That's all you need to know.
But 97% of the national press corpse work for Obola, against the people of their states.
Glad she’s gone. Don’t feel sorry for her. The democrat party will give her a high-paying, low-effort job as a reward for her service.
Kalifornia dreamin’ . . . He’ll be co-opted before the ink on his election certification is dry.
Last week a photo of a flyer distributed in the black areas of LA claimed that everyone would lose their benefits if she were not reelected. It didn’t say “mightlose” or benefits could be re-evaluated, it just said everything would be gone, including school grants, etc. unless the targeted recipients went out to vote.
At the time that that flyer was circulated Cassidy was ahead by 24 points. Two days later he won by 12 points. Do you suppose that the flyer made the difference in results?
A reasonable guess this time as well considering that she ended up with 44% when most of the polls showed she would have trouble breaking 40%.
It is interesting that most of the night she was around 41% until it became clear she was going to lose big, then all those precincts famous for fraudulent votes finally came in and goosed her up to 44%.
ML, with her left wing politics, would be a better fit in a place like L.A.-—not LA.
I always thought she was on borrowed time representing LA in the US Senate.
What is remarkable is that she managed to hold the seat for 18 years.
Stories like that make it possible to read about the self-inflicted misery suffered by urban black without batting an eye; they consistently vote Democrat while their lots in life deteriorate.
She’s not “gone.”
She and her husband live full time in DC.
You have to figure in the fudge factor. That is a truckload of ballots for the Dem candidate in any election...see Fairfax County, Virginia.
Combine what you said with her statement that she “isn’t done” and the insinuations/spin that it was a close race.
The conclusion is that all those stops were pulled out in the final few weeks to preserve her political viability for future elections. A 20+ point thashing would be impossible to ever come back from. 12 points is a different story.
Yes, but she should keep her home in Virginia or Maryland and run from there. Hopefully, she is finished in Louisiana.
One thing to add is that I’m still not convinced there’s as much fraud as people think there is. I keep returning to that PJ Media story on the Dem’s “Catalist” voter turnout system. It really seems that they’ve perfected (for now) the ability to drag unmotivated base voters to the polls.
That, vice fraud, can explain a 50% drop in margin from the last set of polls to the actual results, given that it was a 40% turnout election.
Also, read on another thread that there were no exit polls conducted. Thats too bad, would be nice to see the demographic breakdowns.
Yeah, it’s the “marriage” part about this woman I don’t understand?!
I just can’t fathom looking across the breakfast table at that every morning!
The couple built a new home a few blocks from the capitol. He’s a real estate sales rep.

Louisiana election night: Da winnas and da loozas

1. The Democratic Party — Southern populism is officially dead. Mary Landrieu and Edwin Edwards tried to give it a last hurrah, which is ironic considering they often fought one another in their heyday. Landrieu’s legendary clout — and her undisputed record of delivering for Louisiana in hard times — was no match for the virulent anti-Obama sentiment among white voters, who have deserted the Democratic Party in droves over the past 30 years. That bodes ill for Democrats seeking higher office in the statewide elections next year. For his part, Edwards lost his relevance when he entered federal prison more than a decade ago. The doddering Silver Zipper’s pathetic race for Congress in the 6th District was less a last hurrah than a political sideshow for a fawning national media that can’t let go of their favorite clichés about our food and our politics being so spicy.
2. Mitch Landrieu — The mayor may not want to admit it, but his sister’s defeat in the Senate race means he can forget about running for governor next year. If he does run, the only thing he’ll accomplish is guaranteeing the election of David Vitter. Like his sister, Mitch Landrieu will be easily tied to Barack Obama if he tries to run statewide next year. (The President endorsed the mayor’s re-election in January and will still be president — and unpopular — next autumn.) That should make it easy for the mayor to keep his campaign promise to serve out his second term.
She managed to hold the seat for 18 years because a year or two before each election, she would start casting votes that made her appear to be more conservative. The 1st 4 1/2 to 5 years of her term, she was her true self, ultra liberal. Then when it came time for re-election and the lower information voters would finally start to pay attention, she was suddenly the “conservative democrat” senator from Louisiana. That’s why she was so arrogant when she voted for obamacare, she had just won re-election and was certain the voters would forget (by the time of the obamacare vote, she had become completely out of touch with the people she represented in Louisiana). The voters didn’t forget what she had done this time around. It didn’t work out for her this time and thank GOD she will finally be gone.
The voters finally got the message that each and every politician with a “D” after his or her name was in fact a proxy for Soetoro.
Mary never won a re-election in her life, each time the ballot boxes were stuffed from the grave yard and illegal voting. I live in Louisiana and she has been an evil pale over my state.
