So many people on here, who I thought were decently cognizant of reality, fell for the moral heart string bullshite as a "protest" on Vitter.

What the actual frick were y'all thinking?


I don't see why the morals protest came into play so much for the race for governor 10 years after the whole scandal, when apparently voters didn't care too much about it 2 years after the scandal broke when Vitter won re-election to the senate in a landslide.

You can blame Dardenne and Angelle for that.

Those were two RINOs that were hopelessly outclassed by Vitter on conservative policy with the voting records to back that up so they had to go straight into the gutter of character assassination for 6-7 months and that made the hooker issue a bipartisan issue. If JBE was the only one bringing it up, not enough republicans would've given a shite for Vitter to lose.

It worked pretty well as Vitter couldn't get those republicans in the runoff but it worked pretty well against them too as they are now considered traitors that are persona non grata in the Louisiana GOP after they lost to Clay fricking Higgins or woking for JBE now.
