U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu: Strongly implying that people of her home state are both racist and sexist

On this Halloween, U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA) played a nasty trick on the voters of Louisiana. She reiterated the ignorant and inaccurate stereotypes of Louisiana and the South by strongly implying that people of her home state are both racist and sexist.

In response to a question from Chuck Todd of NBC News about why the President is not popular in Louisiana, Landrieu said, “The South has not always been the friendliest place for African-Americans. It’s been a difficult time for the President to present himself in a very positive light as a leader. It’s not always been a good place for women to present ourselves. It’s more of a conservative place. So we’ve had to work a little bit harder.”

She didn’t just smear Louisianans, but all Southerners. Of course her smear was directed at white Southerners only.

So she just embarrassed herself by trying to belittle most of the population of Louisiana. Yeah, that’s one way to get someone to vote your way, call them a racist and sexist. Fearmongering and hatred is all they have left
