Quote: |
The people of New Orleans have re-elected Mayor Ray Nagin to guide their city through its continued recovery from Hurricane Katrina. Nagin's new term begins May 31, one day before the opening of a new hurricane season. Political analyst Greg Rigamer talks to Debbie Elliott about Nagin's victory and the direction he plans to steer the city. |

Nagin was a Republican until right before he decided to run for mayor of New Orleans. |

i met him this past winter. it was my wife's first trip to the states, and her first day in new orleans. he was just hanging around outside in jackson square. i guess it's the nature of the politician, but he seemed really cool and good-natured for all that had happened. this is a picture of him and my wife. a week later i found out that my uncle plays golf with him, and he confirmed that nagin is an all around nice guy. of course... the week after that was when he came out with the 'chocolate city' comment.
i really don't like politics at all, but it was fun to meet a celebrity.
