Lived with decades of people attributing poll testing to hillary. i ve got to say working on health care for all in 1994 certainly wasn t poll tested. she s been attacked by the right for a variety of positions she s taken. that s not poll tested. bill clinton passed nafta. if she runs for president, i hope all commentators will judge her on what she s putting forward. i worked for her for a decade. in the 2007-2008 campaign her economic program was focused on inequality before inequality was vogue. she talked about ceo pay in her campaign, talked about how ceo pay was running away from worker pay. she actually proposed regulating derivatives in the fall of 2007 before anyone was talking about these issues, so i actually hope people will judge her on the policies she s put forward and ....
Said the president did what was right, not what was expedient as we read this book who was by all accounts one of the real bipartisan heroes of public service. it is not like most americans have a great passion for what we are or were doing in afghanistan. the question is, did he do what s right for national security in bob gates opinion or the american people s opinion or in his own opinion, president obama s opinion? is president obama leading in afghanistan by conviction or poll testing? what is deriving his decisions? did he feel like he had to push for the surge in afghanistan or did he really, really believe, like bob gates, that that was the appropriate course of action for national security. we have to move on and talk about chris christie. headlining, kristy or snooki, worse for new jersey? it seemed like just yesterday, chris christie was maligning the jersey shore. listen. ....
The president responded to what was the flashies exert double down, poll testing of biden hillary swap, here is that sound bite. did you really not know the campaign was researching the idea of swapping hillary clinton for joe biden. chuck, again, the problem we have and this goes back to the earlier question you asked. i m in charge of 2 million people in the federal government. that was true, by the way, even when i was running for president. so people do all kinds of stuff. some of it they clear with me. sometimes they are trying to figure things out, particularly on the political side. i m not somebody that delves into polling and all that data. here is the one thing i would say for certain, if they would ask me i would say there s no way i m not running again with joe biden. ....
Everything has to be right for him. his food has to be right. has he to work out, get to sleep more, have his friends around him. everything about his state of mind matters. she recognized the stakes in the second debate were sky high. one of the nuggets, as you both know, have gotten a ton of tank is this idea president s advisers daily were poll testing considering replacing biden with clinton. over the past couple of days, some of the people involved david axelrod, jay carney suggested that was never a consideration. was this a big deal or not a big deal? a big deal in the following sense. have you a presidency at the low point, after the last round of budget negotiations in 2011. the president s poll numbers are down. he s seen as weak. bill dal y, white house chief of staff at the time, look, we have to consider, as he said the other day, we have to consider every option. one thing to look at, do the due diligence, lets test it, lets ....
Each of the potential short list people had their own vetting team so that there was no taint going from one to the other. and i think in the end, my sense was that of course ryan ended up getting picked but rob portman senator from ohio was the runner-up. very fast today i talked to the chris christie folks about this issue, instead of responding they actually arranged beth myers herself to e-mail me and use that as their response. which to me speaks to the establishment wing of that party s respect, perhaps fear of chris christie that they could get beth myers to stand up for chris christie to do that. i want to bring in candy crowley, does it surprise you that they would poll test, focus group hillary clinton as potential v.p. over biden? reporter: no. the way focus groups and poll testing goes, it s everything. ....
