At least Gary Johnson said he was sorry...

It's weird to hear a politician own up to a gaffe. At a rally in Manhattan on Saturday, Gary Johnson began his speech with 16 startling words: "I want to start out with an apology to all of you," the Libertarian Party presidential nominee told a crowd of 500 or so supporters. Politicians aren't supposed to apologize -- unless it's one of those sorry-not-sorry deals that precede yet another rant about why the opposing candidate is a dangerous cretin. Johnson, though, can't shut his yap about saying "What's Aleppo?" Thursday on MSNBC when asked about the war-ravaged Syrian city. He apologized in a statement, told "The View" he had "no excuse," and when I saw him at an event in Philadelphia on Monday, he said to me, "Well, at least you know how to find Aleppo on a map!"
