to bring the issue back up again. i don t think so. i think the vice president was trying to what he meant to say. he meant to say bill: he felt compelled to have a little cleanup here. oh, yeah. i am not going to disagree with jose on this one. the fact that he was compelled to apologize showed that it was hurting him. he lost six points just in the last few weeks in this debate. he is on a downward slide. going down a little bit. the fact that he is going to suddenly regroup and become this discipline messenger or have this discipline message moving forward, that s not who he is or how he operates. it is going to add up over time, and it is really threatening his hold on this race. he hasn t controlled the narrative one day since he has come into the race. he continues to be led by the rest of the candidates about
there could be a much stronger, tighter discipline message about the threat of this and there could be more of a focus on it from the president himself. there s no doubt about that. what i m saying is underneath that, where things happen and operational activities occur, there are a wide range of efforts being done to ensure that we strengthen this. we understand the russians were engaged in this activity in the past election. we understand they have been doing this for a long time. so, that s why i say, you know, if you are going to say use a term like dereliction of duty, you better be able to apply it to a lack of focus on appropriate response and cyber warfare going back for years now in the u.s. you have ten seconds to respond, ambassador. well, i also said yesterday, president obama should have done more. what matters in our system is what the president does. what matters to putin is what the president does.
