CNN's Michael Smerconish defended Joe Biden on Saturday, stating that "there's been not a whiff of personal scandal about him" the former vice president.
"I don't seek to minimize the feelings of women who believe he was too close for their comfort. If they think it, then it was," Smerconish said on his weekly program Saturday morning. "I only wish to suggest that this is how he is with men and women. And with Biden, there's nothing hidden, nor prurient about it."
"In his half century of public service, he's touched literally tens of thousands of men and women. In all of that time, there's been not a whiff of personal scandal about him," he added. "Look, there are reasons not to support Joe Biden for president, Smerconish later concluded. "But his tactile nature isn't one of them."
