dave: what will the dnc invest in over the next month? will the dnc invest in any legal challenges in florida and georgia? you kind of hinted at it. tom: we have boots on the ground in georgia right now. our southern regional director has worked before with stacey abrams and is close with stacy. stacy called me personally a few months ago and said, can jonay come down full-time? we said absolutely. when i was in georgia last weekend, i was with jonay for a period of time. we have folks who are down there. we will continue to be in contact. every vote needs to be counted in georgia. the weekend before that, two weeks ago i was in mississippi. we had boots on the ground there. we will continue to do that because not only do we have an election for senate in less than three weeks, the monday after thanksgiving or tuesday after thanksgiving, something like that, but we have elections next year. we have invested, and our investment was months ago, in building the infrastructure in mississippi,not only to help mike espe but help jim hood up and

i am wondering what the dnc is doing in terms of ballot chasing? tom: one of the emails they came across my desk because i was asking this question -- we have folks on our protection team right now doing ballot chasing of provisional ballots. the problem is they claim there are 22,000 or 25,000 provisional ballots. i don't believe them. i think there are more. the problem is the fox is guarding the henhouse. i have no faith in anything the person who wants to be governor but is overseeing the integrity of the election says. there is an old andy griffith episode where a guy walks in. i want to speak to the police officer. the guy puts on his police hat on. i want to talk to the judge. he opens the jordan puts on his judge hat. that is what we have people on the voter protection team. whatever help anyone needs in florida and georgia, we are going to continue everything we need to do. voter suppression is a permanent staple in their playbook. that is a lesson we have to learn. it takes a different form in different places. shelby county, tennessee, i

so five days later when the dnc hack became public. that this was a dnc hoax they are making it up because they have such a lousy candidate see you can argue the three people in the entire known universe that they were up to something as paul manafort trump junior and kirchner and maybe even donald trump and this pattern continues with a 22000 dnc e-mail that were released by wikileaks. and then they tried to intervene in the election donald trump junior and paul manafort go on in response to say clinton people are making it up out dare they bring the campaignup into the gutter to accuse them of interference and paul manafort goes on to say he has no connection at all. you don't pay that money to the russian oligarch and then thisis continues then donald trump says if you are listening those clinton ree-mails whatever you can do. so look at this from the kremlin perspective. that what might've been happening inside the kremlin. are we being too reckless. and the trump campaign is on your side. and then you have the trump campaign to sa

iran for dnc -- i ran for dnc chair and said to rebuild trust we will set out a primary today calendar far in advance of who we know who will be in the race. our job is to make sure everybody gets a fair shake. the process is fair. fair in fact and fair in perception. before the end of the year we will outline what the primary debate calendar is, the number of the dates we think will take place. when they will start. expectation that we will have multiple candidates , some initial guidance on how we will manage that potential contingency. we have not made any final decisions yet. before christmas -- : what is your ballpark idea for how many debates there should be? tom: we are still debating. we are debating how many states will have debates. certainly more than the last cycle is what we think. the goal is to make sure people can kick the tires on the candidates and make sure the candidates can have a fair shake and a fair opportunity to make their case to the american people. if we have a dozen candidates for president, 11 of those 12 have to make it to the mountaintop. i want to make

the fact that the dnc was hacked and then eventually we saw that information, we knew the dnc was hacked because of their own disclosures ahead of that information becoming public in july of 2016. what we did not know, what nobody knew, was that john podesta was hacked at that point. maybe u.s. intelligence, maybe u.s. government knew at that time, but publicly none of us knew that, chris. so for them to all of a sudden just come out and say, well, podesta is going to be the guy in the barrel to say he's the next one that's going to be next, who would have thought john podesta was going to be the next person that was going to come up? another thing i want to point out, they were talking a lot in these e-mails. you talked about one on screen. i can they talk about how bad it's going to be for the foundation. some people are trying to say clearly they didn't know it was podesta because they're talking about the foundation. not so fast. going back and looking at those e-mails from john podesta, he was the chairman of the clinton foundation at that point. and his e-mails go back to 2008. i r

dnc. these are pretty coveted seats. virginia has five elected representatives to the democratic national committee. these are infamous superdelegate positions. when i decided to run for the position in 2016, most of my very early supporters came from my friends, millennials, progressives. i didn't really have the -- the strongest supporters came from that community as opposed to my own community. it's difficult. when folks put themselves out there, people from our community, when we step up to run for office, it's not easy. it really isn't. when we are talking about running for office during this administration, administration that again on a day to day basis is demonizing our community, is attacking us. you know, folks like everybody in this room that is working on issues that were trying to fight for our communities, trying to defend our rights and liberties and individuals running for our community are the best people that will be able to fight for us. who else will be better to repres

