Andrea Mitchell: NBC Hasn't "Authenticated" Obama Redistribution Clip, Won't Air





On her MSNBC program this afternoon, NBC News' Andrea Mitchell said the network would not air the clip of then-State Senator Barack Obama endorsing redistribution in 1988 because the network could not "authenticate" the clip.

"Let's explain this redistribution issue because we have not authenticated this 14-year-old tape from Loyola College when Barack Obama was a state senator. So because we have not independently at NBC news and MSNBC authenticated it, we're not airing it," Mitchell said.

"But the basic issue is they're accusing President Obama, as John Sununu said to be yesterday, of class warfare. That is trying to change the subject," Mitchell added.

If you keep throwing the sane (R)'s under the bus, Dave, pretty soon you've only got the insane (R)'s!

Romney’s likely to get 95 electoral votes from the top “moocher” states. Obama can only count on 5: “Three of the states with the lowest number of non-filers are solidly conservative: Alaska, North Dakota and Wyoming. Two, New Hampshire and Virginia, are swing states. All the rest are solidly Democratic, including half of New England. All told, Obama gets 50 electoral votes from the "maker" states to Romney's 9 -- 17 are tossups -- while Romney gets 96 electoral votes from the "taker" states to Obama's 5, with 29 as tossups.” Dylan Matthews in The Washington Post.
