At Iowa rally with B. Clinton Johnson says:

"You don't want somebody in there that is young or a rookie at politics...We want somebody in there that knows what they're doing because this job is so huge."

Question: Does Mr. Johnson remember what he accomplished in the NBA finals in his rookie year?

 

NY Times wonders whether the Clinton team in Iowa waited "too long to try to humanize Hillary?"
