...Phyllis Landrieu

Landrieu? I'm sure she's not related to the rest of the Landrieu family.

Pikamax, no. The gov is Kathleen Babineaux Blanko. I think you must mean the Lt.Gov. Mitch Landrieu.

nunya bidness, Phyllis is related [aunt] by marriage to "the rest of the Landrieu family". Specifically, she is the wife of Joseph Landrieu [and the mother of ten Joseph/Phyllis Landrieu children].

Joseph's brother Moon and his wife Verna are the parents of Sen. Mary Landrieu and Lt.Gov. Mitch Landrieu [and the other seven Moon/Verna Landrieu children].
