STUNNER! Louisiana’s Cao, ahead of all Dems for reelection in the heart of New Orleans

From Eric Dondero:

The only single incumbent Republican considered vulnerable for reelection in the entire country is first-termer Rep. Joseph Cao, who represents heavily Democrat New Orleans. Cao was elected in a bit of a fluke, after longtime incumbent Democrat William Jefferson was busted for taking bribes. ($90,000 stashed in his freezer.)

(Republicans may lose a House seat in Delaware, as Rep. Mike Castle is moving up to the Senate.)

Now this Total Shocker from The Hotline:

Conventional wisdome suggests Rep. Joseph Cao (R-LA) is the most vulnerable GOPer in Congress, seeking re-election in a heavily African-American district in which any scandal-free Dem should easily top half the vote. But conventional wisdom has been wrong before, and a new poll for Cao's campaign hopes to prove it wrong again.

Cao led state Rep. Cedric Richmond (D) by a 51%-26% margin, according to a survey conducted May 27-June 2 by LA pollster Verne Kennedy. Cao leads Richmond by a 67%-13% margin among white voters, and by a narrower 39%-36% margin among African American voters.

IMPORTANT NOTE!

The liberal media is spreading a wrong number needed for Republicans to win the House. The conventional line is 40, which is incorrect. Actually, only 39 seats are needed for Republicans to win control. And that number maybe 38, for a West Virginia conservative Democrat who is assured election to his first term, has already stated for the record that he would not vote to reelect Pelosi as House Speaker.
