Giddy CNN Correspondent: 'I Feel Like I Should Pinch Myself Right Now'

JIM ACOSTA: And obviously, this is the moment that everybody is waiting for on Inauguration Day when the President and the First Lady step out of their limo and walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. You know, I feel like I should pinch myself right now, Wolf. I can’t believe I have this vantage point of history in the making.

WOLF BLITZER: You’re literally what, about 15, 20 feet away from the President?

ACOSTA: I’m probably a good – I would say 50 feet away from the President right now, Wolf. Very, very close.

ACOSTA: But one thing you can say, Wolf. It’s good to be the President. It’s almost like being a rock star on every street corner of Washington on this day because every time he hits a new intersection, the cheers go up on both sides of Pennsylvania Avenue, and for the President it’s just a whole new group of Americans to greet as he makes his way towards the White House. And I have to tell you, it’s been pretty exciting to watch all of this unfold from the back of this flatbed truck.
