LA sheriffs are elected at the same time as the governor, not at the time of U.S. Senate or U.S. House elections. But LA people do like their Democrat sheriffs; on that point, you are right.

I could be wrong, but I thought there were too many that wrote off Landrieu as being finished, and then the ugly reality hit us when she pulled out by four points. Still, it's a weak showing in what used to be a rock solid Democratic state, and Terrell wasn't exactly a household name.

Vitter I think will get much better turnout, especially in Jefferson Parish, and if Jindal wins then things will look even better.

I don't think Rodney Alexander will run because he just won election and he knows his seat will probably go back to Republican if he leaves. I would rather not have another Democrat get in and force a runoff, because then if it's Vitter v John, it'll be after the presidential election and the coattails will be gone.

You're right, I stand corrected.
