If you haven't been accused of or charged with some sort of corruption, married into a family who can boast someone who has, stabbed someone in the back (metaphorically or otherwise) for political gain, or - at the very least - bribed or blackmailed someone, you just ain't gonna make it in Louisiana politics, local or state.
It's not just Raymond Reggie, check out The Dead Pelican for more of the wondrous blissful ignorance that runs (excuse, me... GAMES) Louisiana, from the smallest town to the largest state department.
But, at least we don't discriminate. Anybody can be a political crook here - Democrat, Republican, black, white... at least we've got that going for us.

UPDATE: To find out why Louisiana corruption isn't worthy of screaming headlines nationally, see Vodkapundit & The Sundries Shack. Then see Riehl World View for background on the Reggie family. See The Shreveport Times for full coverage close to home. Oh wait... you didn't find anything there either? Maybe by this time tomorrow, they'll find time to cover it.
