Cindy Hyde-Smith: Hang In There!

That racist won.

The Mississippi run-off comes to an end. The Republicans will continue to be party that represents racism, stupidity and greed.

Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) wins the run-off despite a flurry of racist and incompetent remarks.

Hyde-Smith defeated challenger Mike Espy, a Democrat, in the runoff election for the U.S. Senate in Mississippi. Hyde-Smith was appointed earlier this year by GOP Gov. Phil Bryant after Sen. Thad Cochran, also a Republican, stepped down. Hyde-Smith is the first woman elected to the Senate from Mississippi, and the Republican majority in the Senate will grow to 53-47.

It is a slim majority that could confirm Supreme Court nominees, treaties and Donald J. Trump's appointees.

Congratulations to Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith on your big WIN in the Great State of Mississippi. We are all very proud of you!

And we can thank racism for the results.

Espy, her opponent, is a former congressman and former agriculture secretary.

Mike Espy couldn't muster enough votes to beat that racist Cindy Hyde-Smith.

Hyde-Smith and Espy advanced to a run-off because neither won 50 percent of the vote in the general election on Nov. 6. Hyde-Smith won 41.2 percent, compared to Espy's 40.8 percent, and Republican Chris McDaniel picked up 16.5 percent.

Trump endorsed Hyde-Smith, and visited Mississippi on Monday for two rallies supporting her campaign.

The Republicans will continue to hold on to the rural, ignorant, condescending white vote.
