Liberal Lindy Boggs was elected to Congress in the spring of 1973, after the death of her husband T. Hale Boggs, then a House Democrat leader, in a plane crash over Alaska. When she retired, her seat went to the black liberal Democrat William Jefferson, who now wishes to head the House Democrat Reelection Committee. Mrs. Boggs is the mother of D.C. lobbyist Thomas "Tommy" Boggs, former ABC "This Week" co-host Cokie Boggs Roberts, and the late Barbara Sigmund, who was a Democrat mayor in NJ prior to her death from cancer. She is the LA Democrat equivalent to TX's Lady Bird Johnson.

And with the Democrats' view on abortion, SHE was the ambassador to the Vatican? Sheesh! What a slap in the face to the Catholics. (Yet another group that seems to be stuck on the Dem plantation. . .)

Looks like these people are long-time supporters of the Party of slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, the poll tax, and The Democratic WHITE Primary.

Like this is a surprise? I wonder how many have been holding their breaths with anticipation awaiting this unexpected endorsement....and how many current voters even know who this woman is.

Is it just me, or is Mary Landrieu really dumber than a bag of hammers? Every time I see or hear this woman, it's simply embarassing---how in the world did such an unpolished, inarticulate BOZO end up in the Senate?

Hmmmmmmmmmm: Lindy Boggs endorse Mary Landrieu-does that actually mean anything?
