Mayor Nagin, the inept and failed mayor of New Orleans is playing all the cards he has, and it’s just one, the race card. You see, Katrina wouldn’t have been a disaster if it had been South Beach.

The mayoral election doesn’t seem to have gotten in to the failures surrounding Katrina, but Nagin’s opponent, Mitch Landrieu, could beat on him at any time with this issue. Curiously, they both appear to be skirting the finger-pointing. Landrieu may not be the best man for the job, but he’s the guy running against Nagin.

If the voters of New Orleans reelect Nagin, then they deserve what they get. The same holds true for the Governor.
