It's Over: DSCC Pulls Ads For Mary Landrieu in Louisiana Run-Off

After Republicans easily clinched a Senate majority on Tuesday night, we knew the run-off election in Louisiana wouldn't go well for Democrat Mary Landrieu against her Republican opponent Bill Cassidy and now, it just got a lot worse. POLITICO is reporting the DSCC has pulled funding for television advertising in the state.

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is canceling at least some of its advertising reservations for Sen. Mary Landrieu ahead of the December runoff in Louisiana.

The committee canceled buys planned from Monday through December 6 in the Lafayette, Baton Rouge and New Orleans markets, three sources tracking the air war told POLITICO.

It makes no sense for Democrats to further invest resources in a race that Landrieu will not only likely lose in December, but a race that no longer means anything when it comes to Democrat control and power in the Senate.

Good move, DSCC.

I'll leave you with this from uber liberal Markos Moulitsas:

Wow. They’re cutting off the spending even before the runoff campaign begins. Speaks volumes.

Mark Moulitsas has common sense.

Mary Loser should save the taxpayers of Louisiana money and give her seat to Cassidy.

But she won’t because its all about her. But isn’t that true of Democrats?

Yep. They've pulled the plug. I hate to read this, as I would LOVE to see dimocratic donors pour more millions into this hopeless cause.

I'm almost expecting her to concede before the runoff election.

It’s a cold blooded business. Even if she could win it wouldn’t make a difference. Why waste the money?

Landrieu got 83% of the vote in Orleans parish and *still* only managed 42% statewide. The DSCC would be wise to some triage here.
