as goldie has been discussing for us right now. i mean, she s still got her memory, for instance. as opposed to me. yeah. the bigger point i think, and i don t disagree with goldie, but the bigger point i think for the republican party is they ve got to stop doing this, got to stop saying this person is bad because of this, this person is bad because of that. what the republican party has not been able to do successfully over the last they have mid term elections and they will this time again. at the national level they have not been able to come up with a positive message that says take a look at us because these are the things that we want to do for you and your family as we move forward. and i think they ve got to get off this they truly are the party of no. msnbc contributor, goldie tailor. always a pleasure. the affable and memorable strategist rich gaelin. boston is beefing up security for the 4th of july. more than half a million people
point. in washington we know these people. we know senators. we know cabinet secretaries, we know former cabinet. so they re always at the top of the list this far out because the washington press core knows them, they go to receptions with them, they go to correspondent centers. there are a ton of governors on both sides of the aisle that i think are peering over the transom to wait for their chance to see if they can be the one that gets into this thing. i suspect both sides will have a group of governors jump in and have a spirited primary. you know, goldie, to you on this one. it looks like the gop has a new strategy waiting in the wings. the new york magazine puts it this way, i ll read it to you, quote, the republican party, which has not been popular with the kids of late, has a not so innovative strategy for taking the youth vote from hillary clinton if and when she decides to run for president in 2016. remind the public that she is an older woman. will that work? this ageist
what s your thought of this latest round of discussion around hillary clinton? i agree with everything goldie said. you know, back in 2007 when everybody was saying, well, mrs. clinton gets into this then it s over, and what happened is we went into iowa and hillary clinton and oh, gosh, what s his name? the guy that had the baby. i can t remember his name. had the the senator from north carolina split their votes about 30% each. are you talking about john edwards? yeah, john edwards. i m sorry, i had a brain freeze. it s july 4th. it s okay, rich. around the barbecue. thinking about the barbecue. come on back. be with me. be with us. be with goldie. i m with ya. i m on target here. they split about 30% of the vote, mrs. clinton and john edwards. barack obama only won iowa with about 38% of the vote. if either one of those two had jumped ahead we would have had a completely different eight years. to goldie s point, you can t tell this far out. but it s fun to talk abo
democrat. new polls and a new tactic by the gop are all fueling new speculation about a possible 2016 presidential run by hillary clinton. house minority leader nancy pelosi adding fuel to the fire on meet the press when she expanded on comments that the democratic party is now coalescing behind clinton. then came a slew of articles. why democrats are sold on hillary clinton in 2016. there s also this on the daily beast. a lifetime of experience may hinder hillary clinton in 2016. joining me now msnbc contributor goldie taylor and rich gaylin publisher of mullins.com. let s start with you, goldie. is she unstoppable?
no. she wasn t unstoppable last time or the time before that. the issue is democrats have a problem with coronations. primary elections are just that, when people go to the ballot box and choose the person of their choice. hillary clinton is a strong candidate. she has a lifetime of experience. she is likely the most vetted candidate that will ever enter a presidential race. i have great respect for her and her lifetime of work, but she s going to have to, if she chooses, get into this race and run a vigorous campaign just as if she had never run before. i think, you know, name i.d. and some of these other things will certainly be on her side and shoel certainly have the wind at her back, but i don t discount joe biden and many of the other strong democrats. by the way, no one really knew who barack obama was this time when we had the first election when he came to office in 2008 so we may not even know, may not even know who the nominee is today. goldie s got the recent political
