Politician Hangs up on Obama, thinks it’s a Prank Call

(NECN/ABC) – If only she had caller ID. A phone call to a Florida congresswoman just didn’t have the ring of truth, so she gave the caller the bruth. Turns out, the guy she left hanging was a VIP: President-Elect Barack Obama.

Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen has a hangup. A paranoia about prank calls. So when a man sounding very much like the president-elect called her, she hung up.
