[applause] no one thought it. no one thought it. they were all focused on the two men in the race and no one thought it. kathy barnett is at a breakfast this morning and operating on a shoe-string budget. the celebrity mehmet oz held a rally and said this about barnett. we know little about her pass, they cannot win in november. every time kathy tries to answer a question leads to more questions which is why she s not answering more questions. and this is the financial treasure official, mccormick says there s no room on onto job training. any of these into this role on day one, i know what to do,
