we have the democratic national committee chair debbie wasserman schultz, there she is. she's standing by live. we'll discuss with her right after this. living with chronic migraine feels like each day is a game of chance. i wanted to put the odds in my favor. so my doctor told me about botox® an fda-approved treatment that significantly reduces headache days for adults with chronic migraine. 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. it's proven to actually prevent headache days. and it's injected by my doctor once every 3 months. the effects of botox® may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be a sign of a life-threatening condition. side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. don't take botox® if you have a skin infection. tell your doctor about your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may in

debbie wasserman schultz: i'm comfortable that the iowa democratic party ran a great caucus. i mean, just look at the results. we had the second-highest turnout in the democratic caucus history. stacey: wasserman schultz also says she thinks the iowa democratic party did an effective job, considering this was the closest race in democratic caucus history. steve: iowa congressman steve tweet on caucus night, before the voting began, that led some to believe ben carson was suspending his presidential campaign. king says he got some bad information from his staff on monday and went with it, when he should have checked it out further. he says he simply retweeted a tweet. rep. steve king: this began at the carson camp. they're the ones that fed the information into cnn. it was multiplied through cnn. and then, it came out on the twitter feed. steve: king says there was no ill intent. he does have roughly 29,000 twitter followers, so there's no way of telling how much damage was really done. well, this sunday, it's the biggest tv event of the whole year -- the super bowl. and it's

wasserman-schultz. obviously, congresswoman, nobody is expecting this race to end any time soon. you got two candidates, the races so far have all been very close. the thing that's different, though, between the democratic process and the republican process is this issue of superdelegates. and so we have had some hard to explain -- it's -- results that are hard to explain to people who don't care that much about politics without it seeming drastically unfair. for example, the fact that bernie sanders won by 22 points in new hampshire but the delegate count came out of the race basically even. is there an internal dialogue in the party about the superdelegate process and whether or not the party is going to stick with it? >> the superdelegates, i'm glad you're asking me about this, because the way the media has been reporting this is incorrect. there aren't pledged delegates, i.e., superdelegates earned at any of these primary or caucus contests, rachel. those unpledged delegates are elected officials, p

is it the same as debbie wasserman schultz or does she have a different job? >> well, i don't know. i mean, you know, she has been pretty quiet about hillary clinton's lies about ben gauze where four people died, her lies about emails. her lies about the clinton foundation. i didn't see the "the washington post" article talking about, you know, calling that out. but, you know, maybe she should. >> butjisn't that her job? if your job is not to take sides, if your job is not to -- >> -- of course not. i have said that rhetorically. >> all right. >> of course. i say that -- listen, i say it rhetorically to shoot back at "the washington post" that maybe they ought to issue a similar editorial, as dumb as it is, back to debbie wasserman schultz. >> all right. we're going to have another debate, political debate in this country between now and super tuesday in the republican party. what should would he be looking for or what should we prepare ourselves for? >> well, i mean, i would expect, you know, the field is getting smaller. i think the questions will be more detailed. i think when yo

this is a perfect opportunity to speak with congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz because she's a florida democrat, happens to just be the chairperson of the democratic national committee. congresswoman, thank you so much for joining me at this time. such a critical time, in fact, too. listen, last night i know you were watching when donald trump in his victory speech, you know, gave the de facto "i'm going to be the nominee." and there are a lot of voices saying the same thing. so with that in mind i want to ask you this -- and please don't tell me it's hypothetical -- there have been about 16 different highly-skilled political campaigns that have been faltering. they have spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying to take down donald trump, in fact, jeb bush spent $130 million and he's out. what makes either of these democratic candidates and the democratic national committee think they could do anything different than trump's opponents have been trying and failing at so far? >> well, ashleigh, as we near the end of the early state primary window, this is clearly now donald trump's re

. >> i think that was not debbie wasserman-schultz's finest hour. socialists believe in big government solutions, tax the rich and soak corporations. democrats believe in a market economy that needs proper regulations and guidance and believes in the market to help solve the problems. the fundamental realities of the electric that show bernie sanders will do well in iowa and new hampshire. but 30% of democrats are not socialists. they tend to be more centrist and pragmatic. democrats want a progressive who can win and bring healthcare to everyone. not someone with great ideas but ultimately the solutions are not going to work. jenna: it seems like that could be a defining variable of what a republican is. what do you think this means for the republican party and there is a battle within the party to define what a democrat is versus a socialist. >> bernard can better define who they are than their current chairman can. democrats have superdelegates in place for a reason. it's so if they don't like who the voters select they can put someone else in. f

debbie wasserman schultz said that this afternoon. i agree with her. but the point that he is making about president obama, he is attacking hillary clinton for aligning herself with president obama and saying that it's only because she's pandering to the black vote. i think that got hillary clinton a little insulted and an insult to barack obama. she's been sort of a loyal person in his administration. so, you know, that's was a low blow. i think hillary got a little insulted and pushed back. >> debbie wasserman schultz is also the chair of the dnc, a congressman from florida. she says she doesn't even think bernie sanders right now is a registered democrat. he's always been an independent senator from vermont who caucuses with the democrats. >> yeah, in some ways, though, isn't he more pure as a democrat? we talked earlier about the fringes of the parties. the left becoming more powerful and the right becoming more powerful. in many ways, bernie sanders probably relates to a strong part of the democratic base right now more so than a lot of democrats

she is with debbie wasserman schultz. >> thank you so much. chairwoman, i want to ask you what you thought about the tone of the debate. >> you know, i was really proud of both of our candidates. they did exactly what i as a party chair want to see from the democratic candidates for president, a robust, substantive deep dive on their vision and the issues that are important to americans and the direction that they would continue to take this country. i mean, they totally delivered on that. especially when it stands in stark contrast to what really has amounted to an insult fest that has been each of the republican debates. >> i noticed a little -- there was some finger wagging. a little feistiness. >> oh, yeah. it's a debate. that's what is supposed to happen. they got into it a little bit back and forth but instead of personal attacks, which is mostly what people remember from the republican debate, what they remember from ours are their differences and where they agreed on national security, health care, the economy, on continues to create j
