I still think Tarver will "vote" for Landrieu Dec. 7 despite his "protests" to the contrary.

This is beyond the pale that a Democrat would not support a fellow Democrat. And especially when she is having a run-off as important as the Senate from Louisiana. May wonders never cease!

A group of Shreveport black ministers, neighborhood activists and political aspirants rebuk[ed] Tarver and remind[ed] voters they shouldn't vote for someone just because a prominent person tells them they should.

What hilarious hypocrisy. These ministers and activists have been telling people how to vote for years. They're just upset because Tarver is not telling people to vote for the "right" candidate. Do you think these folks would have any problem with Tarver if he was telling people to vote for Landrieu?

It's about time the citizens of Shreveport don't let one person dictate to them how to vote," said Joe Wells, a neighborhood activist from the Stoner Hill area.

Barbara Norton, a Mooretown activist and a recent candidate for the Shreveport City Council, echoed that. "As Democrats, we must continue to support Democrats," she said.

Ok....one person shouldn't dictate to others how to vote, BUT you MUST vote for the democrat!

Now would be a good time for the black politicans to hammer the Democratic party for some 'favors". Enough of the back pats and empty promises. It's time to ask WIFM.

Landrieu ..."consistently (voting) with Republican interest over the last six years."

I can't help but wonder if this rhetoric isn't really intended for white moderates. "See, Landrieu really is shoulder to shoulder with the President"
