Johnson actually asked Smerconish if he could talk to ANYONE at the polling companies about including him in the polls.

Smerconish replied by reminding Johnson that he needs to poll 15% to be included in the debates and then thanked him and cut to commercial.
I didn't realize it was old, but it doesn't surprise me to hear it. Sadly, I'm not surprised they didn't give him much airtime either. The crazy thing is it isn't like Johnson is just some crazy person in a random third party. He is a former state governor who likely would do pretty well if he ran as a republican. But for some reason the media seems to only care if you belong to one of the two main parties.
