Alltime leader in career touchdown passes breaking brett favres record. Good morning, welcome to morning joe. With us onset we have professor at Columbia University of school of International Public affairs Dorian Warren. Good stuff there. Last night. Yeah. Peyton manning broke the all time career touchdown record that was held by brett favre. He did it in the first half. He needed three. He did three in the first half just for good measure. You can make the case hes the greatest of all time. Were living in an era it could be him or tom brady. His teammates love him. Hes one of the smartest players that ever played the game. Now perhaps the greatest quarterback ever. Unbelievable. Well, that must be fun for you guys. I want made my weekend. Im sure you were in front of the weekend watching football seeing alabama to win. I did notice that they won
like the biggest way ever. They woke up. The poor little team. They were terrible, obviously. Did they even score a point. No. They wanted to. If that counts. Ill move on to news and politics. Something nobody in america has ever said about texas a m. The midterms are weeks away and democrats and republicans are jockeying for position but not just the congress at stake but the white house. Hillary clinton leads all other names tested by more than 50 points and for the moment the primary would be hers to lose. Mitt romney is the head of the Republican Party field by 10 points. Hes winning with women and voters who identify themselves as very conservative. But without him the picture is muddier with jeb bush edging out rand paul and mike huckabee. And ben carson is right behind National Figures like marco rubio and Chris Christie. Nbc news wall street journal poll shows likely voters prefer a Republican Led Congress by a five point spread. Highprofile surrogates have fanned the country for both sides. Bill clinton and senator Elizabeth Warren were in arkansas and iowa over the weekend for democrats. But throughout most of the cycle president obama has been noticeably absent. The Washington Post poll shows why his approval is upside down on everything from the economy to ebola. But he was back on the trail yesterday, campaigning in maryland and illinois for gubernatorial candidates. And in the case of the Maryland Defense reuters reports some of the crowd left early while the president was still speaking. The only thing they said yes to was another massive tax cut for millionaires. I know thats surprising but thats what happened. So you know who they are fighting for and it aint you. Its not you. They are not. Willie, a lot to talk about. First lets go back to the polls. No surprise. On the democratic side Hillary Clinton up 50 points. Yeah. On the republican side, mitt romney ahead. Comfortably leading the field if he decides to run. The romneys can say they are not interested in running but the more they hear that this guy is a prohibitive favorite without even trying i got to say the more likely they are going to jump to this thing. You have to stipulate every time we look at these things its very early. We dont know what these polls mean except theres some indecision in the Republican Party about who the best guy would be. Does jeb get in. Does Chris Christie get back in. Until we know those pieces that poll doesnt mean that much. Dorian, we say polls, midterm polls really just dont matter until you get down to the last few weeks. Were the last few weeks away
nbc news wall street journal poll show republicans have a five moynihan lead on democrats. Thats something to pay a lot of attention to. Unless youre two weeks out and other polls showing this trend and then suddenly thats a big concern for democrats. All the polls that we have seen in the last few weeks and months show for a republican takeover of the senate, but theres some key races that could country out anyway in the next two weeks depending on what happens. Weve seen in several states in terms of Alison Lundergan grimes in kentucky and her position whether she voted for president obama, the president is trying to mobilize black voters in some key states, georgia, maryland, it will be interesting to watch what happens. Generally the predicts from the polls show Republicans Holding on to the house and possibly taking over the senate. You mentioned Elizabeth Warren as she hits the campaign trail she brings an aggressive
populist message. I think the game is rigged here. I think washington actually works really well for those who have lots of money, lots of lobbyists, lots of lawyers. I remember the day that i walked into my folks bedroom, and my mother had her best dress out and i was trying to figure what this meant. I was 12. She was trying. Talking to herself. We will not lose this house. And finally she wiped her face, she pulled on that dress, put on her lipstick, stepped into her high heels and she walked to the Sears Roebuck where she got a minimum wage job in an america where a minimum wage job would support a family of three and thats how we survived. Veteran iowa reporter Jennifer Jacob tweeted i think its fair to say that the crowd ofway dems absolutely loved Elizabeth Warrens debut speech here of the 2016 president ial cycle. Is she going to run, mika . I dont know. I really dont. Because i think Hillary Clinton has this. But i would love to see her in the conversation, thats for sure. If hillary doesnt shes putting herself in a position where she can. Do you think this idea of clearing the field, hillary clearing the field is bald for her and for democrats, the fact that you have someone like Elizabeth Warren who has a good message, a portion of the country really relates to, cant even be talked about in serious terms until Hillary Clinton decides why not talk about everybody equally. Its bad for the Democratic Party that they are placing the crown on somebody two years out saying you are going to be the heir apparent. What weve seen with hillary
what that makes her do is move more to the center, more to the center right, she gets cozier with wall street because she doesnt think anybody will challenge her on the left. She gets cozier with the Foreign Policy position that ive been calling her a neocon for years. Shes one of the most militaristic democrats. Very hawkish. Also the biggest hawk in the room and i find it stunning that the Democratic Party will not even allow a challenge to this sort of warmed over conservatism that she presents. I agree, joe. I agree wholeheartedly. I think the republicans are in better shape because they will have a competitive primary season. We should prefer competitive elections. We were saying the same thing in 2006 and 2007. This is hillarys if she wants it and then somebody came out of almost, of the shadows so to speak and emerged at this new
candidate. The same could happen this time. Those battles week in and week out that we covered, president obama and senator clinton were scratching and clawing. Everyone got better. They all got better. Hillary went from being an absolutely miserable candidate on the field to being, i think, an extraordinarily effective tough compelling speaker. She will not be with this sort of rose garden strategy without the rose garden which is what shes going to do. Shes going to play it at 30,000 feet and get in a general election and get blind sided. Ive seen it time and time again. This is very bad for the Democratic Party. You see this team around her thats making it very clear to others they need to keep their distance and i think sometimes having being challenged and bringing your opponents closer to you and letting people into the process makes for exactly what you just described. Yeah. A process that makes everybody better and the best
candidate emerges. I think it would being a great if Elizabeth Warren joined it. I really do. Even for the conversation itself. And help define the Party Principles going into the next absolutely. Politico is out with a new poll showing a pessimistic outlook for voters in swing states. 64 think things are out of control while 36 believe the country can meat its economic and National Security challenges. Look at that, willie. 64 were completely out of control. America, a runaway beer truck. Ive never seen that question asked. Do you think that we are a runaway beer truck careening through the appalachians about to go into a death spiral. Are things completely out of control. We have to ask mike about that. 20 thought the country is on the right track. 50 say its on the wrong track. Lets bring in mike allen. Whats with your questions, man. Its very grim out there. Of course who does this hurt . Does this hurt the democrats since the president is in power. Does it hurt republicans since republicans are running the senate . Who gains, who loses from this very dower mood. Depends on who is driving the beer truck and in the case of the nation thats the president so in senate races this mostly benefits democrats. In states, the governor who trying the beer truck and a great example of where this could hurt a republican is in wisconsin, where Governor Scott walker is very dependent on the right track wrong track feeling in his state. Now, the real game change in this poll is that as weve seen on morning joe throughout this cycle theres been this sort of low grade worry about the economy and jobs. But what were seeing here, regardless of how you word the question is now a red hot worry on a number of fronts. And this includes as you delve into the polls and we have some of these specifics to show our viewers, people are worried, very worried about their Health Insurance and whether or not those prices are going to go up. Theres mixed evidence about that. They are threat to the homeland that the Islamic State could pose. This is the most interesting one. You mentioned this at the top, president ial management. Believe it or not a tie between george w. Bush and barack obama as to who is better off running the government. There you go in terms of managing the federal government. You see the numbers there. George w. Bush seeming to be more effective, 38 to 35 . Barack obama under george w. Bush certainly something no one at the white house would have thought six years ago. No. Four years ago. Two years ago. Two days ago. But there it is. Its one crisis after another the latest is the ebola crisis thats at the top of mine. Another number that jumped out at me direction of the country only 20 think that the country is on the right track. 20 . All right. Mike allen, thank you. We had a debate on the show last week about that and it got, you know, rough between Steve Rattner and Nicole Wallace over who is better at running the country. Can we just say can we just say that both president s have been very challenged in their leadership abilities for Different Reasons. Yes. And i think that its interesting to see the republicans respond to ron klain being chosen i guess not an official ebola czar but running the ebola fall out now in this
country and they are lining up. We could play eight sound bites of people criticizing the decision at every turn. What do you think of that, though . Look, its obvious people are like why doesnt he have the medical experience. Right now its about trying to get the different organizations to work in sync with each other and in tandem. For me it wasnt that he didnt have the political background. I would have loved to see could lynn powell. Emergency response. Bring alan malawi. But with this, maybe ron will do a great job. Im sure hes a great guy, a greet leader but here again its somebody that barack obama knows, that barack obama is comfortable with, thats inside the cocoon, that wont challenge anything. I think a lot of americans, if he wanted to make americans feel more comfortable he would have gotten somebody like a colin
powell or somebody from industry like alan malawi that knew how to run things. I also think what we have said in this set is that a lot of it is the optics of what they are already doing being channelled appropriately. And perhaps thats one of his great strengths, strategizing and making the different deputies work together. I get it. It was interesting to see them line up. This is what weve seen throughout this entire presidency, just pot shots right and left. I dont think its a pot shot to say barack obama no, i dont think its pot shot that barack obama has serious leadership challenges. Look, you have the grimace face. I would like to take betts. Historians will be writing and lumping together george w. Bush and barack obama as two people
that dont we just had this conversation. I dont know. On a range of issues. Maybe if barack obama but as far as leadership knowing how to effectively run the white house, knowing effectively how to run washington, d. C. , knowing effectively how to run the bureaucracies. We should have a Surgeon General in place. I look forward to reading those historians that say this guy knows how to run washington effectively. I look forward to seeing that. I dont know who will write that. Ill be happy to call my friends in vegas and place that bet. Still ahead on morning joe, Actor Danny Aiello. He didnt start acting until he was 36 years old and he played over 90 different roles. He said he was glad he didnt get the Academy Award in do the right thing.

