CAMEROTA What has been ░░░░░░░░ is this phone call ░░░░░░░░ in the last couple ░░░░░░░░ weeks and that it ░░░░░░░░ t go the way ░░░░░░░░ anticipated So do you ░░░░░░░░ that by him saying ░░░░░░░░ m sorry for what ░░░░░░░░ to you that s ░░░░░░░░ of a backwards apology ░░░░░░░░ you think he should ░░░░░░░░ that differently RENDELL I ░░░░░░░░ totally confused and I ░░░░░░░░ t know enough to ░░░░░░░░ it I will say ░░░░░░░░ Joe Biden has had ░░░░░░░░ terrific record of dealing ░░░░░░░░ women s issues including ░░░░░░░░ authorship and being a ░░░░░░░░ mover of the Violence ░░░░░░░░ Women Act Whether he ░░░░░░░░ an individual phone call ░░░░░░░░ something that happened almost ░░░░░░░░ years ago whether it ░░░░░░░░ the right type of ░░░░░░░░ I don t know ░░░░░░░░ can t say because ░░░░░░░░ wasn t privy to ░░░░░░░░ conversation You can t ░░░░░░░░ one line of a ░░░░░░░░ out of context CAMEROTA ░░░░░░░░ understand that And I ░░░░░░░░ your candor about this ░░░░░░░░ do you think that ░░░░░░░░ happened with Anita Hill ░░░░░░░░ be a challenge for ░░░░░░░░ on the campaign trail ░░░░░░░░ No Because he has ░░░░░░░░ terrific record on women ░░░░░░░░ issues Look we include ░░░░░░░░ media and people like ░░░░░░░░ who sort of make ░░░░░░░░ business politics we tend ░░░░░░░░ think the public reacts ░░░░░░░░ overreacts to everything It ░░░░░░░░ not true The proof ░░░░░░░░ that is Governor Northam ░░░░░░░░ Virginia who wore blackface ░░░░░░░░ a college photo session ░░░░░░░░ s a recent poll ░░░░░░░░ shows 55 percent of ░░░░░░░░ Americans in Virginia don ░░░░░░░░ want him to resign ░░░░░░░░ Because he s been ░░░░░░░░ good governor on their ░░░░░░░░ That s what people ░░░░░░░░ interested in What are ░░░░░░░░ doing to help the ░░░░░░░░ that we face That ░░░░░░░░ more important than some ░░░░░░░░ that could be construed ░░░░░░░░ way or the other ░░░░░░░░ So you think women ░░░░░░░░ general will forgive Joe ░░░░░░░░ for what happened with ░░░░░░░░ Hill RENDELL I think ░░░░░░░░ won t be a ░░░░░░░░ in deciding whether or ░░░░░░░░ to vote for or ░░░░░░░░ Vice President Biden At ░░░░░░░░ fundraiser last night there ░░░░░░░░ a lot of women ░░░░░░░░ gave 2 800 and ░░░░░░░░ some of them I ░░░░░░░░ it was a significant ░░░░░░░░ in their financial resources ░░░░░░░░ I think he has ░░░░░░░░ among women I don ░░░░░░░░ think this will change ░░░░░░░░ in any way CAMEROTA ░░░░░░░░ Ed Rendell we appreciate ░░░░░░░░ perspective Thank you for ░░░░░░░░ candor We ll speak ░░░░░░░░ you again.”
