It was at the very end of the press conference and he was only answering to a couple reporters.

2. He should have reacted like that on MTP

I saw the press conference and he was very uncomfortable (not only his fault, Feingold and Lieberman were very late and he had to do most of it himself), but he had trouble finding his words. He said that at the very end of the conference, on a completely different subject.

He is still young and will learn. I just hope that Reid does not give him tasks he is not yet ready for because he is a new face.

5. Right you are

He should have reacted like that on MTP