Bill kristol just said Elizabeth Warren was good over the weekend. He was talking about alabama and auburn. He said harvard is undefeated. What are they the lamb chops . The lamb chops. You call them the harvard mighty crimson or 2010 men of harvard. Whatever. I would offer to sing the fight song but i think i wont. I almost fell off my chair. Everybody talks about florida state, mississippi state, florida notre dame game really. Is that important compared to harvards undefeated season. This weekend on espn 3. Do people get espn 3. Is that a real channel . Its a computer box. Porno week. If i go to a sports bar they will be showing the harvard game on saturday afternoon . Thats my plan. Okay. Bill kristol and the Weekly Standard has six reasons to panic over ebola. Well get to that in a minute. Before you panic, the Washington Post, a campaign with no answers. Were sort of talking about politics and a lot of campaigning happening over the weekend as we close in on election day. The closing days, this is ruth of a closely fought election rarely offer uplifting moments, but the 2014 season has been particularly dreary, nearly
devoid of content and high on unedifying speck cal behavior that disrespects voters knows no partisan label. Consider kentucky democrat Alison Lundergan grimes steadfast refusal to state whether she voted for president obama. This strikes me as the wrong calculation. The voters would be alienated by a straightforward answer and already lost to grimes but i can imagine wavering voters being turned off by her dodgeiness. We can talk about other Democratic Candidates did poorly. I go back to what you said after the republicans lost the 2012 election. If youre going to win stand for something. Are republicans standing for anything specifically . Some are. I dont agree this media line its the worst election ever. In virginia where i live, ed
gillispie has given two or three serious policy speeches. He laid out, had the courage to lay out a conservative alternative to obamacare. Hes losing. Hes gaining. I actually think if you go around and look at tom cotton or those from New Hampshire they are running clear policy campaigns. Its not a mystery what the Republican Party says in opposition to obama. 2014 is more about checking and stopping president obama and rebuking him for what hes done. 2016 has to have a big positive agenda. Off year elections are different from president ial elections. We have some results from early voting that show promising turn out early on. Iowa, georgia. Few other states. Promising for whom. For both parties. Just for the election broadly the turn out rates are much higher than they were in 2010. Dana millbank writes the
nasty politicization of ebola. Theres budget cuts forcing them to shelf 14 ebola grants. The nih was forced to prioritize spending to react to the most pressing currents threats rather than potential ones and because there was little ebola activity at the time shifting money to ebola from say cancer or Alzheimer Research wasnt a viable possibility. With ebola vaccines entering Clinical Trials its not much of a stretch to conclude that with those extra Research Dollars vaccines would now be on the market. All right. I cant let that go. That would be like me telling my mother, like when i was 14 years old and i kept forgetting to tie my shoes before i went out and played football and i kept tripping on the one yard line and fumbling, mom if you only spent more money on my shoes no its that i cant stand up for falling down as Abbott Costello would say. We had a congresswoman who we liked very much on friday who said all of this is happening because of cuts to this budget. No. Were talking about basic incompetency. Were talking about agencies the World Health Organization and the cdc not knowing how to follow set up and have people follow basic guidelines. We can have this discussion about funding later. We cant have it right now. Theres gross incompetence through not only the government but health care organizations. This crisis right now is not brought about by funding. This crisis has been brought about by gross government incompetence. The time for the government to ask more money is not while they exhibit gross incompetence but when they prove to us and all taxpayers they know what the hell they are talking about and doing. Ebola has been an issue in africa for months and months and months. World Health Organization has ignored it. The cdc
the white house has. The president could have look its a legitimate policy debate about the budget levels for nih and cdc. And how they are spending the money they have. What they are spending the money is politically correct nonsense. The president of the United States could have gone to the appropriate committees in congress and said i need to reappropriate these studies going from second hand smoke from Electronic Cigarettes to ebola. He didnt. Its a legitimate debate. The president is the president. The democrats control congress. If they wanted to increase funding they could have. Joe is right. Its a matter of government incompetence not funding. Right now. As i said from the beginning of this debate dont put me in that rightwing republican box. Im alone in the republican box. I think we should spend more money on the nih like we should spend more money on jaex but not until we reform them first. And right now, nih needs
reforming, the cdc needs reforming and before we give another dime to the w. H. O. We need to make sure through the United Nations that they stop being this incompetent. This crisis is upon us today because of the horrible decisions they made last spring. Because of cuts we have no vaccine. Six reasons to panic for ebola. Thats not true but ill let you go ahead and put that jab in. One jab against 20. A Constitutional Congress that one jab was not. Six reasons to panic over ebola is in the Weekly Standard and lets go through these bill kristol. Number one, start with what we know and dont know about the virus. Well, it can be transmitted, obviously, not as easily as some people think. General infection rates are terrifying. Were over 8,000 cases. Its growing. The rate of growing is increasing. People who sit here in the u. S. And say only three kay sos far, one person was let in foolishly, hes infected two people. We dont know what happens next. Thats a dangerous the growth of it is whats dangerous. The growth this is whats dangerous. I want to go back to the first question. The thing what we know and dont know. Whats angered me the most is having Health Care Officials get on tv, willie, and saying we know this. If something goes wrong, you know, its because of a nurse who took off her uniform the wrong way. Right. Or a doctor that took off the uniform. Like my dad. My dad was scared of flying. Every time a plane flipped upside down and crashed, pilot error. A bolt falls off the engine, pilot error. Could have put the thrust. Thats what they are doing here. They are not exactly sure how it
transmits. Ive said this since David Axelrod mocked me on meet the press three or four weeks ago. Kent brantley who sat in africa preparing for ebola patients for a month, they set up special units to prepare, when they finally came in, kent dantley treated them and came home and he still doesnt know today how he got ebola. Were not exactly sure how this transmits because as this article presents, this isnt like the other four strains that infected human populations before. We dont know. If they would just say were not exactly sure i would have a lot more confidence in them. Every doctor youve seen on television are pretty sure. This is the way its transmitted. Yesterday somebody said this is a very difficult disease to get and thats the message thats put out there. The truth is the only reason its here in the United States one guy came in when he shouldnt because there was no screening and the hospital at dallas admitted it wasnt
prepared. It wasnt because there wasnt good screening because they gave visas to people in liberia to be tourists in the u. S. Thats ridiculous. That exposed americans to risk. Two americans now contracted ebola. Secondly why were they treated at that hospital in dallas which seems like a normal suburban nonexpert hospital. The head of the cdc said as matter of principle this can be treated at any hospital in the u. S. Its not that urgent or dramatic. They put the burden on this hospital which clearly wasnt ready for this. They put the burden on the nurses. Now they got two people and said all the protocols are in place. The protocol are 800 pages. The nurses did their best. Thats a real governmental failure. We should have as much concern about american lives around the flu and other things. The flu killed more americans than war in iraq but it was legitimate for people who disagreed with me this war is going well. Thats a bad argument. Ebola is a current threat. Theres legitimate policies to debate. Im waiting for anyone to explain why people are getting via sasse in liberia and sierra leone to visit the u. S. On a nonemergency basis. This entire argument, were playing with a nuclear bomb right here, and people are saying, well, you know, more people are going to die from the flu this year than a nuclear bomb. Yeah, if we hand tell Nuclear Material correctly. If we dont, guess what. Its going to get bad and get bad very quickly and im not talking about you. I really am not. But i am sick and tired of people saying oh, youre just trying to panic people. Axelrod i went back to david three weeks ago being conde sending and he was wrong on every single point. He said this will not affect
elections and lets look back six months from now joe and see if nothing happens. I have four children. I hope six months from now we look back and go thank god that was just like monkey pox. Axelrods point was the government is handling it fine. Of course. They just appointed someone. Axelrods point three weeks he was frustrated. And axelrods point was how dare anybody question the federal government for doing this. Called me dr. Scarborough because i quoted the Washington Post directly on three points. I think we should be worried about the 100,000 west africans that might die. The 100,000 thats the estimates from several experts by the end of the year. We should care. I know we got to go but i have to ask bill kristol this. Ive been challenging liberals to stop being so smug. Please lets not even ask any difficult questions because youre trying to panic the population. My challenge to conservatives is this, were going to have to do what george w. Bush did with aids in africa because its not just about aids in africa, this is an International Health crisis. We have to invest, we have to do two things at once and liberals dont think we can do twhoings at once. We can. We can aggressively go after ebola in africa like george w. Bush went after aids in africa. We aggressively make sure we dont let it grow here. The other countries in west africa have taken responsible precautions. They shut off entrants from people from the infected areas. As did did you read thor to about the guy who was a Business Leader in one of the regions in sierra leone. You dont get in you dont get out. Guess whatnot one ebola patient. Bill kristol, thank you. They say president obama has a spending problem. Said personal finance problem. I went up to a restaurant in new york when i was a member of the general assembly, and my credit card was rejected. [ laughter ] i guess i dont use it enough. They thought there was some fraud going on. Fortunately michele had hers. I was trying to explain to waitresses ive been paying my bills. Even im affected by it. Thank you very much, everybody. The president s budget director is our next guest. Well ask what the president needs to do not to have his credit card decline. Are you coming back to the princeton game this sunday .

