Given that Bill Clinton had carried the state twice in the 1990s, and, given a Democratic advantage in party identification, Democratic strategists felt that the Kerry/Edwards ticket could at least make the Bush- Cheney ticket spend time and valuable resources defending the state, but it was not to be. Political Context Democratic optimism in Louisiana was motivated by the fact that the party had won two closely contested statewide elections in the previous two years.
