The patriarch of the family known as the "Cajun Kennedys" is being remembered by friends and foes for his service to our state and nation.

23-year-old Frank Snellings, son of former Senator Mary Landrieu was arrested this past weekend after his 2-year-old son was brought into a Baton Rouge hospital with bruises.

There won't be another Landrieu in the U.S. Senate at least not in this election. The New Orleans Mayor says his work in the Big Easy isn't done yet.

Citizens in Louisiana are not overly pleased with either Louisiana Senator's job performance according to a recent study.

Louisiana Democrats hope to fill their campaign coffers with tonight's Jefferson-Jackson fundraiser. Featured guests include a candidate for President and a candidate for Governor.

When a former member of congress becomes a lobbyist on average they get what amounts to a 1,452% raise in pay. Hard to feel sorry for Mary Landrieu about losing that Senate election isn't it?
