This almost sounds too good to be true, so we’ll try to temper our excitement. Old, crusty Mississippi RINO Thad Cochran may resign on New Years Day. His health has been problematic, and I don’t wish any health issues on the man. But this crusty old RINO has been in the Senate for far too long and is just another example as to why we need term limits. He also fraudendly run his runoff with Chris McDaniel who should be in Cochran’s seat right now. If these reports are true, 2018 will be getting off to a great start.

The 80-year-old’s feeble performance has fueled expectations — among senators and aides who’ve witnessed his physical and mental decline firsthand — that Cochran will step down from the Appropriations chairmanship early next year, or resign from the Senate altogether.
“The understanding is that he will leave after Jan. 1,” said a Republican senator who serves on the Appropriations Committee. “That’s what most of us believe will happen.”
A spokesman for the Mississippi Republican said Cochran hasn’t divulged his plans.
“Sen. Cochran has not made any statements regarding leaving office. He continues to do his work for Mississippi and the nation,” Chris Gallegos, said.
