"I think very highly of him," the former Texas congressman said of the ex-vice president.

O’Rourke could have let the comment hang in the air, but he came immediately to Biden’s defense.

“And this was a point on which I and the person who made the statement disagree,” he said. “I think we’d be very lucky to have Vice President Biden in this race. I think he has a lot of perspective and experience to bring to bear.”
