I saw the headline for this Talking Points Memo post on Twitter.

Underdog Challenges Vitter To Mixed Martial Arts Steel Cage Match

The Daily Advertiser reports independent candidate Mike Spears wants to open a can of whoop ass on Republican David Vitter to "restore the honor of Louisiana."

“Sen. Vitter’s behavior – his admission to breaking the law in 2007 – has insulted the honor of Louisiana and the Louisiana Senate seat,” Spears said.

“I’m in this race, and this fight, to restore the honor of Louisiana and of the nation as well.”

Spears vowed to take part in a three-round bout, regardless of whether Vitter accepts the challenge. USA-MMA will provide a standby fighter in case Vitter is absent, he said.

Don't hold your breath for Vitter to get the cage with Spears.
