This is because Mr Vitter is one of those anti-gay, God fearing, Christian values holy rollers who was caught with his pants down consorting with prostitutes back in 2007. There is little to compare with these smug self righteous zealots suddenly found wanting and Ms Daniels challenge has certainly stirred up a scandal Mr Vitter hoped might go away. Like all these sanctimonious Christian right wingers, Vitter -only when found out - confessed to a 'serious sin' but now 'had received forgiveness from God'. Presumably he has a direct line to the Almighty to be sure of these things. Whether that translates into forgiveness from the Louisiana electorate for his hypocrisy is another matter.

Ms. Daniels is unlikely to win but the prospect of the competition must be sending Republican Party chiefs into the depths of despair and making Barack Obama's 'new' Democratic America appear even more attractive nationwide.
Meanwhile Ms Daniels is having a ball - or two if her quotes are anything to go by. She has challenged Vitter to a family values debate but says 'he hasn't got the balls' and says she decided to enter the political arena because she was looking for something that was dirtier than the job she already had.
If Vitter hangs on to his seat it will probably be a Pyrrhic victory with the spectre of his carnal sins brought up at every stage and the Republican Party just praying for the whole thing to go away.
