RSSLouisiana Senate Election 2010: Safe Republican Hold, Vitter (R) 57%, Melancon (D) 33%
Louisiana Senate race … bright shade of RED.
Republicans appear to have a safe hold in the Louisiana Senate election in 2010. Republ;ican incumbet David Vitter has a commanding lead over Democrat rival Charlie Melancon, 57% to 33%.
David Vitter
Incumbent Republican David Vitter has an even more commanding lead this month over his top Democratic challenger in Louisiana’s race for the U.S. Senate.
The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely voters in the state shows Vitter leading Democratic Congressman Charlie Melancon 57% to 33%. Just three percent (3%) would opt for some other candidate, while seven percent (7%) are undecided.
So much for the theory that all incumbents are in trouble in the upcoming midterm elections. Vitter certainly disproves that notion. The troubling trend for Democrats is that their incumbents are in trouble, not the GOP. Also in a continuing trend, Vitter finds himself ahead his Democrat foe among voters not affiliated with either party leading by more than three to one.

The Democrats are in huge trouble if a guy that likes hookers to make him wear diapers is that far ahead in the polls……
I guess it must #1, kinda like when Clinton was in office with interns and cigars I guess.
Please, a President in the Oval Office trumps a Senator, no go back to your coloring books.
Take it from someone who lives in La….Vitter is much, 100 times better than Melancon. Melancon has not had one meeting for his constituents, nor has he even reached out to his public. We all hope Melancon takes a beating in this. Louisiana is a very conservative state, and Melancon is a very liberal politician. This will not mix here!
Who Dat gonna say Melancon has a chance!
