I think he should speak less.

We don't know who the people are who are going to vote and we don't know where they are.

I've never heard of an election like this where you don't know where the voters are.

Nobody knows who they are or where they are or if they're going to vote. Ideally, you'd have to run a multi-city campaign in Baton Rouge, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta.

It's expensive enough to advertise in metropolitan New Orleans, but if you have to add in Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Houston and Atlanta, you might as well run for president. I don't know what the answer is. And, of course, for direct mailing, they don't have their addresses.

What he?s done is reverse his base. He got 85% of the white vote when he was elected first time. Now, this time, he?s likely to get a small percent of the white vote, but a large percent of the black vote.

This is the most screwed up election I've ever seen.

It certainly didn't look like there was any mass movement out of Houston to Lake Charles to vote.

If it's a close race between second and third place, that number of voters could be very important.
