and hillary clinton versus elizabeth warren. let's play "hardball." ♪ ♪ >>> good evening, i'm chris matthews in washington. p.t. barnum, the guy who created the greatest show on earth, knew how to fill the tent. if you want a crowd, start a fight. he put his money where his mouth was. he had his men start brawling on street corners, when the crowd gathered, they'd hand out flyers that the circus was coming to town. meet chris christie, who knows how to start a fight, telling the president he doesn't know how to conduct his business. itching to get into the center ripping, he's declared war on president obama. and the white house's don't panic approach to the handling the ebola crisis. the president meanwhile is taking his deliberate approach of logic, listening to the experts and all the doctors at the cdc and nih. christie is selling something different. he wants to put up a wall around west africa, and after two cases of ebola transmitted in the u.s., he wants to quarantine every single health worker coming back from there

but hillary clinton with bruce braley has a lot more work to do. she is obviously a very big draw, someone who democrats are excited to see but bruce braley has run not the strongest campaign. he has a lot of work to do. that's why he needs these big name surrogates coming out to help him. >> this and they're develop showing up. i wanted to ask you if you think either or each of them has a separate message they have to drive home once they do hit the ground. >> well, they have a fumo ti-- w motives here. republicans are trying to hit democrats on issues like jobs and the economy, foreign affairs, obviously the spread of isis is a major issue. democrats like hillary clinton will have to get out there and talk about issues like medicare, social security, minimum wage. these are going to be the big issues for democrats going into the midterm elections. when you look at the surrogates they have their own personal motives. they're trying to position themselves potentially to run for president in 2016. >> you think this is a litmus test for them? >> abso

why isn't there a thought of elizabeth warren and hillary clinton together. you see elizabeth warren with a candidate, hillary clinton with the candidate, why not? >> i'm not in the business of making ads for politics. i don't know much about their personal issues. i'm not thinking they have warm and fuzzy feelings for one another. i think there's enthusiasm for elizabeth warren if she ran she'd be welcome for people who are in the in the hillary camp. perhaps you can get the photo opp with them. >> hillary clinton is on the trail not having photo opps with elizabeth warren she is testing the economic message, listen to her talking about how her husband's economic record, her support while she was in the senate for raising the minimum wage, she says government does have a role in boosting your paycheck. >> my husband gave working families a raise in the 1990s. i voted to raise the minimum wage and guess what? millions of jobs were created. don't let anybody tell you that you know, it's corporations and businesses that create jobs. >> a little reminiscent ther

hillary clinton has chosen much more carefully. she's clearly made the calculation, win or lose there is some benefit for her here in kentucky. >> now that we've been thinking about it, with allison grimes not saying either way whether she voted for obama but making it clear she voted for hillary clinton. that's an interesting thing, only voting for them if you like them. >> i think she's taken a the love heat. i think that helps explain why the democratic senatorial campaign went down, to have it come out, hey, i was willing to vote for hillary clinton but nanld standing on principle, it is hard to say that but i'll violate my principle in an interview that hasn't aired yet. thanks for joining us. we'll come back and listen to hillary clinton when she takes stage. roundtable is coming up. that tackles our big story. how do we really fight and keep ebola from our shores after a second health care worker was diagnosed in the country. this is the news breaking. it is growing as a threat. >>> welcome back. time for the roundtable. pre

we saw hillary clinton in a race most democrats think is slipping away. the allison grimes campaign insist they can beat mitch mcconnell in kentucky. they're hoping this from hillary clinton can help. >> it's unbelievable that in this day and time someone would be telling the women of kentucky they don't deserve equal pay for equal work? if there is only one reason that will motivate you to go vote in 20 days, put that at the top of the list. >> look, i think in all of these races, the one factor we have left out, 2008 and 2012 were presidential years. it was different in terms top of the ticket. number one. number two, campaign quality matters. allison grimes has been hit repeatedly as the perception that she's too robotic. the fact that the dscc pulled out of ads there. >> good timing. >> the day befoi think it's a t challenge. i think where you're seeing hillary clinton go in large measure is about where they think they can be of help. in some cases it is about solidarity with women candidates. you're going to see her doing that a lot regardless of whe

hillary clinton may run for president, it's likely that she will run for president. and when the secretary of defense says he informed the president in the white house and the state department that the talking points they were going to deliver were different from what they were actually delivering or different from what he discovered, when they go ahead and deliver them anyway, when hillary clinton's delivered those and says at this point, what difference does it make, it didn't make a difference at that point, but it will make a difference when she runs for president in 2016. she delivered talking points that hear secretary of defense and others felt were inaccurate. >> well, you know, i'm not going to be able to comment very helpfully on that, because i just wasn't there. and as everything i've seen on this and read about it for two years now is that the events happened very quickly. there was a lot of give and take inside the executive branch. there are different interpretations of what happened. now. there were different interpretations then. and this has gotten
