All his life, he's bulldozed his through every situation by repeating his lies until people get sick of it and give up. Welker wasn't doing that, and he couldn't handle it. Kudos to her for getting him so flustered that he had to call the whole thing off!
I agree that we need more of this sort of thing, where reporters stand firm and refuse to capitulate to him. It won't happen with the White House press corps, because they don't want to piss him off and lose their access to him, but other interviewers need to start following Welker's lead.

His evidence should have gone to the FBI. Previously, it didn't make it to the courts.
