I think that's about all the answer needed.

Just my opinion .. but I don't think it's absolutely necessary for a politician (or anyone really) to answer a gottcha' question. It's a debasement of conversation (communication) implying that one person 'owns' or is 'directing' the narrative -- and I won't go along with playing that game either. If you want to have a discussion with me -- then you accept my input -- as I see fit to input. Don't try to bully me into 'your' narrative.
