Ray Nagin buys Dallas house, moves

Tags:

According to this interview:

Mayor Ray Nagin has purchased a home for his family in Dallas and enrolled his young daughter in school there. …[he] said he planned to return to New Orleans on Saturday. He said he will remain in the Crescent City while his family lives for the next six months in Dallas, making occasional visits to his family when possible. It’s not clear where Nagin will be living: His home along Bayou St. John suffered massive flooding, the mayor said, although he has not inspected it…

UPDATE: NOLA has since issued a correction: "Nagin renting Dallas condo, did not buy house".

    Please don't leave New Orleans Mayor Nagin…we need you now. I hope you aren't moving out to Dallas permanently. My prayers are with you good sir.

    How depictable! What is with this "lets get out of Dodge" mentality on
    the part of the mayor?. Hasn't he ever heard of the phase, "the captain
    always goes down with his ship."?

    I think it sends a very bad message to his constituents, as well as tourist and the business community. Perhaps he should step down and let a leader with vision, and the courage of their convictions assume the helm.

    What a loserand a hypocrite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
