therefore, if he gets into a campaign as an agent of the unions to push hillary clinton farther to the left. but if you stop and think about it, as you heard in your segment, this will be the third time for biden. he s gaffe prone. let s be straight about it. and he doesn t have the money or the structure that hillary has in place. this isn t a winning position if you re thinking about biden actually winning. this is national, not the state polls, but it shows hillary clinton with a pretty sizeable lead over bernie sanders. vice president biden obviously not in yet, but they re at 18.7%. meantime, jim webb, we re hearing, is going to have a news conference tomorrow in which he may consider running independent as not a democrat but as an independent. charles? i think juan has stumbled on the truth. staggered into the truth here. i think he announces exactly
and north carolina. and remember lake who is a democratic pollster told democrats not to run on this recently. so i think people who are being honest about this know that this isn t a winning issue for democrats. which is being dishonest because everyone said the opposite. the white house is continuing to say the law is good for people and they are saying the six million people but we don t have a definition of what enrolled is. whether the law is good for people is a separate issue. back on this tomorrow. don t disappoint. see you later listen to this, tens of thousands of illegal immigrants were busted last year, many with criminal records, but it turns out the numbers are coming out, let many of them go. why? we will talk about that.
i don t care. i am interested in, as you point out, the discourse turns into policy that is meaningful. right. these are the sorts of messages that have alienated women voters over and over again for the republican party, and it s sort of shocking to see the same comments, the same dialogue happening. so he says it s not about contraception. it s obviously about contraception and what we know is that the majority of men and women support contraception mandate. this isn t a winning issue with women voters, especially. and it s shocking that that s sort of they keep going back to it. you know, i think we saw it in virginia, if that s a canary in any coal mine, the message isn t going to resonate for republican candidates. so women voters aren t looking to sort of be told they re being manipulated, and that s what came across in his comments. it does seem like slut-shaming, all people who use birth control, is a bad policy, right? and, you know, if you kind of shifted the end of his
don t you think it s in defense of herself, though? obviously, she s been able to do both. she s been a mother and obviously an extremely accomplished political figure now for many decades. and i think she is in many ways saying i did it 37 some people might push back and say but you had all the trappings, all the privileges to make it possible. she did it at immense sacrifice and cost to herself, as all women do, no matter what choice they make. quite frankly, either choice has tremendous sacrifice. and the issue is living with that sacrifice. she may have done it at the highest level, jim, but she also took more hell than any woman could imagine. and i still she s someone who can talk on this with credibility. i still don t know how they had a daughter who is as accomplished and from what everybody tells me, that s as accomplished and balanced and grounded as is chelsea. she was a great mother. she was a great mother. but through just the most extraordinary circumstan
and not to go back to polling, if you poll the average american, he came out the winner on benghazi. that s the kind of sad part. and romney dropped the issue the next day which i think is testament to exactly that fact, that this isn t a winning issue. i still, mika, can t figure out why mitt romney handled that question as badly as he did. you know, charles krauthammer is asking the same thing. laura ingram. a lot of conservatives saying how exactly did mitt romney screw up the benghazi question? because clearly, joe, he didn t know that the president had used the words act of terror. you would have thought, though, in preparation that that would have come up. i mean, he clearly thought that the first time the president said act of terror he was waiting. it wasn t that he didn t know, that was a piece of information he thought he had under a football tucked in and he couldn t wait. by the way, i think most of us would have the same impression because for five
