Right after Robert Wright and Erin McCarty of 710 KEEL News Radio in Shreveport interviewed Sen. Mary Landrieu, they began mocking her for suggesting that Rep. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) should go to jail for payroll fraud for his medical work at LSU.
Apparently, the radio hosts were barely able to talk during the interview because Landrieu would not let up on the chatter and accusations.
Watch the hilarity for yourself:
And here are snippets of the segment:
“I got [a text] from somebody who didn’t listen, ‘How did it go?’” Wright said. “I said, ‘About how we anticipated.’”
“You could say, ‘What’s the last pair of shoes you bought?’ And she said, ‘Louisianans could buy more shoes for themselves if Bill Cassidy weren’t a crook,’” he said, as the other hosts burst into laughter. “I’m being totally serious.”
“What’s your Christmas going to be like, Mrs. Landrieu? ‘Well, my Christmas will be ruined if Bill Cassidy [wins],’” said another.
“We had her on because we asked her many times,” Wright said. “But, we knew what she was going to talk about. We knew that no matter what we asked she was going to come back to Cassidy and the LSU thing.”
“It was going to be one track and we knew because she’s Mary Landrieu and she knows what the hell she’s doing,” he said. “She’s going to control the conversation.”
“We got some good sound bites, be sure to cut us out, not that we were in it,” Wright joked.
McCarty added that Landrieu’s staff “sucks.”
“Let me tell you why her staff sucks,” she said. “I sent an email to her staff yesterday saying that I was the mother of two Marines, and that my mother was a big fan of hers, having been a retired state worker when she was state treasurer. And they were like, ‘Oh, great. She’ll love that.’ They never told her.”
