Fortunately she looks set for a humiliating defeat. Good riddance, too.

Landrieu is a corrupt, right-wing Democrat like all "Blue Dogs". She's an embarrassing hack who has no business being a member of the Senate. Hopefully (and it's looking more likely) she'll lose by a decent margin.

Congratulations, Senator Cassidy! Smiley

You're supporting Cassidy because Landrieu is too right-wing?

Yes, obviously. Huh If you're going to elect a Republican you might as well elect one who actually has the party label.

The weird things is that Atlas loves Mary Landrieu and Mark Pryor but hate Blanche Lincoln when there's no significant difference between the three useless Blue Dogs.

I do like that I made the "Mary" rather than "Mark" typo, furthering the implication that all three are basically Blanche Lincoln.

Landrieu, yes. Pryor? Where were you months ago, when half of the Red Avatars here refused to endorse Pryor? So many people were going on about how he was doomed, and they were glad.


Oakvale doesn't seem concerned with reality, just with making ignorant declarations about forum consensus.

Sorry, I look forward to my own whiny PM about how you demand respect.


Globally what Badgate has said. There isn't a single thing that he has said that is true. Landrieu isn't Pryor or Lincoln. Pryor is badly hated on this forum. Landrieu isn't a useless blue dog.


And come on Oavale, stop being a fake leftist.
You're not a progressive, you're pro right to work, you're pro Reagan tax cuts, you seem to oppose minimum wage increase. Except on Keystone, she's more progressive than you.

A) "Right to work" is a position that's only right-wing in an American context. I really don't see what's remotely conservative about not forcing people to join labour unions. B) I'm pro some Reagan tax cuts. I'm not actually a believer in trickle-down nonsense. C) I don't oppose the minimum wage increase. I think the minimum wage in the United States is too low. What I would oppose is doubling it by raising it to $15 overnight.

I don't know if I'm "progressive" or whatever. I'm a left-winger who thinks that markets do a better job than government in 99% of cases. That's hardly a controversial position.

e: Of course I don't have an "ideology" or whatever because I'm not a politician, but right-wing policies are generally worse than left-wing policies, although the Left per se is more annoying than the Right.
