It looks like the daughter of the corrupt mayor of New Orleans might be terrified at the thought of a Republican being in the position to have law enforcement take a good hard look at the corruption in New Orleans. If she does, then a whole bunch of people get to go to jail

If I were Terrell, I would not take this lightly, and would have my bodyguards be extra careful

the NEW Mayor of New Orleans, Nagel, a Dem and political neophyte is actually working to clean up what has been termed "GENERATIONS of corruption" .. more power to him !!!

corrupt mayor of New Orleans

Actually I do not know if Maurice "Moon" Landrieu was corrupt. If he were corrupt, would GA Jimmy, the saint, have put him in his Cabient at HUD? Moon was just ultraliberal before ultraliberal was cool in LA Democrat circles. A predecessor to Landrieu was the Democrat Mayor de Lesseps S. "Chep" Morrison. He was considered very liberal in the context of the 1950s and early 1960s. Today, were he living, Morrison (an early supporter of JFK and LBJ) would probably be a "conservative" Democrat. That's how far the LA (like the TX) "democracy" has moved to the left. But I have no knowledge of corrupt practices by ex-Mayor Landrieu. Maybe, but I don't know. It may be too that Landrieu was the last white man to be mayor of New Orleans; so he could be what is sometimes called a "transitional figure" in LA politics.