hi, are we still on for tomorrow . Tomorrow. Quick look at the weather. Nice day, beautiful tomorrow. Tomorrow is full of promise. We can come back tomorrrow. And we promise to keep it that way. Driven to preserve the environment, csx moves a ton of freight nearly 450 miles on one gallon of fuel. What a day. Cant wait til tomorrow. Heres one of these good news bad news cycles. Good news, youre going to have to spin the bad news into good news. Good to see you here. We have the office of management and budget director Shaun Donovan here. It shrank to 483 billion in 2013. This is an issue its a reason i got into congress. So we see numbers like this and its good news. Could you explain to us this has been predicted for some time and then we understand it will ramp back up. Why is that . Well, first of all, it was predicted by the president. He said this is going be a key thing. The deficit is down twothirds since he came into office and one of the things thats most important to focus on is not just is it down but its below the average that weve had over
the last 40 years. They have been predicting this for some time but its actually lower than they have been predicting. The number that im excited about and a lot of economists would be excited about, 2. 8 . Any time youre below 3 of gdp youre in pretty good shape, right . Exactly right. Thats a key target. Whether you call it were back to fiscal normalcy but below average of the last four years is a key thing. The bad news. What will we do about it. The demographics over the next five, six, seven years this number will go back. What do we do to lessen that. Youre exactly focused on the right thing which is in the long run we have more folks retiring than we may have in the workforce to support them. We need to make sure, first of all, were bringing Health Care Costs down and the good news there is Health Care Costs are
rising at the slowest rate in 50 years. Thats the number one driver. Medicare and medicaid, the cost of medicine is the number one driver. Thats exactly right. One other good thing because costs are rising more slowly, if you look out to 2020 cbo says our costs will be lower by 188 billion just in that one year. So we are taking steps, the Affordable Care act is contributing to this slower growth. The recovery of the economy is an important piece of it. All of those things are key things, we need to keep pushing on those. Immigration reform is another key thing we can do. That would save about a trillion dollars to 6r years if we could gelt immigration reform. Youre beginning to see the effects of the president s policies and it appears to be good news on the economy, jobs front more people are working. The reason people are not feeling this good news wages are
stagnant. They are not make ends meet. We do see americans perceiving the economy as getting better. Lots of folks going back to work. The president gets letters all the time from people who have gotten a job these last few years. 1. 3 drop in the Unemployment Rate in the last year. Thats the fastest weve seen in about 30 years. Youre right. Wages have been not just over the last few years but over a few decades one of the Biggest Challenges that we had. Its accelerated a bit. We got to take additional steps. Raising the minimum wage. Investing more in things like infrastructure. Investing in peoples skills so they can ge that better job when it comes open. Theres a range of thing we need to do and the president is focused on doing those things. Shaun donovan thank you so much. Great to have you on the show. Congratulations. At least for this week.

Everyone has retirement questions. So ameriprise created the exclusive confident retirement approach. Now you and your ameripise advisor. Can get the real answers you need. Start building your confident retirement today. Richard haas, war,
pestilence, dogs living with cats. Almost biblical. Where are we right now with the president s strategy towards isis. We hear they are getting fighter jets. Whats our strategy . You dont know, do you . Its not a question of whether i know, its a question of whether they know. There you go. Were beginning to see two things are not working. One in syria the absence of a ground partner, turkey has not come over. For the first time were seeing the Administration Work directly with the kurds inside of syria. Thats a big break. Secondly in iraq what i think youll see is increasing work around the Iraqi Government. Again direct support for the kurds, for the sunni arabs, our partners the Iraqi Government. The new Iraqi Government is weak. Looks like the old Iraqi Government. A lot of people said theres got to be Ground Troops of some kind. You cant do it just from taxpayer. We hoped we would find partners. You say thats not been the most fruitful enterprise. Will we see american Ground Troops . Youve seen them increasingly inside iraq. We did it all without a status of forces agreement. The administration said that was the reason we couldnt have iraqi forces stay in iraq and now more than 1,000 americans are there without the iraqi political system. Shows theres more wiggle room than people thought. Yeah. Youll see increasing numbers in iraq particularly working directly with kurds and sunni tribes and less likely but potentially in places inside syria. If we have zones where kurds begin to control certain territory not inconceivable youll see American Special forces there. Dorian . Im curious about the nonmilitary strategy. What is it up to this point besides just the air strikes and potential Ground Troops. We know we need more than military option to defeat isis. Whats the strategy . Short term and long term. Short term to reduce the philosophy recruits through places like turkey and reduce the flow of funding through places like qatar and saudi arabia. Youre not seeing a diplomatic strategy to calm things down in syria. But at some point you could have low level talks with russia and iran. The long term is to do something thats so deeply flawed about the arab world. We cant fix the entire world. What if we just shake up the table right now and say, you know what . Well double downtown kurds. The kurds are a tough fighting unit. If we can get them to take care of their region across the north, syria will not like it. Turkey is not is going to like it. We really dont care. We need to bring order to this chaos. Can they do it . Certainly inside of iraq thats your major partner and letting go of the fiction that you have this intact country called iraq. I would let go of it. When this is all said and done you wont have something called
syria and iraq any more. This border is meaningless. Youll have clusters. Youll have a kurdish area. Sunni areas. Shiite areas. This idea of this hetehogenous middle east is over. Joe bidens idea from 2003. More radical than that. We were talking about areas of autonomy. Hes called the president s pick for ebola czar. The chairman who heard testimony on ebola joins the show. New polls are giving a revealing look at the direction of the country with less than 15 days way until the elections.

