welcome back to hardball. our next award goes to flip-flop of 2020. a testament to the ongoing, will they or won t they of the democratic nomination of the fight for 2020. our first contender texas congressman beto o rourke who definitively said he was not running for president before the midterms started. a i will not be a candidate for president in 2020. i made a decision not to rule anything out. that was fast. next is new york senator kiersten gillibrand who said she d finish a six-year term in the senate. let s watch. can you tell new yorkers who plan to vote for you on november 6 that you will, if reelected, serve out your six-year senate term? i will. midterms are over. what are you concentrating on now?
