In the last two days since I made this charge, they've been covering their you-know-what's and trying to come up with additional information, ... Anderson Cooper 360.
If you want a president who is going to get results, I suggest that you look at somebody who did get results in my state,
by standing up and telling the truth and not worrying about polls and focus groups.
