Why is he so bad,

Like I already said, he's a career opportunist who segued into becoming an opportunist politician whose sole goal is political career advancement.

what is the better alternative?

There isn't one. Louisiana is a total shithole with a broken political infrastructure. There is no hope, and there is no better alternative because anyone with any sense or ability has fled or will flee to other states.

I'll hold my nose and vote for him if it comes to that. He's still better than any Democrat.

Were any of them impactful?


Winning 5 or 6 Supreme Court cases is pretty damn impactful regardless of the subject matter.

Abortion ban being 1
Vaccine mandate under OSHA mandate

There have been others.

This is just a bunch of meaningless gobbledygook to pretend you're above the fray.

Dude's a typical La. sleezebag politician. So will anyone else be who might run against him.

From what I can see of the potential "pool" - I can't see a better choice.

Float on!

Ok, convince me. I agree he is a politician, but his SC fights against the Biden regime were very important. So, why shouldn't i vote for him?

Yeah, but that kind of attitude is what gave us JBE. 2 factions in a state wanted "their guy" and couldn't come together to vote for the guy with the best chance. I'm not saying Rispone was great, but he had a better chance than Abraham at beating Edwards.

THIS!!! A handful of posters will comment "he's the worst" or "he's just so stupid". Ok, well he won quite a few SC battles that needed to be won desperately here in Louisiana. He can't be all that stupid.

Why is he stupid? Why is he the worst? Convince me with some examples of why he would be a shitty governor.

The same people that will hold their nose and vote for Landry because he is a career opportunists are the same people that were sucking off Bobby Jindal 10 years ago.

Hell, he's probably a better choice than either two in our last runoff choice.

Right, hence my position that he is absolutely terrible. That the other options are worse doesn't change that. I said I would vote for him if I had to.

The other poster asked why Landry is so bad. I answered.

Saying that I would vote for him if it came to that is literally the exact opposite of what you mention in your post as getting JBE elected.

I can't stand Jeff Landry and think he's basically a Bobby Jindal wanna be but without Jindal's intelligence - he's dumb as a bag of turnips. But even with that he would be a dramatic improvement over JBE

He is a sanctimoninous prig that tends to be over zealous when it comes to religious issues, but hey if he is the best we got, why not?

I would vote for him over Nungesser.

But you didn't. You gave an opinion. Give me examples of why he's terrible.

His faux-religious pandering on cultural issues throughout his career is a great start.
