after losing a seat to Sen. Doug Jones, D-Ala., last year.

This means re-electing Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., electing a replacement for Sen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss., and keeping out insurgent candidates they fear will jeopardize winnable races, as Roy Moore did in Alabama. McDaniel lost a GOP primary to Cochran in 2014.

If they fear a repeat, maybe they ought to consider doing something different.
