Hi, this is President-elect Obama and I.... Hello?
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen

Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen hung up on President-elect Barack Obama because she thought it was a prank call.

When his Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel called to tell her it wasn’t a joke, she hung up on him too.

Eventually, Rep. Howard Berman convinced her the President-elect really did want to congratulate her on her election victory. When the two finally spoke, there were no hard feelings.
