New Orleans elections

This morning i saw an paid advertisement for the Mitch Landrieu for Mayor of New Orleans campaign. He mentioned something about cleaning up the city and getting rid of the criminals...my question is, why would he do such a thing to his family?

As bad as the 1992 governor's election between Edwin Edwards (The Crook) and David Duke (The Klucker...as in KKK Klucker) was; this one between Mitch Landrieu and Ray "Willie Wonka" Nagin takes a close second.

Mitch Landrieu is the sitting Lt. Governor in the great state of Louisiana. Personally, i think he is running for mayor of New Orleans because he sees ZERO chances of being elected governor of this state as a result of our sitting Governor, Kathleen "Call Me Babineaux at Election Time" Blanco. They are both democrats (and you can't fix stupid, as that great theologian and philosopher Ron White likes to say), and with the way Hurricane Blanco botched things up after Hurricane Katrina, anyone closely related to her has a snowball's chance of sitting in that office.

He is also the brother of embattled US Sen. Mary "Lil' Hillary" Landrieu, who probably never actually won the first election she was in; as well as being the son of Moon Landrieu who was the last white mayor in the Crescent City. I'll give Moon credit, he did give us the Super Dome...and then gave us Dutch Morial (another father whose son wanted to and then became mayor of NO.)

On the other side of the runoff is our favorite candy man, Ray Nagin. Nagin is a former Cox Communications executive who was supposed to bring a business man's mindset into the future of the Big Easy. Instead, as a result of Katrina, we found that he should go back to selling cable tv converters and leave running a major city to the big boys. To call this guy an idiot is an insult to idiots through out history! At least we all know the ingredients for chocolate now, right?

The end result is this; i'm glad i'm not living in New Orleans and that i don't have to vote in this election. Either way it goes, i'm afraid that this once great city will be more screwed up than it already is!
