that is mitch mcconnell took when he held up the process for merrick garland. i believe in the golden rule. i think everyone should be calling mitch mcconnell and telling him to do unto others as he has done to himself and we need to make this decision after this election. we should expect he be consistent if he wanted the voters to weigh in on the supreme court, in 2016, he should allows the voters to weigh in on the court in 2018. i m joined by a member of the senate judiciary committee set to hold hearings on the new nominee. amy klobuchar of minnesota. you do understand, i understand this argument and obviously if there s a rank hypocrisy. mitch mcconnell and all those folks don t care at all about that. first of all, this is a historic moment like we ve ever seen. i know understand that. instead of just thinking about what they care about, i want to think about the american people first of all. you look at the decisions 5-4,
cycle, to alienate your base by trying to pass a trade deal that no one gets to see. the republicans want to see every line of every deal that the president is trying to negotiate with iran but those folks don t care if they see the trade bill that s going to give away our jobs. the hypocrisy is unbelievable. i think it s going to be bad. it s going to be hard on the base. this is a deal that shouldn t come up at all. we should use fast track to say we re not going to do that and let s see if we can get a trade bill that creates net job increases for american workers. ed i say this without fear of being wrong. since we started negotiating these bilateral, multi-lateral trade deals, we can t find a deal that s created jobs for american workers and in fact it s added to the income inequality that we re wrestling with every day. that is the theme of everybody s campaign for the democrats, no doubt.

three quite different elect rates, but their fates say a lot about the political moment. in virginia, the attorney general, ken cuccinelli, the pro transvaginal ultrasound tea party candidate, is limping his way towards an embarrassing defeat in a state that is reliably republican at the state house level, where the current governor, bob mcdonnell, won handily three years ago. in new york city, which hasn t elected a democrat in 20 years, republican candidate jim loada is about to get trounced most likely with loyalists referring to 1950 charges of communism against bill de blasio. and in new jersey, governor chris christie is a study in contrast, particularly compared to ken cuccinelli. christie appears to be waltzing into an easy re-election, having successfully mastered the atmospherics, if not the substance, of going after the tea party strain of his own party. here s christie s sermon to his own faithful yesterday. folks don t care if you agree with them on everything, because
