New Orleans' Newest Power Couple Also Plays
"All’s Fair in Love and Politics"
~It’s not surprising that New Orleans’ most prominent new power couple didn’t agree on the new health-care legislation during and after speaking Tuesday at Baton Rouge Community College. Opposing Democratic and Republican strategists James Carville and Mary Matalin, who married in 1993, discussed their opposing political views, but largely agreed on the topics of feminism and opportunities in Louisiana at BRCC’s “All’s Fair in Love and Politics” event during Women’s History Month.
~Editilla Hotellas~Oh Holy Mother of Zaphod Beelzebub,
Matalin was the Rovian Lush Strategist speechwrither for Dick Chaney in the Sell'Up to the Iraq War, after serving as the deputy campaign manager for political operations on George Bush's reelection campaign, overseeing operations in all 50 states, and defending the Daddy Bush's Failed One'n'Done administration.
Notably, she served in this role while mating Father of Zaphod James Carville, who was chief strategist for the Clinton campaign that beat the pants off Daddy Bush. Carville is perhaps best known for leading Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign and coining the theme, “It’s the economy, stupid.” Which is where Editilla co-opted the phrase to "IT'S THE LEVEES STUPID" to monkey-hurl at Evil Katrina Shorthand Jivers.
But really, is this New Posse of Bleuveau Riche Nola Progressives Radically Chic or What?
Zaphod Beelzebub:
Who are we waiting for again?
Zaphod: No, I'm serious.
Zaphod: I can't do this without my third arm!

If LA loses a seat -- and it probably will -- what do bet that Jindal and his minions will figure out a map that leaves NOLA with Republican reps?
