Edwards in Good Shape

Edwards must be feeling pretty good about his chances at becoming the first Democrat governor in Louisiana to serve two consecutive terms since Edwin Edwards did it from 1972-1980. At least he should in light of the massive turnout among black voters during early voting. When early voting came to a close this past weekend, some 31 percent of the voters were black. That’s slightly more than Edwards needs to secure a second term, assuming black voters account for no less than 29 percent of the electorate on election day and as long as Edwards can pull roughly 30 percent of the white vote. The hyper turnout in the black community during early voting means Republicans need to reach 43 percent of the electorate on election day. That’s not impossible, but it’s a huge hill to climb.

Stopped reading right there. Anyone who thinks that either candidate or anyone around them, in this tied election, should be or is even possibly "feeling good about their chances" right now, has nothing to say worth listening to.

Racist

That’s racist, and you should feel bad. Why do all blacks have to be on the plantation serving their Democratic masters? Jeez....

It will be tough on white people, tax payers of all races and business owners of all races for another 4 years if JBE pulls it out.
If the black vote is 38% of the total and he gets it all and he wins with 50.1% that means less than 12% of his voters where white.
Why do those 12% hate the rest of us so?

If only people that paid a net federal income tax voted, Republicans would win with 85+% haha. Couldn’t imagine trying to convince myself why being last in the country in jobs is a good thing. Then again, I don’t have to tout, in my screen name, that I graduated college.

That is making some assumptions that all black people vote democrat.

That’s why Edwards is begging Obama for more money and is making the rounds playing Santa with our tax dollars.

This election is strictly a get out the vote election and the democrats have a large advantage there. They have "community organizers", they have "drivers", they have BBQ and buses, and they have money on the streets on election day. Republicans have only the fact that they tend to vote in greater numbers, but no real delivery system to speak of. I would be confident if I was Edwards too. All Rispone can hope for is a home run from Trump that will voluntarily get his voters out.

I personally don't believe for one damn second that Edwards is as close as "they" say..... If it turns out that he is around 49% then you can stick a fork in the theory that Louisiana is red state. I have come to despise the religious right in Louisiana
