Vitter has announced that he will not run for re-election to the Senate.

Apparently many Republicans are eyeing Vitter's Senate seat, including Boustany.

The question is - will Democrat New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu consider a run for Senate, now the political climate in LAmay be changing?

How did the Dems do in the down ballot races? Did the Edwards votes

have a positive effect down ballot?

In banking and with prescriptions, I find it's better to deal with a human face.

It may take a few more minutes to drive through, etc., but worth it.

Also, with prescriptions - it's better that a human you recognize scans and evaluates your various prescriptions. A pharmacist knows the interactions between various drugs and can prevent problems.

Sometimes, technology isn't the best answer.

St. Vincent dePaul society iis very helpful. They will provide help with

rent on a short-term basis.
They do not evangelize.

You're correct, Bryant. I have to laugh to myself

when glancing at the number of responses to a posting, in the lower right corner, when, for example, 10 are listed and I see only two. - Then I realize that the other eight are from those on my ignore list. Heh, heh.

I have also hidden relatives on FB to not see their vacuous postings of

stupid right-wing junk, including pro-gun material.
So, yes, I can peek in when photos of new babies are posted, or read angry screeds when the marriage is in bad shape. I don't see much to be gained in my case of calling them out.

Even though I don't post political material, they can see my "like" of Jimmy Carter, for instance, and know where I stand.

I don't believe one changes minds with Facebook postings, when they still have their families, their media choices, and maybe even their ministers reaffirming those choices daily.

I understand that the lights on the Eiffel Tower have been turned off

tonight.
They will return again to light up the City of Light!

For the people of Paris, and of France. especially those killed, injured,

held hostage, and in any way affected by the terrorism presently on-going -
We beseech you, Lord, have mercy.
