What could Landrieu have done to go further right?
Buy a coal-burning truck and demand that Obama re-institute child labor through an executive order? Dig up FDR's corpse and paint "Social Security Sucks!!!" on it?

It's pretty @$!#ing clear: we win by being Democrats, not Republicans.

The repercussions of Obamacare are felt far and wide, clearly voting for that had nothing to do with her loss

36. Well, becuse there was only one more liberal democrat on the ballot

One who got no debate time. Who was not featured in polls on the subject who is essentially a long-shot liberal Democrat running agaisnt a connected, funded, party-supported pair of republicans.

Clearly those wealthy Republicans were helping her

How about running a black candidate? How about running someone likeable with energy and who doesn't look like they're just in it to be a lifelong politician? How about a Democrat that actually votes for a Democratic president? If she admitted she didn't vote for Obama then why is she a Democrat AT ALL?

There are many answers but there is one we know: running to the right doesn't get your base to run out and vote for you. LOW VOTER TURNOUT loses midterm elections for Democrats. How about running a candidate that gets Democrats to vote and quit worrying about right wingers?
That be racist yo

25. It's amusing how the more liberal person loses to the conservative.

And that's proof that the person wasn't liberal enough so the people chose the conservative.

It's pretzel logic at its finest.

Didn't she support O'bama 97% of the time?  Sounds like she was so far left it would need a new designation.

Well. That IS the mantra at DU. Never liberal enough.
It seems only people with insane post counts can speak truth to DUmmies. and even then they get snark instead of discussion.

Still, there's a core truth in the Commie's post.  The Democrat candidate was from one of the most connected political-class families in Louisiana, which was not winning any hearts and minds among the strain of redistribution-hungry Populists upon whom they increasingly rely, nor could she play the race card to get that advantage in lieu of getting the Socialists out in force.

Here's a DUmmy with a theory on why Landrieu's doughy ass got handed to her or maybe he's just saying that he's not going to miss her now that she's going away:

Good riddance, Mary Landrieu


Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) slipped and told a radio host that she did not vote for President Obama, The Hill reports.

Said Landrieu: “I voted for the Affordable Care Act, I did not vote for Obama.”

Though after further reflection the DUmmy deleted his post for some reason.

When I first heard this quote I automatically assumed it was suppose to emphasize how much faith Landrieu had in the ACA.  Only an idiot, or someone who posts at DU on purpose, would believe Mary Landrieu actually voted for Mitt Romney.

Hey, snark is the name of the game here. Has nothing to do with "he men" or being in the middle of the road.  Finding the satire and irony in Dummy posts is both entertaining and shows up their duplicitous beliefs.

Who's "middle of the road"?

All you'll find in the middle of the road are yellow stripes and road kill.

The libs would say in Landrieu's (and owebuma's) defense that owebuma is conservative.

What Mary really needed to do to prove her far-left cred was to fly over to Moscow and do some ballroom dancing with Lenin's corpse, much like some Tom Petty music video.

Unbelievable hate threads about Landrieu at the DUmp today.

They suddenly hate her as much as they hate Joe Lieberman or Zell Miller.

It reminds me of how Josef Stalin had Russian POWs executed when they returned home after WWII.
