| 5. You have to understand the Democratic party in Louisiana |

This is the state of Huey Long and Edwin Edwards. We are still fighting that rep, as we try to collect the money promised to us after Katrina. The good politicians have to seperate themselves from that a bit, and I thought Breaux was a good centrist. I'm oversimplifying, but really, he seemed to be one of the ones to have a good head on his shoulders.
