Keith Olbermann Interviews Woman Stomped on By Rand Paul Supporter
The surreal scene of MoveOn.org representative Lauren Valle getting her head stomped on outside last night’s Kentucky Senate debate between Rand Paul and Jack Conway was destined to be cable news fodder for someone tonight, and Keith Olbermann followed through by not only discussing the matter, but bringing Valle on to Countdown to talk about it.
Olbermann criticized statements on the confrontation from both Paul’s campaign and by Paul himself before bringing in Valle, who showed no ill effects from the stomping aside from saying she’s still “pretty sore.” She explained she was there posing as an executive from a “satirical” conglomeration called RepubliCorp, representing the theoretical official merger of the Republican Party with big business. She said some of Paul’s supporters recognized her and “formed a blockade around” her so she wouldn’t reach Paul himself. Then, she tried to get around them and, well, you know the rest.
Valle said she’s “proceeding with a legal process” regarding the incident, and Olbermann was amused by the fact that one of the men who subdued Valle was wearing a button that said “Don’t Tread On Me.” Besides that, there wasn’t a whole lot to be amused by, because even if you’re at an event to try and make a candidate look bad, what happened to Valle crossed the line. Yell, rant, and rave at her all you want…but obviously last night’s events didn’t stop there, and they looked bad. Video of the interview below.
