Se is sill ya, the Clinton Family out in force all weekend long. And theyre planning what they call a Victory Party tonight. Reporter they are. That shows a confidence heading into today. Hillary clinton packing in the crowds. Im telling you, i have never seen her on this campaign trail sounding more confident and more energized. Just last night, 2600 people packing into a High School Gym for her, a raucous crowd but her campaign is telling me privately, theyre approaching today with caution, this race that seemed to be hers for her lose. Bernie sanders overnight telling his crowds hes in it for the long haul. Bernie sanders wants to stay into this all of the way until the convention. All right, cecilia, thank you very much. Clinton, good enough to join us day. Thank you so much for doing this. Do you have the Victory Party all set for tonight . Race, robin. Wire. But we feel very good. We worked so hard. I had a great operation here. So many young people organizers who fanned out across the state. The thousands of volunteers, we past weekend. So, were very committed, very energized, very enthusiastic. It all depends on who shows up tonight. Who comes out to caucus in iowa. Im urging anyone who interested in caucusing for me, please be there tonight, 6 30. Ill be there in spirit. Because if you stand up for me, i will stand up for you during this campaign and into the white house. There are so many similarities between whats going on right now and eight years ago, you, again, are unexpected challenge that you are facing, what are the differences and similarities between what youre experiencing now and what happened eight years ago here in iowa . Well, i think that i have much Better Organization to be just really clear about it. I think that we built an Lessons Learned and we recruited some of the best people that you could find, anywhere in the country, working in democratic politics, i think im a better candidate. I think that, in addition to just knowing more about the caucus process and what we needed to do to build toward this night, my experience as secretary of state, really deepened and intensified my understanding about what the next president will have to face. So, all and all, i feel like its a different, energized effort that is really bringing in people from across the state and indeed across the country who knows whats at stake in this election, understand how really dramatic and drastic it would be if the republicans were to take back the white house, they would rip out the progress. We wouldnt be able get the economy going for everybody, get college, everything im talking about, which is really in response to the concerns and the worries that i hear from people as i crisscross this state. All 99 counties you have crisscrossed and we have seen you and your husband and we have seen your daughter as well. I havent gotten all 99. I dont want anybody to think my silence is affirmation, but i covered a lot of ground and i have met many thousands of people. And really have learned so much. Thats the best part of this. Its obviously exhausting, it takes a lot of concentration, but what keeps me going are the stories they tell me. Its something so intimidate, at least in my experience. I try to listen to people and hear whats on their minds. When people tell you about the open heart surgery their granddaughter had and they couldnt afford it without Affordable Health care. Drowning in student debt and needs a way out. It sticks with me. The months i spent here listening to iowans has really made a better candidate and i think it will make me a better president. Well speaking of listening to iowans, we have jon karl, hes out and about. Hes with voters. A third of voters here are undecided and lets hear what one voter has to ask you, jon. Reporter hello, robin. Hello, secretary clinton. Were with rob from denison. Youre undecided between Hillary Clinton and john kasich. What is your question. Good morning, secretary clinton. As a liberal republican seems to be a dying breed, are you going to work bipartisanly with a partisan congress. Thats a really good question. Get asked that a lot. I have a record of working with republicans, when im actually in a position to do so when, you know, theres a campaign its a little bit different. When i was first lady, i worked to achieve the Childrens Health insurance program, working across the aisle with both democrats and republicans. Even reformed our foster care and adoption system, teaming up with delay, a very partisan republican in the house. In the senate, i worked hard to get health care for the National Guard and reserves. I worked with senator Lindsey Graham in that case, i dont know if there was a single republican who didnt cosponsor one of the bills that i worked on. As secretary of state, i had similar efforts to reach Common Ground to prove successful. I know in a campaign the distinctions have to be drawn. Because we have to give voters a real sense of what each of us wants to do and to hold us accountable for the agenda we put forth. But im confident that im going to work really hard to find that Common Ground across the aisle together. Secretary clinton, thank you very much. We appreciate you joining us on this very busy and important day. Thank you. Thanks so much. Great to talk to you. You as always. Hillary clinton on top of the democrats right now. Donald trump on top for the republicans. He joins us now by phone. Good morning, mr. Trump. Good to have you again with us this morning. You know, you have never actually faced voters before, are you nervous . Well, you have to be a little bit nervous. You know i like to win. I want to win for the country. Not for myself. This is actually my first election night. Ive gone through many election nights but always for someone else, george. This is a little bit different for me. Im sure it is. What worries you most . Well, i just hope everybody is going to be able to get out and vote. It looks like were going to skirting the weather the weather will be okay. Everything is over. We just made it. That was a biggie. I hope everybody gets out and votes. We have had the biggest crowds of anybody, including sanders whos second. I will say that. We have the most enthusiasm. Theyre like love fests. I believe theyre going to go out and vote. The theme is, make America Great again. This is the chance. Im selffunding my campaign. Im the only one doing that, george. Im putting up my money. Nobody else is doing that. I think thats a big difference. Lot of people like that. But theres great enthusiasm in those rooms and all over the state and all over every state. You know, when you look at New Hampshire, you saw the polls where theres i guess a 25point lead. In iowa, i think were going to to find out soon. Your staying power has surprised so many people so far, i was wondering what your response is to Chris Christie and he said donald will take himself down over time. I think we might have lost mr. Trump. Yes, i have you. Did you get that . I hear your fine. What is your response to Chris Christie who said youre going to take yourself down over time. Well, people said i wasnt going to run. Then, they said, if i ran, he would have fun and leave. Now im in first place. Chris took his down with the bridge. New jersey is the 50th worse state. Meaning its the last. He shouldnt be talking like that. Im surprised he would talk like that. Because i know him. Until this all happened. No, i think its been just the opposite. I would be very surprised. Hes got enough problems and hes doing very poorly in the polls. Im surprised that he would have said that. My life has been a life of success, its been a life of winning, its been a life of making great deals. Its been a life i have achieved tremendous success in so many different ways. For somebody to say that, obviously, isnt doing really well right now is pretty unusual, i think. For the first time tonight. Well be talking to your sons in the next halfhour. Thank you for joining us this morning. Well. Thank you very much. Donna brazile. And matthew dowd and when we see whats going on here, its like an electrictype atmosphere. And its something that we havent witnessed in quite some time such uncertainty. The campaigns. Theyre friends and family. Donald trump talked about it. The voters are now in charge as of today. And it brings tremendous anxiety because everything you thought was going to happen may not happen. Well look at tonight i think and were going to be surprised in the course of this. Theres an expectation there could be some big political earthquake depending on what happens on the republican or the democratic side. Right now the voters have taken control. Donna, what youre seeing on both sides, donald trump on the republican side. Bernie sanders on the democratic side. Just harnessing this outsider power up against the organizations of Hillary Clinton and ted cruz. The big challenge tonight, george is to take all of that passion and enthusiasm that you saw on the campaign trail and translate it into votes. The good thing about the hawkeye state, voters can turn up tonight and register to vote. This is a sameday registration. To the race and it may be an advantage to mr. Trump and mr. Sanders. Lets go to rob for the weather. Hey, george, were watching this massive storm traverse its way across the country. It will impact iowa but not until midnight tonight.
