Cassidy was not the state GOP (read Jindal)'s first choice. They wanted Boustany, but Boustany is looking forward to a senate run to replace Vitter (a state GOP pariah).


Cassidy and Teepell (who basically runs the LAGOP) had a huge falling out. From that time, rumors circled about Angelle possibly getting into the race.

Boustany would have been an interesting take, as his camp and Vitter's camp hate each other's guts as much as Vitter vs Jindal.