Look at that beautiful shot of new york city. It felt like fall this morning. It was cold. Cold this morning. Chilly. Richard haas and Dorian Warren are still with us at the table. Much to talk about today. Well start with the midterms. Politics. Its getting hotter. How did the giants do yesterday . Did the giants win . Because i seriously i thought this was a circle just got broken. How about the jets . They didnt play did they . Did the jets play . What. Thursday. Thats right. Okay. Moral victory but an actual loss. Giants throats the cowboys who are a very good team as it turns out. Really . The eagles and the cowboys. The tony romo still dating jessica simpson. Im going back to politics now. Hillary clinton redskins won. I saw that on the front page of the the Washington Post. Lets go the news. Hillary clinton leads all other names tested by more than 50 points in these polls and for the moment primary would be hers to lose. Mitt romney ahead of the republican field by at least ten points. Hes winning with women and voters alike. Lets stop right there. Keep going. Who identify themselves as very conservative. But without him, the picture is muddier with jeb bush edging out senator rand paul and mike
huckabee and newcomer ben carson is right behind National Figures like marco rubio and Chris Christie. Lets go back to that first one that has mitt romney up ahead. Hes about ten points ahead of everybody else. Pretty crazy, richard haas, isnt it, that mitt romney by not running now puts himself in first and you have to go back to that Foreign Policy debate where time and time again mitt romnbaa mocked him for being concerned about vladimir putin, for being concerned about other things that have blown up in the past couple of years. I think thats why voters are going wait a second this guy called it right. Other polls say the democratic advantage in handling Foreign Policy and National Security is fading. That will help republicans. Mitt romney represents a kind of he hasnt been around so that makes him slightly fresher
and he represents a managerial republicanism. In the other poll jeb bush is leading. These are not ideological people. Its interesting, in the poll that has mitt romney ahead he leads with female voters, and conservative voters. You dont see those two things going together very often. And then, willie, theres nbc news wall street journal poll that came out that talked about how americans are really concerned one of the questions they asked the politico its a politic sko poll. This is nbc news wall street journal poll republicans have a fivepoint lead. These things dont mean nothing until you get close to the election. Were two weeks away. I wonder if were starting to see a slight trend towards a Republican Party thats concerning a lot of democrats. Same thing whoever the president is, theres a reaction to that party. So they want to see some republican control. They already have control of the house. They want to see control of the senate as well. The question you were talking about with politico is the country completely out of control. I love it. This is what year it is. Can we see the number here. Because this question is the country completely out of control. This is not a question that pollsters usually ask voters. This is a question one parent usually asks another parent about their teenage boy. Right. Is he completely out of control. 64 of americans think things are completely out of control. Well be serious here for one second. If democrats end up losing control of the senate and lose a lot of seats in the house, its not going to be really hard to look back and look at the administrations handling of isis and the ebola crisis combined with everything else. Whats wrong with their handling of isis. Are we done . Is the war over and we lost it . Im confused. You, obviously, are confused because if you look its messaging issue. Thats what they lost control of. The president s poll numbers have completely collapsed. Its not a messaging issue. You have the president of the United States who has made one miscalculation after another for a very long time. And youre seeing that in the polls. Now we could all have the debate. Ive been here supportive of the president over the past month or so in many respects. Im just simply saying, though, americans see whats happening in the middle east and they see whats happening with the ebola crisis and it looks like the president has been out of control for the past two or three months. Whether thats fair or not fair its not. You may not think that so you wouldnt be one of the 20 that think america is going in the right direction. The overwhelming majority of the
teaming masses that watch you as you jump off to the south of france disagree. The administration did itself no favor. It set itself up for defeat. They said isis was a jv team. Then it turned out to be a bigger problem. Then on ebola dont get worried. Its a case of a little bit of over promising and underdelivering. Thats where the administration did itself no favors. Family members of the Liberian National that died you say are saying the same thing. Willie, this hurts me. Can you intervene, willie on my behalf. You two need to work this out. Hes done. Hes out of control. No more counselling. He cant at this point. All right. Whats next family members of the Liberian National who died in dallas from ebola are marking an important milestone this
morning. Three weeks of confinement are not over for thomas eric duncans fiancee and other relatives who had close contact with him. Family members are flonger considered at risk for the virus and a Dallas Health care worker who was being monitored on a cruise ship also tested negative for ebola. Meanwhile the pentagon says its preparing a 30 member Quick Strike Team in case there are more ebola cases diagnosed in the u. S. It comes as a New York Times reporter over the weekend that president obama is not pleased with how aids initially responded. You know how the white house leaked this out the president is angry with his staff members. Sure. Absolutely. Leak that out. The president announced ron klain former chief of staff to Vice President joe biden and former Vice President al gore will oversee the federal response. So one thing we have noticed, you look at this family thats now, duncans family thats freed up, it seems i think
its really telling that the people who treated duncan when he first went to the hospital, when he a fever, had ebola but not the later stages of ebola no one got infected in that time period, when no one was wearing hazmat suits or taking precautions, then he went home and came back in advance stages even with the hazmat suits, unbelievably contagious. Like a lot of Health Care Workers said, chances are good if youre flying with someone on an airplane even if they have ebola in the early stages you won pick it up. Its in those later stages when it becomes so contagious they still dont know what the proper protocols are now. Joining us now tim murphy of pennsylvania who chairs the oversight and investigations subcommittee, and i guess, first of all, lets talk about the ebola czar. I take it you are critical of this choice. Well, look. This is a very uncertain course were going through here. Theres a lot we dont know about ebola, and we dont know what we dont know. It goes that far. After the hearings it was clear that even the experts have a great deal of concerns with moving forward. I think at this time when america is very worried and very anxious about this we didnt need someone who was a political person who has worked on campaigns before. I didnt hear anybody at that hearing saying please put somebody in charge of us who works on campaigns. Theres is a great deal that still needs to be done in this nation. My request to the president was travel restrictions on nonessential travel. Making sure were training more people. Create more centers who can handle ebola. Advance research at a faster speed. Tell us what Congress Needs to do. Have more transport mechanisms, et cetera and continue to put a great deal of work into africa. Thats the things we need to be focusing on at this time to increase that whole defense perimeter for the United States. Richard haas you suggested he
put somebody like colin powell or mitt romney. I talked somebody like alan malawi, somebody that outside of the political sphere. Its awfully strange to me at least you put somebody in there who worked on political campaigns. Just to be year this is not a shot at ron klain. Its not. This is nothing personal about him. Look this is a disease which is insidious and pervasive. Thousands have died. We dont need somebody who has to have a learning curve but somebody who understands what needs to be done when the physicians and other researchers and people involved with this make a request, someone who involved and knows his logistic, get him on board. This is dangerous. Willie geist is here with a question. Congressman to take a step back, does adding another layer of bureaucracy, somebody else to the problem actually help . Will this make things better . Will we see a rapid
transformation in the way we respond to the crisis . You dont cure bureaucratic problems with more bureaucracy. Right now one of the problems taking place in africa, we have 300 soldiers there and the president has committed several thousand more. The reason why this is a critical time, a number of my grant workers are leaving western africa and traveling throughout africa for other jobs. Theres so many thing that need to be done. My concern is someone who just has worked on other things and nothing to do with this theres too much of a learning curve and more bureaucracy isnt helpful. An ebola czar is an hhs secretary or someone within that. The only reason more bureaucracy might be useful you got all sorts of people inside the u. S. Government and between the u. S. Government and outsiders who never worked together. This may be one of these cases where bureaucratically this makes sense. Youre used to having privatesector, ngo, federal and
so forth. One thing that will change this debate is the ability to detect ebola. Rather than waiting for 21 days, within an hour. But several Drug Companies are very close. Not a vaccine but a Detection Kit almost like a diabetes test within an hour. What a huge difference that will make. The whole debate over travel and screening fundamentally changes. Fda is looking at several drugs. That can be transformative. Congressman tim murphy, thank you very much. One more story here. Tennis star Serena Williams is firing back at comments made by a member of the International Olympic committee who referred to her as one of the quote Williams Brothers and also called her scary. Williams called the comments made by Shamil Tarpischev quote, very insensitive, extremely sexist, racist and bullying. Shamil tarpischev apologized after being fined 25,000 as
head of the Russian Tennis Federation and hes banned from tour involvement for a year. There was a meeting between bib hops and cardinals in pushing for a more inclusive church. The final version said homosexuals have gifts and qualities that should be welcomed by the church. It signaled an openness to divorced catholics by a vote of 11862. Bishops still approved this statement. Nonetheless men and women with homosexual tendencies must be welcomed with respect and delicacy. The pope included the revised statement even though it fell short of a needed twothirds majority. The final edited document shows theres deep divisions within the Catholic Church and conservative catholics won out. During sundays mass pope francis said god is not afraid of new things. He also urged Church Leaders to accept ways that society has changed. Mika dont you love that
statement . I think its a great statement. I think its fantastic that they are having the debate. I think anybody that sits out there this morning and says oh, the Catholic Church is so backwards and so this and so that because they didnt accept the whole thing needs to remember, all right, the church this has been doctrine for over 2,000 years and the United States of america in 2004, republicans won elections by running antigay marriage campaigns, just because we changed as quickly as weve changed in america in ten years doesnt and invatican is going to whip one way suddenly. They are having the discussion, though. And thats extraordinarily important. Its important for the church and its important its a discussion brilliantly being led by this pope. Hes not forcing anything. Hes not trying to sort of push it through unnaturally. Hes really trying to make everybody question their own
consciences and sense of perfection and judgment. Even in the vote theres not condemnation, theres openness. As you said its almost better that things dont get whipped through. When fundamental change happens theres a kay for gradualism. Thats why that one sentence kind of, quite frankly undermines the critics. Gradualism thats certainly a lot more acceptable to, to those in the church that may believe in same sex marriage. Because youve got somebody at the top that you feel like is actually sympathetic to your position and actually human. The most important thing when you walk through the church doors instead of feeling like at outcast you feel like they want you there, willie and you get that sense by looking at this. Hes doing two things. Yes hes speaking out for what believes is the right thing but
its strategic. He know for the church to survive youll have a whole generation of people looking at the doctrine saying this has no relationship to how i see the world. Its not about gays and lesbians. Poverty inequality. A range of crises in the world. This church is in a crisis of membership. This is a huge step forward that legitimatizes the debate and institution and allows people entry instead of exclusion. Still ahead rear admiral john kirby joins us.

