family members who gave me the following statement saying no money or other inducement has been paid, offered or promised and none is expected. brooke? jason, thank you in gadsden. i ll talk to a member of the roy moore campaign live in sgruft a second, but first just in, a new accuser has come forward with her lawyer. gloria allred and accuses moore of assaulting her in 1977. she was a waitress where roy moore was a regular customer and her name is beverly young nelson and he offered to drive her home from work one night and this happened. i got into his car in the passenger seat and he began driving. i thought he would get on the highway, but instead he drove to the back of the restaurant. i was not immediately alarmed as
of a ten-year period and that is a tough number to confront and the type of number that strangled republicans throughout the health care debate and one they ve wanted to avoid up to this point. the revenue idea, brooke, it s very attractive and they re making tough choices and $338 billion would certainly be helpful and the big question now despite what the president tweets is do republican leaders really want to bring health care back into this debate that up to this point has been going somewhat smoothly. as of now the answer is no, but as i said, keep this bookmark this tweet and bookmark this idea. if it comes down to the wire over the next couple of weeks the individual mandate repeal as difficult as it may be is absolutely on the table, brooke. that it s on the table now potentially part of this whole massive conversation, republicans have got to get this done, and if not, it could spell big, big problems for them in 2018. phil mattingly, you are excellent at what you do. tha
the majority in republican hands in the united states senate and so the statement coming from him that even if he wins we need to vote to expel him indicates that he sees roy moore as a real big 2018 electoral problem for potential republican senators like dean heller in nevada, for instance. that s one, two, that s part of the leadership, brooke. corey gardner doesn t give that statement without mitch mcconnell giving his blessing. that is the republican leadership point of view and it takes two-thirds of the senate and 67 votes to expel a number, but this is now the republican party s position that roy moore should be expelled if he wins on december 12th. again, this alabama republican who is helping roy moore out on this campaign saying listen, that message from corey gardner is saying to all of the alabama voters your vote doesn t count because we here in the big senate in washington, we re going to take him down.
i remember talking about the kwoel rolling stone piece and here we are with the former vice president making news. of all of the potential headlines what stood out the most to you? that biden is truly considering a run in 2020. some people raise the age factors, but if donald trump s still in office and he s running it would be two men in their 70s and biden hits a lot of the identity politic check marks of the democratic party. there s not one demographic that doesn t like joe biden, african-americans, women s groups, labor unions, agriculture farmers. most importantly, he wouldn t lose, in my opinion, pennsylvania the way hillary clinton did. he s been able to market himself as the man from scranton for so long and it would be a showdown in the midwest if biden were the nominee in ohio, michigan, and wisconsin. but i do think, brooke, he is going see what happens in 2018. he s going to get out there on
candidate roy moore of sexual abuse when she was 16 years of age. several republicans up on capitol hill have called for roy moore to drop out of the race, but he denies these allegations and says he s not going anywhere. moments ago, corey gardner says if moore wins this race that the senate should vote to expel him. so i ve got brianna keilar. she is back up with us from capitol hill, and our cnn senior washington correspondent and david chalian, cnn political director. brianna, that s a big, big statement and that s taking it farther from talk about corey gardner, farther from he should drop out and if he is voted in we should vote to expel him. reporter: that s right. so you re seeing this official republican press trying to keep roy moore from continuing on the path that he s on, but i also think, brooke, that there is this awareness from the establishment gop that they might not be able to really convince roy moore to not
