Just voted. I didn't have to wait in a line, walked in and walked out. HOWEVER, there was a steady stream of people, just enough to not have to wait in line.

I'm crossing my fingers and plan on spending the evening on the recliner watching returns.

FYI- Channel 4 (new orleans CBS affiliate) had a story from CNN about which attack adds were more misleading. Basically they blasted Landrieu for the deceptive ads about the sugar farmers, they went on to say Terrell's ads about Landrieu were acurate. The only thing they got Terrell on was calling Landrieu the "Most liberal Senator in state history" apparently that distinction belongs to Huey Long, but who the hell can remember that.

Yes, and I've noticed that in some of the more recent ads, the phrase has been changed to say "the most liberal senator in recent state history."

You could make a good case that Landrieu is the most liberal Senator ever in Louisiana. Huey Long was an "economic populist" who supported all kinds of schemes to tax the "rich" and subsidize the poor (while skimming off a large portion of the money for himself and his cronies). Landrieu is likewise a tax-and-spend liberal, but in addition she supports tax funded abortion-on-demand and gay domestic partnership laws. She supports gun control and opposed protecting the Boy Scouts from being kicked out of the public schools. Something tells me the old Kingfish Huey Long wouldn't have been too keen on those policies.

Here's hoping for a big Terrell win tonight! By the way, on the Beltway Boys tonight, Fred Barnes said Landrieu will have a hard time reaching the black turnout levels she needs to win.

Everyone knows WWL-TV is nothing than a liberal propaganda outlet.
