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!
