Looks like the only risk here is becoming over confident.
Unfortunately, she still has time to circulate racist flyers or whatever else dirty trick the Dems resort to these days.
643, that’s a bit of a small sample. I like Cassidy being 21% ahead. He still should act as if he were behind and make sure to bring it home!
I wish these morons would quit sending me begging/panic donation requests, they have failed me and the country and I see no let up.
Fat lady is clearing her throat.
Why doesn’t she go.on offense? How about asking where was Bilk during Hurricane Katrina??? Why not try that???
So, how much $’s in electoral resources is Landfill costing LA Taxpayers by not bowing out of a definite loss?
Graveyard residents weren’t sampled in this poll, just sayin’.
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.
There it is again. That “magical” 37, 38, 39% clueless rat voter support.
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.
OUCHIE!!!
She’s gator bait.
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.

I wonder if the voters can be persuaded to give him a margin of victory >20% ...
Give Miss Piggy a real thumping ...
Time to stop dumping money on this race and start campaigning for 2016.
Those percentages are in line with the drubbing just north of Louisiana in Arkansas.
Cotton (R) won by 57% over Pryor (D-Incumbent) 39%.
Most of the polls leading up to the election showed them almost even. A few times, they showed Cotton up by about 7%, then near even.
The week before the election, the University of Arkansas released results of a poll that showed Cotton ahead by 14%. Few commentators took that poll seriously. Ironically, it was closer to the final result than the other polls.
LA please make it a 30 point margin!
You are well on your way.
There is a $1000 a plate concert to benefit Mary Landrieu on December 1, 2014

Stevie Wonder to headline fundraiser for Mary Landrieu in New Orleans
It will also benefit the Louisiana Democratic Party (which will benefit Mitch Landrieu, Mayor of New Orleans).
I wouldn’t worry too much, there is simply TOO MUCH ground to cover for Baby Fat. If 5 to 10 points, then yes, worry. But with these numbers and Obama about to throw the Constitution on the Ash Heap of History (a little Karl Marx lingo), people WILL turn out and they WILL NOT turn out to support her.
I wonder if she secretly regret voting for Obama care now.