you were chair of the dnc. do you think knowing what we know, he should hold the position he holds now. >> i know as you say the dfl investigated, couldn't find anything. if i were chair of the dnc, you would have a thorough investigation to find out. and if there was any credibility to the claims, of course, you would ask that person to leave. there is zero tolerance. >> are you saying there's no credibility to the claims? >> i haven't personally looked at it. the dfl has looked at it, but it needs to be looked at. we'rane zero tolerance society, as we should be. no means no. that's the message that has come out. we have to look at everybody involved in the situations and see what there is. he's running. he's on the ballot, and the voters of minnesota tonight will make the decision whether he'll be the attorney general. and then the dnc, of course, will have to do what they have to do. >> nancy pelosi's leadership in question, really win or lose. if the dems lose, yowlver calls, but there are democrats running

is because nobody was asks about it until 2016 when it was reported that the russians had hacked the dnc servers and so the point that he started to talk about it, he did not have a development there, but he does convenient conveniently omit, and a talking about the closest ties to russia were this palm beach mansion that he sold, and he conveniently omits that from early 2017 until june 2016, where he was in talks with this trump tower deal, and by the way, we were told that the only reason that trump tower deal in moscow ended up fall iing throu and michael cohen pulled out there at the end was because of all of the news about the russian hacking of the dnc and otherwise, they could have potentially carried through and had this business dealing going through, but they realized the political repercussions would have been so bad after this dnc hack by the russians became public. >> and it was the public story of the dnc hack by the russians that it was that day that the deal ended. it is a clear fact that it was going on. >> yes, that is the moment that it fell apart, and listening to tr

the next day on june 15th, the first hacked materials from the dnc were released by a russian entity called guccifer 2.0 and wikileaks then began releasing the dnc's e-mails the next month in jewuly of 2016. congressman, this is so intertwined and i keep thinking if he lied about his business dealings being nonexistent, why would anybody believe when he'd say he had nothing to do with collaborating with the russians? >> i don't think we can believe what the president says about his relationship with russia or whether he conspired with russia or not because you're right, he started, chris, by saying i have no business with russia, i haven't talked to any russians, and now we have all these evidence of collusion of meetings of trying to get information about hillary clinton, now further reporting that basically a bribe may have been offered to vladimir putin to allow the trump tower moscow project to go forward. and that's very important because what's important there is that it may show a method of doing business that then opens up other questions about how he was doing business in ot

dnc chair tom perez is with kevin cirilli. kevin: thank you. chairman perez, thank you for being here. have plantaying they closings what you make of this? tom: this is irresponsible. i can't help but note the fact that they got $157 million tax cut from the reckless tax bill of last year that president trump said was going to be a boon for workers. it has not been a boon for workers. workers have been taking it on the short end once again. before the 2016 election, this president promised in michigan that you will not see one plant closing if i'm elected president. i promise. that is what he said. we have the carrier plant, and missouri, the harley plant, we have the chevy plant. again, we need to put workers first. not the tax cuts of four large corporations. front let's pull up the pages. they are calling it a new black monday in the states because of these closures and you also have of course what is going on with regards to the g.m. that forecasted this back in january. you said -- you linked it to the tax proposal. how are democrats polic

. >> the three of us are still on the rules committee of the dnc. we still care about the rules. reverend jackson said you got to know the rules in order to know how to break the rules, so they got to come past as to change rules. we don't win every fight, but we are at the table when they are talking about equal representation and diversity and how the delegates are selected, so they know it's the three of us and there's more of us. we are a firewall. >> we will look at you. arizona said they could not find native americans. i said go back. californians said we cannot find lesbians. i said really? go back. and by the way the fact that we call ourselves the colored girls means everybody in the rainbow. we have sat and represented and we never never will labor. >> on that note timing i feel like leah is talking about honing our strength and being for that community you are making choices that will affect or impact our community. the obligation to our community in these roles in particular is heightened, is it not connect yes. >> does that ever feel burdensome? [laughter] >> i thin