Well start with the stuntton news leader. Police belief they may have found the body of hannah graham. Human remains were found outside of charlottesville. No conclusive i. D. But the parents have been notified. Remains were located in the some region where the body of a Virginia Tech student was discovered in 2009 and police have linked 32yearold Jesse Matthew jr. s dna to both women. Hes been charged in grahams disappearance. The usa today, the dea is being used for using a womans identity to create a fakes Facebook Page as port of an ongoing investigation. The woman claimed the agency
used photos from her phone after she was arrested. The dea said she consented by allowing information stored in her cell phone to be used in their investigation. In a letter to the Agency Facebook said the matter is a serious breach of its policies and asked for assurances it hadnt made other fake profiles. The los angeles times, police have arrest ad woman for trying to break into a California Home through the chimney. Around 6 00 in the Morning Police found the woman stuck. This is a photo look at that. Her hands over her head. Where is her santa hat. Shes trapped inside. Took two hours to bust her out using dish soap and dismantling part of the brick facade. Thats a long way down. Whats in that house that was worth that. You punch through the glass in the back door. Willie that didnt work for you. Look at your hand. Usa today turns out more men were cutting back during the recession when it came to having kids. No male pregnancies between 2007 between 2007 and 2009 rates of vasectomies went up. About 5. 8 of men got vasectomies in the worst years for the u. S. Economy that number went up to 7. 5 . Im confused. What are you confused about. Nothing. What are your confused . They didnt want to have babies during the great recession. Right lets move on. Unless you guys want to talk about vasectomies. Give me about 20 years. Microsoft ceo is apologizing after making tone deaf comments about equal pay in the workplace. Joining us now, cnbc john ford has an exclusive interview with
Satya Nadella. How did he do . I think he did pretty well. You can be the judge along with viewers. Satya nadella had gone to a conference called grace hopper conference, which was women in technology and he was asked what should women do when they want to ask for a raise but arent sure how. Basically said well dont ask, just trust that karma will take care of it. When he talked to me he said look it was a mistake. What i said is i gave the advice that i was given that worked for me. I became the ceo of microsoft. I didnt take into account how it would sound to people that feel they have been held back from opportunities in their jobs. Hes working on changing the industry and how industry looks at this. He also said this about how microsoft is doing on these issues. Take a listen. It turns out last year 99. 7 of the mens salaries are what women make. Its different than whats felt across all industries. Were doing well. By the way, im not celebrating any of it. All i said we pay equally if youre at the same level. The real issue is do we have enough people of different ethnicity and women in those levels. Do we have them in our corporate Vice President ranks, are we promoting people as rigorously. Theres other secondary things we have to go after. To your points of course the expectation of anyone should be that a ceo like me should go to work on this and have some principles guided and the two principles that i really want to Stay Grounded on is equal pay for equal work and equal opportunity for equal work and well make progress on that. The interesting part there, guys, equal opportunity piece saying hes looking to make sure that women and other groups, minorities, have the opportunity to be at the same level to make those same amounts as others in the workplace. Interesting conversation. He also is talking about
microsofts cloud initiatives, trying to Push Technology forward, guys. Thank you so much. Mika, you okay now . Did he explain everything okay . Actually, i was surprised. At what . Because he basically said, you know, kind of pointed to culture again. He looked at the way he viewed his own experience. Right. Was narrow about it. What worked for him. Designee has to take his apology a step forward. Like what nancy did when she took over Time Magazine she looked at all the salaries of women and their male counterparts and raised the women to their male counterparts. He needs to take a look at microsofts payroll and needs to bring every women up to the male counterpart. I can tell you they are not paid equally. He needs to make that public. For women to do the same job as men do. Absolutely. Since hes clearly admitting that he has a knowledge gap on the issue. Im curious
he has to learn. Hes sorry. You didnt like what he said. What he said is i was passing on advice that was given me. That seems pretty legit, right . Right. When youre running a company you actually have to include other people besides people with your own culture, world view. What hes saying is hes close minded. That was his problem. Can we go back to those chairs. Get us back to these chairs. Im curious, because these chairs, can they really be comfortable to be sitting in, t. J. . Im uncomfortable. Theysprockets. My answer to that one question which i interpreted super narrowly was wrong bus i answered through my experience through my career and when you
work passionately you see rewards. He said that was a mistake i was looking through my lens. At a womens conference that was his advice. I think he has to do something. I dont think theres anything he can say any more. When we go to womens conferences do you know what mika tells women . Dont act like joe. I do. She does. I say that. How do you think that makes me feel. Maybe find your own authentic graceful way of navigating the negotiations. It breaks my heart in a million pieces. You do well for you, joe. And thats important. It makes me sad. Youre very good at it. Still ahead the long road of political come back. Why some cant quit even after spending time in prison. And the pentagon has helped with a domestic response to the ebola outbreak, and many other items. Morning joe will be right

Im sold a selling machine ready for you alert, only at lq. Com. Its about getting to the finish line. In life, its how you get there that matters most. Like when i found out i had a blood clot in my leg. My doctor said that it could travel to my lungs and become an even bigger problem. So he talked to me about xarelto®. Xarelto® is the first oral prescription blood thinner proven to treat and help prevent dvt and pe that doesnt require regular blood monitoring or changes to your diet. For a prior dvt i took warfarin, which required routine blood testing and dietary restrictions. Not this time. While i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didnt have to deal with that blood monitoring routine. Dont stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. While taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on
xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of dvt and pe, with no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto® was the right move for me. Ask your doctor about xarelto® today. Captain obvious this is a creepy room. Man oh hey, captain obvious. Captain obvious you should have used hotels. Com.

The latest episodes of the top 100 shows are preloaded and ready to watch with xfinity on demand. Here with us now pentagon
press secretary, rear admiral john kirby. Thank you very much for being on the show with us this morning, sir. First of all, describe this 30 person Rapid Response ebola medical support team. I guess better late than never and also how it will help prevent and protect in this country . Well this team is going to be on what we called prepare to deploy. 20 nurses, five Infectious Disease experts and five trainers. They are going to get down to texas for some training this week. So that they have all the protocols in place and they know what to do and the preparations and put on this prepare to deploy order status where they can be ready in 72 hours. That period will last for 30 days. Be on that ready status for 30 days to go assist civilian medical authorities anywhere in the country that might need them. Admiral, its willie geist. What about the source of ebola. Most experts think if you want to stop the outbreak you have to
go to west africa to do it. What exactly is their role there, what can the United States military do . In west africa in keeping with the requirements laid on us by the government of liberia and usaid and cdc we have 5450 troops. Those troops are focused on four line of effort. Mostly theres a lot of construction going on. Were trying to get these emergency treatment units stood up and built, a training site built. Two Emergency Training units that were working on are on track. First one will to be done by the end of this month. Second one probably the first week of november. Weather has been a factor. Its monsoon season down there, a lot of rain slowing us down. The infrastructure is not so good in some of these places where were building these units there are no roads and where there are roads they are mud most of the time. Slower than we would like it to go. Thats what our troops are focused on. Admiral, its richard haas. Can you explain how its possible legally for u. S. Armed forces to take on the sort of role youre describing within the United States given the socalled rules and what they are allowed to do within our territory. Sure. We actually do have the legal authorities to do this. This isnt going to violate a Law Enforcement role. This is nothing more than potential support and i stress potential support to civilian medical authorities if and only if they ask for that. Theres novi allocation. The Northern Command commander has the authorities he needs to get this team ready to go. Admiral, im curious what your response is to critics of the recently appointed ebola czar ron klain. Do you think he doesnt have a Public Health or medical background but do you think hes equipped to deal with the crisis and coordinate among different agencies and the privatesector . Our job is to support him and whatever he needs us to do. Our job is to support the interagency and the government and thats what were doing. Admiral lets move on to isis. We hear isis may have gotten control of fighter jets. What can you tell us. We have no indication they have fighter jets in their capability or capability to fly them and we dont have any indication they have any air defense or antiair capability at all. Were watching it very closely. Any concerns about that. Are you making preparations for it. Right now do you just dont see that strategically as a limitation for what you want to do over there . We worry about everything here at the pentagon and we make it our business to be concerned about all those kinds of capabilities. Were watching it very, very closely. We dont see any indication they have that capability. Were watching it very, very closely. Whats the situation in central baghdad right now, central iraq and baghdad. Reports coming over the ap of another suicide bombing. 17 dead. 17 dead. Appears to a lot of observers and i dont expect you to make
