National press and talking heads of the Republican persuasion had a field day over the weekend after photos surfaced of a Democratic senator assisting a late-20s-something with a keg stand at a Louisiana State University tailgate party.
The pictures show Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-Louisiana, manning the spigot helm as an LSU fan is hoisted upside down above a beer keg ahead of LSU's game Saturday against Mississippi State. A former Tiger herself, Landrieu reportedly made her rounds about her alma mater's campus - including a visit to her old stomping grounds at the Delta Gamma sorority - before eventually finding herself encircled by college students as they chanted for her to take part in a keg stand of her own.
Landrieu declined, but not before contributing to the probable hangover of what Mother Jones described as "a purple-shirted bro."
"My first keg stand," Landrieu told the Mother Jones reporter who trailed her pre-game festivities. "He wanted me to do it, but I said, 'Absolutely not - at least not in front of the national press.'" Pressed on whether it might have won her some votes, she shrugged: "That's alright - I'm not that desperate."
Realistically, though, Landrieu should be desperate. In what's already shaping up to be a rough year for Democrats in Congress, Landrieu is trailing, albeit by single digits, in polls against her challenger, Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy.
Another worrisome omen for Landrieu: At the game she attended, the Tigers lost to the Mississippi Bulldogs for the first time in more than a decade.
FWIW.......Senator Thunder Thighs needs to get a new, freakin' hair-style.
They’re not even doing it right. We used to hold the guy upside down so he had no choice but to chug....or spit it up when full.
Give it a couple more weeks, Mary. You'll be doing beer bongs while standing on your head.
LSU lost by the way.
new career?? and btw- LSU lost to Miss State for the first time in like five decades...the GOP should blame her for the loss as well..
I’m sure the Mississippi State folks are still laughing at the Geaux that got up and went, down.
Stomping or grazing?
LSU lost by the way.

I know. I cheated and read the Article.
In a couple of weeks fat mary will be singing "Rolling down the river" with Tina Turner, while picking up a Lone Star long neck with her female muscles and dialing 911 to rescue her campaign.
Beer boarding????
The reason the media has been repetitive about ‘Cassidy’, is that they wish the others that are in the race, to go away.
Not only is there ‘that race’, but there is also the 5th district race going on, with the questionable future of Vince McAllister, as well.
It is sad, that since the district was redrawn, that the city of Monroe, which has a larger population than Alexandria, and has been filled with a majority of Democrats, would be the ‘city of voice’ for the rest of usin the district.
And on the prospects of a fence across the Southern border to keep the hordes from sucking off US taxpayers, Landrieu called it the “dumb fence”......
==================================================
Vote-crazed Landrieu's ads say one thing---- but she "forgets to mention" she voted for amnesty.......when the cameras turned off.
MARY SUCKS-UP BIGTIME ---Landrieu released a statement as the voting commenced to push immigration reform on unsuspecting Americans:
"There's broad understanding that immigration reform is crucial for the economic strength of our country, and the bill before us is certainly worthy of debate. "
"As we move forward, I will be working with my colleagues to strengthen this legislation, particularly in the areas that will help small businesses the most, including making sure they have an express-lane to visas. I will also be focused on increasing investment in science and math education, and workforce development for our current citizens. We can either import those skills and talent from overseas or we can grow that talent here at home - I want to do more here at home."
"I hope that a robust floor debate will result in a strong, balanced bill that tightens our border security; provides a tough, but fair path forward for undocumented immigrants currently living in the U.S.; and addresses the needs of our industries, particularly hospitality, agriculture and high-tech."
