Maybe, Louisiana is not as red as many think?


The GOP in LA has close to a super majority in the state house and state senate, has both US senators, has 5/6 of Congressmen, and has every statewide elected office except governor.

LA is not as red as other southern states (because even the "conservatives" here want big government populism) but we should at least be able to get a RINO into the governor's mansion.

Vitter in 2015 did not actually run a real campaign, and neither did Abraham or Rispone in 2019. They are all lazy and got outworked by JBE, which is astonishing.

If Rispone ran the same kind of campaign that Vitter ran in 2015, he beats JBE by a comfortable margin. Vitter had a very impressive platform that was fully fleshed out.

That's how lazy and tone deaf Rispone was.

Abraham was running a fine campaign and didn't make his campaign about Trump and would've beaten JBE in the runoff.

His biggest problem was money and he was getting outspent by Rispone by a huge margin.

Can't win if you have no money, especially with the lopsided ratio your opponent is spending by.

Vitter had to deal with Angelle and Dardenne constantly nipping at his heels and making shite up about him including a claim about him killing hookers at a debate.

Vitter's only mistake was that he didn't anticipate the threat that JBE posed in the runoff and let him sneak in without so much as a single mailer, ad spot or social media post about him.

That's on him and him only and he earned the loss on that basis.
