you have the people speaking up to say they don't want washington to pick their candidates. they want a say. on the democratic side, bernie sanders has shown the people matter and the people can speak up and change the democratic establishment. hopefully that change is going forward and republicans elect someone sane. >> marco rubio won expectations. big win for ted cruz. can he keep that momentum in new hampshire? i'm not sure. hillary clinton may have won, but it would have been groundhog day all over for her in iowa although she won a tiny bit. donald trump is a loser today. >> maria. >> hillary clinton wins becoming the first woman to ever win an iowa caucus. bernie sanders did great. also a win. the democratic party wins. they are focusing on the issues that all americans care about. compared to republicans who will nominate somebody who is anti-woman or anti-latino. >> all right. ben. go. >> i'll say this. donald trump proves arrogance and cockiness does not win you the white house. ted cruz did better than anyone thought. marco rubio is a guy that has a little mo comi

washington post i have to tell you i have respect for jeff but he bought the washington post to have political influence and i got to tell you we have a different country than we use to have. he owns amazon. he wants political influence so that amazon will benefit from it. that's not right and believe me, if i become president, oh do they have problems. they're going to have such problems. and one of the things i'm going to do and this is only going to make it tougher for me and i've never said this before but one of the things i'll do if i win and i hope i do is i'm going to open up our laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money. we're going to open up those liable laws. so that when the new york times writes a head piece which is a total disgrace or when the washington post which is there for other reasons writes a head piece, we can sue them and win money instead of having no chance of winning because they're totally protected. with me, they're not protected because i'm not like other people but i'm not taking mone

when the washington lobbyists settled on other lobbyists in this race. when the media in one voice said a conservative cannot win, nationwide over 800,000 contributions poured in to tedcruz.org as courageous conservatives said, yes, we can. 800,000 contributions at tedcruz.org with an average contribution of $67. that is the power of the grassroots. but it's more than that. it's 12,000 volunteers here in the state of iowa. it's over 200,000 volunteers all across this great nation. you know, during the course of this campaign people have asked heidi and me are you tired? and i will admit it is 16, 18 hours a day, 6, 7 days a week. we are not tired at all. ♪ >> to the contrary, we are inspehred by each and every one of you. i leap out of bed every morning amazed that at a time when our country is in crisis, every one of us has the opportunity to stand and lead, that we have been put in a place of leadership. for such a time as this. >> all right, we're going to breakaway from ted cruz. there you see, hillary clinton and her husband and daughter. she's ab

in this campaign, you've heard a lot about washington and about wall street. now, senator sanders and i both want to get secret, unaccountable money out of politics. and let's remember, let's remember, citizens united, one of the worst supreme court decisions in our country's history was actually a case about a right wing attack on me and my campaign. a right wing organization took aim at me and ended up damaging our entire democracy. so yes, you're not going to find anybody more committed to aggressive campaign finance reform than me. we also agree -- we also agree that wall street can never be allowed to once again threaten main street. and i will fight to reign in wall street. and you know what? i know how to do it! [ applause ] so no bank can be too big to fail and no executive too powerful to jail, you can count on it. now, the real difference is in this race are truly over how do we create a future of prosperity, opportunity, and security for all of us? we need to build a growth and fairness economy, with higher wages and more good paying jobs, including

i encourage you to examine my voting record in washington. it is up there with anyone in washington but i believe i unite this party as i have proven this week with more and more people coming on board and grow it. i believe i give us the idea to take conservatism to people that haven't voted for us in the past and instead of watering down the principles, convincing them our principles are the right way forward. that's a better future for america.

let's go back to wolf in washington. >> our political directors, you are looking at all the numbers. who showed up and what they won. >> he asked the voters as they showed up, what are you looking for in a candidate quality. this will help explain to everyone watching why ted cruz is where he is. take a look at this. among the voters that said i am looking for a candidate who shares my values, ted cruz is demolishing the field. 37% for cruz and 21% for rubio and 16% for carson and 7% for paul. that is 41% of the republican electorate. that was an important quality. when we asked about the quality of someone who can win, the electability question. rubio and 25% for trump and 22% for cruz and 2% for carly fiorina. not as many caucus goers looking for electability as for someone who shares their values. this quality, telling it like it is, that is the donald trump thing. that is what he is campaigning on. 67% of voters looking for a candidate who said i want someone who tells it like it is. only 15% of the republican caucus going electorate is looking for that quality. with four oust te

