Pennies - Sept. 15, 2008

ANNOUNCER: John Kennedy says he's a penny pincher. But a Republican report shows as treasurer, Kennedy's mismanagement cost taxpayers $37 million. His own party cites lax procedures and failure to deposit checks on time, costing us $37 million. That's a lot of pennies, and one confused politician. Mary Landrieu – praised by taxpayer groups for voting against higher energy taxes, for smart investments in education and health care. Tough on waste.

LANDRIEU: I'm Mary Landrieu and I approve this message.
