NOLA residents- has Landrieu reached Nagin or Blanco levels of incompetence yet?

Landrieu.

What do you mean "reached the levels of incompetence'???? He started out at that level and has exponentially sunk lower!!!

He is a pandering frick stick who's level of incompetence becomes more apparent as he is examined. This a-hole had money to remove statues that did NOT MATTER one way or the other....but did not have enough money to maintain pumps that prevent flooding in the city.....INCOMPETANCE YOU SAY???

He is way worse than Nagin. Nagin checked out after Katrina. Mitch doesn't have the Katrina excuse.

I'm on the Northshore but I would say the city under Landrieu is much worse than Nagin. Before Katrina, Nagin wasn't doing too terrible a job. And I'm a conservative republican.

I think he's better than Nagin, but he's made a few critical mistakes - freezing NOPD hiring and now the S&WB mess.

Nagin was far superior, best black mayor the city ever had. He didn't have a personal agenda or a political machine that cost the city. His corruption was marginal and he was caught because he didn't have guys to cover for him because he had no political friends. Landrieu has been a disaster with his cronyism and self-aggrandizement, the city is much more unlivable for functional people than ever before. Landrieu is an incompetent arrogant arse.

I was there for Katrina/Blanco and Nagin, not so much for Landrieu.

Landrieu has brought the city to a new low.

Born and raised in Nola, my career took me to Lafayette area. Before Katrina, as has been stated, Nagin wasn't doing a bad job. It's after Katrina that he kind of lost his way. Landrieu, on the other hand, has been incompetent from the start. As the mayor of a city that is, quite literally, below sea level, one of your first priorities SHOULD be the SWB. He's chosen to try and take on social justice programs using up an already limited budget on issues that do not affect the safety and security of it's citizens. It's extremely sad to watch.

I love New Orleans, but I will never live there again as long as this string of Democratic mayors continues.

That wont keep the voters from electing them. As much as I dislike the Morials and Landrieus, they did go to a fine school. AMDG

Difficult question to answer because you left out corruption with incompetence.

For example, Nagin was more competent in governing than the other two, but he was less competent in his corruption and got caught. His management did not result in human deaths and massive property damage!

Blankstare was more competent in her corruption since while everyone knows she mismanaged the recovery money to favor herself and allies over the people. But, she was not charged.

On the other hand Mitch the Bitch hasn't really been accused of serious political corruption, but everyone knows public tax dollars are being stolen at the normal prodigious rates of Orleans Parish. So he is the most competent at corruption. But he is the most incompetent at actually governing.

Blankstare's Katrina delays probably killed dozens of her citizens, but the Mitch the Bitch's crime incompetence has killed hundreds. Kathy's Katrina Coma probably didn't result in an increase of property damage since the flooding achieved its maximum quickly. The recent flooding and reduced pumping capacity is directly attributed to Larcenous Landrieu. Theft, kickbacks, and mismanagement prevented the repair of New Orleans' dilapidated infrastructure. Could that electrical fire have been prevented if the statue removal money been directed there by a competent mayor? You bet your sweet arse!