watch dnc spokesman jim acosta from earlier this month it's called the president for daring to suggest that migrants from the imaginary caravan, should it actually exist, might try to help the u.s. border. >> your campaign had an ad showing migrants climbing over walls. >> they weren't actors. it was true. do you think they were actors? they didn't come from hollywood. >> tucker: they're not going to be doing that, says democratic flach jim acosta. turns out that's precisely what they're going to be doing and just did over the weekend. american authorities had to shut down the border crossing in california right next to san diego after about a thousand people try to rush the crossingn watch. [inaudible] >> tucker: so that's what the dnc channels told us were never going to happen and course it did happen. it was bad.an mexican riot police and u.s. border agents both came under attack from the mob, which threw rocks at them. with no meaningful wall along, the borders they used tear gas to disperse the crowd.o there is fairly recent precedent for doing that. in 2013 a group of about 100

remember, former interim dnc chair donna brazile admitting this on my radio show -- remember, she has actually used the word "rig" that she backed off in this interview but she admitted she used it. >> i said in my book and exchange for bailing out the party -- which was broke, the clinton campaign would get control over certain decisions and aspects that made it difficult, if not impossible, for me to do my job. it was unethical, but it was not rigged. and i stand by that. >> you said you use the word rig. >> of course. i promised bernie that i would go department by department and do a forensic test to find out what happened. >> sean: she used the word "rigged" herself and she tells the story how bernie was robbed by the dnc machine that clinton was controlling, the cancer, as she called it. hangs up the phone after having tells bernie sanders the truth, said she cried out of anger over this. we have one system for this, and elections for democrats but like we have one system for justice for the clintons. and another one for anyone who opposes them. this is not equal justice under t

what happened with the servers at the dnc. that's a good question to ask, i don't have any problem with that. >> why? we all know the answer. >> what do you mean? what was on the servers. do you know what was on the servers, chris? >> i'll tell you what wasn't on the server. they heard the third party -- >> how do you know? >> the third party reckoning of what was on the server and what malwear might be there was all surveyed by the fbi. you know it's common protocol about they ask for a review, if those guys want to do an internal review or there's a third party, they accept them all the time, and you know it. >> it seemed like the dnc was worried about something. that's all i know. >> sounds like speculation to me, tuxedo boy. let me ask you this. when it comes to the dnc, that ez a distraction from this. the president going after mueller, a distraction. i don't know why people let him mistake the record about mueller. put there by president bush, served for president obama for four years, trump said today eight years, i don

[applause] and out of that committee process a few months ago the dnc voted i can tell you the struggle was to end the ability of superdelegates as you know, they are often elected officials or senators or congresspeopl congresspeople, governors, campn contributors with the elite of the democratic party as a result of this decision a few months ago those were the delegates will not have a vote on the first ballot at the next dnc convention. [cheers and applause] and that is significant because you don't want any candidate to start off with 20 percent of the vote needed everybody assuming the campaign is already over. so i consider that to be a significant step forward to democratize the democratic party. but clearly a lot more has to be done and that speaks to the whole election system and the whole electoral system in america to date. right now in new york state where most of the younger people for example, do not consider themselves democrats or republicans but nonpartisan or independent but new york state makes it impossible for you to vote in the primary unless you change your voter

friendly towards russia, and by that time, wikileaks had begun putting out hacked material from the dnc, and paul manafort was getting publicly pressed on what i mentioned, his ties to russia. >> are there any ties between mr. trump, you, or your campaign, and putin and his regime? >> no, there are not. it's absurd. there's no basis to it. >> to be clear, mr. trump has no financial relationships with any russian oligarchs? >> that's what he said. that's what i said. that's obviously what our position is. >> that may be what manafort's lies look like a little bit. that was july. and then i want to show you something that we dug up today. a truly epic tv moment on the same day manafort went on "meet the press" along with, on that day, julian assange. >> joining me this morning are the two top strategists from both campaigns. also, hack attack and the russian connection. i talk to wikileaks founder julian assange. >> looks a little different now. on that same show, both manafort and assange talked all about the russian hacks. >> does it not also matter if a foreign government wants to take

you don't know who broke into dnc. >> ah, yes, the 400-pound hacker. we know now, we have a good indication then it was russia. and long after the intelligence community had so publicly concluded it was russia, of course, the president kept denying it, kept throwing ink in the water, even siding with vladimir putin, standing shoulder to-shoulder at the helsinki summit. >> was there any contact in any way between trump or his associates and the kremlin or cutouts they had? >> i -- i joined this campaign in the summer, and i can tell you that all the contact by the trump campaign and associates was with the american people. of course not. why would there be any contacts between the campaign? >> why would there be any contacts with anyone but the american people? but there was contact with russia. here's a partial list of trump associates or campaign officials who had contact with russians during the campaign. donald trump jr., jared kushner, jeff sessions, michael flynn, remember that guy? michael cohen, paul manafort, george papadopoulos, currently in p

