Isn't her brother Mitch mayor of New Orleans? Does he have any national ambitions?
Yes and maybe. Mitch, like any Louisiana politician, wants to be governor. Right now, he’s the highest polling Democrat in the state, but he still trails Vitter, who announced last January for governor. Recall that Mitch was Lt. Governor while Blanco was governor, and during the Katrina catastrophe.
The election is in the fall of 2015.
It is my considered opinion that Mary’s impending butt-whipping may rub off on Mitch.
