turning around a city that was on the ropes and from a political perspective running campaigns and winning elections is the kind of experience we need to lead the dnc forward. on one hand, you ve got some parts of a biography that the democratic party in general would need. you come from a red state in indiana, you re a mayor, not sort of tied into the federal government. but, a lot of the democratic party coalition is on the coasts. a lot of the democratic party coalition i m not saying south bend is not diverse, you have a big university there, otherwise known as notre dame. i m sure there s some level of diversity, but not in the numbers that the democratic party is nationally. so are you you know, why you in this case? why is your biography better and why is your experience better than some of the other candidates? well, we re proud of being close to the university of notre dame, but you ought to know that our city didn t grow up around

there is a story about obama care in the south. potentially. they show anywhere from three to ten percentage points over his many ways. mark is from the wal-mart state. against the federal minimum wage increase, against marriage equality, in line with the values of the state. in terms of obamacare, it s a long time until november. i m not sure i how much obamacare will be an issue, as we see the republican party starting to back away from it. the question becomes if they back away whether democrats can be aggressive on that. that strikes me as something we saw. a lot of lines of attack by allison grimes tonight. ty didn t hear anything about obamacare or health care to say that is something she would be running on. you made a good point about things working out in the south. we have seen republicans hammer the issue over and over and over
