but the holiday spirit is not ending the stalemate in washington over impeachment. senate minority leader chuck schumer is demanding documents and witnesses that he says are necessary to carry out a fair trial, while majority leader mitch mcconnell says they re at an impasse until nancy pelosi sends impeachment articles to the senate. meanwhile, the top lawyer in the house is raising the prospect of impeaching president trump again if new evidence emerges. then there are the ramblings of mr. trump s personal attorney rudy giuliani, unloeldiading in new interview after his recent trip to ukraine. giuliani claims without any proof, former ambassador of ukraine was controlled by george soros. giuliani says he s more of a jew than soros who is a holocaust survivor. lets discuss now with cnn political commentator joe lockhart, cnn senior global
whether they break out pete buttigieg, whether they break out amy klobuchar or elizabeth warren, and that platform of iowa is very significant going into new hampshire, south carolina, nevada, because as we know joe biden has a stronghold in south carolina and in nevada. bernie sanders is strong in new hampshire. so you know, it really requires victory in iowa for one of these other candidates to be successful going forward in the next few states. but you re saying if biden doesn t win iowa he can still recover? no question. but i think that s less the case for pete buttigieg and amy and for warren. the polls are no help because when you look at the most recent polls in iowa, and grant it these are from a month ago. let s start with the cnn one. in this cnn one from november
8th through 13th butte judge ig pretty far out then warren at 16, then biden at 15, then sanders at 15, a three-way tie for second. klobuchar is half of that at 6. then a poll done at virtually the same time, this cbs poll had different results. i ll try to pull those up for you any second. that s where sanders is well, basically it s a two-way tie between sanders and biden. quite different than the cnn poll, then buttigieg, which is basically tied as well, then warren, then klobuchar. it s just well, it s just impossible to tell what s going to happen. as we heard from that piece that preceded you guys, even iowans are still deciding. obviously they don t know what they re going to do. yeah, i mean, my political analysis this morning is like i don t know what s going to happen. we shall see. i remind people often, though, i mean, our colleague rick s santorum won the iowa caucus.
