Babe Ruth would fill his itchy wool trousers with partially digested hot dogs

Hunny...let the man display his unawareness of the situation. Please. It is nothing new.

I totally read this as the kind of mace you spray in people’s faces.  I also totally consider that to be a great idea.

Trump dies before he sees a day of jail time and probably before his trial even concludes

I saw Bill Walton once at a Gov’t Mule concert in New Orleans during Jazzfest (a nighttime concert, not at the actual festival). It was exactly like you’d expect.

I’d need a nuclear-powered flashlight to see through that well-deserved shade.

Stephen Miller is the Trashcan Man (from “The Stand”) of this administration.  “My life for you, Mr. Trump.”

In addition to all the wins you cited, my very progressive friend David McCarty won a seat on the Court of Appeals, beating a troglodyte Trump-loving judge who used to be the lone Republican on the City Council here in Jackson. That guy, Jeff Weill, ran hard on his “conservative” (read: viciously xenophobic and “tough…

That is changing.  If it weren’t, Espy would have lost by 30 points or more.

This white liberal who grew up in Mississippi and has been back in Jackson for 15 years thanks you. We deserve every bit of criticism we get for our backwards policies and politicians, but it’s not the whole story by a long shot. There is a growing coalition of good people — black, white, brown, rich, poor, in-between…

+1 Jeff Flake sigh

“Goddamn it, I don’t care how fucking dumb it makes me look, I’m riding this horse to the very end.”

The REAL money is in the Iraqi Dinar.

White liberal Mississippian who volunteered for Espy (I know the family personally and think very highly of all of them) chiming in here... I’m not surprised to see all the commenters here picking the low-hanging fruit of Mississippi-bashing jokes. And you’re not wrong, but it’s not the whole story.

SNOWFLAKE ALERT

I totally understand  I lived here from 5th grade though high school... was in Northeast USA for 15 years, and have now been back for fifteen.  I always say that Mississippi is the best and worst of everything.  There are some incredible people here, actually... but there are also some of the worst people you will…

White liberal Mississippian chiming in here... I assure you that her “sorry/not sorry” followup to her comments shows exactly whom she was signaling and what she meant. You may have to have lived in this part of the country to understand the code language, but it’s very obvious.

Not disagreeing with you, but a lot of us down here are trying very, very hard to improve things.  The fact that Mike Espy -- whom I know personally and consider to be a great man -- is even within striking distance shows how much progress has been made, with a long way still to go.  It also shows how scared the white…

... and David Eckstein was absolutely delicious.
