Lots of "interesting" discussion of how the left could have kept Landrieu's seat...

Interesting how complicated they are trying to make it. They're just trying to avoid the truth. She lost because she supported the aca and DIDNT apologize for it. She did the opposite and basically based her campaign on it by saying vote her out if you don't like it.

I haven't gotten very far into this one. But obviously she was too far right.

Maybe she was too far right to win (rather than too far left). Or maybe she was just an unappealing candidate.

If Landrieu had been part of bringing single payer to the US and raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour, would she still have lost?

Don't think it would have mattered. She was a victim of changing demographics as much as anything else, like a Republican trying to win statewide in CA or certain other states.

Jesus those people are out of touch.

The single biggest issue with Landrieu was that the state was clearly against Obamacare and she fricked us under the patronizing "well, it is good for you and I cut us a good deal" argument.


If a state feels strongly about an issue and gets overruled by someone saying "if you don't like it, fire me", don't be surprised if her arse gets fired.

Wow, do these delusional morons know anything about Louisiana? I hope they become Democrat campaign managers.
