I’ll bet the convenience store robberies in Houston took a big jump with their new residents from NO’s 9th Ward.
They won’t vote for Sheila during her next run unless they get a State approved ID. ;^)
Or they go to lobbying firms, waiting for the political winds to change to return to staff status. But you are correct; it’s all a game of musical chairs where chairs are added but never taken away.
“I’ll bet the convenience store robberies in Houston took a big jump with their new residents from NO’s 9th Ward.”
Absolutely true. The crime statistics sky-rocketed when the New Orleans ‘tribe’ moved here.
In addition, the New Orleans ‘tribe’ thought that they were ‘special’ and tried to ‘horn-in’ on the Houston ‘tribe’ and take over. There was a showdown at one of the high schools and the New Orleans ‘tribe’ was put promptly in their place.
Unfortunately, most of them thought that Houston is heaven compared to what they had in New Orleans so that they stayed here. The crime rate is still high compared to what it was before Katrina.
The strange part is that I am a native New Orleanian from the 9th ward and moved to Houston in 1970 because I ‘looked into the future’. I was so very happy to get out of there! I now have to cry for both cities.
The dead vote in New Orleans was responsible for her first win. They wait until they see how many votes they need, then the dead come alive and put her over the top.
The basic problem for ML: Outside of her family I don’t think she will get any white votes.
If there is one African-American that is voting for Mary Landrieu in Louisiana......they must be either drunk, high on reefer and just simply insane!!! Obama/Landrieu/ the Democrat Party has really done a number on the Black folks IN LA.....and the dummies are too stupid to see it. Man....that CBC, nutcase, Congressman Al Green is not playing with a full deck!!!
Black Americans have no idea how bad they have screwed themselves across the board. Yep....keep following Obama/Holder/Sharpton/the CBC/The NAACP & the Democrat party and then take your & their train to nowhere.....Obama;s Slave Plantation......while they all get rich on your self-inflicted misery.
Yes.....folks sometimes the truth hurts....but, the truth is always the truth!!!! Look in the mirror and your problem will be seen in the image you see coming back at you!!! Badly adrift at sea....without a paddle!!! SAD....you all are aliens in your country, caused by your own hand and incompetent or criminal leaders and clergymen!!!
One wonders how long it will take for the Progressives to get the fraud machine adequately greased up and running.
IMHO
You’re mixing up Natalie Maines and Porky Landrieu. Maines is the singing fat lady; Landrieu is the senator.
“Party strategists also fault her campaign for disregarding advice from Washington and spending virtually all of its war chest on the November election, in hopes of avoiding a runoff.”
Given the precarious nature of her re-election chances, I don’t think this was the worst strategy for her. I think that she knew (along with her local campaign staff) that if she didn’t win out-right in the primary, that she’d be dead meat in the run-off.
Of course, she was counting on a lot of outside money coming in after the primary. But once the big givers and PAC’s saw the results, they saw her as Dead Woman Walking.
But let’s say for the sake of argument that she still held money in reserve for the run-off. I don;t think it’ll change the final outcome this Saturday.
A 24 point margin would be priceless. I’m not expecting it, but who knows what’ll happen?
33% for a major party candidate is insane, but even in Texas the statewide Democrats were generally stuck under 40%
110% won’t be enough this time
In Louisiana, reliable Democrat voters have been trained for generations to vote only when paid. “Vote-hauling,” “canvassing,” “walking around money,” are but some of the euphemisms for the practice.
Another tried and true practice is plumping up the offering plate in the black churches.
But when the money ain’t there, then the votes evaporate. And Mary’s campaign is flat-ass broke.
That is what is going on.
abb says 60-40 Mary is going down.
That’s Blanche Lincoln territory...
They say “It ain’t over ‘til the Fat Lady sings.”
So I’m waiting for Porky Landrieu to sing.
Mary is truly power-mad, makes her father and brother seem almost meek by comparison.
