I really hope you're right about the black vote. I grew up in LA and continue to follow from afar political developments in my beloved home state. This election is a clear choice between business-as-usual and taking a gutsy, innovative step forward. Ordinarily I would expect Louisianians to choose the former by a wide margin. But there seems to be something different to this election. Something exciting in the air. Maybe I'm just getting my hopes up, and we'll all know for sure after Saturday, but is it possible that Louisiana is finally turning a corner on its ignoble political past?

"but is it possible that Louisiana is finally turning a corner on its ignoble political past?"

It began with the election of New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin. Then Nagin turned around and not only crossed party lines he crossed the Democratic sleeze machine to throw his support behind Jindal. This was a political earthquake in my opinion. I never thought I'd see the day a New Orleans Mayor endorsing a staunch Republican.

Blacks have had it. I heard a guy on the radio today saying he and others were tired of the Democratic "pimps" courting their votes every election. If just 5% of the black vote State-wide defect to Jindal as predicted, it's going to be a long day for Blanco come Saturday.
