Inevitable? There was really nothing Mary Landrieu could do
By Robert Mann
Imagine that Sen. Mary Landrieu had run a perfect re-election campaign. Imagine that she had offered a sustained, effective defense of the Affordable Care Act and her vote for it.
Imagine that she had recognized early that building a campaign around her clout and seniority was a weak argument for her re-election. Imagine she hadnt wasted the first two weeks of her runoff period pursuing the rainbow that was the Keystone pipeline.
Imagine that Democratic operatives had persuaded the news media to write about Rep. Bill Cassidys questionable financial arrangement with LSU in October, instead of late November. Imagine Landrieu had all the money she needed for her runoff.
In other words, imagine Landrieu ran a textbook campaign. If so, could she have won re-election?
The answer, I suspect, is no. Landrieu didnt lose re-election because she was a bad candidate. She certainly didnt lose because Cassidy was a better candidate. She didnt lose because she was outspent or because Washington, D.C., Democratic leaders abandoned her. It wasnt her message or even the messenger.
Mary Landrieu lost because Louisiana is now, almost completely, a Republican state. In fact, as one political scientist told me the other day, maybe Landrieus re-election in 2008 over John Kennedy was a fluke. Maybe it wasnt that Landrieu was such a formidable candidate, but that Kennedy was such a flawed candidate that he delayed her inevitable defeat by six years. All this time, we thought she was a masterful politician, the Houdini of Louisiana politics, usually under water but always bursting free of her chains just before she drowned.

<><> Democrats control votes in gangland strongholds, sleazy Hollywood motels, Indian reservations, pineapple plantations, Boston beaneries, coastal clam shacks and surf shops.
you forgot democrats control practically all blacks, immigrants , illegals and most minorities.
96% of blacks in new Orleans voted for Democrat Mary Landrue yesterday. this is amazing , 96%. they are totally brainwashed to believe a false reality that socialism works.
Republicans were hired to stop Obama and the democrats .
that’s what Republicans have done since 1994 when Republicans finally gained a majority in the House, stop amnesty, stop hillary care, stop gun control, stop higher taxes, stop global warming regime , stop full socialism/collectivism etc.
only major thing that got through was Obamacare but that passed when Republicans lost the House in 2006 to 2008. all democrats voted to pass obamacare. all republicans voted to stop obamacare
This thread “wins the internet”...
Oh that comes under a new category I just added -- "landfill."
I just saw a copy of that book 2 days ago in a used book store.
I was livid the first time I saw it a few years ago. Two days ago I laughed out loud. Carville will have to write a follow-up with a wastebasket on his head for the cover.
Book is 6 years old? My, how time flies....
Bump!
Well, we better be careful, because if the Republicans don’t do much better than before, aka Bush redux, we’ll be turning everything back over to the Democrats in 4 to 6 years.
Easily solved.
New Congress must DownSize DC! Force closure of entire Rogue/Unconstitutional Departments, including their SWAT Teams. Eliminate the habitat for the Leftist Leeches to dig in. Send them to the unemployment line.
The next 2 years will be about guilting republicans into believing the upcoming race war wad their fault. IMHO this is to prepare for the rats taking back governorships.
If the republicans were smart. They would put together a coalition of black and Hispanic ministers and preachers and start talking about that 3 letter word...JOBS. Also, start talking about race relations, but in doing so, make Sharpton and friends pariahs. I would go with billboards that say, “Sharpton wears Armani. You wear Orange prison attire. Why?”
Love it-—LOL.
Well, whatever they “said”...it made O throw up in his mouth.
With a lapdog GOP House and Senate, Barry will continue apace transforming America. I don’t think he’s suffering any ill effects from the election at all.
Now, Shelly deciding not to leave him after his second term is up...
Re your #4; that sore throat might be the results of Reggie consoleing the Zero.
Beautiful.
Yes, yes, but just not good enough.
