I think it may be difficult for Democrats to get much traction against Sen. David Vitter by making his 2007 prostitution scandal an issue in his upcoming race for Louisiana governor.
Personally, I’m much more concerned about how Vitter and his GOP colleagues have been screwing the poor, not prostitutes. Now, that’s the real scandal.
That said, the seven-year-old scandal will be an issue in his governor’s race. Vitter’s opponents will force him to answer more questions about it than he’s answered thus far. Which is zero. And the national press will be obsessed with it, which will only make another Louisiana election a laughingstock.
Like it or not, that’s a fact.
Do you want proof that the scandal will continue to dog him? Check out these recent posts on Twitter.