"washington post" poll find 54% of the voters consider it extremely or very important. 43% say it is somewhat or less important. but in that very same poll, 61% of the conservatives say that judicial appointments are extremely or very important. and i would say, that is, that is how i feel, guy. elections have consequences. this is a huge, pivotal moment for the republican party. so who is best suited to articulate the strongest case in nominating a conservative? i think best answers in the debate came from ted cruz and marco rubio. this is real clarifying moment in the race. i hope republican voters wake up and say, wow, with scalia wrong, time to get serious. look at balance of the court. over last few years 5-4 decisions hanging by a thread upholding religious liberty about, freedom of speech, second amendment. 5-4 decisions. scary to me it is even that close. the next president will have opportunity not just to replace scalia and but pick at least one or two additional justices this is not an election that people who care about the constitution can afford to lose. so i know there

welcome to washington. i am bret baier. the gloves are officially off after a night of blistering attacks leveled at the front runner from senators marco rubio and ted cruz, a man known for not backing down, and chris christie. christie endorsed donald trump today. you may remember, christie attacked rubio for repeating himself at the debate in new hampshire. a short time ago i asked senator rubio about christie's endorsement of trump, i will have that answer in a moment. first, chief correspondent

this happened in woodbridge, virginia, 20 miles south of washington, d.c. there are still so many questions in this case. we are hoping police will be able to answer some of these questions at a press conference which is scheduled to start here about just about 15 minutes. eric. >> kristen, we will certainly keep our thoughts and prayers to keep the officer in those thoughts throughout the day. thank you. >>> back to politics now. the countdown is on for super tuesday. and if polling predictions hold out, hillary clinton is well on her way to victory in at least three states. a new poll shows her way out in front of bernie sanders in georgia, by 34 points. she also has a sizable lead in tennessee and texas. let's talk about this with vince coalin ace. political insiders are forecasting a super tuesday surprise from bernie sanders because he is neck-and-neck with hillary clinton in five states. still, can sanders stay alive without winning the african-american vote or the latino vote? and can sanders win the electability contest? >> well, he has definitely g

i'm shannon breem in washington, welcome to tonight's faceoff. tonight's debate was a closing act before new hampshire voters go the to polls. the candidates gave as good as they got. >> i'm not making promises that i cannot keep. >> i haven't quite run for president before. >> this is no disagreement on universal coverage for health care. the disagreement is where do we start from and end up? senator sanders want us to start over again. >> the idea i would dismantle med wri care in america is not accurate. secretary clinton represents the establishment. >> i've got to jump in here, because honestly, senator sanders is the only person i think would characterize me a woman running to be the first woman president as exemplifying the establishment. >> being part of the establishment is having a super pac that raised $15000000 from wall street. >> i think it's time to end the artful smear that you and your campaign have been carrying out in recent weeks and let's talk about the issues. >> if hillary clinton is going to take a bite out of sanders lead

. >> meanwhile, another anti-establishment candidate, ted cruz, who opposed washington from inside washington, won the iowa caucuses. >> iowa has sent notice that the republican nominee will not be chosen by the washington establishment. >> the way to earn the title of outsider, it helps if you call your own majority leader on the floor of the senate a liar. but, by his own sort of demeanor and actions, placed himself outside what he calls the washington cartel. it's a clever way to go about it, and we'll see if it pays off for him. >> wow, wow, wow. so beautiful. >> and then of course donald trump easily won new hampshire. and now, after south carolina. >> we love south carolina. >> it is clear, 2016 is not going to be like any other year. >> so fresh out here. >> on the democrat's side, the results had once seemed even more sure. there was hillary, and then there was the rest of the field. most people couldn't even name them. >> today, i'm formally entering the race for the democratic nomination for president. >> certainly, there'd be no competition from the september jen arian candidate fr

sessions is with him on stage and it is another place where trump is getting support from washington and saying ted cruz does not have spoor forker from any members of congress or members of the senate, rather, and does it matter? of course. ted cruz has to win texas. trump is prepared to not win it but in talking to the campaign staff and some aides, they think he will win everything else and that will be a huge, huge thing in the vehicle terrorism the image of the wins but when it comes to delegate count, if trump pulled it off, say, eight or nine wins in the 11 states that are having primaries with binding elections, it puts a cork in it. it would be impossible for marco rubio or john kasich to much can up even if they won their home state, ohio and florida and two weeks on the 15th. >> karl, it is kimberly it looks exciting. listen, i am looking at the after affect of what is going on with the back and forth between marco rubio and trump and it seeps like the person that could be getting the most hurt by this is ted cruz who has sucked the wind out of his campaign and momentum go

