For the last several years, New Orleans has been working to bill itself to the movie industry as the “Hollywood South.” Yet with a wide-open mayor’s race to replace the term-limited and oft-investigated C. Ray Nagin on the horizon for next February, New Orleans might be bringing an unwanted side effect from its California courtship: celebrity-driven circus elections.
New Orleans’ slow recovery process has been nothing short of an absurd tragedy. Big business has been given the red-carpet treatment while basic social services are tossed to the cutting room floor.
And now with its 2010 mayoral elections, post-Katrina New Orleans is holding an open-casting call. Will an A-lister sacrifice a luxurious lifestyle to stay on-location for four challenging years? Or is this the role that only an undiscovered no-name can play?
Let’s take a look at some headshots:
1. Karen Carter Peterson
You may remember the current speaker pro tem of the Louisiana legislature from such losing electoral efforts as her embarrassing 2006 defeat at the hands of then-indicted and now-convicted former Congressman “Dollar” Bill Jefferson. Nonetheless, she has a big network of potential donors to tap and hails from one of the only political machines still-standing after Katrina and a series of indictments took out the others. An undeclared candidate, she could just as easily opt to take another crack at the Louisiana second Congressional seat.
Pros: Experience, electoral machine, citywide name recognition
Cons: Experience, electoral machine, citywide name recognition
Odds: 10-1

I'm a native chick...6 generations strong! I'm currently living in Dallas--and I'm ready to come home, now that I know that "Balderman Davis" Nagin is leaving! It could take a while, but I'll be home soon (I pray)!
As for who should be running New Orleans? I don't have faith in Brad Pitt's leadership skills. Macro-managing a municipal government is equivalent to volunteering for having a migraine/ulcer/aneurysm for the rest of your life...I guess that's why we have lame-brained jokers as leaders (they don't feel things like we mere mortals do)! All I want to see for my city is a REAL leadership contingent focused on developing and implementing policies that deliver citizen-driven, citizen-centered, and citizen-profitable GREATNESS! Make it happen, my fellow citizens!
Later, Lovelies!
Anyone would have to be better than Nagin, good grief. Get someone who can get N.O. put back together again, and I might visit - although after David Duke got elected somehow years ago, I swore I'd never, ever, go to Louisiana. We'll see.
