The sad thing is, only Jeff Sessions, Vitter and Tim Scott are definitely more conservative than Cassidy amongst the southerners.
Cassidy is getting to vote on more conservative amendments than just throwing out a bunch of no votes on Harry Reid’s agenda.
I hope Maness wins but Cassidy would actually be a small net improvement.

I used to feel the same way but I could NEVER vote for Mitch McConnell who has told Conservatives and Tea Partiers he will “crush” them. He is a despicable hypocrite. Let’s see how well he does against Grimes on Nov. 4 when about 100,000 Kentucky Conservatives stay home or skip the Senate race on the ballot because they can’t vote for a man who is their vowed enemy. McConnell is like a thug husband who beats his wife on a regular basis but tells her that he is sorry when he wants sex.

Manness doesn’t have an inexperience problem so much as a carpetbagger problem. He’s a lifelong Pentagon insider who only moved to Louisiana about three years ago when he got a cushy executive position with Entergy, the big power company that most people hate. And he still owns a big (subsidized) farm up in Indiana somewhere. The “clueless” perception comes from some things he’s said that seem to put “teapartyism” above local concerns, which doesn’t really help with the carpetbagger image.
There was another potential candidate, Paul Hollis, a state senator and lifelong Louisianan that had been running television ads earlier this year, but he “pulled out of the race” earlier this summer before qualifying even started. So that leaves Manness as the only “outsider” alternative, except for maybe a Libertarian candidate who’s kind of an idiot.

3 points:
1. He's been there for 3 years, why the need to label him a Carpet Bagger?
2. If you are going to make accusations ("The clueless perception comes from some things hes said that seem to put teapartyism above local concerns"), you need to back them up with proof. 3. Not sure how you are going to support the idea of putting "Tea-partyism" above local concerns.

1. There’s no “need to label” anything. It is what it is. A Senate term is six years. Do the math. Voters do.
2. Not an accusation, just an explanation offered to those reading this who might be ignorant as to what is actually happening on the ground.
3. E.g., flood insurance comes immediately to mind.

You still provided no proof. And as such, it is merely an accusation, an unproven opinion with no weight until the statement is backed up with proof.