the problem is washington d.c. and we don't need washington politicians coming in to fix it. when you look at who is remaining on the stage, there is no doubt that this is the person who will go to washington d.c. and turn it around. some have only been for one term and never shown up for work and telling us how to run the united states government. i believe that donald trump is the best person. and i was running against him. and i wanted to boat him and we had open conversations about that. but that part of this is over. as a good loyal american, who is the best person to stop hillary clinton from getting inside of the white house again? this is the best person to do. that turn around from the actour acts in washington d.c. and turn to a professional strong leader. >> ask him how he is going to do this? >> as a former chairman of the republican governor, [inaudible] >> no, what my intent for being here today to say to anyone willing to listen. not just members of the rnj and donors, but american people. you need a strong tough leader to restore america greatness and this is

it was washington, d.c. mosque, attempting to reach out to muslim-americans at that time saying these acts of violence against innocents violate fundamental tenets of the islamic faith but doesn't that make it so clear this isn't, the controversy isn't around obama visiting the mosque. it is the mosque that he is visiting. >> when was last time actually president obama went to see and talk to christians and talked to churches? this is president who just made the biggest deal wit biggest terrorist current from from -- country in the world. christians are being killed all over the world. president wants to take out bible from schools, in god we trust. all these things are slowly going away going to a mosque and association with terrorists. bush, it was a different time. also, bush used to pray every morning. he was a christian. so you kind of knew this guy actually went to church. president obama he has never talked about christians. i mean there is an epidemic right now, wordwide, that christians are being sl

steve hays and david drucker for the washington examine canner. first thoughts, legacy and the man, steve? >> i think antonin scalia will be one of the most influential justices in the supreme court and very few peopl that. you look at his dissents and he left a guide for people who follow him, not only on the supreme court but in lower courts as well. to a true understanding of the original intent of the founders. it is it something we don't spend enough time talking about. and liberals look to him. and i think they are wrong. one of the things that the presidential election is fought over is returning to that original intent of the founder ares or whether we disregard many of the things that was said and that was a point of emphasis for him. we had antonin scalia at the weekly standard in january of 2010, i want to say, he spent two hours with us all off of the record and i can't get into detail. but couple of things stood out. he was hilarious. side splittingly funny and many of us had tears rolling down our face as he told stories about the co

washington post said it well this morning. they said i'll trump as far is the media is concerned has gone from being on thinkable to unethical. without passing go, it's just extraordinary the way our colleagues in the media almost all of them who cover politics full-time have been wrong about trump suddenly all of a sudden there's no way to stop him or as drudge said, it's over. well it ain't over and i think what you heard from marco rubio last night and the thing he's now settled on which is absolutely that the weak spot of donald trump which is the gap between as steve says what he says and what he does, the fact that he only hired 17 300 people who applied for jobs in florida, that's where he's going to be hurt but the media have only recently turned their attention to that. gregg: trump leads in almost12 states or 11 states that will vote next tuesday . which stands in stark contrast of course to what many in the media and pundits were saying last summer and in the fall. our pundits finally admitting you know what? we did

joining me now is a look at this is a political columnist at "the washington times." good to see you tonight. >> good to see you. >> you watch these debates. i'm at home watching it last night like everybody else, and you're like, why don't they ask this or that. there are still things that people need to be pressed on, and issues that really haven't been touched or people haven't had to sort of, you know, come up with a lot of the information on their own. they are being handed a lot of it and saying, what do you think? what would you do, charles if >> of course. and you have to remember all the questions that have been asked that haven't been answered. >> absolutely. >> but i think with marco rubio, probably the biggest question that he needs to be asked and needs to answer is when he won the surprise victory to become florida senator, he was a rock star in the conservative movement. he was -- the tea party loved this guy. he picked off a governor that had betrayed -- the tea party didn't like. and he came here and the one important -- most important thing he's done

