Rispone supporters, do you really believe this bullshite about Abraham? Especially when you say that you will vote for Abraham if he's in the runoff against JBE?
Abraham is one of the most conservative members in Congress right now and reps an R+15 district.

How is a man that is literally at the tail end of a lengthy career in medicine a career politician? Rispone would have the same number of years in politics as Abraham has now if he is elected to a term. Will he be a career politician after his first term?
Yeah, I like Parmen but these anti Abraham guys are silly. Rispone is not like Trump, he's a little twirp and can't command an audience/room. I'll have to vote for the phony Keebler Elf if he makes the runoff, but that's the last support he'll ever get from me.

Thank you Lake Charles and SW LA. Now how is Lafayette, Houma, Monroe, Alex, BR, NOLA and Shiteport doing?
BTW, LC growth was scheduled prior to JBE's term. In fact, SASOL cut back on their expansion during JBE term due to obvious State Taxes, Corporate Taxes and condoning of lawsuits vs Industries by JBE.
We should be on par with Texas with our resources and tourism yet we are near LAST in everything. But yeah, let's keep JBE. Cool.

Here's a video of Eddie saying nice things about Ralph when both of them were actually focused on John Bel Edwards and making sure he can't get 50% in the first round.

Well and there was a big jump in august. I guess we’ll see if those numbers are verified. I hope they are and I would assume you would too.
Big jump???
1000 more jobs is nothing compared to our neighbors. We are leaking oil.

Great video. It should be noted that was right after a question for each candidate to say something positive about their republican opponent. Also of note (of course Abraham wouldn’t post the other part of the clip) right after this Abraham’s positive was he “he has money and support Jindal and common core”. So don’t act like Abraham is some stand up guy. He has been playing the backdoor politics since day one.
Go on Abraham’s website and look through the archives. Their are 3 examples where he calls out Rispone by name, negatively campaigning against him. All of which are prior to “the ad” you and the other Abraham shills are upset about.
Not to mention the bs statement of “this is on July 5th BEFORE Abraham started winning in the polls”. That dude was polling ahead from the beginning (on name recognition alone) all the way up to the first debate (which was after the ad). His horrible performance and back and fourth answer in the debate, combined with Rispone’s great and authentic performance is what dropped him in the polls. Abraham and his supporters need to take that accountability not Rispone.
Abraham said he would cut taxes, is tax neutral, and would approve a gas tax. He said he was prolife as in the rapist father should have a say in the abortion of his child (twice! So the “didn’t understand the question is either a lie or he is unfit). He said you can’t cut certain taxes because of the constitution, that he would not want a constitutional convention (bc he is too scared it may not be good? Even though we get to vote on it?), and that he would cut taxes across the board (which he admitted can’t be done because of the constitution!). All of this in the same 1st debate that resulted in him getting jumped in the polls!!!

Hahaha it’s like clockwork with that one stat lol
Check out this stat
August 2015 Louisiana had a civilian workforce of 2,181,200. This was at the tail end of the Jindal economy, Edwards replaced him in January of 16.
August of 2019 using the civilian workforce numbers you are bragging about, Louisiana has only 2,094,269.
In those forty eight months under Edwards, Louisiana has lost about 87,000 jobs.
In the same time frame, Alabama gained about 110,000 jobs in the same period. Lowly Mississippi gained 15,000 and they are about half our size. Arkansas gained 24,000 jobs.

Federal congressmen
Now I understand your problem. You really are uneducated. That seems to be a trend with Rispone worshipers.

LSU graduated 4,500 in May alone. Even if half stayed in the state we’ve barely maintained job growth for those 2,250. Let alone the other 4 year institutions and trade schools.

Got to appreciate Louisiana’s educated voter base. He’s a retired doctor. Vote for the Keebler Elf and enjoy your JBE

It’s past time for Abe to endorse Rispone and ask that his few remaining supporters throw their support behind Eddie.

And no those numbers don’t look good. What was the trend before and when he first took office? Just curious how much is directly as a result of him.

What we need to do is let more stupid fricks like you and the OP elect our governors. It has a track record of working out remarkable for the state.

There is too much at stake for Louisiana.
Louisiana is ranked 50th in most measures when it’s not ranked 49th. Louisiana is the only state not to gain jobs in the Trump economy.
There’s not much at stake. There’s not much to lose.
Why on earth anyone would support an incumbent like JBE is beyond me.
