Those pesky archives...
And about that White House experience... Russert asked HRC if she would be willing to release the archives of her communications with her husband during their time in the White House. So that people could evaluate the experience she touts on the campaign trail.
"The archives is moving as rapidly as the archives moves," she said, eyes darting about. "There's about 20 million pieces of paper there. And they are moving and they are releasing as they do their process, and I am fully in favor of that."
Right.
Obama said that answer exemplified "not turning the page."
"Not releasing the records at the same time, Hillary, as you're making the claim that this is the basis for your experience is i think a problem," he said. "Part of what we have to do is invite the American people back to participate in our government again."
Obama, rolling along, said one of the reasons the GOP is eager to fight Hillary is because it's a familiar battle.
"That's a fight they're very comfortable having," he said. "It is the fight that we've been through since the 90s."
The country doesn't need "eight more years of bickering," Obama added.
Game on?
