‘I was sick’: Biden looks for excuses in 1st interview after debate

“I was sick, I was feeling terrible… We were trying to figure out what’s wrong,” Biden explained in an excerpt from his first television interview since the debate. “They did a test to see whether or not I had some infection, you know, a virus. I didn’t. I just had a really bad cold.” As supporters cheered, Biden also attacked his rival, reading from teleprompters. “Let’s focus on what really matters,” he said.
