Race Analysis
10/27/10 -- Do our "Holy Cao" jokes get a new lease on life? Democrat Cedric Richmond is certainly the favorite in this heavily Democratic New Orleans-based district where Barack Obama received 75 percent of the vote. We think Cao loses, but we can't rule out the upset (in one of the few districts where a Republican incumbent winning would truly be an upset).
