(AP Photo/Mark Duncan) Today's odd moment from the campaign trail: Bill Clinton had to interrupt his stump speech on behalf of Ohio Rep. John Boccieri for a pretty good reason—Boccieri's wife was in labor. "The baby's now being born, tell him goodbye," Clinton told the crowd. "You'd be amazed how many times I take a picture with a very pregnant woman and she immediately gives birth like that." Then, noting that both sets of grandparents were present, he added: "I would like some credit for your fifth grandchild being born into the world. We got another Democrat, I wish we could register that baby before it's too late." More at CNN. Read These Next JD Vance in hot water over birthday boating trip.
