McDaniel, who is being supported in the Republican primary by the Club for Growth, FreedomWorks, the Madison Project and the Senate Conservatives Fund, announced Wednesday that his campaign has raised $500,000 since he declared his candidacy 10 weeks ago.

"All across Mississippi and all across the nation, we're seeing tremendous enthusiasm and excitement, as grassroots conservative activists are uniting behind our campaign," McDaniel said in a statement. "Conservatives are clamoring for new leaders in Washington who will fight to repeal Obamacare, rein in federal spending, and protect our traditional values. With such a groundswell of enthusiasm, I am confident we will succeed on June 3rd."

Supporters of McDaniel attacked Cochran for not being conservative enough, after the senator voted for the bipartisan budget deal that reopened the government and raised the debt ceiling in October. Cochran is the GOP's second-most senior member in the Senate.

McDaniel, a former radio host, has a history of making controversial comments about Islam, homosexuality and hip-hop's impact on gun violence

1. How's that GOP war going for GOP?

2. Cochran is pretty bad but McDaniel would be much worse

I doubt a Democrat could get elected if McDaniel gets the nomination though

3. But then they'll end up with another loon in the Senate. And it will debase the GOP even more.

4. will it though?

when the RNC has someone like Mike Huckabee speaking at their winter meeting, they've pretty much hit the bottom of the barrel
