In comments sure to cascade into regional races across the South, embattled Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) told NBC's Chuck Todd on Thursday that Southern racism is to blame for President Barack Obama's unpopularity.
"Why does President Obama have a hard time in Louisiana?" asked Todd.
Let me be very, very honest with you," said Landrieu. "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."
Landrieu added: It has not always been a good place for women, to be able to present ourselves. Its more of a conservative place. So weve had to work a little bit harder on that. But, you know, the people trust me, I believe. Really, they do.
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal blasted Landrieu's comments as desperate and out of touch.
"She appears to be living in a different century. Implied in her comments is the clear suggestion that President Obama and his policies are unpopular in Louisiana because of his ethnicity," said Jindal. "That is a major insult by Senator Landrieu to the people of Louisiana, and I flatly reject it."

Or, when questioned: "I'm glad you asked."
They are never glad you asked.
Translation: Obama is SO perfect it is impossible to dislike him for ANY reason other than race. He is a faultless,perfect human being. His blackness protects him from all human faults-basically, he’s infallible. Right???
I SOOOO want this woman and those like her GONE...but I have a feeling she’s going back in. The stupid is strong in Louisiana elections.
They’re all pushing the race issue.....making it appear they are sympathetic to blacks for their votes.
Mary Landrieu Blames that black guy at the White House ?
The left has over played the race card for years it’s a non issue to the informed.
Mary is a fat super liberal who doesn’t even live in Louisiana.
Her parents basement? The state is underwater. There are no basements here.
She told the first election she won form the Senate (9th Ward results came in an hour later than the rest of the state and that’s where she stole it).
Glad to see her go and as many other Rats we can knock off the sinking Obama ship.
“You know you are about to be fed a shovel full of bullsh*t when a RAT starts out with, “Let me be very, very honest with you”. “
Yeah, and the other one is “this is going to be the most honest and open administration in the country’s history!”
And of course that “universal warning:” “It’s only a cold sore”
“Her parents basement? The state is underwater. There are no basements here.”
She is a slimy, commie, grifter amphibian that is perfectly capable of surviving and thriving in a wet, dark crawlspace feasting on roaches, crickets and black mould.
Everything is because of racism.. just like their precious global warming excuses.
Agreed!
