Odds are you've heard of Elmo, the Sesame Street character whose voice is known to children and their parents alike around the world. You might not know the name Kevin Clash, the puppeteer who provides Elmo his voice–and operates the fuzzy celebrity from just out of sight.
On OutFront, Erin Burnett talked to Clash–the subject of a new documentary, Being Elmo, about his life–and about Elmo, who visited the set with his own unique take on Washington politics and solving the partisan divide.
Rep. Steve King's taking plenty of calls from candidates these days, as the Iowa Republican is considered a key endorsement to snatch up ahead of the Iowa caucuses. Last time around, King's endorsement of Fred Thompson lifted the candidate ahead of John McCain in Iowa. Who could get the King nod this time around?
King spent time pheasant hunting with Rick Perry–and told Erin Burnett the Texas Governor is "a good shooter," though he's not quite ready to make an endorsement.