july 22nd of that summer, wikileaks releases a batch of dnc e-mails. july 25th, roger stone e-mails jerome corsi about contacting julian assange. the next day, july 26th, trump sends a tweet denying he has investments in russia. it read, quote, for the record, i have zero investments in russia. that was a message that trump worked hard to repeat on the campaign trail. >> i will tell you right now, zero -- i have nothing to do with russia. >> i have no relationship to russia whatsoever. >> what do i know about the russians? what do i know about the russians? then they said, he borrowed money -- i don't borrow money from the russians. i promise you, i don't have any deals with russia. i had miss universe there a couple years ago. other than that, no. i have nothing to do -- >> michael cohen is to be sentenced in two weeks, december 12. he has already pleaded guilty to a range of other charges including campaign finance violations for his role in paying trump's alleged mistresses for their silence before the presidential election. that guilty plea was wit

that hack, by the way, of the dnc broke in the "washington post" on june 14th of 2016, which according to cohen was on or about the same day of the last discussion about the moscow trump tower deal. evan perez is "outfront" live in washington and evan, you have new reporting tonight about how and when the president's team found out what cohen was going to do today. >> reporter: that's right, erin. it was yesterday, last night, in fact, that the president's legal team was notified by the justice department that this plea agreement, this plea from michael cohen was coming today. we were told that this is part of the procedure of the justice department, that they briefed the white house before significant legal matters happen. you remember back in june -- i'm sorry, in july, before the justice department indicted some russian intelligence agents, they -- the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein went over and briefed president trump before he left for helsinki about that coming indictment, so that is not unusual. but we do know, erin, that obviously the president has been very, very dist

do their troops on they have -- do the troops on the dnc have firearms? this is a little more important korea, ascting south important as that is.s. it's our country. there are a lot of things trump could do if he has to, if he's not going to build a wall, which apparently he isn't. he could go a few yards into mexico, have an emergency .military action there. but i don't think it's going to help with billy clubs. [laughs] >> lisa: allen -- so secretary kirstjen nielsen said yesterday that there are 500 criminal -- in the mix of the migrants as well as gang members. i want to play some sound for you, former i.c.e. director tom homan and get your thoughts on it. take a listen. >> i was called a fear mongerrer. fortunately i was right. we will talk about more caravans entering illegally, puttingr. their hands in criminal organizations, bankrolling drug cartels who control the corridor was heading to the border. these people are put at risk. women will be raped, people will die, children all drown, people will be misused, as we have seen over and over, how m

what mueller doesn't say in the plea agreement is that june 14th, 2016, is the same date that the dnc hack becomes public for the first time. and remember, it's just about a week after that trump tower meeting with paul manafort, don jr., jared kushner and all of the russians who show up saying that they're there to help trump. so this is turning into a very consequential period of time in june 2016. and it doesn't seem like it's probably entirely a coincidence that trump tower/moscow died on the same day that the dnc hack was revealed if bob mueller is going out of his way in these court filings to make that argument. >> garrett graff, what a week it's been. >> amazing. >> and at least with these -- as you point out, these public court filings, just because matt whitaker is now this acting attorney general and everybody thought, well, what would that mean for the russia investigation and bob mueller, clearly he's going to get so much out there publicly that we will see the -- the public will be able to see what's developing. garrett graff, thank you. we will speak again, i'm sure. >>

to news of the russians hacking the dnc was this is a dnc houck. there making this up because they have such about the candidate. we can argue the three people in the entire known universe who were best able to say the russians are up to something were paul manafort, trump junior and jared kushner and even donald trump who conceivably was told of the meeting and this pattern continues at the democratic convention with the 22,000 emails that were hacked are released by wikileaks as part of a russian plot, at the time the clinton campaign tried to point out this is a russian attack, the russians are trying to middle in the election. donald trump junior and paul manafort both go on sunday shows and say clinton people are making this up, how dare they bring this campaign into the gutter by accusing the russians of interference. paul manafort goes on to say he has no connection with russians at all. he only owed $30 million to a russian oligarch who is powell's with vladimir putin. this pattern continues after the convention. donald trump gets out there

