I would take being Senator living it up in DC for 6 years with another easy 6 on the way over Governor for 4-8 years of a state that has so many institutional problems.


Then you don't know Louisiana politics. For nearly any Louisiana politician, the governor's seat is a pinnacle. The only exception would be the President of the USA of course. I think it has something to do with being the universal leader of Napoleonic law

The governorship of Louisiana is among the most powerful in the country. He or she controls more than just the agenda. The cost of living in BR is far below that of DC, as everyone knows.

Ok?

Louisiana Governor as of right now is a business as usual position.

Meaning that you're still Governor of a state that has so many problems that if you tried to fix even one of them, the special interests and career politicians will bring out the knives and pitchforks and come after you so hard.

Vitter had the most detailed policy platform ever out of any candidate in Louisiana history and everybody went after him hard.

While JBE had nothing but platitudes and virtually no policy platform, just jindal bashing and Vitter's hookers.
