[StBernard] Georges Report: Turning Louisiana Around

[Westley Annis]

Well, it appears that Jindal bashing has gained popularity by candidates who
rank lastly in the polls, using political strategies to usurp political
gains and are desperate enough to waste so much of their own money in a run
for governorship. What we find here is postings of those who are playing the
traditional Louisiana politics as usual. We wonder how many of these "Jindal
negatives" we can find to post in a campaign these days, Wes <G>.

Anyhow, without taking political sides, let's think of how some of these
front-runners and pack followers will aim their sites on MORE infidelity by
the candidates? All of us know something about someone else--from a
political viewpoint and who did what with whom, whether it be "adulterous
infidelity" or "graft infidelity" (the first can be assumed by supposition,
the other by how great some who have little PAC money/fund raised that they
can spend millions of their own money for a $137,000 annual paycheck (up a
whopping 37% from Blanco's $95,000)! <g>.

Still, doing the math, the chump sum pales by comparison. What then, is the
goal of a zillionaire to take the top seat of LA Politics other than the
glory, egotistical stoking and power associated with what can be made in the
background?

Are all voters blind (and those who turn their heads) to realize where most
of the money returned to political seekers real source hails? 

No matter how the vote is tallied, it's how much dirt will be kicked around
during the next 3 months. However, it's not necessarily an easy win for some
who toss the most dirt as strategists can attest a "backfire" can result in
showing one in a bad light during a campaign. 

Given, those who are near the bottom have to climb harder and faster to get
to the top rung. Those who are moving up must tread carefully that they
don't slip and fall and those who are near the top of the ladder can always
slide. 

Beware of those bearing gift horses. Who knows what evil lies in its
underbelly when the lights wane?
