Well, the good news for her is that she only has to move her stuff a few blocks to her REAL home (her mansion in the District of Columbia).

Gravis Marketing-Human Events Poll Has Cassidy Burying Landrieu By 21
by MacAoidh
November 17

http://thehayride.com/2014/11/gravis-marketing-human-events-poll-has-cassidy-burying-landrieu-by-21/

Gravis Marketing is a Republican polling firm, so when it releases a poll with a big number in favor of Bill Cassidy over Mary Landrieu you can imagine Landrieu’s camp will discount that number.

Still, when it’s Cassidy 59, Landrieu 38 and three percent undecided by all appearances we’re looking at a blowout two weeks from Saturday.

The poll was of 643 likely voters from Wednesday to Friday of last week, and the sample looks relatively typical of most polling samples we’ve seen – if a little on the Cassidy-friendly side.

Respondents were asked with what party they identify, and 44 percent said Democrat and 36 percent Republican. That might be more of a Democrat party ID than some of the others we’ve seen, but the white-to-black ratio of the sample was 69-25; that’s a bit whiter electorate than we saw in the November primary. It’s not out of the question we could see the December electorate show a 25 percent black share, but that’s probably low.

Other interesting questions in the poll: Barack Obama’s approval rating is underwater at 33-61, which fits with other polling we’ve seen, and it looks like David Vitter is the 800-pound gorilla in Louisiana politics. Vitter bombs Mitch Landrieu 54-36 in a head-to-head in the 2015 governor’s race and beats Jay Dardenne handily, 43-29, in a Republican-vs-Republican head to head contest.

But the big number is that 21-point lead for Cassidy. Coming on last week’s Magellan poll showing a 16-point lead, it’s beginning to look like this race is all over but the shouting. Of course, we know there will be plenty of that.

Since we're talking about Miss Piggy... add "squealing."

There it is again. That “magical” 37, 38, 39% clueless rat voter support.

I have learned from experience never to get over confident.

Look what happened to Eric Cantor.

Look what almost happened to Warner in VA.

Anything can happen in politics.

Over confidence is one of the biggest mistakes one can make in politics.

That trick has been borrowed by the GOPe....don't forget what Cochran's people (Haley Barbour) did in MS, against McDaniel....

No complacency here.
It wouldn’t matter if she was all the way down to 2% in the polls.
A bunch of us over here in south Texas are heading home to vote and it ain’t gonna be for Ms Piggy.....
IF Mary dressed in drag, she’d look just like president pee wee.

I wish I had a house in DC. Not sure I could handle the place after I had visited all the sites of interest museum- and gubamental-related.. Tidal basin shrinkage happens as gridlock continues and the war on the Republic by its own mumbles on..

A massive black turnout is Landrieu's only hope. So it's a sure bet that racially inflammatory appeals will be going out.

We can probably look forward to something like a photoshop of a laughing Cassidy in a Ferguson PD uniform machine-gunning black toddlers. (or would that be too subtle?)

Won’t work. What turns out the black vote in Louisiana is the one thing Landrieu has little of: money.

Mitch Landrieu is trailing Vitter by 14% in a heads up for the 2016 Governor race
in this same poll. That will change as that race gets closer but the Landrieu
name may become more tainted by then.

Correction... That should be 18% over Mitch Landrieu.
The 14% is over Vitter over Dardenne.

Over confidence is one of the biggest mistakes one can make in politics.

From what I've been reading, overconfidence doesn't seem to be an issue here. The RNC and other organizations are pouring a lot of resources into this runoff, with millions in ad buys and a major statewide GOTV effort. They're going to grind into this one all the way through 6 Dec.
