I was tired when I posted last night and got districts mixed up. Donolon is a Republican but he is considered a sort of dubious one and has made his rep beating up insurance companies which wins few friends among the Chamber of Commerce and the Louisiana Business and Industry Council. If Maness could be euchred into running against Donolon in the primary and knock JD out then two birds would be knocked down with one stone. JD’s career would be pretty much ended and Maness would be rusticated to an important state wide office but one that removes one that the GOP believes the incumbent should be mostly seen and not heard from thus stagnating the career of a figure who could be a threat to the regular establishment GOP, of which Cassidy is a member in good standing.
What is none about Abraham who succeeded the Kissin’ Congressman.

I have met Abraham twice. Once at a candidate forum and once he came by and visited our morning coffee group.
FWIW, I was impressed.
Also, I’ve talked to two drug salesmen types who called on him regularly. Both said WYSIWIG.
Intelligent, driven, type A personality, plain spoken.
At his age, it is obvious he’s not in it to start a career and become a professional politician.
I’m very optimistic.

This is what I found...I live in the 6th CD, so there wasn't much heard out of the 5th. I heard his interview on the Moon Griffon radio show, but that's about it.
I knew Mayo was going to a run off, but I was pulling for Zach Dasher.
