cochran won by almost 25-points in his reelection six years ago. a political science professor at jackson state university, says it would be a long shot for childers to beat either republican but that tea party supporters do have a choice to make. >> the tea party electorate can do one of two things. they can get out their vote so that the democrat does not win because that is a very, very plausible case if they don't get out the vote. or they can stay home and show, in their opinion, how much power they have. and so the question is one of those two being the answer, i just don't know because i don't know what they will do. >> reporter: cochran would be a strong favorite to retain his seat in november in part because of his broad appeal. in fact in his primary, he was able to turn out black voters by reminding them of his record of bringing back funding to the state and warning about what mcdaniel would cut. former governor haley barbour's nephew was one of the orchestrators of that strategy, which enraged tea party activists. barbour himself, who

now, i mentioned that cochran had a thousand copies of this printed up. he had his subordinate admiral coburn and his subboard nates distribute this, they nailed it up on trees, they are trying to get the word out. incredibly, the americans helped in the process, unwittingly, by reprinting the proclamation in their newspapers. now, they do this because they can't wait to denounce it because they just think this is the most horrible thing on earth and it's really an invitation to slave revolt and they want to assure slaves that they are really being lulled away and the british are going to sell them away into slavery in the west indies. so by anything that peers in the çfyfs[(t&háhp &hc% that's the culture of the day. and this is world in which black people and whiteçi people live right intermixed amongst each other. and so anything that white folk talk about, black folk learn about and they interpret it in their own way. so the national intelligence doesn't mean to be promoting slave escapes but it unwittingly does so. and the orders now are different. s

you've got to vote for thad cochran against this guy, this wayne root clone, this tea party guy, chris mcdaniel. why? because he wants to cut spending. what thad cochran promises is to keep the welfare checks coming, to keep the food stamp checks, to keep the unemployment checks coming in to keep all the bacon coming from washington, d.c. for every employer in the area. the election was sworn by democratic votes in the republican primary. there's no hope for america at all. if both parties act the exact same way. at this moment it's pretty clear they do. the way you get elected is by promising people three things. free contraception's, free obama phones, free everything. free health care. you promise people free and some of them are just dumb enough and a good enough to vote for it. but there is no free. there is no free lunch. >> go ahead. >> name is scott nelson. i heard that you point out politicians -- summit and dull outfitters once they are elected. did you do that part? >> yes, i did. >> george will has referred to the current campaign finance laws as and incumbent protection re

and the other thing that happens is the replacement of warren with admiral alexander cochrane as the new commander of the north american station. and cochrane was a real hater of americans, his brother had been killed at york town, beheaded by a cannonball and he was quite eager to give the americans a good drubbing. and upon his arrival in bermuda, in taking command in april of 1814, cochrane issued cockburn a cart blanche. quote, you are perfect liberty as soon as you can muster a sufficient force to act with utmost hostility against the shores of the united states. their seaports laid in ashes and the country wasted will be some sort of retaliation for their savage conduct in canada. a couple of points here. cochrane was talking not about york, but newark, which was on the niagara frontier in which where american troops had truly done a heinous thing and burned homes and left civilians out in the dead of winter. there had been other actions along lake erie that had also caused quite a bit of concern. the other point, of course, is that cockburn had been laying seaports and ashes a

sound like much to some of the royal navy commanders here, but coburn urges his superior, admiral cochranush ahead with a possible attack on washington. and coburn's idea is to make use of several different waterways in an attack on washington. if the british force sailed up on the potomac, everybody would know that the washington was the ultimate target. coburn decides or recommends that the force be split up. that one squadron sail up the potomac river and threaten the capital and the city of alexandria. the main force is going to go up the patuxent river into southern maryland. and the advantage of the patuxent is it would kind of shield the ultimate british intention because a move up the patuxent might mean many things. it might mean an attack on washington. but it could also mean an overland attack on baltimore. or an attack on annapolis. or it could mean that the british were simply chasing after commodore joshua barney. who was the american commander of the chesapeake flotilla. who had a -- flotilla of shallow-draft barges that were perfectly suited for navigating the shallow wate

that's exactly what coburn recommends and exactly what the british commanders, admiral ross,ster cochranwho's in charge of the entire fleet here in north america, agree to do. so an august 19th of 1814, the army lands in benedict, which is about halfway up the patuxent river from the bay toward washington. meantime, you have the other squadron underneath, captain james gordon sailing up the potomac, and still some other ships move up the chesapeake bay to threaten baltimore. so they had this three-pronged operation. the main attack is accompanied by the 4,000 troops and admiral coburn and the royal marines. and after landing at benedict, they move jointly by land and by water, royal marines and barges, further up the river and succeed in trapping joshua barney and his flotilla. barney basically scuttles the flotil flotilla, has it blown up, and escapes with his men. but the net result of all this is the american commanders back in washington were utterly paralyzed as to what they should be doing. they had one squadron coming up the potomac, a force they weren't quite sure how large in th

ask senator cochran in mississippi about that. >> a lot of what we are outraged about in ferguson, onn island, are prosecutors that win elections that we didn't vote and the numbers we could repair in november. you know, people are concerned about ferguson. they are also concerned about impeachment. many believe the president could be impeached. when you say the p president isn't on the ballot, he is. if mitch mcconnell becomes majority leader. >> yeah. we saw the impact of that in 1998. although that was real impeachment, not talk about impeachment. but still the hemries are fresh for many people. that led to an extraordinary information where democrats picked up seats in 1998 whereby all track record they should have lost them. there is a precedent for this. i think there is a combination of factors. often at the national level the campaign strat egists and political leaders think they have a handle on where the electorate will be at. they think it will be about whatever they think they can plan. often a combination of local stories can be good motivating factors for voters. could b

challenger but it seems they are going to come in and try to save pat roberts, somebody similar to thad cochrant had to run a real race for some time. how much does this worry the national republican party and how much are they going to do to try to get roberts over the finish line. >> it's a very troubling situation for national republicans, they never thought they would have to put time and resources into kansas, a deeply conservative state. they are sending a long time republican consultant to the state to try to kick start the campaign and ousted the campaign manager a long time confident, kicked off the campaign yesterday. a real shake upand a lot of concern and worry. >> kansas is interesting right now, the governor is sam brownback, who positioned himself as a tea party prag natic governor who could lead is facing a revot. a lot of moderate republicans are endorsing the democratic challenger and what is happening there? >> he's facing revolt, really the backlash, a generation ago it was sam brownback and republicans in kansas going up -- always a republican state but pragmatic brand of r
