Until now, the only Democrat allowed to cozy up with GOP superstar strategist Mary Matalin was her husband, political consultant James Carville.

My support for Mitch (Landrieu) has nothing to do with his party,' Mary Matalin said.

But it looks like another member of the opposition has won a bit of Matalin's heart. According to an invitation circulating this week, Matalin is slated to co-host an upcoming $1,000-a-person fundraiser in Washington for Lt. Gov Mitch Landrieu.

Matalin, who has spent time in the White House as an assistant to former President George W. Bush and counselor to former Vice President Dick Cheney, will be standing shoulder-to-shoulder with some legendary Louisiana Democrats.

Along with Carville, the invitation for the Wednesday night event lists Landrieu's sister, U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, and two former Louisiana senators who have gone on to careers as lobbyists: John Breaux and J. Bennett Johnston.

Shouldn’t she be at home measuring Gumbo Jimbo’s p****?

I’ve had a bad gut feeling about that wench since 1992... I hate when I’m right about such matters.

Just goes to show you; if you hang around with pigs, sooner or later you’re going to stink.

Sad but inevitable. Once you jump in bed with the likes of a james carville, you've entered alien lands, whence you don't come back.

Appropriate image. I watched Mitch Landrieu launch a vicious and fabricated attack on Donald Mintz during a run for mayor of New Orleans. The attack was initiated at Loyola University of New Orleans.

Mitch Landrieu is a viper of the lowest reptilian order. He was also a useless ornamental politician in the aftermath of Katrina.

One who could copulate with James Carville is capable of anything though. MM has a particular thing for serpents, apparently.

I had to laugh today, thinking of an image of Mary Matalin receiving dozens of micrometers in the mail...

As I was reading this, I kept thinking of what my father used to say:

You follow a fly and it will take you to sh*t.

She was feeding inside info to the Clinton campaign in 92.I never could see why a top Bush aide would just marry Carville out of the blue after the election with the we just met over the summer and fell in love story dosen't pass the smell test.Nope she was a plant and I'm sure was feeding inside info to the media and the dems while she worked for Cheney too.

Hm...I think electron microscopes are very expensive...

And yada, yada, yada.

Mary Mata Hari can go spit. I dont trust a Republican that gets in bed with a Democrat like that right after the election.

[9YearLurker]

I think it may be a good thing that she’s revealing herself here as much as she is.

[packrat35]

I’ve never trusted her since I fought out she was seeing Carville.

Anybody who thought Mary could live with a virulent disease and not catch it raise your hand.

That’s what I though.
