Pelosi says she remains 'satisfied' with Biden's response to sexual assault allegation.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday that she has “a great comfort level” with how former vice president Joe Biden has addressed an allegation of sexual assault from the mid-1990s and praised him as “a person of great integrity.”

Pelosi’s comments — in a morning television interview and later at a news conference — amounted to her strongest defense of the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, whose campaign has flatly denied the allegation of Tara Reade, who worked for Biden while he was a senator from Delaware.

“I want to remove all doubt in anyone’s mind: I have a great comfort level with the situation as I see it, with all the respect in the world for any woman who comes forward, with all the highest regard for Joe Biden,” Pelosi said at a weekly news conference.

This dirty trick has no legs, I'm afraid. How sad for the GOP, which as we know cares deeply about women's issues. I hope Ms. Reade gets the help she appears to need.

Misleading headline, too. Much stronger support from Pelosi than "satisfied."
