Present! We ain’t talking about Christmas gifts – it’s the art of not taking a stand
by Alan Lange The late Alan Nunnelee was notorious in both the Mississippi Senate and in the US House for saying, “let your yeas be a yea and your nays be a nay.” Voting “present” for legislation, as opposed to voting yes or no or just not voting, is known euphemistically in the chamber as…

YP Daily Roundup 5/30/18
Charlie Mitchell explores uneasy peace between Mike Espy and Bennie Thompson It is altogether right and proper that Espy should welcome Thompson’s endorsement and for Espy to expect a majority of black Mississippians to support him when he faces the two well-known white candidates, U.S. Sen Cindy Hyde-Smith and state Sen. Chris McDaniel in the…

What to look for the week before the June 5 primary
by Alan Lange There are several things to be looking out for this coming week as we approach the June 5 primaries. The race thus far has failed to capture the imaginations of Mississippians.

Mississippi’s primaries have been “bloodless” to this point
Politics is a funny thing. In late February, Mississippi political observers were looking to June 5 with a real sense that a donnybrook was about to ensue. In the Senate, the long talked about primary between incumbent Senator Roger Wicker and state Senator Chris McDaniel looked like it was going to happen for real. Challengers…

Rand Paul’s ‘Penny Plan’ gets voted down – was it a real thing or a show vote?
Rand Paul’s ‘Penny Plan’ was voted on in the US Senate today. His plan called for the reduction of all federal spending by 1% over 5 years. The bill required overall spending reduction, but didn’t address non-discretionary spending specifically. Non-discretionary spending is over 60% of the federal budget, so an overall cut in spending adversely…

Fighting Mitch McConnell with Trump against you is a losing combination for US Senate
Last night, West Virginia Republican candidate Don Blankenship got the double-whammy put on him. He based his campaign on a “drain the swamp” pitch to voters from the Republican (nee Libertarian) fringe. He actively trolled Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell as “Cocaine Mitch” and trolled his wife (US Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao) as “Chinapeople”. This…

Counties suing Phil Bryant & MDOT over bridge funding controlled by Democrats
Though it is entirely predictable, the Mississippi media has completely ignored part of the story line with regards to the lawsuit filed last week by the Boards of Supervisors from Jasper and Smith counties over road and bridge funding. A majority of the boards of supervisors of Jasper and Smith counties are controlled by Democrats. That’s a…

Gloves up – Democrats infighting for chance to face Roger Wicker
by Alan Lange Just when Democrats nationally become buoyed by their chances in mid-term elections, Mississippi Democrats seem to be content to beat each other to pieces in the early stages of the 2018 election cycle.

Mississippi Democrats pull out the long knives . . . against each other #mssen
The Democratic establishment is now actively fighting venture capitalist Howard Sherman. In a story first reported on Y’all Politics six weeks ago and most recently by the Clarion Ledger, Sherman made substantial contributions to Republican Senator Roger Wicker in 2017. Democratic establishment favorite candidate David Baria began exploiting that in an email to supporters. Not…
