My interactions with Mitch Mcconnell, hes always been very straightforward with me. To his credit hes never made a promise that he couldnt deliver. The relationship i have with the president has always been cordial. Theres no, not a personality problem here or anything like that. I think my attitude about all this at this point is trust, trust but verify. Good morning. It is thursday november 6th. Welcome to morning joe. With us on set, former Communications Director for president george w. Bush and cohost of the view, nicole wallace. And in washington, sam stein. And White House Correspondent for the wall street journal carol leigh. Im looking at these headlines, after shocks of tuesday. You got the boston globe, a republican governor in boston. Again.

Average age of the people that won going to senate, 16 years y
Im happy the nurse from maine is not ill. Glad she doesnt have ebola. I hope it doesnt develop in the next period until the 21 day period is over. Im glad she can be comfortable and back in her home now where she wants to be. I think upon reflection she will understand that my job is to protect the health and safety of the people of new jersey and the reason and thats only reason in made the decisions i did and i wouldnt make the decision differently if i had to do it again today. Good morning its tuesday, october 28th. Live look at times square. Oh, my goodness, its a cumbersome tuesday morning. We barely made it. Literally is harder to jump a fence to get to the east room of the white house than here. Whoever runs this building. Bill told me yesterday that i was a little too harsh off the top by talking about dumb liberals and, you know i didnt like it. Designee said youre insulting
your audience. Because dumb liberals dont watch this show. You have to be smart to watch this show bec
L. A. Today, taking his midterm message on the economy to millennials. Hell also make remarks and answer questions at a dnc event coming up this evening. And the illinois man accused of trying to travel travel over join isis has a detention hearing in federal court today. Police say he wrote a letter to his parents about going to the, quote, blessed land of syria but they say he didnt make it past chicago. All right. Thats going to do it for way too early. Morning joe starts right now. This is the First Military intervention in that years without a code name. Now, might be because our chin stroker in chief wants to avoid an embarrassing acronym here like past rejected code names operation afghan free dam which spelled oaf by accident or Operation Iraqi liberation which spelled o. I. L. , but so far the
only actual name military planners have suggested to the pentagon was Operation Inherent resolve, which was rejected because as one Military Officer put it, it was just kind of blah. I a
Announced it would immediately deploy a team of specialists when a hospital confirmed an ebola case. The change comes amid criticism over how when the hospital confirmed the case. The situation how it is handled the situation in dallas. I got it. I wish we are had put a team like this on the ground the day the patient, the first patient was diagnosed. That might have prevented this infection. But we will do that from today onward with any case anywhere in the u. S. Meanwhile, nina pham is listed in Good Condition a. Union on behalf of several nurses is criticizing the facility after the virus was spread there. National nurses united claims there was no system if place to treat ebola patients and nurses did not have protective gear.

Meanwhile, there is a grim warning from the World Health Organization which says there could be 10,000 new cases of ebola per week. Within two months,
We do have an obligation to work on issues where we can agree him i think we have a duty to do that. Just because we have a two of party system doesnt mean we have to be in perpetual conflict. I think ive shown that to be true at critical times in the past. I hope the president gives me a chance to show it again. That is the Senate Majority leader of the United States senate Mitch Mcconnell, whose
Republican Party has swept control of the party. They did it in battleground states thought to be tighter than they actually were. So far the gop gained seven seats. It wasnt even close in kentucky where Mitch Mcconnell beat his opponent allison lundgrengrimes. In iowa, joni ernst beat congressman bruce braley. Another big win was in North Carolina, thom tillis unseated kay hagan. In arkansas, not close, tom cotton, blasted mark prior. Democrat mark udall has fallen to congressman cory gardner in colorado. The stunner of the night was georgia. Which was expected by most to go to a january run
