MS Senate GOP Primary: Cochran calls opponent 'extremist' who will cut spending

http://politicalwire.com/archives/2014/06/11/cochran_goes_on_attack.html

"After months of milquetoast statements and letting surrogates do any campaign trash talking, Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) went on the offensive in Hattiesburg on Tuesday, calling his opponent Chris McDaniel 'an extremist' who would hurt Mississippi with indiscriminate cuts to federal spending," the Jackson Clarion Ledger reports.

I guess that is in a way an admission that Mississippi and many other RED states get a lot of support from the Federal Government that they are always lambasting.
