Isn't James Carville, the Clinton strategist, known as 'The Ragin' Cajun?' :)

Carville is, to the best of my knowledge, an interloper. He has the outlook of a Carpet Bagger out of New Orleans. I have hung with, fought with and raised cane with the Cajuns and the Creoles and they are good, very good, people, Carville is a pretender politician and lacky for the rich.

Well, interesting; since under Bill Clinton for a while income tax soared, I'm not sure this is how the Dems would perceive James Carville, but anyway...

All of my friends in and from La. are from the southern end of the state. Many of them live in and work the swamp or offshore on the Oil Rigs and they are, most of them Dems. but not friends of him. Carville has never been the friend of the working man and that's sad because Coonies are great folks. All of my time spent working the Oil Fields was with Cajuns and they, like I said, are good people. They are not out to draw all the good out for themselves, unlike Carville, they are generous.

Wow, that looks like a great place to grow up...even if not in the big house.
