Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.), who barely squeaked past his Democratic challenger in Tuesday’s primary, said there was nothing wrong with Sen. Thad Cochran’s (R-Miss.) strategy of getting Democratic-leaning African-Americans out to vote in the GOP primary.
“Of course not. My God, I think that’s what it’s all about,” Rangel told CNN. “Of course, this is unusual for states to allow people to join in their primaries regardless of their registration. But in the case of Mississippi when clearly they look at the Tea Party candidate and looked at Thad Cochran, they made a determination as to which would be better between the two for Mississippi and, my God, it just seems to me it makes a lot of sense in view of the fact that the Tea Party is so unpredictable and actually don’t care too much about the Republican Party or the country as we can see as to what happened with Eric Cantor.”