any comment along these lines but people saying this Iraqi Government not much better than the last Iraqi Government. How do we up the ante in helping the kurds. What are we doing to help the kurds help themselves and help us in the process . Theres a lot in there so let me break it down. One of these days ill learn how to ask a simple question. How are you doing today, admiral. Good, bad . How is your back stroke . Lets start with the kurds. What are we doing to help the kurds. As you may have noticed last night we did an air drop of supplies to the Kurdish Forces inside kobani and trying to defend that city against isil. Every indication we have the morning the bundles made to it the hand we want to make them to, at least the vast majority did. Were trying shore up their ability to defend that town. North of iraq, our partner nations, Many Coalition nations are resupplying Kurdish Forces there in the north. We have a joint operations
center in erbil. They are holding their own. No question about that. Lets go down baghdad. You talked about the ied attack. No surprise to anybody that isil wants to continue to threaten the capital city. This is a group that not only is a group of terrorists but they want to grab ground. They want infrastructure. They have these governs designs, this caliphate vision. It should come as no surprise they are threatening baghdad. That said we do not assess that baghdad is under imminent threat right now. Theres no masses of formation of isil fighters around the capital and Iraqi Security fors are doing a good job stiffening their defenses. Good to hear. Last week a lot of people were talking about western baghdad being at risk. Thank you for being with us. We appreciate it as always. Well work on simplifying my questions. Four goals by the way really quickly. Richard, it is very important what he said, baghdad right now doesnt seem like its under any threat. There was a concern because anbar province, everything west of baghdad seems to be going intoy isis hands. Lot of concern this is going move towards baghdad right now. Not imminent but still fundamental challenge about getting the sunni tribes to work with us rather than deferred to isis. Theres real questions whether this Iraqi Government can organize and motivate Iraqi Government troops to fight for their country. Thats an open question. Okay. Still ahead on morning joe, four goals in the final three minutes of the game. I almost a heart attack. Did you . Yes, i did. Roger bennett has the stunning play. Stop. Youre terrible. But first two men who are

Less than two weeks from tomorrow we talk about a lot of exciting elections. Three involving guys you heard of. Edwin edwards famed former governor of louisiana now running for congress. Designee loves america. The long time mayor of providence spent some time in the federal lock up. Running again. Larry pressler after almost 20 years out of office is running for his seat in south dakota. Has pressler been to jail no. Why are we profiling him
snooms a political come back. I get that theme. This 87yearold man is working the phones for votes. Im a politician that knows how to deliver on his promises. Im governor edwards. Edwards as in Edwin Edwards, congressat candidate who spent 16 years as governor of louisiana. Before spending 8 1 2 years in prison for racketeering. Hes one of a crop of candidates seeking political redemption this fall. Theres 76yearold Larry Pressler out for a morning jog and stunning the political world as he runs neck and neck in a race to win back the south Dakota Senate seat he lost in 1996. I have my seniority. I can be a powerful senator for south dakota. One person is not so thrilled about the prospects of a come back. His wife. Shes not excited about coming back to washington. Theres the legendary former six term providence mayor buddy,
looking to return to city hall after a prison stint of nearly five years for conspiracy to commit racketeering. I did my time. In this system you get found guilty you pay the price. Ive always proclaimed my innocence. Released in 2007 from what he calls the federal gated community, the 73yearold wants his old job back, Holding Court on this night at a drag bingo game. Under the b for buddy, 6. Why dive back in. We had over a decade of decline in the city. Thats number one. I was looking to see who was running and none had the vision. He has his share of critics but what polls show providence just might give buddy another try. I got you out of a bad time in 1980. Well im glad you remember it. Even over the phone, everyone knows exact leadership who Edwin Edwards is. Governor, did that gentleman say you got him out of a bad time in 1980. Thats what he said. Do you recall . He was very grateful. Edwards spent the evening this way, cold calling and then catching up with voters who feel like old friends. Hi. Edwards who many people in louisiana still call the governor and who now has a 1yearold son was first elected to congress 50 years ago. You know, a lady asked me the other day, youre 87 years old, youre retired, why dont you do what you feel like doing. I said lady thats what im doing. Hes not worried about those 8 1 2 years behind bars. I did nothing wrong. I want to point something out i had nothing to do with my politics. Nothing to do with my role as governor. The Justice System disagreed. As we walked around baton rouge people were overwhelmingly happy to see him. I think he would be an excellent congressman. Edwards provided american politics with some of its most famous quotes like this one from his 1983 gubernatorial race. That campaign provide another perhaps your most famous quote which is the only way i can lose this race is if i got caught in bed with a dead woman or live boy and, you know, there was no chance of that happening. Edwin edwards, ladies and gentlemen. Wow. So, willie, hes running for congress. Why did he decide to run for Congress Instead of governor. Good question. He said i rather run for governor but the law in the state of louisiana says you have to wait 15 years from the time youre released from prison to run. So he can do it when hes 99. That 87yearold has a 1yearold baby. He has a 1yearold baby, yes. Why did he meet his wife. Shes a woman that visited him in prison. Grew up while he was governor of her state. They got married and now they have a 1yearold. How old is she. 35, 36. I love america. The deal on him its a very
red district. Hes a democrat. People think hell get in the runoff. Hes still an underdog. Buddy is leading in the polls. Larry pressler is tight as well. He slowed them once. The only way he would no, no. They asked him if he was going to lose or not. This is his 1983 race. Only way i could lose if i was found in bed with a dead woman or a live boy. There was a year, willie, where he was running for governor. He was running against david duke. Thats my favorite. The klansman. His Bumper Sticker was vote for the crook. Go ahead dean it. So they running against david duke the grand which standard of the klan. He was asked do you have anything in common. The only thing we have in common
is we both whiz under the sheets. Still ahead, madonna once gave danny aiello a key piece of advice. Well find out what that is when he joins us. Roger bennett is here with the football frenzy. Im relieved roger is here. Well be right back. We got Roger Bennett here. Hes the analyst for blazers. Roger. Hey, roger. Im telling you, man, so liverpool playing the worst team, qpr. The jacksonville jaguars. Im watching the game. Theyre ahead 10. Im thinking, were going to get an ugly three points but ill take it. What happened then . This was mario bartelle, their longsufferering scorer. An own goal. So qpr scores a goal for liverpool. Qpr did the unexpected, they
righted a wrong by equalizing chaos in the lir poverpool defe. It looked like it was going to be 11. Then a brief moment of wonder with one minute to go. Liverpool look to have by the way, by the way cuntino, most important moment of the game for us. Vargas again, chaos in the liverpool defense. The protestant work ethic is reaffirmed. Liverpool bang the ball home. Second own goal. I will say belotelli was in good position there. You think so . He did earlier in the game shoot over the bar. Mario barotelli is kind like the Manny Ramirez of football. How many has he scored this season . None in the epl, one in the champions league. He missed one from about four feet yesterday. A huge disappointment. Liverpool only have two weaknesses. One is they cant attack and the other is they cant defense. They struggled against queens park rangers. Shes a big qpr fan. Dear god, its going to be very ugly. Very bad news, sturridge out for another month. He actually looked at his leg and it broke in half again. Its just miserable. Lets go on to chelsea. No doubt, most dominant team. Five points clear at the top of the table. Unbelievable, five points clear this early. The passing along the edge of the box. Its like hypnotizing, the ball movement. You hip ypnotize me, roger. Id like that to be my phone
message. So up on man city. Southampton. Okay, heres the deal, for anybody that doesnt follow, southampton actually traded away their entire squad, their entire squad. Theyre the hottest team right now in english football. They won 80 this weekend. They are americas darlings. Manchester united play this afternoon on nbc sports. Take the afternoon off, america. Nobodyser sugge ee eer ever southampton are americas darling but now that youve said it, im going to adopt that as well. Hows your show going . Tonight, 10 00, thank you, on nbc sports. The first week, mika, the first week ratings, actually higher than American Idol in its first season. And the voice combined. Up next, our friends at politico know how to ask a poll question, that is for sure. Well tell you how many people think things are, quote, completely out of control. Also ahead, is it a bad thing if
you have to wear a gas mask while running a marathon . Plus, a Daring Rescue of a man from a burning building. Those details when morning joe returns. There was no question she was the one.

