Isn’t it a little too late to have done that?
Just as the national GOPe cannot have Trump or Cruz as President and would prefer Hillary, the Louisiana GOPe (Jindal, Darden, Angelle, et al) could not countenance a true conservative like Vitter as Governor.
And that’s why Darden and Angelle ran, to cut up Vitter.
The Country Club GOP here in Louisiana is vicious. I’ve done battle with them for 30 years, and I know who they are. They hate our guts.
