This needs a Two Bag Barf Alert!
"Hi voters. I managed to unglue my lips from Obama's
*** to be here. That's why my mouth looks so funny."
========================================================
Voters are very forgiving---but it's almost impossible to forgive a candidate who fails to recognize the impact of his/her words.
In the Chuck Todd interview Landrieu trashed Louisianans---dismissing them as nothing more than hapless "conservatives." Landrieu added: “It has not always been a good place for women, to be able to present ourselves as the leaders we are. It’s more of a conservative place. So we’ve had to work a little bit harder on that”.......meaning she had to dupe a lot of good people to get herself elected.
Odd isn't it----when Landrieu was elected and reelected multiple times---there was no racism or sexism in Louisiana. Now that she appears to be losing Landrieu suddenly discovers sexism and racism in every corner of Louisiana.
Another FReeper likened Landrieu's goofball rhetoric to California candidate---then-incumbent Gov Pat Brown---- inexplicably telling a Black audience, "Remember, an actor shot Lincoln."
Brown's opponent was Ronald Reagan who went on to win the governership by a million votes.
=========================================
CONCLUSION It's hard to say if Landrieu's desperate and deplorable tactics---vilifying and slandering her own voters--- will be enough to win her another unexpected victory in Louisiana....but she knows every trick in the book.
In 2002, Landrieu was forced into a run-off. She was under-funded and labeled the underdog. So she and her Democrat operatives mined every ghetto, housing project, crack house, ho house and Nursing Home in New Orleans for votes.....she won by a hair.
A Clinton visit usually finishes him/her off.
By getting post-Katrina funding, I presume Mrs. Willie means robbing the U.S. treasury. Nagin is in jail, the least we can do is give Landrieu the boot. Mrs. Slick Willie can go and hug her on visitation days.
The Katrina FEMA disaster was all Landrieu not Bush.
Interesting how someone with such a bad memory can remember such details regarding one little senatof from a Louisiana...

That was on Liberal Bizarro World.
Here on earth the only thing she did was point a finger at George Bush.
Really? As I recall, she sat on her fat a$$ for the days leading up to Katrina and did nothing to help evacuate people from NO. She's an idiot and the people of LA deserve better...at least someone who's not brain dead.
I remember when Ray Nagin fled New Orleans and when Governor Blanco came on television and cried and cried and cried. And I watched the live feed of Blanco’s National Guard dropping food and then fleeing before the mobs got there. And the live feeds of all the looting. Yes, oh wait, Mary was no where to be found. Another lie by Hillary
“Violence Against Women Act’’. Liberals love to make redundant laws or laws for crimes that don’t exist and then use it for political leverage against opponents. This is one of the number of reasons why I hate liberalism.
The focus should be on Mary’s failure to lead and her theft of resources before Katrina
1. NO STATE or CITY should “NEED” a member of Congress to plead for funds to rebuild after such an event as Katrina. IF they do need to do so, SHAME on the FEDS for not stepping up to the plate from the first breach of levees.
2. Giving such kudos to any Congressman is +an over-reaction. That is their job. They are to represent their state & make sure that events such as Sandy or Katrina get the Federal help needed.
3. Louisiana was given funds for years before the hurricane hit & breached the levees. WHERE did that $$$$$$ go? No satisfactory answer has ever been given.
4. Landrieu should have requested the resignation of Ray Nagin for his abysmal reactions to the trouble New Orleans was in. Letting those school buses sit idle & go under water & get trashed instead of using them to evacuate citizens can never be excused. How many tax dollars were lost because those buses were trashed with water damage? Nagin can NEVER serve enough years in jail for me. He should die there. A high school sophomore would have used those buses & saved them from destruction.
Landrieu has had enough years to screw up things for Louisiana voters. She needs permanent retirement.
While she’s there, ask hillary about her nightmarish encounter with Bosnian snipers.
“Clinton criticized a potential opponent, Gov. Bobby Jindal, for the steep cuts in higher education in Louisiana.”
Jindal has done a lot for LA education in spite of the Federal gov’t, backed by labor unions, fighting him every inch of the way.
LOL, Seriously ??
Blanco, Nagin, Jefferson, the culture of corruption among Louisiana Democrats was far and wide in the wake of Katrina.
Stalinists lie. ALWAYS
Mary Landrieu’s so-called “leadership” amounted to continuous rants that everything that went wrong was all Bush’s fault, when, very factually. MOST of what went wrong was due to incompetence, disorganization, lack of coordination and corruption at the local and state level. The people of Lousiana, much more than the national media knew and understood that; & voted out the Louisiana Governor and New Orleans Mayor when they had a chance.