. >> for months the republican establishment in washington and elsewhere was convinced that donald trump was going to implode, there was no way his popularity could last, he was saying outrageous things, surely this was going to end and for months you and i have been speaking about this and i have seen no evidence that he can be stopped, that he won't get the nomination. i hope that the republican establishment is realizing that this man is here to stay and they need to rekon with him. >> they probably are. they're trying to at least and i think part of the reason why they're quite concerned tonight is because all of their potential candidates who are if had that cluster for second and third place, it was sort of a circular firing squad. >> john kasich was twice -- donald trump beat him, 16% to 35%. >> voters wanted somebody from outside the establishment, outside politics and that's what they chose. >> wolf, back to you. >> thanks very much. it wasn't close. 50,000 votes he beat kasich in new hampshire. donald trump by 50,000 votes and they're still counting the votes. 91% of the vote i

king marched on washington unafraid to challenge the status quo to end racial profiling, take on police misconduct and take down a system that profits from mass imprisonment. >> there is no president who will fight harder to end institutional racism. >> this, to me, is the defining test of this race. because of where the calendar goes next. where you have either majorities or high pluralities of african-americans in the democratic electorate. if bernie sanders can break through and get a sizeable number, that means a longer race and a changed race. >> and the place to look when we get numbers out of south carolina is younger african-americans because the big question is going to be whether younger african-americans vote their race or their age. younger people have flocked to bernie sanders. and why wouldn't a younger african-american connect with his message the way a younger white person would? that's the argument that the sanders campaign is making. >> that's why you see people in the congressional black caucus come out and more aggressively support hillary clinton as they did last we

joining us is a technology executive here in washington. i'm really seeing this on my facebook page. the tone and particularly people yelling for and against trump is not very facebook-like. what do you see? >> facebook, you think of this friendly neighborhood where i would go to see store yifz my friend's travels and pictures of my friend's kids or dogs. now as you log on, it is comments, fights being picked between people on facebook pick people on facebook. and it is deteriorated a lot in my opinion in the past few months. >> more like twitter where you expect to see brawls breaking out. i saw randomly people deleting people for backing trump. madeline cain. a bernie supporter recently blocked me after she objected to the unnamed bernie supporter calling hillary and wall street hooker and worse. things that i can't say on the air. >> the things that surprise me, people coming out of the woodwork that i didn't know had political views. one of my friends shared a story from a news outlet on trump with the comment yes if you intend to donal

they're disgusted with what goes on in washington. they're disgusted with the supreme court making decisions that take our freedom in the states away. what you're seeing is a reaction to that. here's a nonpolitician that is speaking very plunltly and people are saying, finally somebody is saying something. so i understand it fully. i think the danger is we may not like what we get if we vote that way, rather than actually look into what are the real answers to the real questions for mr. trump? >> and you've not committed to any candidate yet. >> no. i would say there's one candidate who has endorsed convention of the states. there's only one and that's marco rubio. i've not endorsed anybody. zbl thank you. the former oklahoma senator. all right. this whole tax thing really about taxes? or is it just taxing? from the moment they wake up, doers don't stop. every day is a chance to do something great. and for the ones they love, they'd do anything. sears optical has glasses made for doing. right now, buy one pair and get another free. qu

let's bring in our panel from washington. charles from the washington times. ron, the senior political columnist of the national journal and singled indicated columnist, charles krauthammer. your thought about last night and how it defines this race going forward. >> one thing, we had huge turnout and more favorably on the republican side than the democrats. you had people like david axelrod warning this could be a bad sign for purple state like iowa. on the republican side, i was struck by, it was kind of satisfying for someone like me who has had a problem with donald trump, watching him get beat by a pickly canadian. and looking at the internal of the polls and seeing that most voters in iowa, and the republican field were looking for a candidate who cared about them. who were like them. of those voters, only 5% voted for trump. it was kind of ironeck that donald trump was the outsider. >> charlie, trump is touting an endorsement tonight. he is 200ing the form he senator from massachusetts. scott brown, who will endorse donald trump. what do you think his c

justice scalia's replacement will not be decided by the washington power brokers. >> we all want to get secrets on accountable money politics that start with appointing a new justice to the supreme court. >> now, the supreme court returns from a month long recess tomorrow. and they will begin hearing article arguments with only eight justices on the bench. it is rare to have a vacancy in the middle of the term. but it is a hard to imagine any scenario where that seat will quickly be filled. senate republicans continue to pledge they will block any replacement that this president appointments. >> arthel? >> it was a big victory for donald trump in south carolina. and a crucial win for hillary clinton in nevada as both parties held political contests on opposite sides of the country. trump taking 32.5% of the vote and most of the state's delegates. senators ted cruz and marco rubio remain locked in a battle for second place, both with double digit support. meanwhile, over in the silver state, hillary clinton wins the nevada caucuses by thin margin edging ott bernie sanders by about 5%. jo

