McCain visit to Louisiana

Sen. John McCain brought his presidential campaign to Louisiana this week traveling on his well-known bus, The Straight Talk Express. The Senator held a fund raiser in Baton Rouge at the office of former Governor Buddy Roemer with several hundred people in attendance. On the evening before, McCain had a quiet, private dinner at Commander’s Palace in New Orleans with Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal continuing the ever increasing talk throughout the state that Jindal might end up on the Republican ticket as the vice presidential candidate. Being a recovering politician myself, I could not pass up the chance to have my picture taken with the Senator in Baton Rouge as you can see below. Joining me in visiting with the Senator is my brother-in-law, Republican Representative Steve Carter from Baton Rouge.
