That guy should be run out of town. He is just so horrible. He is an example of a politician without any reigns. It seems he was running New Orleans like his personal fiefdom and he certainly has proven he has no shame.
He is, incredibly, head and shoulders above the Governor...they would both best be gone and very soon.
Seems both Nagin and Blanco are missing in action nowadays....
Thats probably a good thing!
Well to be fair I have not seen my Republican Senator David Vitter either.
Vitter is hard at work trying to come up with dollars for the region, that's why you don't see him. I have no idea what Nagin is doing... wringing his hands and trying to pass the blame off to someone else? That's all that I hear from him.
Vitter is hard at work trying to come up with (our) dollars for the region? Hmmm that doesn't make me any better about that whole fiasco in NO & Louisiana. Vitter was part of the "blame Bush" along with Nagin and Blanco. The last thing I want is to spend billions of our taxpayer dollars to rebuild that cesspool in corrupt NO and Louisiana.
That's ok, the 10,000 dead people will be sure to vote for Nagin, or whoever the Democrat candidate is.
"That's right Chief....it's the old floater voter trick!!"
LOL!
If the 10,000 dead don't exist in reality, I'm sure they exist on paper...
You have to kidding that this fake is running for office again?
I could not look my people in the eye, had I acted like he did when the chips were down.
You could pull out $100k in cash, and hire a college media group to put together five great video ad's and take Nagin down easily. The problem is that you can't trust the polling elite who control the write-in's and dig up dead bodies. And even when Nagin does win....which he will...what then? There is no future for New Orleans for at least five to ten years. Most folks are going to question moving back. Its not worth the hassle.
Right you are. NO, Baton Rouge, Shreveport, and the entire state have been so corrupt for so many years, that nothing can help them.
The affected area was size of Great Britain. That cesspool called New Orleans is but a tiny part of the affected population, much of it highly conservative and on the northshore which is above sea level and needs no levee protection system. The whole area needs an economic boost, not just NOLA. Besides, NOLA is still the largest port in the US and like it or not, you need to maintain that port for the rest of the country.
Nagin met with the President in Washington just this past Thursday.
Here's a thread about it.

If they vote him into office again then they deserve everything he does. If this wasn't enough of a wakeup call for them, nothing is.
