7. Hell no, Democrat, and never held elective office before
He is a REAL, REGULAR guy. Not a pomaded politico.

Poor bastard--had he gone to politician boot camp, he'd know how to fling horseshit and tell everyone it was roses.

9. Ah! I see where the confusion might have come from
From Wikipedia:

Biography

Before his election, Nagin was a member of the United States Republican Party and had little political experience; he was a vice president and general manager at Cox Communications, a cable communications company and subsidiary of Cox Enterprises. Nagin did give donations periodically to candidates, namely President George W. Bush and former Republican U.S. Representative Billy Tauzin in 1999 and 2000, as well as to Democratic U.S. Senators John Breaux and J. Bennett Johnston earlier in the decade.

Days before filing for the New Orleans Mayoral race in February 2002, Nagin switched his party registration to the United States Democratic Party, presumably in order to improve his chances of winning the race in heavily Democratic New Orleans.
