The logic of voting for a candidate whose party I intensely dislike escapes me. It's also impractical, even if Cao could somehow pull off an upset, he'd be the most junior member of the minority party in the House. He'd have even less influence than Jefferson because everyone knows that he'd have no chance of winning re-election. Even though Dollar Bill's clout is dimished, he still has friends on the Hill; especially in the Black Caucus. In fact, House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn has been a very good friend of NOLA's and has been instrumental in steering recovery money in our direction.
Adrastos's whole post here.
The pro-Cao contingent isn't really a "logic" vote anyway. It's more of an emotional vote by Yuppie-Left types who think that everything will be okay if we just PUNISH DOLLAR BILL RIGHT NOW because that would bring about the big symbolic end to all Dragons or something.
