Our Governor said we had the fastest growing economy of any southeastern state.

How can he make up stuff like that and get away with it?

JBE stands up and tells everyone how he got La. out of the ditch, but when asked about car insurance he said that’s on the legislature even though he controls certain legislators and certain committee chairman.

Rispone is a selfish slimeball. Attacks Abraham and refuses to say he’ll support a fellow republican.

Landing deals for your buddies on the backs of taxpayers is what fricked the place to hell and back.

Eddie Rispone is a liar at best, a back stabber at worst. Screw him. He ran ads that he knew would fool the average La voter. He manipulated em pre election and he will frick em over post election.

Rispone was the only candidate on that set who owned his mistakes. He admitted common core was a very bad idea.

Abraham said his mistakes weren't mistakes and so did JBE.

It’s evident you are an Abraham supporter. I’m from the Mecca and know members of his family. I have a business relationship with a man I’m certain is the wealthiest man of St Tammany Parish that tells me Doc Abraham would be the best governor in his 80 plus years of life. I have no doubt Mr Abraham is a solid man and an excellent medical doctor. I just don’t think he can win this election and I’m not for JBE in any capacity. The worst thing that can happen is a split vote on the GOP side to allow JBE an outright victory.

My question to you is: “Will you support Rispone in a run-off against JBE?”.

Not even a little bit. I will cast a vote for JBE with a smile.

I can not tolerate a person that intentionally misleads those that show them trust. Eddie Rispone has zero character. I know what I get with JBE. Rispone has shown that he is 1 for 1 in doing what was politically expedient. He had one choice to choose what was right and what was wrong, he panicked and took the wrong path. He is not a leader he is a con man.

JBE said he wasn’t raising taxes and would support Louisiana businesses.

I trusted him to do that. He hasn’t.

Yeah, me too. The only Governor that has lost jobs in the Trump economy and that doesn’t work for me. If you think North LA is dead now, give it three more years of JBE.

I’d rather take a chance on an outsider that is proven to be highly successful in the private sector than what I’ve seen from JBE.

JBE is just a politician, I expect the same. Everyone knew he was going for more revenue. Everyone also knows that the tax base of La will shrink forever more. Until we educate our young people and clean up govt no one is coming here to invest in our State. Not one person will look at JBE or Rispone and go....hell yeah, that is the guy I have faith in.

Oh, they may cut some deals, but they will give away the farm just to get the win. Just look at how they run their political campaigns.

I still find JBE less slimy than Eddie.

Okay. This has to be a troll.

The guy that has literally propped up the trial lawyer industry in Louisiana is less slimy than a guy who ran an attack ad on another conservative?

Please.

I cant get past him twisting the knife after stabbing Abraham in the back. My sense of right and wrong wont allow it.

If you are concerned about JBE being re elected how in the world could you case a vote for the guy that all but locked it up.

That's the difference between a businessman and a politician.

A businessman recognizes inefficiencies and mistakes and eliminates/corrects them because if he doesn't he will go out of business.

Politicians are rarely held to account for bad policies and will either paper them over, cast blame at others, or throw more $$$ at it hoping that will solve it. There is zero incentive to admit/correct mistakes.
