THE NEW ARCHITECT – AT 12:32 P.M. ET:  One of the great heroes of this last election was Reince Priebus, the Republican National Chairman.  For once, the party has a leader who knows what "win" means.  For once, losing isn't standard.  Now Priebus, in dealing with the Louisiana runoff, shows us that you take nothing for granted.  From Daily Caller: 

Look out everyone: the RNC is going all out in Louisiana for Bill Cassidy.

Less than a week after their nationwide drubbing of the Democrats in Tuesday’s midterm elections, the RNC is flooring the car and putting all of their efforts into the Louisiana Senate race in an effort to propel Rep. Bill Cassidy to victory over yet another Democrat incumbent, Sen. Mary Landrieu.

In a Friday interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, RNC chairman Reince Priebus detailed the party’s efforts over the next month as they look to increase their majority in the Senate.

“Are the Democrats trying to head fake us in Louisiana by pulling the money out of Mary Landrieu? Or have they really given up? And are you going to take that head fake?” asked Hewitt.

“I just saw that all the ad buys for starting on Monday in Louisiana, every single market in Louisiana, there is not a single ad pro-Landrieu booked in Louisiana – not from her campaign, not from the Dem Senate Committee, no 527,” said the RNC chairman.

“If you look at the pro-Cassidy ad buys…every media market’s full. So I don’t know exactly how she’s going to compete,” Priebus questioned. “The RNC is sending 220 full-time staffers this weekend on planes. We’ve got hotels, meal plans, cars…”

COMMENT:  Right on!  Always fight as if you're 20 points behind.  The election isn't over until the votes are counted.  This is what the party has needed for years.
