Come January, the GOP will control every elected statewide office in Louisiana after Republicans swept three runoff races for attorney general, secretary of state and treasurer Saturday night.
The GOP success, in a state that has had a Democrat in the governor’s office for the past eight years, means that Republicans secured all of Louisiana’s statewide offices for the first time since 2015. In addition, the GOP holds a two-third supermajority in the House and Senate.
Liz Murrill was elected as attorney general, Nancy Landry as secretary of state and John Fleming as treasurer. The results also mean Louisiana will have its first female attorney general and first woman elected as secretary of state.
Saturday’s election completes the shaping of Louisiana’s executive branch, where most incumbents didn’t seek reelection and opened the door for new leadership in some of the most powerful positions.
Clinton huh? Obama…care…? Modelled off Romney(®)care? The ACA never happened? That was a pretty big deal. I don’t agree with it but none the less, you’re categorically, empirically wrong.
Go to wiki. Reassess your knowledge base. Milton Friedman. You want to start there.
Clinton was pushing a series of policies derided as “Hillary Care” in 1993.

She then, in 2004, put forth the basis for her more comprehensive plan, which by 08 became her health care proposal in the 2008 primary.
It’s neat what you learn when you’re born before the year 2000.
Well shit, I was born in 81 whatdya know. I fucking graduated before 2000, you ain’t got any footing there. You wanna talk about Jnco’s? No Fear shirts? Matt Shepard being drug behind a truck and tied to a fence to die? What were you doin when news of Cobain came out? Shit my first concert was Rage Against the Machine in 96. Fucking good times.
And I knew all that, but all of that means fuckall. She was First lady, then ran for senator of NY, then secretary of state in 2012. But soooo what. What power did she really have?
Who gives a shit what HRC was trying to whip support of while first lady. She couldn’t get the support, but fuck her for trying right? I’m not even a democrat, or a fan of Democrats, but I won’t knock Americans for trying to help Americans. Even if I disagree with their direction. Motive is important, whole different kinds of laws come into play around it. I don’t think anyone ever questioned HRCs patriotism. Hard to argue with the optics of the zero dark thirty war room. She didn’t openly call for foreign aid attacking opponents in a political campaign, in and of itself is sedition. Was she a bitch? Probably. Given a choice of a leader who is a bitch vs say Mrs Butterworth, I’ll take the bitch, thanks. For fucks sake, you people are impossible. Move to the south and secede. I’ll stay in the NW and even vote to pay for your move.
Literally always.
