Here in Louisiana, pro-Cassidy groups, and Cassidy himself, are WISELY running this campaign as if he were 2 points behind. They send out superb, quality mailers several times a week, most of which show Landrieu and 0sama together, and point out specifics of her rubber-stamp support for him. They also run GREAT radio commercials. One I partially heard today said that “after 6 years of inaction, Mary finally tried to get the Keystone Pipeline through, but not for her constituents, only for her own career. Even then, all she could do was throw a Fail Mary!” It was much more, and much better, than what I’m posting here, and had me laughing out loud.
Early voting numbers for Republicans are up significantly compared to the primary, which is very encouraging.
One can never underestimate the dead voters in New Orleans, and the Rats’ dirty tricks. However, this time our side is playing it smart, and has numbers which reflect the trend. I’m cautiously optimistic that Landrieu is finally toast.
Landrieu's internal polling must be truly grim if she's resorting to absurd statements like this. On the Walton and Johnson radio show this morning, they summed it up pretty well:
"Mary knows that she's about to be cut off from the bacon-wrapped shrimp".
