| 0:00.0 | I'm John Besser with my colleague Elizabeth Peek of Fox News, a columnist, of The Hill a columnist, |
| 0:11.6 | and Liz has a column up that's great fun. Everybody should play it. It's called the Vice President's game. |
| 0:16.1 | The Vice President for the Democrats is fixed. It's former Senator Harris now Vice President Harris. |
