90K IN THE FREEZER, COLD CASH JEFFERSON IN RUN OFF FOR HIS SEAT, REDUMBLICANS YAWN

It seems increasingly clear that the Republicans have resigned, literally quit, forfeited. And we are being swallowed whole by a marxist coup the likes of which is unprecedented in American history.

Right now, we are about to have a runoff for the congressional seat of the 2nd Congressional district (New Orleans) of Louisiana.  The Democrat is the recently-indicted Bill "Cold Cash" Jefferson (the FBI found $90,000 in cash in neat little packages in his freezer) The Republican is Joseph Cao.

I'm sitting here AMAZED that the Republicans have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pick off a Democrat in a majority black district, and they are doing virtually NOTHING!

All I've seen from Joseph Cao is a few yard signs and some billboards.  I haven't seen any TV ads, or heard any radio ads (of course, the only TV channels I watch are Fox News and the NFL Network!).

Cold Cash Jefferson is ripe for the picking!  He's been indicted, and he'll likely go to jail pretty soon.

If Jefferson was a Republican, I guarantee you that the Democrats would be here EN-MASSE, flooding the district with advertising, agreesive speeches (such as, "Congressman Jefferson is about to go to jail!  Do we really want to elect someone like that?"), ACORN fraudulent voter registrations, and more.  Instead, we get virtually NOTHING from the Republicans!

What's going on?  What's wrong with these idiots? 

You wonder if they really want to win.

Here is some info about the race:

Jefferson is being supported by some prominent black pastors of New Orleans

(By the way, I'm a Christian, and I think this "stinks to high heaven", if you'll pardon the pun!)

UPDATE: OT BUT RELATED:Democrats Attempt Full Precinct Disenfranchisement, ACLU Silent

the house speaker here in kentucky is getting ready to steal a house seat by throwing out an entire precinct's votes.  yeah, he wants to disqualify an entire precinct's votes because of a minor error the bipartisan team of poll workers might have made.  if that precinct isn't counted, the general election sways from the republican incumbent to the democrat.
