When you lose by 60+ percent margins, but have to control the messaging. “We do not see this as a failure," he said in a statement. “We realize how hard positive change can be to implement in a State that is conditioned for failure.” Landry is such a tool.

"A state conditioned for failure." That should be his slogan for re-election.

It's been a red state for how long? So who conditioned it for that failure?
