Quotes of the week
With apologies to Oyster’s “quotes of the weak” posts, a rip off to bring some amusing quotes.
“He is a politician’s politician. He has an ability to tell everyone what they want to hear. …We’re a waste of this man’s talents,” — State Sen. Joe McPherson (D - Woodworth) (who doesn’t buy Jindal’s V.P. denials.)
“I don’t know if his heart was so much into being governor as it was in (finding a) stepping stone.” — State Sen. Eric LaFleur, (D-Ville Platte) (on Jindal not being available to legislators, only his staff)
And then there was this one:
“If (Barack) Obama asked me to be his vice president, I would say yes.” — Lt. Gov. MITCH LANDRIEU, in joking contrast to Gov. Bobby Jindal’s reluctance to respond definitely to questions about whether he would be John McCain’s running mate.
