Is this Republican doomed?

​

It’s been an article of faith for almost two years in Louisiana that U.S. Sen. David Vitter would become the state’s next governor.

Vitter began 2015 as the early favorite to replace Jindal, despite eventually drawing two prominent Republican opponents and a little-known Democrat challenger.

Then, a strange thing happened. In the state’s Oct. 24 primary (candidates of all parties run in a so-called “open primary”), Vitter nearly missed the Nov. 21 runoff election. He earned only 23 percent of the vote, trailing his lone Democrat opponent by 17 points.

Vitter has been reeling like a punch-drunk boxer for more than two weeks. He now faces new revelations regarding his connection to a Washington, D.C., prostitution service.

Vitter missed a Feb. 27, 2001, U.S. House vote honoring slain American soldiers while he waited on a phone call from a prostitute. It was the first time anyone had credibly suggested that Vitter’s prostitution habit had influenced the performance of his public duties.

Normally, I'm all for politicians using upscale hookers - but doing so on "company time" is particularly egregious, and not the mark of a true professional.

I only wonder if Chik-fil-A will cater the election party......

He's a family values kind of guy.

He likes to be diapered while he's empowering "mommy", I heard.
