In comments sure to cascade into regional races across the South, embattled Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) told NBC's Chuck Todd on Thursday that Southern racism is to blame for President Barack Obama's unpopularity.

"Why does President Obama have a hard time in Louisiana?" asked Todd.

“Let me be very, very honest with you," said Landrieu. "The South has not always been the friendliest place for African-Americans. It's been a difficult time for the president to present himself in a very positive light as a leader."

Landrieu added: “It has not always been a good place for women, to be able to present ourselves. It’s more of a conservative place. So we’ve had to work a little bit harder on that. But, you know, the people trust me, I believe. Really, they do.”

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal blasted Landrieu's comments as desperate and out of touch.

And so because of Southern black racism, vote for me - the white Southern Democrat from a long line of white Southern Democrat aristocrats.  You just can't make this stuff up.

She is done. Gone. Kaput. Over. Stick a fork.
 
She was already on thin ice. Now she is finished. There is absolutely no way possible for her to win now.
 
Like the owner of a restaurant who publishes an article claiming that his bad reviews are because his customers are just too stupid to appreciate fine cuisine, you never insult the people you are trying to woo.
 
She doesn't live in Louisiana, so she better start now looking for a new job in her new adopted hometown of D.C.
 
Because she is going to be out of work very soon.

How can this woman who is running for a THIRD term...with a current TWICE elected black President, claim sexism and racism?

You can't fix stupid....
