      Can confirm. Louisiana is actively getting worse because our congress is in a phase of revenge passing bills that our democrat governor had been blocking for the last 8 years, now that we have a newly elected republican governor.

          I still remember Brownback’s last campaign ad: “The sun is shining in Kansas and don’t let anybody tell you any different.”

          That last bit’s kind of prophetic now.

          I think the bigger reason that Vitter lost was the prostitution scandal. Edwards then turned out to be not so bad in Republican eyes that he got a second term.
