I heard you can get really great shots of the skyline from there. :-)

After all, is is coincidental that the the highest fund raisers get leadership posts in Congress?

Glad to see you’re back again. Getting my footing in NOLA now, let me know if you have suggestions for things to do, places to see.

Me too! It’s the Independents who need to see this guy for who he really is.

OMG I took that long break and now you’re in New Orleans???? My favorite U.S. city (outside of home, of course). LUCKY!

The oft quoted line “Character is who you are when you think no one is looking” comes to mind here. I hope it will help independents see what choice they would be making if they picked him. For the die-hard base, however, nothing – not even evidence — is going to change their plans.

But, the 47% is always some other 47%, never them. “Sure, I get government assistance, but I earned it. Not like those freeloaders over there…”

Which is to say, while I think this video is important and will hurt him among independents, it probably won’t shake his base much, if at all.

After all, the candidates are their to receive checks.
