There are reports that, today, President Obama has endorsed Mary Landrieu\’s re-election bid in Louisiana.

Here, from huffingtonpost.com are the last five polls of President Obama\’s approval rating in Louisiana:

  -Rasmussen (11/16-19):  Approve 40%, disapprove 58%.  Difference: -18%

  -Vox Populi (11/16-17):  Approve 38%, disapprove 61%:  Difference -23%

  -Gravis Mktg (11/12-14):   Approve 33%, disapprove 61%:  Difference -28% 

  -Magellen (11/12 – one day):  Approve 32%, disapprove 62%:  Difference -30%

  -PPP (10/30 – 11/1):   Approve 36%, disapprove 56%:  Difference -20%

Call me a pessimist, but I can\’t help thinking that Senator Landrieu probably could have done without Mr. Obama\’s support.

If there is such a thing as a final nail in her senatorial coffin, this endorsement would be the one.
