The sense that I have had for weeks is now manifest in public: Landrieu cannot win this race. As one pollster says , there is no reason to think that anyone who didnt vote for her in November will vote for her this Saturday. This means she cant get more than 46% of the vote. That sounds about right. You can also smell the defeat by reading this from Roll Call . Even Donna Brazile cant put a good spin on it. The Demos in Louisiana are trying to win a war by placing not-so-many conventional troops on the ground, while the GOP is using the biggest guns they have from the air, and have amassed a huge number of ground troops. This defeat will be demoralizing to the already disorganized and discombobulated national (sic) Democratic Party. And their spinmeisters better take a month long break because there will be nothing for them to say (accept the truth, which they refuse to say).
Man, there is an incredible amount of confidence that Landrieu is going to lose this one. Call me a too cautious but I am a worried about a GOP victory in this one.
