On the viability of an Obama/Clinton ticket: “At first I thought it wasn’t but I do think it could be.”

On voters: “They’re worried, and they want somebody to come in and say I can help a little bit you with healthcare, and paying for college, and all these things, and a Democratic candidate is more likely to do it.
