I would think that Perkins' and Terrell's votes in the primary, along with Cooksey's, would have given the Republicans a slight edge in Winn Parish. This is a competitive parish, which is remarkable considering its diehard Long background. My wife has a relative who lives in a house once owned by none other than Earl Kemp Long! There is a very impressive monument to Earl Long in Winnfield.

Like I said, things don't break along the lines you might expect around here. I saw a fair number of NRA caps at the Landrieu rally I went to, and while I couldn't read the wearer's minds, at least they weren't heckling.

Earl certainly deserves the monument. For all his faults, he was a much better man than his would-be dictator brother.
