Alabama to decide. thank you both on this story that continues to develop. up ahead, does mike pence have a good three-point plan for russia? or does he have a lot of defense that s aren t adding up? and later, donald trump has made a massive effort to remake the bench. when you have a cold stuff happens. shut down cold symptoms fast with maximum strength
