Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Louisiana electorate.

Perhaps poll tests do need to be implemented again.

What economic policies of JBE’s first term and the upcoming term were you or are most excited for?

Not Jindal is all he said. He certainly couldn't have ran on his record.

I pulled the lever for Rispone, but had reservations due to his complete lack of a plan and having a hangover from the Jindal years. What drove me away from Edwards was lack of commitment to reverse the sales tax increase once the budget was balanced, and additionally the lunacy that is now the national Democratic Party.

Here's what he did that I like. If he had an R by his name I would have voted Edwards.

-Balanced Budget doing what was unpopular but necessary (tax raise). I'm conservative and wish to cut the fat as well, but not at the expense of state credit rating, or backing the selloff of taxpayer assets to cover deficiencies. We must shrink the state gov't, but a constitutional convention is the only way. Had Rispone had a more detailed plan to do this, he would have likely won.

-Legislation passed and signed to shorten sentences for nonviolent offenders. (taxpayer savings)

-Pay raise for teachers. Long overdue although not enough. In current fiscal conditions it is easy to understand why.

-Signed two pro-life bills including the widely popular conservative "fetal heartbeat" bill.

-Cutting the LA uninsured rate in half with the Medicaid expansion, which insures 500k Louisiana residents at this time. I'll admit there are abuses happening that I want to eliminate, and the JBE team is working to do that. But Louisiana is only footing the bill for 10% of the cost at maximum, and it is overall helping our economy and population. Political ideology aside, this is a win for Louisiana. The abuse must be curtailed however.

edited to add that I'm more of a Populist, instead of conservative. I zig-zag in and out of both sides of the aisle on different issues.

The one where we spend $20m to get our own info unencrypted by hackers?

It was Rispones turn!
