	Mary Landrieu - Congresspedia
		On May 23, 2005, Landrieu was among the Gang of 14, the group of moderate senators who forged a compromise on the use of the judicial filibuster, thus blocking the Republican leadership's attempt to implement the so-called nuclear option over the organized filibustering by Senate Democrats of judicial nominees in the US Senate.
		Mary Landrieu was born November 23, 1955 in Arlington, Virginia and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana.
		Landrieu was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1996, defeating Woody Jenkins, and narrowly won reelection in 2002, defeating Suzanne Haik Terrell.

	Mary Landrieu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mary Landrieu was born in Arlington, Virginia, and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana.
		Landrieu was an unsuccessful candidate in the 1995 gubernatorial race in Louisiana—she finished third in the state's qualifying primary (sometimes referred to as the "jungle" primary)—thus failing to make the run-off which effectively becomes the general election in Louisiana.
		Landrieu was elected to the U.S. Senate in the presidential election year of 1996, defeating Woody Jenkins by 5,788 votes out of 1.7 million cast, the narrowest national result of the 33 races for the U.S. Senate and one of the closest election margins in Louisiana history.

	Mitch Landrieu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Landrieu was elected to the Louisiana House of Representatives in 1987 where he served for sixteen years in the seat previously held by his sister and his father.
		In 1993 Landrieu made an unsuccessful bid for the office of Mayor of New Orleans; the office went to Marc Morial, the son of another former mayor (the contest between sons of former mayors prompted some commentators to joke about establishing a tradition of primogeniture for the city's top office).
		With Landrieu's unsuccessful mayoral bid concluded, political pundits around the state have alleged that the Lt.Governor is regrouping and preparing to run for Governor against the incumbent,Kathleen Babineaux Blanco, bearing in mind that the Lt. Governor in Louisiana is a separate, elected office.

	Mary Landrieu (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Mary Landrieu told the truth in a fundraising letter she sent out last year, in which she boasted that she was "proud" of her 80 percent rating in the voting "scorecard" of the National Abortion Rights Action League.
		Given this overwhelming pro-abortion voting record, it is perhaps not surprising that Mary Landrieu and her campaign have tried to deflect the debate onto other issues, particularly endless rehashing of whether Suzanne Terrell authorized use of her name for a Planned Parenthood banquet in 1994.
		Mary Landrieu knows very well, that when President Bush nominates someone to the Supreme Court, Suzanne Terrell is going to stand with the President, instead of with the pro-abortion advocacy groups that will seek to defeat that nomination.

		Mary was elected to her first term in 1996 at a time when Republicans were being slaughtered in the streets in Louisiana by desperate Democrats.
		Since Mary has never had an iota of impact on the Senate or government in general, it is assumed that she is just there because no one wants her in Louisiana.
