    My brother goes to Tulane. So I’ll be there a few times over the next four years. Might be there in spring, too.

    When I went there it was the day of the primaries and it was insane. Billboard-sized signs everywhere (even on Bourbon Street!) and all the public lands looked like sign farms.

    Naturally,most black contituents are breaking Cazayoux’s way, because he is the incumbent democrat–but Michaek Jackson will be helped by Obama upticket.

    Im in Baton Rouge, right off campus of LSU.

    Why were you in NO?

    Apparently, most of the black constituents are going for the Democrat and it’s really hurting Jackson.

    Trent – where in Louisiana are you? I was in New Orleans a few weeks ago.

    Michael Jackson is fairly well known in the district as a state representative,and particularly popular amongst liberal and black constituents.

    I truly wonder how much of his support can be attributed to his campaigning and not just his name.

    Has he been targeting underaged males for support?
