Behold: Mary Landrieu in full meltdown
Hot Air.com ^ | December 3, 2014 | Guy Benson

t’s almost the end of the line for the Mary Express, and she knows it. First, she tripled down on her ‘sexism and racism’ smear against an electorate that has entrusted her (a woman!) with 18 years in the US Senate, and that handed Gov. Bobby Jindal (whose skin is brown!) a re-election victory so comprehensive that he carried every single parish in the state. Then, she offered no comment after top aides and supporters confirmed Republicans’ principal charge against her, and exhorted partisan Democrats to vote illegally. Next, she blundered through her final debate, assailing her Republican opponent for allegedly collecting an improper pittance for his medical treatment of under-served patients (a calling card of his career as a doctor), which helpfully teed up a clean hit on her unethical use of taxpayer money to fund dozens of private jet flights. Now she’s lashing out at her own party, accusing them of abandoning her — a gripe that is not inaccurate, and a tactical decision that is not unjustified:

Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) lobbed a barb at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Tuesday, saying they effectively abandoned her after the Nov. 4 midterm election. “I am extremely disappointed in the Democratic Senatorial [Campaign] Committee. I’ve said that. You know, they just walked away from this race,” Landrieu said in response to a Washington Post question about Democratic groups mainly staying on the sidelines during the runoff. She made her remarks after a rally here just steps from City Hall…A DSCC spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

No comment? That’s cold, bro. Yesterday we highlighted a Landrieu campaign radio ad aimed primarily at black voters that asserts that the Birther-dominated Republican Party “will impeach” President Obama if Bill Cassidy beats Landrieu. They might as well have added, ‘because the Constitution dictates that impeachments of black presidents become mandatory when the opposing party controls 54, not 53, Senate seats.’ The spot asserts that Cassidy has shown Obama “so much disrespect.” What specifically do you mean by that, Senator Landrieu, since you personally approved the ad?

ummm MT @daveweigel: Landrieu, asked what Cassidy does to “disrespect the president,” says he calls him “by his last name” instead of title.

— Lachlan Markay (@lachlan) December 2, 2014

Cassidy sometimes calls President Obama, “Obama”? Disrespect, bordering on hate speech. One wonders what sort of commercial Landrieu would’ve run if Cassidy had mused aloud about assaulting the president:

President Bush faced increasingly bitter complaints today from local and state officials in the battered Gulf Coast region as he struggled to exert control over a disaster that almost surely claimed thousands of lives. Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, a Democrat, said today that she was so angry about federal failures and second-guessing that if she heard any more criticism of local efforts, even from the president, she might “punch” him.

Someone arrest this dangerous woman who disrespected Our President by threatening physical violence! I’ll leave you with a new ad from the Black Conservatives Fund, which condenses the pro-voter fraud harangue they caught on tape into a 3o second television spot:

The elder Don Cravins’ disgraceful comments are certainly worth highlighting, but I suspect the extraordinary affirmation from Landrieu chief of staff Don Cravins, Jr. that she’ll continue supporting Obama 97 percent of the time if re-elected might be the more impactful message to broadcast in the home stretch of this campaign.

Yep. I’m going 62-38. A worse drubbing than Blanche Lincoln got for voting for Obamacare.

If Joe Manchin (D-WV) was smart, he’d “quietly” switch to the GOP during the first recess in 2015 to give himself time to re-build a campaign staff for his next election. Moving the R total from 54 to 55 won’t really ‘hurt’ the D’s. It’s time for self-preservation. Even Chuckie Schumer knows that now.

Yeah, good one, full meltdown. She forgot that magic number of 57 or more to make impeachment happen.

The cowardly RINOparty could have a 75-25 advantage and they would still coward out and not impeach.

Interesting to me that the MSM always claims impeaching ole BJ was such a big mistake for Republicans yet they won the POTUS two years later...

Some out there might believe this is a trip to the African country. We who have lived in LA know this is the notorious prison in the swamps. Think ‘Cool Hand Luke’.

Thanks, FRiends! That is the one I would have posted, Charles. Upchuck - the problem is not access to my graphics - I have access to them on Photobucket and the Cloud. The problem is that with my declining fine motor skills I cannot post graphics, or much anything else, from my phone, particularly on a moving train.

Mary, when you bet the farm on Obamacare in 2009, you sealed your own fate. The people of your own state aren’t as weak-minded as you thought.

I went to see what they were saying over at DUmmie land, sadly they don’t even care, the call her a “fake democrat” (Really? she’s doing a hell of an imitation) and “shill for big oil”.

It’s more fun when they cry.
