Interview on Countdown With Keith Olberman — Joe Biden Explains His Controversial Response During The AFL-CIO Debate Last Night
Posted by Catherine Morgan on August 8, 2007
Since I covered a recap of this debate last night, I felt I should add this interview of Joe Biden, explaining what appeared to many as him being disrespectful to the woman who asked a question.
This is how it appears on my recap post…
Joe Biden’s Macaca Moment…
Senator Joe Biden blows off during the Democratic AFL/CIO debate a woman’s question who’s husband died in the Sego mining accident on what he’d do about mining safety. The crowd is obviously not happy about it.
This is the explanation by Joe Biden on Countdown.











STEW said
“…Joe Biden is now the third best bet for the nomination. I’m hearing a lot of buzz about him from people who pay attention.”
