Republicans Pull Out of Louisiana
Remember those Senate races I keep warning about? The Washington Post is reporting that the National Republican Senate Campaign Committee is pulling out of Louisiana, where Democrat-turned-Republican John Kennedy is facing off against perennially troubled incumbent Democrat Mary Landrieu. That means the national GOP is writing off its last realistic pickup opportunity and is now completely playing defense in the race to keep the Democrats from winning a 60-seat majority. Have a nice day.
UPDATE: Just a couple days later, WaPo says the NRSCC is going back on the air after some "tightening" in their internals. Whether this is a head fake or the result of Kennedy really posting improved numbers, I don't know.

No offense, friends, but anyone with more than a handful of synapses firing and principles that extend beyond pure party politics--I give you the great W. James Antle III!--is going to need bottles of prozac before this whole mess is over. To turn it around, if Republicans want us to hope for the best for them, they should stop giving us the worst, both in policy and strategy.

Mmm, Prozac.
