Olbermann Interviews SC's Alvin Greene— Sort Of

But it's a little better than candidate's previous ones

Alvin Greene continued his halting media tour with an interview on Keith Olbermann's show last night. We didn't learn much more—he insisted he's not a plant and will not step down ("no, sir"), and would not talk about his felony charge. He also seemed to have an attorney just off camera feeding him answers, as Olbermann pointed out afterward.

Still, Olbermann's was the most successful interview so far because "he treated Greene like one would interview a child that won a contest to be on the TV, and now got to explain his science project," writes Frances Martel at Mediaite. "Except Greene’s science project is his campaign, and he’s too shy or uninformed or just plain confused to really explain what his campaign even is." (More Keith Olbermann stories.)
