Ray Nagin Watch

Those of us in Houston, who put our shoulders to the wheel and invited our New Orleans brothers to our city last late August/early September, have a vested interest in seeing Ray Nagin (who during Katrina made Cleveland's Dennis "the Menace" Kucinich's reign of error look like the days of Fiorello LaGuardia by comparison) kicked to the curb this election day. Looks like it won't happen--not today, and not in the run-off, unless Mitch Landrieu can rally the "anyone but Nagin" forces to outnumber Nagin's "anyone but Whitey" forces.

For those who don't know, Brendan Loy's Irish Trojan blog was superb in covering first Katrina (several hours ahead of cable news) then its aftermath. Guestblogger Joy Loy's coverage is here.
