venal, self serving, short sighted.
If every poor evacuee went to another state and suddenly had a new life with good people, good schools, no drug gangs and sang songs all day,,,she would complain and want them back in the projects in NO where drug dealing occurs openly, people are killed, children can't read. She wants the dollers from the feds for these people and the votes.
She barely won the last election. Barely. And Landrieu was hoping for a veep spot on the gore ticket and didn't get it. Now she never will. So she twitches.
Does Blanco think she can force them back?
Is she talking about the people whose houses weren't damaged? She cannot possibly be talking about the 9th ward, right?
