Finally getting his chance to interview Hillary Clinton on Friday’s The Lead, CNN anchor Jake Tapper didn’t exactly measure up as while he did what other reporters failed to do in asking Clinton about her relationship with Sidney Blumenthal, he cozied up to her on the recent marking of her and Bill’s 40th wedding anniversary plus sarcastically asking he could “get your e-mail address.”

Right off the top, Tapper congratulated Clinton on a new poll from New Hampshire that finds her back ahead of Bernie Sanders and asked her “what the pundit in chief” in her husband “said to you after the debate.”
