I voted in the primary, but not in the runoff. I just couldn't stand Rispone and his attacks on Abraham and even some of his attacks on Edwards.
The bottom line is while Edwards wasn't great, I would feel better about the country if there were more Democrats like him. Rispone called him a radical liberal on many occasions, but he is as moderate as they come. I like Edwards better than any of the current Dem presidential candidates.
Rispone did what he needed to do to win the primary, but unfortunately his scorched earth campaign against Abraham alienated too many of his supporters. Had he focused on policy in the primary and left the attacks for JBE maybe things would have been different. Who knows.
I hate that they tried to make it about Trump also. The Louisiana governor has nothing to do with impeachment. I'm also not going to punish JBE for something he has no control over. Not to say he does or doesn't support what is going on now, but he doesn't have any active part in it so I'm not going to vote against him just because I don't like what Nancy Pelosi or Adam Schiff are doing. I would happily replace one of those two with JBE and instantly make the Country a better place.
The Louisiana GOP has a history of shitting the bed when it comes to candidates for Governor. We kept the tradition alive this time.
