True, they are educated ... but they are holding out for hope
I can't really blame them there
In time they will have to face reality and make some serious decisions
And yes, I do think they we being calculating when they scheduled this presser
they have not had a lot of time to absorb this new prognosis, and what it means, and there could be a lot of denial involved. who could blame them?
Like Howlin pointed out --- "calling a press conference at high noon (at the very spot they were married, no less)..."
absolutely smacks of drama -- political drama. That's oxygen to MSM and to his sagging campaign. He'll be milking this all the way to the VP spot on the democrat ticket.
