The story I heard was that Mary Landrieu gave up her seat to Hillary, in return for the Clinton's help in her last re-election.
In other words, Hillary intimidated and threatened another Senator to get that seat.
And did it, no doubt, to beef up her resume in her run for the Presidency.

I had heard the same---giving up her Armed Services seat to Hillary was Landreu's payoff for Clinton (Bill) help in getting Landreu reelected to the Senate.

Well, it's the only way the old battle-axe could get at least some military "credentials." Hey, it's not like she went to Vietnam and scammed some medals for superficial scrapes and scratches...
