Governor Foster endorsed Cooksey and both of them have behaved like children since the election. Foster said Thursday on his call-in radio show that he didn't like it when the RNSC did not consult with him before selecting a candidate and he didn't think they should have given all the money to one candidate. He said he thought they should have "spread" it around. (Ahem) He said he didn't like the negative ads they ran against Landrieu.... They ran ads about Landrieu's record and they compared her voting record with Hillarys (hee hee). The calls to him that hour were blistering, roughly 90% disagreed and chastised him severly. Governor Foster was a democrat until he decided to run for governor 8 years ago.
If either of these two cry babies cared about doing what is best for the state and the country they would be doing everything they could to defeat Landrieu. Why in God's name would they want to return a tax and spend democrat to Washington and to a Republican majority senate ?
Something I said about a week ago and will repeat again is that too many Republicans have staked their entire support of Mrs. Terrell on claiming that she is most likely to win. The average swing voter doesn't care whether someone is the Republican "most likely to win." Telling the average swing voter or even conservative grass roots voter that Mrs. Terrell is "most likely to win" only makes us sound like the kind of idiots who are too enthralled with the horse race aspects of politics and don't care about what a particular candidate will do in office. Stirring this pot again and again will only remind the Perkins and Cooksey supporters of their resentment against the outsiders who chose to give the Terrell campaign a massive infusion of cash.
Mrs. Terrell is running a solidly conservative campaign. She has a good record in public office and is a likeable person. The best answers to anyone's negativity about her candidacy is to stick to the many good things that she has to offer.
