Mary Landrieu hasn’t received one donation from outside groups this past week for runoff election
Capitol City Project ^ | November 12, 2014 | Joe Schoffstall

Six days ago, it was reported the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee wouldn’t be lending any more support to Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) leading up to her December 6 runoff election against Republican opponent Bill Cassidy, as the DSCC has canceled its advertising reservations in the state. However, it appears that her problems extend well beyond them, as even more outside groups have appeared to jump ship — at least for the time being.

FEC filings from the past week show that the sitting senator hasn’t received one independent donation from any outside group either in support of her re-election or opposing Cassidy. In fact, every independent committee or PAC donation went in support of her Republican challenger or into opposing her in the runoff election.

I’m starting to think there’s going to be a concession over the Thanksgiving holiday on this one. She’s not going to put her own money into this race.

How do you solve a problem like Landrieu?
How do you stop a Gravy Boat from tipping?

If she’s smart, she won’t put another dime into her sinking campaign.

The Democrats are going to join the Republicans to pass approval of Keystone over Obola’s veto, and that’s somehow going to help Miss Piggy. At least that’s what I heard earlier today.

She has a future in community theater. Maybe even town council.

Landrieu Off the Air
By Walter Abbott

The shutoff of Mary Landrieu’s ad money has taken its toll. TV advertisements for Landrieu are almost nonexistent compared to ads for Bill Cassidy.

Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu’s re-election race is truly running out of air: She’s responsible for a mere 4 percent of all TV spots in the week-old Louisiana runoff. Republican challenger Bill Cassidy and his friends paid for 96 percent of the spots that have run so far.

Ok... I’ll bite. How in Sam Hill is that going to help her campaign? I mean Cassidy was for the pipe line from day one...She and Harry Reid and company have had 6 years to pass this, plus Obama is going to veto it anyway....

Would love to see them pass this.

There were 4 Republicans, 3 Democrats & a Librarian in the Nov 4 election.

The Republican vote was split, the Democrat not so much.

She's toast!

..well maybe that's a Libertarian. hehe

Amen.

I hope Conservatives/Republicans don’t think this a sure thing and stay home only to awake and find out she won
