New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin may run for Governor

[RBH]

The only benefit to Nagin running is that he might raise turnout enough to keep Jindal under 50%

No way in hell Nagin gets second.

Right now, we could have a weirdass primary election that goes like this

Jindal: 48%
Campbell: 17%
Nagin: 16%
Boasso: 14%
Other: 5%

[Nagin] seems like he'd be a good lieutenant governor, because in Louisiana the LG spends most of his time promoting the state

Wouldn't you need to zap most of the world with an amnesia gun in order to pull off putting the Mayor of New Orleans as the Lt. Governor?

I don't think the guy who made the Chocolate City comment is going to be accepted as an ambassador for Louisiana.

If there was an opening in the Lt. Gov job and using your criteria..

John Goodman for Lt. Governor!
