Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) didn't mince words on Wednesday, when she returned to work after losing a run-off election to Republican Bill Cassidy. Is she considering running for public office again?
"Oh Lord, no," she told Politico.
Afterward, she backtracked just a little and said it was possible, but "highly, highly unlikely." Landrieu may have lost her job, but we can all learn something from the way she takes care of herself: "I've been sleeping for, like, three days."
