In what appears to be a significant October campaign shakeup, Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu is replacing her campaign manager and hiring her former chief of staff as a senior adviser.
The Democrat has pushed Adam Sullivan out of the manager role and replaced him with Ryan Berni, who ran her brother Mitchs reelection campaign as New Orleans mayor. Berni is a former aide to Clintonista and Louisianan James Carville.
Polls show Landrieu falling short of the 50 percent she needs to avoid a December runoff, and Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy has a slight lead in head-to-head matchups.
The Times-Picayune of New Orleans, which first reported the changes, wrote that aides would not say why Sullivan is being replaced, other than to say shes bringing in people shes comfortable with and has relied on for previous campaigns.
Former Landrieu chief of staff Norma Jane Sabiston, who worked on the three previous campaigns, is taking a leave from her consulting firm to work on the race as a senior adviser.

Berni is a former aide to Clintonista and Louisianan, James Carville.
Landrieu's chief of staff, Norma Jane Sabiston, who worked on her three previous campaigns, is taking a leave from her consulting firm, named Landrieu's "senior adviser."
CAJUN TRANSLATION: THE INFAMOUS LOUISIANA VOTE FRAUD MACHINE IS UP AND RUNNING AT MACH ONE SPEED
"Senior advisor" ---- principle job is to take names off tombstones and cast their votes for them.
Yet, Landrieu asserts that she still lives in Louisiana with her parents, saying I have lived at my home on Prieur Street most of my life and I live there now, when not fulfilling my duties in Washington or serving constituents across the state.
In a report by the Washington Post, Moon and Vernas neighbors say they havent seen Mary in years. I dont think she lives there, said Fontaine Wells, 65, pointing at the Landrieu home. She might come visit, but come on now she lives in D.C. I dont think Ive ever seen her.
Michael Fitzgerald, 61, has lived around the corner from the Landrieus for three decades. He said he sees Moon and Verna Landrieu regularly, as well as Mitch Landrieu, Marys younger brother and the citys current mayor, who lives in a home he owns nearby.
On Election Day, [Mary] is seen at our polling place accompanying her parents. He added, I have not seen her lately..... Shes been in the Senate for Ive lost count 16 years? 18 years?
===============================================
Does she vote twice?

Some observers note that the Democrat-controlled Senate passed Obamacare "after a series of unsavory transactions that purchased the aye votes of several shrewdly extortionate Democrats"....with a huge pile of money still unaccounted for.
The most unsavory was Landrieu's $4.3 billion "Louisisana Purchase."
THE PAPER TRAIL IS HUGE Sen Landrieu (Scumocrat-LA) sold her aye vote in what Forbes Magazine dubbed "The 'Louisiana Purchase" that included a massive $4.3 Billion to Landrieu
FORBES REPORTED the Democrats nailed Landrieus support for Obamacare w/ a greenback bribe. Landrieu, critics believe, pledged her vote in exchange for some $200 million more additional federal funds for Louisiana. Except that, due to a drafting error, the law ended up giving Louisiana $4.3 billion: more than twenty times the assigned amount. MORE HERE http://www.forbes.com/fdc/welcome_mjx.shtml
===============================================
BACKSTORY In the fall of 2009, Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was trying to get the necessary 60 Dimocrat votes to pass the Affordable Care Act. He needed every Dim on board, which gave waffling senators a great deal of leverage. In Landrieu's case, she connivingly saw that selling her aye vote could get her maybe $200 million federal dollars. Obama complied. Reid chalked up another vote for Obamacare. But not the measly $200 million but $4.3 billon was attached to the Obamacare bill earmarked for Landrieu.
=================================================
How $4.3 billion to Landrieu was calculatedly attached to the Obamacare bill, and how Obama and Reid failed to catch and fix it, is yet another indictment of the Obamacare atrocity.
The $4.3 billion handoff to Landrieu should be investigated as an indication of how EVERY Democrat came to vote for Obamacare....and how tax dollars were laundered to help elect more lock- stepping Democrats.
