Landrieu ‘extremely disappointed’ with DSCC
The Washington Post ^ | December 2, 2014 | Sean Sullivan

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) lobbed a barb at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Tuesday, saying they effectively abandoned her after the Nov. 4 midterm election.

"I am extremely disappointed in the Democratic Senatorial [Campaign] Committee. I've said that. You know, they just walked away from this race," Landrieu said in response to a Washington Post question about Democratic groups mainly staying on the sidelines during the runoff. She made her remarks after a rally here just steps from City Hall.

The DSCC canceled its television ad reservations shortly after the Nov. 4 midterm election in which Democrats lost control of the Senate.

Landrieu advanced to a runoff against Rep. Bill Cassidy (R) in the Nov. 4 all-party primary. Save for limited ad buys from a handful of groups totaling about $216,000, Landrieu has had to face millions of dollars worth of pro-Cassidy ads on her own. The National Republican Senatorial Committee alone is on pace to spend more than $1.4 million on ads, records show.

A DSCC spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Why would they help her?

She’s gonna lose and there’s no use throwing good money after bad.

Mary Loser thinks more money will give her a fighting chance. The DSCC is rightly giving her the cold shoulder.

It would have been a waste of money. She already owns all the votes south of Alexandria and her prospects in north La. are minimal.

Most Americans are disappointed in you for taking the ‘Louisiana Purchase’ bribe to vote for Obamacare.

Exactly. Two Republicans ran, the other one was a stalking goat to split the conservative vote to see if Landrieu could win outright. Didn’t work so they know she’s toast. Seems she’s the only one that doesn’t realize that she’s lost already.

Hast to really stick to her hide though, winning the plurality only to lose in a run-off.

Expect another stalking goat for the President ... the Clinton’s will run the same game plan as they did with Ross Perot.

Porky Landreau’s victory had importance to the democrat leadership in the context of maintaining a majority in the senate.

Once they were steamrollered back into minority status the outcome of her election lost its significance in that regard.

Typical Demonic Party scum... always complaining that there’s never enough of other people’s money to finance their political perversions - in this case, her continued worthless presence in the Senate. Buh Bye...

If she thinks she could pick up some votes, she will.
