LAUREL, Miss. _ Down in the polls, short on cash and running out of time, Republican conservative firebrand Chris McDaniel says he's far from cooked in his bid to win a U.S. Senate seat from Mississippi that he believes was stolen from him four years ago.
But polls say otherwise.
"When I first ran four years ago, what did the establishment say? 'Not a chance, he may get 15 percent of the vote, his political career is over.' Didn't happen," McDaniel said. "We were one of the first 'Drain the Swamp' candidates. We're going to be fine."
