This morning on MSNBC, Chuck Todd took Mary Landrieu’s “clout” reelection theory and flushed it down the toilet.
“Here she is, the Chairwoman of the Energy committee … But, has Harry Reid allowed her to sort of flex her muscles and really use that platform to help Louisiana? I think an argument can be made she hasn’t been able to do that.”
Why is that a problem for Landrieu? Because she’s built her entire campaign around this phony “clout” argument, and has reiterated her support for the man who is actively working against the agenda that will help Louisiana, Harry Reid.