robert mueller is look into wikileaks and how it got that dnc information. joining us, what's going on in this country? we'll ask robert jeffress. author of the book, choosing the extraordinary life. let's start with this very close race in florida, and georgia, and arizona and other obviously other jurisdictions throughout the country. putting republicans under whatever guys against left wing basically socialist candidates and it's neck-and-neck. what do you make of it? >> i can't predict what's going to happen in those races. but here's what's going on overall. the left has been doing everything they to be delegitimize this president. first it was the collusion illusion. that hasn't worked out. now they created what i call the myth of the mid-term massacre. the idea that somehow the gop lost massive amounts because of trump's popularity. president trump did not have the shellacking obama did in losing 60 house seats and six senate seats. he had minimal houses in the house and picked up senate seats. there is a myth out there that somehow evangelical women

democratic strategists and former national political director at the dnc. thank you for your time this morning. before breaking down the numbers, what will happen today? >> good support for the caucus, and nonprogressive, so they will do well. >> 22 democrats voiced opposition. and the last few weeks, pictures on the screen, 435, the number you want to look at is 218 votes needed for majority. that has been tested in years past going back to 2015, 1997, and 216 votes and how many will she be able to get? >> nancy pelosi is a vote counter, she knows her power and she will get the 218 she needs and continue to work to guarantee those numbers are there for her to become speaker of the house. >> part of the problem is no one else has come out to be competition for her. >> i don't think it is that big a problem. it speaks to the volume of her being able to move the caucus and move the house. for the speaker, where is she going to place leadership and how are we going to make sure we are getting younger folks to the house in positions of power? that is what is go

producing dnc what turned out to cost the government millions of dollars going down a false narrative. we would want somebody who comes in to investigate all sides of that appropriately. having said that, it has been two years. mueller has not come up with one person in the trump campaign that was working with the russians, colluding in this election. any legitimate person would say, how much longer will he be allowed to go on a fishing expedition? he has not, but even a mac kerel. you,: a tough district for you're just going to a democrat. the story, orange county, the land of ronald reagan, john wayne. talk to us about how your district is changing and what that means for the future of republican politics in the state of california? >> first of all, i look forward to the transition with mark levin. he is a smirk young man, has the best interest of the district as his first priority. secondly, three quarters of the district was in san diego. when they did redistricting a few years ago, they gave me a big chunk of hard-core democratic areas that had , frankly, voted republicans out. n

dnc chairman tom perez. let's bring in former chair of the dnc and former virginia koerch terry mccol lof, you have been in the trenches of the democratic party for a long time. you've seen big victories and big defeats. how do you assess what happened this week in the midterm elections 2018? >> listen, if i would have said the day before -- i think we'll end up with 40 house seats, netting 70 governorships and seven knew chambers, you wouldn't believe me. this was a huge win for the democratic party. i traveled to 22 states campaigning the last couple months, big effort trying to make sure we win governorships. we have governors in michigan, illinois, wisconsin, now in kansas, nevada, new mexico, in maine for the redistricting in 2021. we got clobbered in 2010 and then they used that in 2011 to redraw maps all over the country. 2020 will be a new census. we have democratic governors in these key states and it will also help us. i as governor had a record number of vetoes. horrible anti-environment, pro-gun,

we already know for sure that the russian state hacked into hillary clinton and the dnc e-mails. we know those were put out into the public by wikileaks and the inten was to help the trump 2016 campaign. was there coordination between wikileaks and the 2016 campaign. and as you see mueller circling stone, they're going to be the fulcrum that connects wikileaks to the campaign. >> which is huge. in the legal world you use the word proffer. let me ask it this way. if he is in plea negotiation, does it mean he's giving up the goods or is willing to give up the goods if he gets a good deal. >> mueller wouldn't sign him up as a cooperator unless he knows what the guy has. you sit down with the guy, you proffer them and get all the information and you then decide is he believable, will he cooperate and then you decide and sign them up. i've used cooperators who have committed murders. that's not as hard as corsi who is literally a conspiracy theorist. if mueller does sign him up as a cooperator, corsi or mueller has hard evidence to back up whatever corsi tells him. >> alex alluded to

