I told you idiots to stop it as it was going to help JBE get reelected and I ended up being correct.



And I hope you feel good about it. Abraham supporters who voted for JBE or stayed at home are 100% the reason for his re-election.

I voted for Rispone, but I would have had no problems voting for Abraham in the general. But, I'm an adult, after all (unlike a lot of butt-hurt Abraham supporters).

I don't.

I was absolutely hoping and wishing that I was wrong.

Full disclosure here, I voted for Rispone in the runoff and prayed that Trump rallies were enough to push him over the top and that Abraham voters came to their senses.

But even then, I warned a few days before the runoff that Rispone was blowing it as the biggest warning sign of trouble was that he did not have Abraham stumping for him on the campaign trail outside of the Trump rallies.

And I'm saying that as someone who originally supported Rispone in the first place before the first round but he lost my support when he shite in his own hat and went negative against Abraham. Not because I was offended personally but the electoral consequences it would pose.

Voters are fickle creatures and you just cannot do anything to alienate them when you need them later for another round of voting and that's a hard lesson Rispone learned too late much to our detriment.

If you're an awkward and unknown first time candidate that has never been a political candidate and did not run a good campaign and did not market yourself well all year long like Rispone did, voters just simply don't have the patience to tolerate mistakes from you, especially against a formidable incumbent.

And they still had cold hard votes that Rispone needed and he made no worthwhile effort to get them.

He thought Trump rallies in the sticks were enough to push him over the top while ignoring big arse warning signs in St. Tammany and Jefferson Parish.
