Biden caves on the Hyde amendment

Twitchy: "Awkward: Biden aide ‘struggled badly’ on CNN to explain boss’s Hyde Amendment one-eighty."  As noted here, the video is remarkable because of the presence of journalism.  The CNN interviewer simply wants an answer as to how Biden supported the Hyde amendment for 42 years (!), reaffirmed his position on Wednesday, then flipped completely on Thursday.

Extra - The Hill: "Such explanations beg the question of what justification — other than cold-eyed political calculation — could be offered for such a rapid U-turn on an issue that is fundamentally the same as it ever was."
