A new radio spot supporting Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) says that Republicans will impeach President Barack Obama if her runoff opponent, Rep. Bill Cassidy (D-La.), wins.
“They have shown our president so much disrespect,” says Rep. Cedric Richmond (D-La.) in the ad, which was first reported by BuzzFeed News.
“They said he wasn’t a U.S. citizen, they even sued him — and if Cassidy wins, they will impeach him.”
The ad ends with the message that it is "[a]uthorized by Friends of Mary Landrieu, and paid for by the Democratic State Central Committee of Louisiana.” Landrieu lends her approval at the beginning of the ad.
It’s the latest salvo in the runoff, which will decide Landrieu’s political future.
With the race in its final stretch, Landrieu’s campaign has sought to capitalize on new information that indicates Cassidy might have improperly billed the state’s flagship university.
Last month, she mounted a last-ditch effort to pass a bill approving the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, but came up one vote short.
Landrieu, who chairs the Senate’s Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, has argued that her clout on energy policy makes her an asset to Louisiana. Republicans have pledged to give Cassidy a seat on the committee, when they take over the majority in January.
The longtime senator is fighting an uphill battle. Polls before Election Day indicated that once a Tea Party candidate was eliminated, Cassidy would have an edge with voters.
The runoff will be held on Dec. 6.
That’s funny right there. Her dad’s name was Moon.
It *is* funny when a Blazing Saddles reference makes absolute sense in a run-off election!
This will only help Cassidy in LA. Is Landrieu that stupid? Yeah, I guess so.
As soon as she loses tomorrow she is going to wish Obama WAS impeached about a year ago.
She’s obviously addressing the low information voters, none of whom is paying attention....
These long goodbyes are a pita. Back to the farm mary piggy.
Well, this should turn out thousands more voters for Cassidy.
BINGO---- She wants it both ways. Nice try Mary Landscrew-- it ain't gonna fly ---like a pig.
Thats awesome.. good work. LOL
I do not understand. Why would she try to help her opponent?
Sounds like a great reason to vote for Cassidy! Impeach that S.O.B!
Personally I hope they do impeach the bastard.
Landrieu is finished but we can’t be overconfident
L
mary, they can impeach/him whether or not cassidy wins.
impeachment occurs in the house, not the senate.
The Senate still doesn’t have the 66 RINO votes to kick Obama out of office, which is really what we want, even if House RINOs do impeach him.
Post 96 should indicate 67 RINO votes.
That will increase the Cassidy turnout
Besides, we want to defund ObamaCare and the Department of Education...
Really? Which Repubs are pushing impeachment?
