BATON ROUGE - State Attorney General Charles Foti's office has delayed until this morning release of its opinion on the question of whether former U.S. Sen. John Breaux is eligible to run for governor. After saying the opinion would be released on Thursday, the AG's office came back with the delay.

On Tuesday, April 10, 2007, the Moon Griffon Radio show released a parody of possible gubernatorial candidate John Breaux.
Since Breaux's retirement from the U.S. Senate, he has been working in Washington DC as a lobbyist with the powerful firm of Patton Boggs.
Though Breaux resides in Maryland, he has requested an opinion from the Louisiana Attorney General Charles Foti on the issue of being a Louisiana citizen in order to run for Governor.
With all the controversy, a handful of parodies have popped up on the radio and internet. The most recent came from Louisiana's only statewide political program, The Moon Griffon Show. Click here for Moon's website
The tune follows the same as Big Bad John.

However, Louisiana is corrupt to its political core. Say hello to Governor Breaux.
of course he is a Saint's fan and a Nagin noogie and he's in!
“However, Louisiana is corrupt to its political core. Say hello to Governor Breaux”
Not necessarily, a couple of polls have shown Jindal beating Breaux fairly soundly in the last month+.
All the better for Jindal. If he can beat Breaux, then that just may give him some national credentials.
The 2007 election will be Louisiana’s corrupt past (Breaux) against a promising future (Jindal)
I like that song, Edwin Edwards Eyes, thanks for sharing.

Looks like Foti decided to duck:

Foti punted. Wonder what Breaux will do now.
Time for Breaux to do some judge shopping.
See the link in Post 13.
Foti couldn’t come up with the excuse Breaux needed.
Foti punted on the decision. Breaux is not running, never intended to, he does this every gov. election. Even if he did run, Jindal will win, will be no runoff. It’s over. Jindal has it won:)
