In his diary last Thursday, Rob broke the news that troubled incumbent Gov. Kathleen Blanco vowed to run even if former Sen. John Breaux (D) entered the race. Breaux, a strong backer of her 2003 bid, issued a statement of support, saying that she's "earned the right to run for re-election". At the time, we speculated that this was Breaux's way of pulling back from a potential run while allowing Blanco to save face.
However, louisianagirl brings us something pretty eyebrow-raising: a John Breaux For Governor shell website. It's bare bones right now, and we can't even be sure if it's legitimate, although it looks pretty good for what it is.
It's not much, but it's enough to stir the embers under the LA-Gov rumor kettle yet again.
