The point is that Trump no longer has coattails. In other words, voters don’t care whether he endorses someone or not.

Not necessarily so.

Louisiana politics are a bizarro world and few election results can be viewed as part of a national trend.

New Orleans always votes Dem. Always has. The rest of the state can vote for the Republican, but N.O. massive voting numbers cancel everything north of Baton Rouge. The only way a Republican can win is if the N.O. voters stay home.

I'm convinced half of the N.O. voters thought they were voting for Edwin Edwards.

We know how Orleans Parish votes and when I saw the Election Day weather forecast for New Orleans, I knew Edwards would win.

New Orleans was the big factor.
