How it's done in Mississippi

The man in the video below, a registered Democrat, Rev. Stevie Fielder, is an associate pastor at a black church in Mississippi. He alleges in a paid interview with Charles Johnson that he was promised $16,000 to distribute envelopes with $15 in them to hundreds of black Mississippi residents to vote against the Tea Party candidate in the recent primary election, which was won by establishment candidate Thad Cochran. Fielder says thousands of blacks received the envelopes all around the state, and that he was not the only one distributing the cash. He was not paid the $16,000, so now he realizes he's been had, and gave the interview to Johnson. Johnson's organization, GotNews.com has the full story here, including text messages sent to Fielder from Cochran staff members, who later asked him to delete the texts, which he did not do. GotNews.com does not say how much it paid Fielder for the story. The Cochran staff member, a black man named Saleem, sold Fielder on the idea that McDaniel was a racist.

Here is the You Tube posting of GotNews.com's interview with Fielder.


Update: Breitbart reports that John McCain

described Cochran's "get-out-the-vote campaign" as "excellent," then talked about how he will face similar circumstances in Arizona and needs to work equally as hard if he runs again. "The key is you'd better pay attention, you'd better work hard, you'd better organize." He added, "And you'd better understand that there's a strong anti-Washington/anti-incumbency sentiment out there, which is justified and you've got your work cut out for you."
