every american believes you should be able to walk with your dad on a beautiful day in july and walk down the pier in san francisco and not lose your life. the acts of him holding her and her asking him to help her and the helplessness he felt in that moment is just heart wrenching. that s why we watch this. that s why we wait for this decision to come down. the other thing is, it s my experience and imagine it s yours as well, that jurors take these responsibilities extremely seriously. absolutely. martha: they have been deliberating 30 hours. absolutely. let me say this about the sympathy factor. judges will every jury that sympathy plays no role here. you don t decide this case based
this is someone who speaks openly about this emotions. to me, it is not really an indictment for him to have spoken with maureen and he shared this story about what transpired between him and his son before he died. i think people accept joe biden as being an emotional man who bears his soul and talks about what is going on in his life. you mentioned if this is planted by the clinton s to neutralize the sympathy factor for joe biden. do you think that is the case? i think the clinton s are capable of it. they are capable of hard nose, smash mouth, destroy the accuser, inconvenient people, politics and they have been doing it for 25 years. the idea they would not to joe biden if he was a real threat seems obvious they would. they are close friends with him.
heard later was they were saying well, the questions weren t really salient because we had already indicated the clinton camp was saying through one of their attorneys a couple months ago that the server had been wiped. i wouldn t listen to that. if we knew that why doesn t couldn t she answer it. somebody else answer it for her she is the candidate and you are the coverage guy and you asked the candidate to answer and she didn t. okay, now, in this same quinnipiac poll we showed, joe biden performed better than hillary clinton against the republican contenders, but that doesn t really mean anything now. in of in fact these polls don t mean much that hillary clinton isn t doings well in 2016. that could go either way, right? it okay what you are seeing with joe biden too, every candidate, democratic or republican looks a heck of a lot better before they get into race. right now people saying joe biden there is a sympathy
