Let ‘em waste their money.
Louisianans can’t stand her. All the GOP candidates got like 60% of the vote between them.
That a tall bar for Mary Loser to surmount in thirty days.
All the outside money in the world can’t motivate your base to actually show up to vote....
Dems didn’t show up last night to vote for her, they won’t show up in big numbers to vote for her in a month.
Republican voters will crawl over glass to vote her out.
Shes got no chance, of winning the runoff, and any astute democratic donor won’t give more than token money to here, they know that its just good money after bad.
Was in New Orleans recently and that is true—she is despised in Louisiana. Buh bye Miss Mary.
Ask yourself this....if you were a wealthy guy and your Democratic lobbyists came knocking at the door for last-minute support for Landrieu...what are the odds?
The two Republicans together....got 800,000 votes. Mary? 618,000.
Even if Republican voters lost twenty percent of the voters between now and the election day....Mary would still need every single voter that came Tuesday....to come back again, and it would still NOT be enough to win.
It’s a foregone conclusion that Lendrieu will now lose. I just don’t see anybody contributing significant money (say another $500,000) to keep some ad flow going on and hope that people might show up on election day. I’ll go out on the limb and predict that she gets 100,000 fewer votes on the second time around.