and washington liberals may call south carolina less hospitable. >> so washington liberals. not exactly new york values. >> i think the republican party understands full well cruz is the only candidate to successfully taggel donald. >> i think he felt he didn't think he was going to do that well in new hampshire. donald trump claborred the establishment here, and doing big rallies and tv interviews every hour and a half, but moved the terms of the debate, many said were outrageous, andkeepino the states. >> they love that here. >> he has other candidates debating on his turf. >> we heard the opposite nal sis after iowa. they were like, he didn't campaign, he just flew in on big plane, and polls were overstated. all of a sudden, the media is like everything is wrong. it's all wrong. it's new. >> forget about everything, and the delegate count currently is you need 1237 delegates to win the republican nomination. donald trump has 17. ted cruz, ten. marco rubio, seven. john kasich, four. people ought to, as president obama would say don't get to we, we'd up. but i would say the

they're really frustrated with washington. that's why you see the candidates who are from washington. it doesn't get mer washington than two senators running away from that record. marco rubio saying he doesn't want to be in the senate anymore, ted cruz staking himself as an anti-senate senator. there's no doubt they want someone from the outside. they get the sense they're frustrated and angry and donald trump has embodies that for them. >> you have to wonder what that means for those going forward in the senate and the house. voters are saying they're very angry with what they've done. interesting, marco rubio, there was one category that he did win and that was the category essentially people who think that he wanted experience, people who did want experience wanted marco rubio, and he hasn't been in this senate all that long even. >> yeah. you know, he paints himself as a 1-year conservative. that's a new part of his stump speech he's put in there in the past weeks. he kbos back to his time in the florida legislature as a

presidents' day started in 1885 in honor of george washington's birth6y day. today it's a day to celebrate all presidents, and today is abraham lincoln's birthday. there's mike, who directs the broadcast. look at that beard he grew just in honor of abe. mike, fantastic. you're so in the spirit. here's shep. >> noon in the west, 3:00 in south carolina, where finally for the first time in a month or so, we have presidential new poll results for that state. that new poll shows donald trump is crushing it with a double digit digit lead and doing well with evangelicals. could that be big trouble for ted cruz? today the billionaire ills not backing off, slamming cruz on twitter. also, jeb bush finished fourth in new hampshire but his team says he is so popular in south carolina they've need bigger rooms to hold all the supporters. catch the democrats' debate? things got a little feisty. that and hillary clinton's work to get back some momentum after bernie sanders wins in the grandit?

hello from fox news in washington. the in thaws break on saturday the death of supreme court justice antonin scalia. the passing of this conservative giant leads a big hole on court and it sets off a fierce drug el whether president obama should name the successor or leave it to the next. we will ask marco rubio and bernie sanders in a few minutes. but, first, we will bring in chief legal correspondent, reporting from the supreme court. shannon? >> yes, he is described as larger than life and now it is true of antonin scalia both on and off the bench. he was a spirited jurist and did not apologize about his philosto the words of the constitution but ask, what did those words mean to the society that adopted them? that is the same thing i do with legislation. what do the words noon? what is the fair understanding of them? >>> antonin scalia was then for being unmovable when he reached a decision and often penned fiery dissent on the losing end of an opinion. dissenting from the decision to legalize gay marriage around t

ted cruz, the worst kind of washington insider who just can't be trusted. >> that's tough stuff. of course ted cruz is not one to sit back and let that happen. he released this ad earlier tonight. >> look, i got the trump action figure. >> no way, it's huge. >> what does he do? >> he pretends to be a republican. >> bailouts for the banks. >> too big to fail. >> i gave money to pelosi, reid and anthony weiner. >> hey, hillary, i'll give you money to be my house. >> check out my house, mr. trump. >> that's a lousy house people going to take your house and park my limos there. >> we wouldn't tolerate these values in our children. why would we want these in a president? >> well, that is the most interesting interpretation of eminent domain i have ever seen. dana, we are now entering a truly new phase of campaign. anyone who thought it was negative before, well, you ever ain't seen nothing yet. >> that is definitely a memorable ad that ted cruz has up but i thought that the donald trump ad was particularly p potentially devastating but if you saw at the end he used the words "trust-ed

