Not as stupid as you are going to feel around 10pm on 10/12/19 when JBE is giving his victory because Lyin' Eddie decided to shoot inside the boat.

Don’t take it so personally you’re supporting a candidate with flaws that were pointed out.

The guy has spent millions of his own dollars on this race and you expect him to just accept coming in third as long as a "conservative" (neutral tax) candidate has a shot? I dont understand how any conservative could have watched the first debate and remain undecided

Better than supporting a candidate that is already breaking promises and he has not even gotten into a runoff yet. Just imagine what he will do once he is in office. He has no record to support him other than he broke the one promise that he has publicly made so far.

Good thing for Abraham that Louisiana is not fiscally conservative and the majority of Louisiana voters support raising the gas tax.

We conservatives need to put it away for now. I was a Rispone supporter from the get go. After his ads came out, I told myself I was now going to vote Abraham. His first debate performance was sub-par. I now await tonight's debate to help me make a decision.
I will never vote a democrat. I just do not know whose lever I am going to pull.
I do believe that Rispone was ill advised to place the ad, and more ill advised to continue running it. I think he has no shot now in northern Louisiana. He is damaged goods there.

In the two polls since Lyin' Eddie went negative JBE jumped up to 46% and the undecided vote jumped 12%. 48% of those undecided voters said they were leaning toward JBE. That poll only dealt with the primary. (0.46 + (0.12 * 0.48)) * 100% = 51.76%. That poll also had a 4.2% MOE which puts HBE within the MOE from winning in the primary. The poll released today had JBE at 47% and 8% undecided. Plus it had an MOE of 2.9% which puts him within a c***'s hair of winning in the runoff. Prior to Lyin' Eddie going negative, JBE was topping out at 48% when you added in the undecided vote that was leaning toward him.
That has more to do with the debate than the negative ad.
I was going with Abraham 100% until I saw the debate, Abraham was a bumbling buffoon. Eddie on the other hand was articulate, to the point and seemed to have a plan.
The sad part is that there is a ton of people that don't know the candidates, such as myself, util you see them in a debate. Abraham may be a good man, but he is a horrible candidate, no wonder his campaign keeps him hidden.

JBE with the most applause again. Four more years here we come.

Lyin' Eddie's debate performance explains why his support is increasing but it does not explain why JBE's support is increasing. The answer to that is Lyin' Eddie tactics are pushing undecided voters by to the Honor Code.

Anyone with a fricking stream that works?

I just posted a new link in the OP. It is working for me.
ETA: For those who missed the first question it was about a constitutional convention. Rispone supports, JBE is opposed, and Abraham is not opposed to one but prefers to try to fix the state with a conservative governor and a conservative supermajority in the legislature.
Follow-up: Rispoe still supports; JBE still opposed; Abraham still prefers to address article 7 through a constitutional amendment instead of a convention.

I got it to work on my phone. I couldn't get a stream anywhere to work on my laptop.

Much better questions and format, so far.

John Bel actually did a good job in the debate, not that I would vote for him, but he did come across more intelligent and informed compared to Ralph.
As you said, you don't live here anymore, but you call all of us idiots. You don't have a dog in this fight so what are you after???

Eddie Rispone sounds pretty cool and collected. It took him about 30 minutes last time to get used to debating an he's been on a roll ever since.

Uh oh.. Gas tax question. Let's see how Ralph Abraham answers.
