Disaster electioneering
Not that our post-Katrina world is lit up with campaign advertising. At least not yet. But Sugar Ray Nagin comes up for re-election in February, just in time for Mardi Gras. One wonders what kind of attire he’ll put on. Friend of business? Cleaner-upper of corruption? Low-key leader in a catastrophe? I’d love to know the strategy. Likely, we’ll be hearing at least some rehashes of his “get off your asses” eruption.
The T-P mentions Mitch “You Know My Name” Landrieu getting in the race in this article.
I’m not taking sides in all this yet. But I guarantee it’s gonna be highly entertaining.
