We're gearing up to defeat brown roots, but we need a viable candidate. Help!

Cooksey really did mess that up didn't he? I don't know much about S. Terrell. Is she up to it?

I still love Vitter, but he said several months ago his wife would kill him.

I'm afraid that Cooksey is dead meat. He has a very conservative voting record, so it is really unfortunate that he put his "foot in his mouth." Susie Terrell is not as conservative as Cooksey. She did win a statewide office, Elections Commissioner (which she pledged to have abolished). She does not have as much experience as Cooksey. Terrell was on the New Orleans City Council. (I moved back to Louisiana four years ago, so am not really familiar with the long term aspects of her political career.) She is a woman, so could compete with "not so proud Mary" for the women's vote. (Unfortunately, there are Republican women whom I know who will often vote for a democrat woman over a Republican man. How sad!!)

I love Vitter also, but I suspect he won't contemplate any other office until he has a few more terms under his belt. Tauzin would be good, but he won't even consider it. If Suzie Terrell runs, I will get behind her 100%. She does have some pluses, primarily that she's a Republican, and she says she's a conservative. Also and most importantly, she's not Mary Landrieu!

Of course, the Sept. 11th atrocity put a damper on the travel plans of many people.

7,000 lives within one hour. I just can't get over this.

But looks like your event was a hit. Your wall of pictures must have been interesting - dating back to 98. Did I see a new freeper, Hiker1? Does he post? Is your brother JR? Is he a freeper? Your house looks lovely and I know you made everyone feel at home.

Looking forward to the cruise, less than two weeks and counting.

P.S. Orlando Sanchez is running for Mayor. Bet the fraud machinery will be out, big time.

Grace, my brother JR is a lurker. Hiker1 is a new FReeper.

By the way, who is going to run for Phil Gramm's senate seat? Someone good, I hope. I was disappointed when Gramm announced his retirement. We MUST keep the senate seat in Republican hands.

We certainly want to defeat "brown roots," Unproud Mary Landrieu in the Louisiana senate race next year. As you can see if you read some of the responses, we are unsure as to which Republican to support. I am afraid that liberal Mary Landrieu is going to be hard to beat, this even though you remember how she stole the election in '96. We both watched the Senate hearings where Woody Jenkins presented conclusive evidence of voter fraud, and to no avail. The Senate approved Landrieu.

Hey, bigeasy, we missed you. Too bad you had to fly to DC while we were partying. What a bummer. You really missed a lot of fun. Patriot1 and I are still savoring every moment of the event, and reliving the great time we had. Hope you have a safe trip home.

Blam, I was really disappointed that you didn't stay over at my house on Sunday night with my husband and me. I had hoped to take you out to breakfast on Monday morning. The best deal in town is a terrific breakfast buffet at the Treasure Chest with custom omelets and every breakfast item that you can think of. All this and a beautiful view of Lake Pontchartrain! Since you didn't stay, my husband didn't take me out for breakfast - not that I needed to eat any more after all the food that we all consumed on Sunday.

Sorry, I just got 'antsy' to get back to these woods of mine. Plus, I think the older I get, the more of a hermit I become. I really do appreciate the offer and he fine hospitality though.

LOL, you caught me. I took a nap between about 8:30-10:30. I'm wide awake again.

Why doesn't Woody Jenkins run again?

It's very confusing here in Texas. All I know is that AG John Cornyn just announced that he's running. On the Democrat side, Austin mayor Kurt Watson may run. The politicians are playing musical chairs.

Woody Jenkins has baggage. It is my understanding (since I was not living in Louisiana in 1996 when Landrieu stole the election) that Woody owed his berth in the runoff to the peculiarity of the open primary in Louisiana. In order to assure that two democrats don't make the runoff, the Republicans try to settle on one Republican who seems to have the best chance. There were problems with Woody, but Republicans and conservatives decided to rally around him in the open primary. Of course, he actually won, but voter fraud delivered the election to "brown roots."

As far as I know, no one even suggests Woody as a candidate. At this time, I am sort of hoping that Susie Terrell will run even though I have already contributed to Cooksey's campaign. I prefer Cooksey's politics, but I think that the negative publicity surrounding his remark has ruined electability.

Thanks for thinking about me. I regretted not being there. I find it interesting that Reagan National is opening on Thursday. These liberals can really make things inconvenient.

The pics look great. It sounds like everyone had a great time.

We did miss you, particularly since the party idea was yours. Oh well, there's always next time. You did have a good excuse.