No. Soup oh soup loaded with vegetables. Packed with taste. Over 12,000 financial advisors. So, how are things . Good, good. Nearly 800 billion dollars in assets under care. Let me just put this away. How did edward jones get so big . Could you teach our kids that trick . By not acting that way. Ok, last quarter. Its how edward jones makes sense of investing. Welcome back to morning joe. Dorian warren is back at the table along with joe, willie and me. Last night Patton Manning broke the
alltime career touchdown record that was held by brett favre. Yeah. He did it in the first half. He needed three and he threw three in the first half, just for good measure. Hes going to make the case, hes the greatest of all time. It could be one of those two guys. And hes done it with huhumilit. Hes carried himself well off the field. And now perhaps the greatest quarterback ever. Unbelievable. Wow. Well, that must be fun for you guys. It made my weekend. Im sure you were in front of the tv watching football all weekend. Seeing alabama win 590. I did notice they won in the biggest way ever. They woke up. The poor little team well, they were terrible obviously. Did they even score a point . No, they didnt. They wanted to, if that counts. Such a sports analyst. Im going to move on to news and
politic, now. Poor little team. Okay. The midterms are now weeks away and theyre jockeying for position with not just the congress at stake but the white house as well two years from now. Hillary clinton leads all other names tested by more than 50 points, and for the moment, the primary would be hers to lose. Mitt romney is ahead of the Republican Party field by at least five points. Hes winning by women and voters who identify as very conservative. Without him, the pictures muddier. Newcomer ben carson is right behind National Figures like marco rubio and Chris Christie. Likely voters prefer a Republicanled Congress by a fivepoint spread. Highprofile surrogates have fanned the country for both sides. Former president bill clinton and senator Elizabeth Warren were in arkansas and iowa over the weekend for democrats. President obama has been noticeably absent. That same Washington Post poll shows why his approval is upside down on everything from the economy to ebola. But he was back on the trail yesterday. For gubernatorial candidates. In the case of the maryland event, reuters reports, some of the crowd left early, while the president was still speaking. The only thing they said yes to was another massive tax cut for millionaires. I know thats surprising, but thats what happened. So you know who theyre fighting for. And it aint you. Its not you. Theyre not. Willie, a lot to talk about. Lets first of all go back to the polls. The democratic side, Hillary Clinton up 50 points. On the republican side, though, mitt romney ahead. Comfortably lapping the field. If he decides to run. Now, the romneys can say theyre not interested in running, but the more they hear this guy is a prohibitive favorite without even trying, ive got to say, the more likely theyre going to jump to this thing. Every time we look at these, its obviously very, very early. We dont know exactly what these polls mean except there does appear to be some indecision in the Republican Party. Does jeb get in. Does crihristie make his way in . Theyre already thinking about the last guy. We say that poll, midterm polls, really dont matter until you get to the last few weeks. We are the last few weeks away. Nbc news wall street journal poll shows republicans have a fivepoint lead. Thats something to pay a lot of attention to. Unless youre two weeks out and other polls start showing this trend. Suddenly, that is a big concern for democrats. All the polls that we have
se in the last few weeks and months show if the republican can take over the sete, theres some key races that could turn out any way in the next two weeks, depending what happens. Weve seen already in several state, grimes in kentucky, in terms of her position. The president is trying to mobilize black voters in some key states. Georgia, maryland. It will be interesting to watch what happens these last two weeks. The predictions from the polls show the Republicans Holding on to the house of course and possibly taking over the senate. Ive mentioned Elizabeth Warren. As she hits the campaign trail, she brings an aggressively populist message, especially on the American Financial system. Take a look. I think the game is rigged here. I think washington actually works really well for those who have lots of money, lots of lobbyists, lots of lawyers. I remember the day that i walked in to my folks bedroom
and my mother had her best dress out. Trying to figure out what this meant. I was 12. She was crying, talking to herself, we will not lose this house. And finally, she wiped her face, she pulled on that dress, put on her lipstick, stepped into her high heels and she walked to the Sears Roebuck where she got a minimum wage job in an america where a minimum wage job would support a family of three. And thats why we survived. Veteran iowa reporter Jennifer Jacobs tweeted, i think its fair to say that the crowd of iowa dems absolutely loved Elizabeth Warrens debut speech here of the 2016 president ial cycle. Is she going to run, mika . I dont know. I really dont know. Because i think Hillary Clinton
has this. I would love to see her in the conversation, thats for sure. She definitely is putting herself into a big position if she can. Do you think hillary clearing the field is ultimately bad for her and democrats . The fact you have someone like Elizabeth Warren that has a good message. Cant even be talked about in serious terms until Hillary Clinton decides . Why not talk about everybody equally now . I think its really bad for the Democratic Party that they are that theyre placing a crown on somebody two years out, saying, you are going to be the heir apparent. What weve seen with hillary, what that makes her do is move more to the center, more to the center right. She gets cozier with wall street because she doesnt think anybodys going to challenge her on the left. She gets cozier with a Foreign Policy position. Again, ive been calling her neocon for years. Certainly one of the most
militaristic democrats thatser held high office. Shes always, always the biggest hawk in the room. And i find it stunning that the Democratic Party will not even allow a challenge to this sort of warmedover conservativism she presents. I agree, joe. I agree wholeheartedly with you. The republicans are in better shape because theyre going to have a competitive primary season. But remember, we were saying the same thing in 2006 and 2007. This is hillarys if she wants it. And then somebody came out of almost, you know, the shadows so to speak and emerge as this new candidate. I think the same could happen this time as well. The battles we covered, president obama and senator clinton were scratching, claws. Er got better. Hillary went from being an absolutely myself rabl candidate on the field to being i think an
extraordinarily effective, tough, compelling speaker. She will not be with this sort of rose garden strategy without the rose garden, which is what shes going to do. Shes going to fly at 30,000 feet, then shes going to get into a general election and shes going to get blindsided. Ive seen it time and time again. This is very bad for the Democratic Party. You see this team around her making it clear to others they need to keep their distance. I think sometimes having your being challenged and bringing your opponents closer to you and letting people into the process makes for exactly what you just described, a process that makes everybody better. And the best candidate emerges. I think it would be great if Elizabeth Warren joined it. I really do. Even for the conversation itself. And to help define the Party Principles going into the next. Absolutely. Politico is out with a new battleground poll showing a
pessimistic view. 64 think things are out of control. Look at that, 64 . We are completely out of control. America, a runaway beer truck. Ive never seen that question asked. Do you think that we are a runaway beer truck . Careening through the appalachians about to go into a death spiral. The question, are things completely out of control . Well have to ask mike about that. So lets bring in the chief White House Correspondent for politico, mike allen. Mike, first of all, whats with your questions, man . Its very grim out there. Of course, who does this hurt . Does this hurt the democrats since the president s in power . Does it hurt republicans since the republicans are running the senate . Wh who gains from this very dour mood . In the case of the nation, thats the president. So in senate races, this mostly benefits democrats. In states show, its the governor whos driving the beer truck. A great example of where this could hurt a republican is in wisconsin. Where Governor Scott walkers very dependent on the right track, wrong track feeling in his country. In his state. Throughout this cycle, theres been this lowgrade worry about the economy and jobs. What were seeing here, regardless of how you word the question, is now a red hot worry on a number of fronts. This includes as you delve into the polls, and i think we have some of these specifics, to show our viewers. People are worried about their Health Insurance and whether or
not those prices are going up. Theyre very worried about the threat to the homeland the Islamic State could pose. This is the most interesting one. You mentioned this at the top. President ial management. Believe it or not, a tie between george w. Bush and barack obama. About whos better off running the government. Wow. All right. Well, there you go, in terms of managing the federal government, you see the numbers there. Wow. George w. Bush saying more effective. Barack obama under george w. Bush. Certainly something that no one in the white house would have thought six years ago. Four years ago. Two years ago. But there it is. Another jump number that jumped out at me, 20 , only 20 think the country is on the right
track. Mike allen, thank you. We had a debate on the show last week about that. It got kind of rough between Steve Rattner and Nicole Wallace over whos better at running the country. Well, can we just say katrina versus ebola and there was not an argument here. Can we just say that both president s have been very challenged in their leadership abilities for Different Reasons . Yes. I think its interesting to see the republicans respond to ron klain being chosen as sort of the i guess its not officially ebola czar but running the ebola fallout now in this country. Theyre lining up. We could play eight sound bites of people criticizing the decision at every turn. What did you think of that . Look, i think its obvious that people are like, why doesnt he have the medical experience . Right now, its about trying to get the different organizations to work in sync with each other. For me, it wasnt that he didnt have the medical background. I would have loved to seen somebody like colin powell. Emergency response. Military. Somebody like alan mulaly in. With this, again, maybe ron will do a great job. But here again, you have somebody that barack obama knows, that Barack Obamas comfortable with, thats inside the cocoon, not going to challenge anything. I think a lot of americans, if you wanted to make americans feel more comfortable, he would have gotten somebody like a colin powell or somebody from industry that knew how to run things. I see it, although i also think what we said in the set is that a lot of it is the optics of what theyre already doing that is being channeled appropriately. Perhaps thats one of his great
strength, strategizing and also trying to make the different departments work together. I get it. It was just interesting to see them line up. The criticism. This is what weve seen throughout this entire presidency. Just potshots right and let. I dont thing its the potshots everything he does. No, i dont think its potshots to say barack obama has serious leadership challenges that look, you have the grimmest face. I guarantee you, i will be glad to take bets. Historians are going to be writing and theyre going to be lumping together george w. Bush and barack obama as two people that dont we just had this conversation oh, my god a range of issues, but maybe as far as leadership, knowing how to effectively run the white house, effectively run washington, d. C. , effectively
how to run we should have a Surgeon General in place which i look forward, saying i look forward to reading that. I dont know whos going to write it. Id be happy to place that bet. Still ahead on morning joe, oscar nominated Actor Danny Aiello will join the table. Why hes relieved he didnt win that Academy Award. Politico has an interesting piece and the author will join us ahead. But first, bill karins with a check of the forecast. Joe knew not to say anything during that last sentence.

No, its a cold rainy noreaster. Some of that will be on the back side too. This is a little bit interesting, down in florida. A lot of heavy rain projected down there in cuba. Maybe miami and the keys. Thats where we could be dealing with tropical moisture. As far as the temperatures go during that noreaster in boston, upper 50s to low 60s. Not snow, just a cold drizzly rain that will take down a lot of those beautiful leaves at their peak in southern new england. The southeast is looking pretty good too.

