How did Louisiana elect Landry?

Yikes.

Electing this doofus has done more damage to the LSU program in the blink of an eye than anything else in the last 26 years.

We are a state full of absolute ignorant retarded assholes.

Yup

JBE got Landry elected.

Louisiana is an overwhelmingly Conservative State and he was the Republican candidate with the highest name recognition.

I do remember my first impression being I liked him because he came out against John Bell constantly which I liked because JB lost me real early when he threatened LSU.

But once he became Governor I saw a pattern that I should have noticed from jump, his attacks on JB were largely publicity stunts to get his name in the headlines and were often bizarre, poorly thought out and executed attacks that even though I may have agreed with on some level he seemed to miss the mark awkwardly.

then as Governor he kept doing the same sorts of things....again and again, and it was/is so bad that in an overwhelmingly Republican state he's losing much of that base with his dumbfrickery...and he doesn't even seem cognizant of it. His playing political football has almost always made him look out of step and obtuse.

Repubs better runs someone against him in the primary or we'll end up with another Blanco.

He got the State GOP endorsement about a week after announcing his candidacy. Suffocated all others running against him in the primary.

He graduated from Loyola University Law School.

Ranked like 134th in the country.


I guess that’s an upgrade from where he spent the real meat of his law studies, which was southern university (ranked 195/195).

It was a rigged election

The Louisiana Republican Party is corrupt. It’s run by a group of guys that have decent money and strong connections.

Once Landry got the Republican endorsement before some people bad even announced they were running, I knew the fix was in.

Most people will simply vote for whoever has the Republican Party endorsement.