. >> reporter: cruz was in washington for the funeral services of ant nonscalia. marco rubio after coming in fifth in new hampshire, attacked cruz all week for dirty politicking and jumped on the flag flap. >> to kind of bring that up again in a robo call on the day before the election, those are the kinds of things that obviously concern people. >> reporter: most candidates worked the polling places today after batting away rumors of salary cuts earlier this week, jeb bush dismissed a report that staffers are shopping their resumes to other campaigns. >> yeah, it's trash. politico, it's trash. they never have a source. >> reporter: ohio governor john kasich was campaigning massachusetts and vermont to illustrate there are other states ahead. >> i'm going to do my best to stay positive and try to sell my ideas without having to run anybody else down. >> reporter: at the back of the pack, dr. ben carson had seven campaign events in south carolina before the polls closed. six months ago there were 17 republican candidates in the race. tonight there are six. it's a p

security other than catherine haredge is live in washington. jushgs the state department official said the amount of intelligence that russians get is incremental compareed to enteleigence in other means. russia will make a proposal as one of the 34 nations that are in the treaty. russia wants to use high-powered digital cameras and sensors to gather information. this is for greater transare parency. and russia is selectively implementing the treating and blocking surveillance over moscow and other regions. it can collect on defense department sites in the u.s. and the annual global threatses. the nation's intelligence chief said the threat of spying is persistent and complex and evolving. >> russia and china pose the greatest threat followed by iran and cuba on a lesser scale. and the threat of insiders taking advantage of the access and removing national security information is a persistent challenge for us. >> reporter: the request to conduct surveillance flights puts the obama administration on the spot. it is now coming when russia is a pa

i'm going to washington and blow things up. i think that has captured a lot of people's imagination. and as a result you're seeing extraordinary crowds and support both for bernie sanders and for donald trump. >> there's always this talk about ground game and getting your people out. i remember in the case of nevada governor four years ago after you had lost to newt gingrich in south carolina, that was very instrumental that win in nevada with the ground game that you got going and turned things around. the other guys couldn't get that ground game together against donald trump, so i guess what i'm asking you is at this point is it his nomination to lose? >> well, i think there's no question but that donald trump has the clearest path to become the republican nominee. i think for the other people still in the race their path is becoming a slimmer and slimmer opening. and they're having a difficult time communicating to their supporters just how they could become the nominee. it's not impossible. i think it's very difficult for a

washington, d.c. they're not voters. they are volunteers. all the campaigns do this, but in the cloopt office she has a lot of people that work in the state department. i ran into a former lobbyist who are taking the day off to come out here and canvass. so you have supporters trying to rush into the early states because they realize that momentum matters and they realize hillary clinton is in trouble and they want her to get a victory to at least narrow the gap and in fact one person i just spoke to is a clinton supporter i mentioned came from washington said if we can get this down to single digits tonight and she loses close, they go to states where they think is more friendly turf for hillary clinton and they're hoping to finally get the momentum that has escaped hillary clinton in the early stages here. >> thank you. then there is the outside role of a possible michael bloomberg third-party run. he's been talking a lot with the financial times and tweeting an image of he and the british prime min

when you cut taxes by $5 billion and you grow over 400,000 jobs, that is a record that i can take to washington. >> if you add it up, kasich, bush, christie, put carly fiorina in there, even though she's an outside establishment voters, and marco rubio, donald trump would be in the rear-view mirror. but you have this cluster. >> and for kasich, the question is -- he may do well here, but where is he going to do well afterwards? it's hard to see him doing well in south carolina or the super tuesday states. and he does not have the kind of organization that he's built that could actually compete for a national campaign. that is the one thing that jeb does have going for him, while he has burned through a lot of money -- >> it's why ted cruz's campaign is quietly cheering for jeb bush. the ultimate representative of the establishment. but cruz's folks are cheering for jeb here in new hampshire because they want jeb, and more importantly, they want jeb's super pac to keep going to south carolina and keeping its fire on marco. >> we know there are a lot of evangelical tea party members in the south.

