In a conference call today, President Barack Obama endorsed Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) in her bid to win her Senate seat, which she has held for more than a decade, against Rep. Bill Cassidy (R-LA).
The endorsement will most likely serve as a burden for Landrieu, rather than an asset, as a majority of Louisiana voters do not approve of Obamas agenda and the way he has handled Obamacare or the economy.
Landrieu has spent her entire re-election avoiding Obama and his policies, which she has largely supported. Exit polling in the November Senate race, showed that there are 5 issues that Louisianians care most about.
Three of those issues involve Obama and his policies directly and Landrieus support for them. Voters have an issue with the way the economy has been sluggish, even though the President has poured tons of public money in order to jump-start the economy.
Voters also take issue with Obamacare, which Landrieu infamously cast the deciding vote for. And lastly, voters have an issue with Obama, himself. A whopping 49 percent of Louisianians who voted on Nov. 4th said they strongly disapprove of Obamas handling of the country. Another 10 percent of Louisianians said they somewhat disproved.
So, what do you think? Will Obamas endorsement of Landrieu prove to be detrimental to her campaign?
Isn’t Obola’s endorsement a little like a flea endorsing a tick to a dog?
Now there’s some black on white violence ...
Not just any fork, a pitch fork.
Landrieu: Hands Up! Don’t Shoot! Hands ... {BANG!}
Worked for the Hag in North Carolina too!
Laughable...
Makes no difference but if she happens to win it gives pundits ability to say GOP agenda was rejected.
What would be newsworthy would be McCain endorses Mary Landfill.
Do not insult Miss Piggy...she is a fine hog...sincerely K. Frog.
Unfortunately for Landrieu, while Wolf if an @$$, Maness has class and is totally supportive of the GOP nominee.

HOW MUCH IS FREEREPUBLIC WORTH TO YOU?
If you read FR a lot like me, would it shock you to wake tomorrow and not be able to read it?
Im talking to the members, but I am also talking to those who have not signed in.
I can access FR from work, but I cannot log in.
I can see the breaking news, see the responses and corrections.
I can see silly posts and zots.
I can see my FRiends talking with each other.
When I get home, I can respond and post and interact.
If you are not a FReeper, you can still donate. Just push the button.
$5.00 is perfectly acceptable.
If she really wants their vote, she’ll have to do some wrasslin, pigs, gators, bear cubs, pick one!
Landrieu will be defeated now.
For a minute there I thought she might lose.
She won’t pay the Clinton’s .5 mil so Obama’s lucky dice save the day.
You go girl!
(Be proud that Obama destroyed your namesake lick-ass family)
