Oh and I almost missed this.

Sorry Abraham, you pay it off yourself. You had no business in the race. You didn’t have enough money for one primary.



I understand how you feel....

But....

Sore winner attitudes like this is not going to win elections.

To win elections you have to build a team that can build coalitions that can deliver the votes needed to win elections and sometimes you will have to pay money or give special favors to do that no matter how big your pride is and how you feel you're entitled to it as a primary winner.

For comparison's sake, Jay Dardenne's price for his endorsement in 2015 was a comfy job in the administration along with a fat paycheck and that was a price JBE was more than willing to pay and paid. Vitter wasn't and the rest is history.

Rispone should've done what was needed to bring Abraham completely on board and the fact that he didn't do that is a point of political stupidity and why he was a bad candidate.

Rispone's strategy is the one that had no business being in this race.

This rumor came from The Hayride and I’m pretty confident it’s partly or entirely wrong. When I look at Abraham’s final finance numbers from the Ethics Board, he loaned himself $500K over an entire year and some of that was probably paid back.

What I CAN believe is Eddie demanded Abraham donate a bunch of $$ to pay off Eddie’s huge debt.

This is how I know you aren’t Scott. Jay didn’t take that job for the money. He took it to protect any and all attempts to further reform the film subsidy programs we are still hemorrhaging general fund dollars through.

Why did he do this? To protect his son who is heavily involved in the industry and a future career in money-making in this heavily protected industry himself.

Jay can make money lots and lots of ways. He could have made money and saved his reputation in Baton Rouge. But Jay’s baby was in the crosshairs if Vitter or Rispone took JBE down.

You are such a hack. Like completely. You steal articles, reword them here as your own, “analysis,” and people forget last year you didn’t even realize there were less registered Republicans than Democrats in Louisiana while advocating for the idiotic position of throwing out open primaries which allow for the very conservative success you see at every level of local and statewide government.

Again...you’re such a hack it’s pathetic.