he has defined what he thinks is the wrong approach by washington and then he's offered what he believes is a rather simple remedies. that is something that's really resonating right now. >> but a lot of people in the beginning didn't believe that he could do it. >> that all of these people misjudged the pundits pm they misjudged the anger of the american people. >> they really shouldn't have because the three people who are the frontrunners right now, marco rubio in 2010, ted cruz in 2012 and donald trump in 2015. what do they have in common? they're the outsiders. and they have close to 60 and 70% in some places. and marco rubio now wears the establishment proudly. and the idea you can beat trump from the left, senator rubio himself was asked tell us which state you'll win and he said i'll win florida on march 15th. ladies and gentlemen, by march 15th, 50% of the delegates will have voted. he's skipping the first four contests 0-4, he's not going to win anything on super tuesday, according to mr. rub io himself and he may win florida. i think cruz has a much better chance of winning te

>> well, the federal court judge here in washington d.c. was clearly frustrated in court yesterday and reading the tv, sullivan at the very least is suspicious that the clinton server was fed up to control government records and bypass the freedom of information act law. by mid-april, a timetable will have to be agreed by the state department and judicial watch that brought the lawsuit for clinton's closest aids as well as state department under charge of the administration. >> this discovery agoing to cut through as we've been getting from mrs. clinton and the state department. people are going to have to go on the record and under oath in ways they haven't had to in ways before. >> fox news has also confirmed there's more clinton e-mails beyond the top 22 secrets that will be held by full by the end of the month because of highly classified nature because of the intelligence they contain. >> a story that continues to grow. thank you. hillary clinton brushing off the latest e-mail development saying it was nothing to worry about. >> i know

that's washington talk. >> that's not washington talk. >> i talk to everybody around the clintons. >> everybody around the clintons is what wrecked her campaign the last time. i wouldn't pay any attention. >> so what is he talk about? >> i tweeted right before the show, the tease so people could watch. i knew we would have this block and i was excited to talk about it. as soon as you have an ally like howard dean who at a table of journalists. no, no, her campaign is not in disarray. that's a sure sign the campaign is in disarray. it is like when a cabinet member is in trouble and, at the white house every day you have to say the president has full confidence in secretary so and so. i think andrea mitchell in particular seems to think there is a big problem. she's been covering this so long. she knows them very well. she covered hillary clinton at the state department and i'm sure the e-mail thing probably gets to her. that was happening while she was a reporter covering the state department. and right under her nose finding out there was a huge scandal. >> i talked to people close to

joining us now, david drucker, senior political correspondent washington examiner. david, let's with the democratic race. there has been talk in the last month or two that bernie sanders was really going to get hillary clinton a run for her money, that this was not going to be a coronation on the democratic side. as that narrative changed? >> i don't know if it's completely changed and it was clear after iowa and new hampshire that bernie sanders was giving hillary clinton a run for her money. nevada and south carolina look a lot better for clinton and heading into super tuesday she looks like she is a relatively good shape so it's possible the democratic race could be wrapped up a lot quicker than a lot of us thought. jon: could happen as soon as tomorrow? will she potentially run out with so many delegates that it would be mathematically impossible for him to catch her? >> i'm not sure about that and bernie sanders still has a loyal following. he's raising a lot of money but i think one of the things clinton needed to do given the dynamics of her race with senator

he's not just winning republicans and that fact has been lost by a lot of pundits in washington. jon: but when you look at the numbers, obviously donald trump has been winning but there are a lot of othercandidates in the lace . larry was just talking to jenna about the consolidating the competition. if you get some of the other candidates out, the thinking goes thatanybody else but trump could win . any larry says the fallacy with that thinking is that not necessarily every 10 crews supporter, if crews were to get out of the race, not necessarily every 10 crews supporter would go to any non-trump candidate. what you think? >> i actually disagree and here's why. i think the non-trump vote in this primary is the traditional republican activist. trump is not winning just the traditional republican activists. he's attacking all the republican leaders of the past. trump has done a good job of bringing in republicans and democrats and independents into the primary process. that's why he's winning. i don't buy that the cruz, k-6 and rubio vote are somehow in the credits or independence

ronald reagan came in and changed washington. one of the real differences. >> see you in south carolina. >> thank you. at ally bank, no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like vacations equal getting carried away. more proactive selling. what do you think michal? i agree. let's get out there. let's meet these people. it's my job and it's also my passion. . but with my back pain i couldn't sleep... so i couldn't get up in time. then i found aleve pm. aleve pm is the only one to combine a safe sleep aid plus the 12-hour pain relieving strength of aleve. and now... i'm back. aleve pm for a better am. what makesheart healthysalad the becalifornia walnuts.r? the best simple veggie dish ever? heart healthy california walnuts. the best simple dinner ever? test test test testeata test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test alnu let's celebrate t
