Chuck Todd Bashes Hillary for Taking One-Third as Many Questions as Bill

[rush transcript]
DIAZ-BALART: “And, Chuck, Hillary Clinton emerged in Brooklyn yesterday, her campaign releasing a video of a walking tour. She said that she was talking to some real folks in Brooklyn, according to Politico. She ordered a salad at the local pizza shop. What’s the strategy?” 
TODD: “Look, anything I think to make her more approachable, I mean, I think that that has been — when you talk to folks that are close to Hillary Clinton and you look at their image — and they’re certainly concerned about it — there’s this idea that she’s just not a very approachable person. When you’ve been in a secret service bubble for 23 years as she has been, it sometimes can be very easy to get comfortable inside the bubble. So I think part of this is not just about making her appear more approachable, I think part of this is also getting her more comfortable outside of the bubble. However, let’s not start talking about Brooklyn as real America here. OK. You know, Brooklyn is hipster capital of the world these days. It’s not exactly Iowa.” 
DIAZ-BALART: “And Chuck what was the last time she spoke to the press, for example? That’s been something she hasn’t been very approachable on that front?” 
TODD: “Well, not only that, I think the oddest statistic that we pointed out in First Street a couple days ago, let me give you this one. Since Hillary Clinton announced her candidacy for president, there has been a Clinton who has taken quite a few questions from the press. That Clinton, though, is Bill, not Hillary. He has taken 39 questions, I believe, in various televised and on-camera questions from members of the media and that includes his Letterman appearance. But of course, our own colleague Cynthia McFadden and Christiane Amanpour. So in the same period of time since Hillary Clinton announced her candidacy, the Clinton that has taken more questions is Bill, not Hillary. 39 to 9. I think that’s something they need to figure out how to correct.”