And from washington, senior congressional reporter for politico, manu roju. He writes, obamas standing with women hurts senate democrats. Reads, with two weeks until election it a, the president s diminished standing with women is quickly becoming one of the biggest liabilities facing democrats as they struggle to hang on to the senate majority. In battleground states across the country, obama is under water with female voters, especially women unaffiliated with the political party. And its making it harder for democrats to take advantage of the gender gap according to public polling and democratic so this is really surprising for a lot of people, if you listen to the chattering classes on tv, if you read open edds, you hear about the republicans, quote, war on women. Apparently everybodys paying
attention to the democratic talking point except women. Whats going on here . Its not that the republicans are winning women voters, its that theyre not losing women voters as badly as they have been in the past election cycles. A lot of that has to do with the president s standing in the polls with these women voters. But why is the president losing numbers, losing support from women . Its his general disapproval of the way hes handling the office. Its the malaise that the voters feel about the direction of the country. You add up all the factors that are contributing to why the president is sagging with voters across the board, and that includes women, particularly unaffiliated women. In states even like colorado, where hes carried twice and which he carried with the majority of women voters. Now he is about 60 disapproval of rating among women voters in colorado. And thats hurting mark udall, whos only beating corey gardner
by nine points among women voters but hes losing men by 17 points. In order to win on election day, mark udall really needs to drive up female voters. Thats a problem when the president is is under water. Look at this, in alaska, you actually have the democrat, beg gi beg begich, under water. Very surprising here, look at that, in kentucky, Allison Grimes really in a dead heat with Mitch Mcconnell. What do you think is behind these numbers . Especially withm manu saying theyre losing women. I didnt know they had any. This year, far more disciplined. They have their rabbie shots. Nobodys trying to redefine rape, thats a good move. Theyve got themselves a little better disciplined. But, you know, the fact is that obamas down with everybody, lets face it, and i think that particularly for women, i dont think it makes them feel safe. I think theyre feeling unsafe. They feel unsafe economically. Theyre feeling unsafe with regard to isis. What they feel unsafe about is the government response to different crisis. I think theyre beginning to feel a bit that obamas like that guy in the corner office, you know, whos too cool for school, call, a meeting, says this has to change, doesnt put anything in place to make sure it does change, then it goes wrong and hes blaming everybody. At the same time, we ought to think about what republicans are doing for women. Which is very little, you know. I mean, they were against well, this president they blocked the paycheck fairness act the fourth time since 2012. You know, they are really just not helping women at all. This gap in the economy is terrible. The fact that women are losing their jobs even more than men because of this whole kind of parttime issue and the economys terrible. So, you know, its not good. You know, though, thomas, voters vote in their selfinterest. Again, you can look at specific pieces of legislation where the president , as mikas said for some time, has have it right on issues women should care about. But overall, there still is a big question mark over the president and the Democratic Party and his policies. Well, i think Janet Jackson said it best, what have you done for me lately. The first thing the president did was sign the Lily Ledbetter act. And create the council on women and girls. I think women are looking forward, not looking in reverse. I think allison lunder son grimes is the candidate to watch would wont even admit she voted for the president because she
fears that would bag her when she goes out to the polls. Shed rather have hillary come out and hold hands with her, which is amazing to think thats better for her as a candidate in kentucky than to have the president come out and be by his side. Just a very robotic candidate. She doesnt know how to answer. She could have given a strong nonanswer and tell you i didnt vote for the guy. When it comes to women in line with women interests, this will be the first time kentucky sends a women senator to washington, d. C. , interested in seeing what allison lunder son grimes could do. Take Mitch Mcconnell out. Someone whos been in washington for a very long time. Although he brings home the bacon for kentucky, thats for sure. Narrow definition we do have two more weeks. I want to follow up with the
questions tina brought up. Whether women feel secure. 37 approve, 53 disapprove. Isis, 35 approve, 51 disapprove. Ebola, upside down, only by a couple of points. How much of this is that security question that tina was talking about . Not just domestic security but interNational Security and the whole kit and ka bootle. If you really push on abortion issues like abortion rights, paycheck fairness act, when women voters are concerned about their Economic Security or just the National Security issues are ebola or isis. Those social issues may not resonate as well with some voters that they need to turn out to the polls on election day. So i think youre seeing some of the limits on that in some key states like kentucky which you
just mentioned. Tina, i thought it was very interesting, the denver post, certainly not a conservative newspaper, endorsed carrie gardner. Said, were not stupid and women are not stupid. All youre talking about is contraception as if youre talking about mark udall, as if your republican opponent wants to take away contraception. I wonder if democrats are just sort of playing by the old rule book . Republicans hate women and voters are just a little more intelligence than that its a more sophisticated public period. Everyone understands these are wedge issues. The lack of jobs. These are the things women are caring about. I think everybody felt a slight sigh of relief when chuck hagel
announced theres a military task force to get into when ebola happens. This is the only one we trust, the military, because we dont trust government anymore. This reflects on obama. He cant portray himself as a person frustrated with government when he is government. Thank you so much. Tinas going to san antonio, by the way. Yes, yes, were doing women in the world texas on wednesday. Fantastic amount of good stuff happening there. I love it. Manu, thank you so much. We hope to see you again. Tina, come back.

I dont know why were playing Smashing Pumpkins music in and out of this tease. Confusing. State college in New Hampshire i love keys. Thats a great college. To take action against the students who took things way too far. What happened . The party is the annual tradition there. As nbcs ron mott reports, this years event saw unprecedented mayhem and destruction. Riot police fired pepper spray into unruly crowds of young people after violence erupted just off the Key State College campus in New Hampshire starting saturday afternoon and lingering well into predawn
hours. They just started walking on street with, like, mace, tear gas. Authorities say both students and nonstudents from around the region drove the disturbances, raucous house parties that spilled on to city streets, overshallowing the annual pumpkin festival taking place ne nearby. The past four years have never been like this, its never, ever been this chaotic. Fires were set, vehicles damaged, campus lights toppled, bottles thrown, what officials describe as alcoholfueled unrest that left dozens with minor injuries. At least 14 arrested. Started a bonfire, using the fence to fuel the fire. They were actually jumping off a pickup truck parked in front and body surfing. Finally, the riot police came. Wow. The president thats crazy, man. Says officials will identify who was involved and some students may be expelled. Theres that one guy, you see, he goes hey, you know, they
came at us with pepper spray. Dude, if you flip police cars, theyre going to come at you with pepper spray. I mean, come on. Lets go to business before the bell now. Lets move on. With cnbcs brian sullivan. Where do you want to start . A couple things here. The story that caught my eye this morning, good morning, by the way, according to numerous reports, fannie mae and freddie m mac, the companies that guarantee about 60 of all mortgages written, are working on rules that will ease lending requirements for banks. The criticisms is basically banks have gotten too strict in their lending. Under new rules, again, theyre not enforced, theyre being discussed, it will reduce the amount needed for a downpayment back down to 3 . Okay, so let me just ask, were still bailing fannie and freddie out, not to be the coldhearted s. O. B. , but is this really what we want to talk about now . Until we reform . Im sorry, this is what people were talking about back in 2004,
2005, 2006. Barney frank called republicans racists because republicans on the Banking Committee said, well, we should probably make sure people could actually afford their mortgages before we give people mortgages. It is an interesting debate and discussion, joe. I think youre spot on, at least as far as debate points go. The criticism is banks and fannie and freddie were way too easy. Now some say theyre way too hard. This 3 thing i think catches eyes because many people agree, no matter what side of the aisle, you have to have a little skin in the game when you put money down on a house. Just putting a downpayment down would make it more likely youre going to remain, make payments. Its out there. Its going to generate a lot debate. Were talking about it. On a different vein today, i know youre a big fan of apple. Apple pay launches today. What does that mean . Mobile payment service. Use that little fingerprint button. And its not in all stores. Whole foods markets, mcdonalds. Its about 220,000 retailers now. Mostly big chains. Starting today, keep an eye out at store checkouts. See if anybodys paying with apple pay. I like it. Thank you.

You know who the character is. Where he comes from. Its built up in your mind. Life itself has changed for me so many different ways. Isnt it amazing, the life you had before . Well, as a kid, i was very sickly kid, and i think that sort molded me throughout. I had eczema as a child. I sat in front of the class where the teacher would be and i would be ripping myself apart with eczema and other kids were looking at me and i thought i was disgusting. I would say things like let me sit in the back or i would start
crying. I did that for a long period of time. I found out the only freedom i had in life was to be able to play sports. I just involved myself in sports. So good in sports that when you were in your first film with de niro, you looked at him and said, he cant really throw the ball. Threw like this. You like doing that. I would say he threw like a woman but today that was back then. We worked with him quite a bit. He was a catcher. We taught him. Also he threw very funny. I said, why dont we try it this way. When i finally saw it, he had his elbow attached and still threw like that. A couple fascinate things. You had a part great actor. Annie hall. You write in the book that you didnt realize your scenes were cut until you were in the movie theater. We were told by the producer of the movie that harvey
fierstein and i did a scene. He said was the best scene in the movie. Naturally, im invited to the premiere. I have family there, was sitting an hour and a half, not in the film. I didnt know how to tell anyone im not in the film. Woody, he never told me. These things its a tough business. You know, danny, much of your work, we all love. We thing we know you so well.

I just saw you lock into comfort. I locked into a comfort zone which is a distraction from all the nasty things that happen out in life. Being an actor for me was a blessing. Because it gave me an opportunity to play other parts. If i, you know, was distraught in this area where it was real life, i was able to play a character and escape into something else. How interesting, one of your most famous lines, michael corleone says hello. Was adlibbed. Joe, ill tell you, i was nervous as hell. Im working with francis. He gave me a part not as a result of an audition but simply interviewing me. Were going to shoot this scene. Were in rehearsal. Michael played the character. I come behind him. Im supposed to choke him. There were no lines. Now, i walk out. I said, lets rehearse. He said action. I come behind him. I thought there should be a line. So like a shmuck i said michael corleone says hello, and i started dragging him to the back. Francis says, what, what did you say . Now i think im in trouble. He said, what did you just say . I said, well, ah, ah, i think i said michael corleone says hello. He said, good, keep it in. Hey, baby. I only knew who i am when im someone else.
