Here's my attempt at LA, though its pretty ugly.

This map could defeat up to 4 incumbents.




CD1- This goes from 71% McCain to only 57%; mayor Landrieu is popular, so he could have a chance of beating Scalise in a good year.

CD2- This district becomes even more Baton Rouge-oriented, so Richmond could draw a tough primary opponent from there. Its 56% black VAP.

CD3- Boustany's district was split into 4 parts, the plurality of his old 7th is here. However, unlike in real life, Landry would have the advantage in the jungle primary.

CD4/5- CD5 now becomes 51% Obama down from 62% McCain; it also has a 55% D average. I'm guessing Alexander would either retire or challenge Flemming in the 72% McCain CD4.

CD6- Cassidy remains pretty safe. He still has a good base here and this CD6 is 74% McCain.
