He simply doesn't know anything about how state government works. He doesn't know where the money goes, or how much is coming in. It's nothing but national talking points. At least Jindal knew the budget backward and forward. Rispone has no idea what's in it. He can't say what his policy positions are because he doesn't have any. I have been watching him for months and am convinced of this fact.
I can tell you that you are wrong. He does not have the command of state government like JBE or Jindal. Particularly, as you point out, about the workings of the state budget.
BUT he does understand taxes and business development. And he really understands workforce policy (education and training).
For better or worse he has decided to make this election a referendum on JBE and not about who has the better policies. Politically that makes sense.
I am not sure that knowing and not sharing policy ideas is better than not knowing. Neither is ideal.
But yet, I will take either over tax and spend JBE.

You have to admit Rispone's take on finding money for the $14 billion infrastructure back log was hilarious. I'm not raising the gas tax. He was ok with Jindal allowing the LSP and other state agencies to take funds for administrative uses away from the TIME program. I do believe it was JBE that stopped that practice. Again, just trust Rispone. He can magically create the $14 billion needed to fix our roads and bridges without raising any taxes. This is more than Fuzzy Math here folks.
What was even more hilarious was Edwards bragging about all his plans to bring down the 14 Billion dollar backlog when four years ago the backlog was 13 Billion dollars.
And anyone with half a brain should know La. couldn’t build 14 Billion dollars of road projects in four years if they found 14 Billion dollars in the capital basement today.
The fact is the backlog grew under Edwards.

Everybody dances to the tunes of their "special' interests. JBE and Rispone. Jindal had his and Kathleen Blanco had hers. Edwin Edwards however, was a "special interest"

Rispone came across as full on retard in that debate.

Demshoes, you must be the retard...Rispone won the debate by doing nothing.

Honestly it seems that everyone who’s is Pro-Rispone are really just anti-JBE. Doesn’t really seem to have a platform besides Screw MR. honor code and Trump Endorsed him.

JBE is going to win because Eddy hasn’t shown enough.
Posted on 10/31/19 at 3:17 pm to Slippy
Eddie is going to Trump. Because Trump.. Trump Trump Trump Trump.
Also, he believes in strong borders.
He's also going to hunt.
I mean, seriously. What more do you need to know? He's already told you what he's going to Trump when he Trump Trumps.

As JBE is crying about Rispone not having a plan, it occurs to me that JBE hasn’t presented his plan for what he would do if elected to a second term. Isn’t that ironic?

JBE looks like the mutated result of multiple generations of incest.
You ever been to Amite?
I know 2 people from Amite. One got arrested for attempted 2nd degree murder of his girlfriend and the other is for all intents and purposes, a prostitute.
The prostitute is JBE's cousin. Seriously, she is.