>> can you say to the american people unequivocally that you did not get this information about the dnc, john podesta's e-mails, can you tell the american people 1,000% you did not get it from russia or anybody associated with russia? >> we can say, i have said repeatedly over the last two months that our source is not the russian government, and it is not a state party. >> good morning. welcome to "am joy." it was supposed to be a secret, but thanks to a court document filed by mistake we have learned that the justice department is preparing to indict julian assange of wikileaks, the platform that published the russian hacked e-mails from hillary clinton's campaign and the dnc in 2016. the clue was found in a motion filed last august in a case unrelated to assange, a case brought by the same federal prosecutor. it's not clear what charges assange may face, but none of this bodes well for the donald trump white house. multiple outlets are reporting that donald trump is d

dnc chair tom perez claims the president's firing of jeff sessions is worse than watergate. we'll set the record straight with presidential historian doug wead. president trump: i will give you voter suppression. you just have to sit down, please. i didn't call you, i didn't call you. trish: the president trying to rein in an out-of-line cnn analyst. "trish regan primetime" begins right now. trish: president trump's administration rolling out tough measures that would deny asylum to any migrant that tries to enter our country illegally. they are en route to our borders. joining us, attorney misty merrick. walk us through the implications. but we have learned tonight from mexico that thousands of migrants are refusing mexico's offer of asylum. and not only that, they are demanding buses, buses to get them to the u.s. i would just say if you are really a victim in need asylum, wouldn't you take the first offer you get? >> absolutely, trish. that's something that has been addressed by president trump back in may. they were talking to the mexican government about a policy of the

that roger stone made a determined effort to access the e-mails that russian hackers stole from the dnc. >> fast forward two years. we have also learned that while paul manafort allegedly was breaching his plea agreement with the special counsel his lawyers were in secret contact with the president's legal team. that is only fuelling speculation that maybe there is talk of a pardon. what have we learned about what the president's legal team learned from manafort's team about the mueller probe? it's astonishing. >> it's deeply unusual. it's not illegal, but it has been revealed that there is a certain level of coordination between the president's team and manafort's legal team in the two months that since manafort struck the plea deal and has been cooperating with the special counsel probe. he was supposed to be a star witness in the probe. he was given a break. 10 of the 18 charges that he was handed were dismissed. and he was essentially going for leniency. what we have learned now is that kevin downing, paul manafort's lawyer has been talking to the president's legal team, rudy giulia

circle to push the idea that rich was murdered, tweeting in august of 2016 that rich had ties to the dnc heist. corsi used infowars and youtube to push the notion that he was a disgruntled supporter of bernie sanders who stole the e-mails to get revenge on the dnc and was killed as a result. >>> president trump tweeted, quote, so much happening with the now discredited witch hunt. this hoax will be studied for years. the president retweeted a series of tweets from parody and fan accounts yesterday that includes more controversial statements, inaccuracies and misinformation. another of trump's retweets claimed illegals can get up to $3874 a month under federal assistance program. our social security checks are on average $1200 a month. however the u.s. political editor for the daily mail responded saying the claim was based on a document about a refugee family, not undocumented immigrants and that the case was in canada, not in the united states. >>> following the news that general motors will close multiple factories and lay off more than 14,000 workers, president trump is renewing his t

. >> harris: jehmu greene is a former candidate for dnc chair, david developed is the gopac chairman. you hear the president there talking about making a difference. what do you say about it? >> he has certainly had a profound impact on this election. but i think the interesting thing is he probably had more of an impact on the opposition. and that is because we are seeing a record number of barrier breaking candidates from the communities that have been hit hardest from this president who are running for office. but it's so interesting, how fascinating he is in talking out of both sides of his mouth. 2006, 2010, those were rebukes of president clinton, president bush, and president obama respectively. 2018 will certainly be a referendum on him and it's shaping up to be a rebuke of him and the republicans inability to hold them accountable. >> harris: the accusation of talking out of both sides of his mouth, what do you say about that? >> the biggest deciding factor in midterm election since 1950 has been the economy. when the economy has been as strong as this economy is right now, t

an american citizen. >> stressing on national campaigns, they've been raising money so the rnc and dnc can make a national campaign, get out and vote, your vote matters. it matters but they need to have another commercial saying election commissioner -- it doesn't mean it's on them. >> harris: we had a guest on "outnumbered" who made the point that he felt like the governor didn't previously fire brenda snipes, with all of her past challenges and illegality because of race, because she is african-american and i said the only race that counts is the governor's race and the senate race. why do you think he didn't fire her? >> i'm not sure but i think the question of the election, one of the things elected officials have to pay more attention to because it's one of the least focused on things during their time in office when it comes to election day, there are 350 other days of the year where this stuff is going, people are preparing and i think these kind of personnel decisions are really important. >> i think he should have fired her as soon as she had that discrepancy when she was foun
