Wolfson: I'm Not Sure That Joe Andrew Is "Actually From Indiana"
A bit of an odd exchange on MSNBC just now: Howard Wolfson was asked by Andrea Mitchell to respond to former DNC chair Joe Andrew's switch to Obama.
Wolfson seemed to suggest that Andrew isn't really from Indiana, but Hillary is really from New York...
Wolfson: Well, I'm not sure by the way that he's actually from Indiana. I know he's originally from Indiana, but --Mitchell: Well it's sort of like Hillary Clinton being from Illinois, or New York, or Scranton, or Arkansas --
Wolfson: No, she lives in New York, and so when she -- she's a senator from New York, so she's from New York.
Parsing this a bit, it would appear to mean that you're not actually from a state if you were born there, but you are from a state if you moved there in your early fifties to get elected Senator.
