Borderline Offensive': Debbie Wasserman Schultz Left Nearly Speechless After Tough Interview

If those interviews by DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, where she does nothing but spew talking points and condescending quips, annoy you, then you will likely jump for joy over what you’re about to hear.

Doug McIntyre, a radio host at 790 KABC-RADIO in Los Angeles, interviewed the chairwoman on Monday about the DNC’s decision to name LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa to head the party’s convention. As McIntyre notes, Villaraigosa has his critics in Southern California (“Los Angeles can't even pave the sidewalks”), and McIntryre was floored that he was chosen.

Considering that, he did the opposite of a fluff interview and did the impossible: he left the snarky Wasserman Schultz nearly speechless. Sure, she was able to fall back on to some talking points (demonizing the rich, blaming Republicans), but by the end, she tapped out.

The rare interview is below:

As McIntyre said, back in 2009 LA Magazine dubbed Villaraigosa a “failure.”

“It's a common enough sentiment around town, even among Democrats, but a pretty startling turn given the early pro-Antonio leaning of the magazine's editor-in-chief, Kit Rachlis,” LAObserved wrote at the time.

And yes, LA Weekly has dubbed him the "11 percent" mayor for his lack of time spent in LA. Here's how the Weekly responded when Villaraigosa was picked as the new head of the conference of mayors.

"So the 11 percent mayor will now have even less time in his busy schedule of flying around the world, holding press conferences, and cutting ribbons to do any real work for Angelenos," it said. But it didn't stop there: "Wonder what Villaraigosa plans for the conference's future? Lessons in how to write a city budget by obscuring important facts and figures."
