In November, maybe. During a December runoff? No chance.

I know it was summer and Texas, but recall the runoff between Ted Cruz and David Dewhurst? Dewhurst had a substantial vote margin in the general, but shy of that needed to win. Cruz still beat him handily in the runoff. Establishment REPUBLICANS didn’t show up. You think RATS are going to show up en masse in this mess of a race?

Probably going to take that money and hire every private investigator from Mobile to Austin to follow him around, record him 24/7 and get a full biography from everyone who ever knew him (in all senses of the word). Because the only way they’re beating him is with a scandal.

As we speak Landrieu and her team are up to no good, what trickery will they come up with to try and win this race? A planted story in a out of country paper?

Will be many dirty tricks, lets just hope nothing takes. Probably private investigators working around the clock looking for anything and everything.

I read somewhere today that the dems are still trying to pay off the 2012 debt and spent way too much in the midterm loss. So, they’re pulling the plug on the race baiting, fear mongering liberal Landrieu.

I have seen ads for Cassidy by the GOP Senate Committee and by Cassidy.

I have seen NO ADS by the Landrieu in the Acadiana TV Market (Southwest Louisiana -- primary Lafayette).

Local news is being sympathetic to Landrieu.

I would like Rob Maness to endorse Cassidy, and that would put the nail in the coffin.

Mind you, I do not care for how the GOP-e has treated the Tea Party/Tea Party Express this year, but I think making sure Landrieu is toast.

Additionally, the DNC may be in financial trouble and has nothing to show for their huge investment this year.

Senate RNC Ads are targetting Obama in their ads.

Landrieu is labeled as Obama's accomplice in the ads.

Energy, 2nd Amendment, Jobs are all targeted in this ad.

Get Obama down into NO and she should break 20%. The brothers love him.

It was reported that the Dims spent around 24 million in CO to defeat Cory Gardner. Your stimulus $ at work. Probably the same in all their other losing candidates. Will they file for bankruptcy? They’re saving their money for another loser in 2016’ Hilbill

DemocRATS cancel ads to HELP Landrieu?

There could only be one of two reasons. (1) She's sitting pretty and doesn't need the money or (2) She's circling the drain and any further ad expenditures would be wasted.

Which do you think it is?

even if it means taking a day off without pay to travel all the way back home to vote for a less-evil RINO to knock her off.

Good point. Seems all that we know about the guy is that he says that he is not Obama. Watch him take a left turn in the general election. I am afraid we may have a Thad Cochran clone on our hands.

She’s circling the drain. Count on it.

For Mary Landrieu to still be running shows an incredible level of hubris. Even Charlie tan-in-a-can down in Florida had enough sense to concede when, I assume, he got word that the Dem heavyweights wouldn’t support him.
