(Sign of the times or an errant sparrow mistaken as a harbinger? Clearly its all George Bush's fault. Then again, it may be the Commie residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, that had something to do with it, too.)
"Huey Long must be turning over in his grave. Qualifying closed today for Louisianas Fall 2011 statewide elections, and the once super-dominant Democratic Party has failed to field a single credible candidate for statewide office.
Not a single one.
Louisianas citizens have common sense. They understand that the policies favored by Washington Dems (on energy in particular) seem expressly designed to cripple Louisianas economy and kill Louisianas best jobs. They realize that theres no real national role to play for a pro-life Democrat.
Just recently, Democratic registration fell below 50% for the first time in, well, ever.
Governor Bobby Jindal will run against a field of nine opponents: four independents, four Democrats and one Libertarian. Two of the Dems are schoolteachers, and one of those is a self-described Tea Party Democrat who will try to outflank Jindal on the right.
Other than Jindal, the Governors race features a field of political neophytes and perennial also-rans. None of the challengers currently holds elective office. John Georges, who finished #3 in the 2007 Governors race, has decided to take his $10 million & go home rather than run again."
