re: Do you respect any Louisiana politician?

How many of you have met more than 3 and talked to them at length? How many committees have y'all set in on? How many times have you watched the session down at the capitol? I bet not many.


Hand raised. Spent time conversing with quite a few. Even the 4th Floor.

It's made me more cynical towards the process, to be honest

Hand raised--in more than one state too.

Usually met them when they approach me for money.

I know several pretty well.

Do I respect them?? There are very few I respect--most of them are local. There are some real sleaze bags on the local level too.

I think the best way to clean up the state is to make the state representative and state senator jobs unpaid. That would dramatically and drastically change how the state does business.

Oh I think we should have at least one layer of the judiciary appointed instead of elected too.

I don't think we have any worse politicians than other states like Mississippi.
