but i do very strongly believe that that is between us and our marriage. well, eliza shapiro is with the daily beast and rachel smallkin. is it eliza? elize zachlt. i m sorry. let me go to eliza. i think there are two or maybe a combination. was she doing that because she shares the same ambition that the guy who got in trouble here once again admitted he is in trouble, or is it that she just supports whatever bad news comes with the marriage, for better or for worse? well, chris, thanks for having me. i think it s a combination of the two. i think you know, she said i love him, i forgave him, i believe in him, and i think there must be some truth to that before the whole scandal broke, they seemed like this perfectly happy sort of political wonder duo. i think she wants him to be mayor because she believes in him. but i also think she wants him to be mayor because, you know, her family has a lot of work to
in wilmington. any way, o donnell today confirmed via twitter she was at least contemplating a 2014 matchup against u.s. senator chris koontz. there are many decisions to run in 2014. number one is my parents health. o donnell s potential run isn t exactly being greeted by enthusiasm by all republicans in delaware. according to the news journal, the house republican leader said, quote, she has contributed to the demise of the republican party. maybe republicans need to remember what kept them from gaining control of the senate in 2010. people like christine o donnell. any way, we ll be right back after this. but, dad, you ve got.

offers themselves for elected office or any public figure is can you do the job. but part of doing is job is what you say and what you do not say. can the public trust it? but ultimately, it will be up to the voters. it is not about gotcha. it s about who can do the job for the people that they re offering themselves for. we ll see. a forum is tonight. we ll see where it goes from here in new york and around the country. thanks for watching. i m al sharpton. hardball starts right now. weiner strikes again. let s play hardball. good evening. i m chris matthews down in washington. let me start tonight with the latest on the new york mayoral candidate anthony weiner. the latest is that there is a
we re joined by the woe washing post s autumn brewington. thank you for joining us again. the choreography of this thing, the brits do this so well. even the new kids. they do. every time you see will, you see diana. yes. and he looks so much like her, but this was, you know, he practiced putting that car seat in. he practiced is he could do if in front of the press. it s not a natural thing. no, my son has a kid now, my daughter-in-law has a young baby. very politically correct to use the car seat. no royal prerogatives there. no driving off just holding simon marks, thanks for joining us again. the whole thing about the way they do this in britain, is there a protocol person who says they ll go outside, stand in front of the crowd, we ll have the crowd waiting for you, wave to them naturally then drive off like after their wedding. they drove off in a car after that. well, i think, chris, there is a protocol, but frankly they re rewriting it. i mean, the real takeawa
