Here's a clip from a song by Randy Newman called "The Kingfish" that sums it up pretty well:
"Who built the highway in Baton RougeWe could use a guy like Huey Long today.
Who put up the highway and built the schools
Who looks after shitkickers like you
The Kingfish do...."Who took on the Standard Oil men
And whipped their ass,
Just like he promised he'd do?
Ain't no Standard Oil men gonna run this state,
Gonna be run by little folks like me and you."
