MOST of LA cannot stand N.O. ... That couldn't have anything to do with how xenophobic New Orleans has always been, now, could it? Honestly, MANY, if not MOST. New Orleanians have always acted as though the rest of LA is populated by lesser mortals ... if not downright ignorant, uncouth rubes. That animosity has traditionally been mutual.
North Louisiana could not be more unlike South Louisiana. Neither could be more unlike New Orleans.
The regional differences in Louisiana are enormous and, possibly, insurmountable. This is all very sad at a time when all regions of the State need to pull together.

That is just mindbogglingly extraordinary chutzpah !!! Bobby Jindal is representing a NO district.. how many non whites do the redneck socialists in the rest of La send to congress ??? Where is the bastion of the David Duke vote ??? Awful truth be told a principled conservative in La cannot be elected statewide if he ain't white. And I am the last person to support race victim hood.. In La however it is just a fact of life that a near perfect conservative still needs to be white to convince even "his base" to vote for him. You get the government you deserve in the end.
