BTW, what exactly is your interest in opposing and badmouthing the senator in Louisiana? Your home page indicates Indiana, which hasn't produced a conservative member of the US senate in quite some time.
I realize that Vitter is good on the issues, but he’s still a joke. If you’re from Louisiana, than you know why. And my interest is in promoting credible Republican candiadtes (which Jay Dardenne definitely is if he runs).

Yes us Yankees should just shut the **** up about Southern politics right!!!!?? Blah. Let me tell you something, the US Senate affects us all. And us political junkies like to discuss and analyze all the races in every state as is our perfect right. Indiana Freepers are no more responsible for Bayh and Lugar than you are for Edwin Edwards or I (Chicagoan) am for Obama, I voted for the black guy (Keyes) in 2004 and the liberal (McCain) in 2008.
My only concern is Vitter (excellent voting record yes indeed) might be vulnerable to a fake conservative rat. No one from LA thinks that is likely so I’m very glad. Usually only rats get away with stuff.
Obviously a primary battle would create a vulnerability as well. The respectable thing would be for Vitter not to run again but since he is I guess an unprimaried Vitter is the best bet.
I know little of Dardenne if he is a RINO obviously that’s a non-starer anyway (do you have details on his RINOism ABB?)
Clintonfatigued is concerned with the party’s image, how can we be the party of reform when we have Senators who frequent whorehouses? Particularly in Louisiana it would be helpful to the clean party compared to the super-corrupt democrats.
I don’t care myself what Vitter enjoys sexually but I’m certain that if some rat Senator say oh Mark Pryor was involved in the same scandal as Vitter that freepers would universally call for his resignation.
Hopefully your state’s libertarian attitude toward personal behavior and increasing Republican trend will prevail.
