I'm hearing Vitter is well within striking distance of getting 50%+1 and will not need to go to the runoff.
Washington Democrats have been pouring money into the state to spread lies about Vitter to prevent this from happening. However, everytime they launch a smear campaign Vitter's numbers go up.
People down here do not take too kindly to Washington outsiders meddling in our politics. You would think Dems would have learned their lesson from the Republicans when they poured money in against Landreau... Then again, no one ever accused Dems of being bright.
I'm in Louisiana. A few days ago, I got a phone call, posing as a poll, that was paid for by the DNC. They started out asking a couple of questions, then switched to bashing Bush, then threw in a pitch for Dem Congressional candidate Willie Mount and bashed her opponent, Dr. Charles Boustany.
