This really blows my mind, Louisiana voted for Trump and he won by 20%.

What gives? Is Edwards that good at fooling everybody?

Im a life long Mississippian and said this about 15 years ago due to the conservative values of Mississippians that there would never be another Democratic governor in Mississippi and I feel this will hold true.

People are stupid. Vitter was caught with a hooker years ago and many wouldn't vote for him because of it.

The republican candidate was the Hillary of Louisiana, and Edwards ran as a right leaning democrat.

The Democratic Party is very diverse on issues. Southern Dems are not NE Dems. That issue alone is why the party as a whole in fights so much. Dem leaders talk about it all the time.

We had some idiots who bought hook, line, and sinker that Edwards was a Boy Scout and because Vitter cheated on his wife he didn't deserve to be reelected. In the end the Edwards said thanks for the victory and you residents deserve to be taxed to high hell for electing me.

Jay Dardenne and Scott Angelle ran negative ads against Vitter. Say what you want about him or not, without those two tainting the water he would have won easily. JBE presented himself as some conservative democrat while showing his "Honor Code" from Westpoint. He was nothing more than a left wing hack trial lawyer and surrounded himself with the same lefty hacks who have less scruples than Vitter.

Basically a bunch of people in Louisiana were stupid and fell for democrat spin and voted against Vitter. Stupidity of the highest order.

Also Dardenne and Angelle are democrats.

1999 and Look at the elections since then how far big Barbour and Bryant won by.

Heck the Democratic primary winner last year was a truck driver Bryant received nearly 70% of the vote

Too many dumbasses afraid Vitter was going to break into their house and start banging hookers on their coffee table.

Vitter has all the personality of Al Gore after taking some ambien. Thats what it really came down to. The hooker stuff reared its head and he couldnt change the issue.
