SQUARESPACE CACHEVERSION=1413387905604US Senate(SHREVEPORT, La.) — It’s not exactly an A+ rating, but when asked to rate President Obama on a scale of one to 10 in the Louisiana Senate debate Tuesday night, vulnerable incumbent Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu said she’d give Obama “a six to a seven.”

Both of Landrieu’s Republican challengers, Rep. Bill Cassidy and Col. Rob Maness, gave Obama a rating of zero.

Another notable moment came in the debate’s lightning round when Cassidy said “yes,” he would support legalizing marijuana for medicinal uses.

Landrieu said “no,” as did Maness.
