Tim Kaine: ‘We have to be at the table’ if there's a recount

Sen. Tim Kaine said Thursday morning that Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign felt compelled to take part in the recount efforts launched by Green Party candidate Jill Stein, even though “we’re very doubtful that the outcome is going to change.”

"The Clinton team looked at the votes and looked at recount and we're not going to pursue it. But when Jill Stein, one of the third party candidates, decided to do it — if there's going to be a recount we have to be at the table to make sure it's done right, that it's done fairly,” Kaine (D-Va.) told Washington, D.C. Fox affiliate WTTG-TV in a live interview Thursday morning.

And to think that Dan Quayle was ridiculed...Tim Kaine is Howdy Doody compared to the former VP (Quayle really got an undeserved rap).
