[Cicero]

The only reason Landrieu won the last election was that she posed as a pro-lifer. Then she immediately started voting for abortion.

I wonder if Kennedy pushed that angle at all? Louisiana is corrupt, no doubt, but there is a substantial pro-life majority that the Democrats have to treat very gingerly.

Unfortunately, the Country Clubbers who run these campaigns don’t seem to understand that being pro-life is a winning issue and doesn’t need to be hidden.

The only reason Landrieu won the last election was that she posed as a pro-lifer.

After the election, I got into a heated exchange with a fellow Freeper over that.

He didn't live here and knew nothing of Louisiana but insisted that Landrieu won because her opponent was pro-life.

Nonsense.

You should have heard the constant barrage of "I am Mary Landrieu and I am pro-life" ads that flooded the TV and radio that year. She was more pro-life than Randall Freaking Terry, until election day.
