Both wins are so unfortunate. Dollar Bill is headed for the federal pen. Maybe he and EWE can shakes hands as EWE leaves on his pardon and Dollar Bill gets his old bunk. As for Mary, she is just another politician who is full of empty promises. While in general, it is good for the state to re-elect an experienced incumbent, a lying, self-serving liberal is not good for the state. Well, maybe lying is overstated. She doesn't hold up to her promises to her constituents. Growing up in NO, I have every right to my personal bias against the Landrieu clan. The entire state would be better off if they left.
I bet she carried the dead people vote by a landslide. Since alot of her live voters dont actually live in Louisiana any more. I dont think there has been a democrat registered voter die in New Orleans in 50 years. They are just sleeping temporarily between elections and rise from the grave to vote for the Democratic candidates. Just like all those police officers that didnt exist but had been receiving paychecks for years before Katrina.
Y'all may know this, but..... Jefferson has only won the Democratic nomination for 2nd Congr. District. He will run in the General election on 12/6/08 against Cao (Republican), Kahn (Libertarian), and Rahim (Green) for the actual seat in Congress. http://www400.sos.louisiana.gov/cgibin/?rqstyp=CNDMD&rqsdta=120608&ID=14519063 "Cold Cash" Bill has one more election to win.
