Rather than put the State of Louisiana through four more weeks of TV ads, and a campaign that will be nothing but mud slinging, Mary Landrieu should do the honorable thing and concede to Bill Cassidy.
She can’t win. It can’t happen. No way. None. Cassidy came within a handful of votes of out-polling Landrieu.
It’s time to move on and begin the healing process for our state.
9:10 AM – Edited to add:
We can guarantee you won’t hear the first Louisiana newspaper or TV station editorialize on this issue. They all WANT a runoff. Why, you ask?
Money. Advertising dollars. They do what they do to make money. Remember that the next time some editorial writer or TV talking head tries to claim the moral high ground on some issue.

I was born and raised in New Orleans and I have one thing to say about that:
Never, never, don’t ever discount a Landrieu running on a state-wide ballot when Orleans Parish gets to vote. Just ask Woody Jenkins.
11/05/2014 at 9:24 am |
Orleans Parish will hold their ballots until they see how many they need to retrieve from the trunk of a Democrat’s car.

Let’s see, the probability of that happening is about the same as ‘Beautiful Bobby’, spending 2 consecutive weekends here in his ‘home state’ concerned about things at home. But stranger things have happened, they are already talking about the Cubs being a playoff team in 2015.

Jindal is doing and has done what he was elected to do in Baton Rouge. Bobby is not under house arrest. Get over it.

Bless you. You got a point, he’s doing what he was elected to do. Wish I had as many Frequent flier Miles.

Pot, meet kettle.
11/05/2014 at 11:38 am |
Agreed, I see Cassidy as the same as Landrieu.
11/05/2014 at 12:47 pm |
I think you had better think again. Cassidy is nothing like landrieu. I think this state will finally move up and be something,but not with Landrieu.

Speculation is the dead voters were hampered by a combination of being hung over from Halloween and the requirements for votor ID.

I don’t see any way Mary gets to 50.01% in 30 days. But stranger things have happened. She got less than 20% of the white vote statewide. Now that 20% is partisan and highly motivated, but black turnout will go down with a trailing runoff, it always does. Rural turnout will drop too, but not by nearly as much. Where will her votes come from? There aren’t enough bodies in all the cemeteries in New Orleans to replicate 10% of the electorate, even if you could get away with it. I think she’s a cooked turkey.
If I were Doc Cassidy, I do whatever I have to do to get Maness’ endorsement, I find his strongest precincts and get out there and convince them to vote for me, and I don ‘t run a single negative ad unless to respond to a direct personal attack by Landrieu. She is about to go ultra-negative. Think mud’s been thrown already? You ain’t seen nothing yet!

Mary “Obama” Landrieu is about to be done in by that good ole western character “Hop Along” Cassidy.

She should go ahead and begin the job Dems promised her to get her vote for ‘bamacare. it would be an exit with dignity and she’s already rich, and will be richer still.

The Dems already paid Mary $300 million for her vote. That was the amount Bobby asked her to get for her vote to bail him out with the feds who fined Jindal $300 million for double-billing Medicaid as Hospital Administrator under Foster. Landrieu admitted the whole thing in an interview with The Hill in this article: http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/79823-sen-landrieu-hits-back-over-louisiana-purchase.

Cassidy is a quisling establishment RINO, but at least he’s not a regressive Democrat, and that’s a big plus in his favor this cycle. The first task is to oust Ebola Mary. The second is to hold Cassidy’s feet to the conservative fire, and we’ll have a lot of help in that area from conservatives like Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, and Joni Ernst. Ebola Mary is now in the minority and can’t help Louisiana at all, so there’s absolutely no reason to reelect her! I was pulling for Maness, but we got Ebola Mary and Establishment Cassidy as our only two choices. Of the two, Establishment Cassidy is definitely the lesser of two evils over Ebola Mary!
