Bevin in KY was behind by 5 before the election and ended up winning by 9.

It was either manipulation or those old-fashioned land-line dominant polls are simply out-dated and useless.

Turnout was 5% higher than expected and apparently mostly Republicans in the higher than expected turnout. Hence, victory for Bevin. The same thing can happen in Louisiana - “unlikely” voters votes count just as much as likely voters if they ultimately decide to show up. If 5% more of the voters show up than is projected and those are mostly Republican voters, Vitter wins. Therefore, turnout, turnout, turnout, turnout!

Vitter endorsed Thad Johnson in the GOP Mississippi atrocity.

Another case in point; last year, Ed Gillespie trailed Mark Warner by anywhere from 12-25% throughout most of the race for VA Senate and Gillespie lost by less than 1%. Turnout... turnout... turnout.

“Vitter endorsed Thad Johnson in the GOP Mississippi atrocity.”

Everyone gets it wrong at some stage. But if you look at Vitter’s record, he’s definitely one of the most conservative members of the Senate. Conservatives need to get out the vote for him on Saturday.

Most LA people are not able to connect the dots between the Syrian terrorists and a campaign for governor here.

One cannot compare KY and LA, but Zachary Taylor lived in both states and is buried near Louisville, I believe.

Thus far, former Democrat Scott Angelle is silent, but his people are raising money for Edwards.

I just find it hard to believe that Vitter is rallying much above 45 percent if that. I hope he is rallying though.
