Attack Ad Of The Year: David (Diaper Boy) Vitter
Dan Savage weighs in on Diaper Boy.

David Vitter, of course, is a whoremonger and a conservative Christian who supports "family values." But Vitter is right with God and right with his constituents—and will most likely get his rightwing ass reelected—because, you see, he at least has the decency to hate the homos. Vitter supports a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage, opposes the repeal of DADT, the passage of ENDA, and on and on. Just as New York's Carl Paladino can style himself as a faithful Catholic—never mind his extramarital affair, his lovechild, his mistress—because he hates the gays (at least the grinders in Speedos), Vitter is a "good" Christian despite the philandering because he hates the gays. They set the bar pretty low for themselves, don't they? Hate the gays and you're right with God and right with Republicans. No personal sacrifices required.

1. Charlie is a pathetic Dem who will be losing to diaper Dave by double digits.
We need fighters, and Charlie Melocon is a weak assed wimp. Its getting worse here too.
We have another local guy here outside N.O. who is an infammatory gay bashing,'liberal' bashing SOB. No one is willing to challenge these asswipes with any conviction, so they will win.

2. Uh, did you watch the debate last night on C-SPAN?
Melancon (proper spelling) creamed Diaper Dave. I was prepared to be underwhelmed by him, but he did a great job and made sense. Vitter babbled talking points a lot.

3. Dude, 'um', all you want.
Are you being bombarded day and night, on TV and radio, by all the ads these right wingers are putting out?
One isolated swing a week before the voting will not do much. Diaper Dave wins by double digits. Book it.

4. I didn't question that he will lose, I questioned the "he's a wimp"
routine.
