Howard Dean: Hillary’s E-mail Scandal ‘Manufactured’ by ‘Bored’ Media and GOP

TODD: "So to discuss the state of Hillary Clinton's campaign and the chances of Joe Biden jumping in, I'm joined by Howard Dean, the former governor of Vermont, who ran for the Democratic nomination in 2004, he is publicly backing Hillary Clinton right now, and Peter Hart, a hugely influential Democratic pollster who's worked for who's who of the party, from Hubert Humphrey to Bill Clinton, and of course, he's one half of the NBC/Wall Street Journal polling team that we use. Welcome to both of you. Governor Dean, let me start with you. The evolving answers here, at the end of the day, can you say that Hillary Clinton has handled this well?"

DEAN: "I actually don't think the answers are evolving. I think they're steady as she goes. Look, this is, in fact, manufactured partly by a press that's bored and partly by the Republicans. Here's the deal. She did not break any rules, she did not break any policy, she may have sent stuff that was classified that wasn't labeled classified, and it is well known that the State Department and others are trying to get stuff classified after the fact. She can't be blamed for this. So I look at this as the usual press frenzy, the pack journalism, and I think it'll go away, because there's no sense to it."
