matthew dowd, our political analyst and cecilia vega covering the hillary campaign. okay, we can't know for sure what the 30,000 or 40,000 un undecided voters in iowa think but you got to say at first blush it looks like trump's bet paid off. >> i absolutely think it dfrment part of the reason why it did, as him as the brash starting quarterback doesn't show up for the game, the trash talking backup quarterback fumbled the first few steps which is ted cruz and i think donald trump benefited by what happened on that age. >> it was the second one that fell flat. >> in the course of that debate you had a better picture of ted well for him. >> who did well. >> i think the interesting thing, others were able to shine and i think rand paul did very well in the course -- >> bush had a pretty good night. >> i think jeb bush had a good night and marco rubio in the first hour had a good night but in the end donald trump didn't show and won. >> hillary clinton came in for a lot of fire last night.

i think we have one ready to go. her campaign tweeted this image of donald trump out and with it, there you go, they say, she says trying not to throw my remote at the tv is what they were talking about. this plays into her narrative. she's even gone to the point where she called bernie sanders my friend. she's not talking about him as much on the campaign trail right now going above the fray and looking at republicans and even looking past iowa, i think, into this general -- >> pretty tight race but most polls show she has a slight lead and she's moved into a different phase. what's the plan for the final three days? >> cautiously optimistic, she is bringing in the big guns. we'll see her on the trail for the very first time with bill and chelsea this week looking well past iowa. they know the race is tight and i do think they realize this could be a loss and not bracing for it yet but ready if it happens. >> what's the biggest unknown? >> i think the biggest unknown is turnout. we don't know. everything about bernie sanders'

voters and so is donald trump's and depending if those show up it goes in two different directions. >> thanks very much. we're going to have full coverara here att abc news this week on sunday morning, "gma" and "world news" both live in iowa and a the results live monday night and next saturday the republican debate at 8:00 eastern. robin. >> a lot coming up. we turn to that other big story we've been following, the zika virus, boston reporting its first case of the disease. w more than 30 detected in the u.s. and take a look at this map. you see the outbreak originating in south america and moving north. abc's dr. richard besser is at ground zero this morning in brazil to answer some important questions. good morning, rich. >> good morning, robin. you know, when you walk around the streets of rio you don't get any sense there'something going on here of such big health concern, but when you talk to pregnant women, you get a very different picture.

the zika epidemic. the government here spraying the streets. we met fabiola already expecting when some said not to get pregnant. she tells me through a translator she knows zika is linked to babies with tiny heads ananbrains so she iss spending her paychecks on insect repel apartment. >> the level of alarm is extremely high. the world health organization said it's pulling together an ememgency response comomttee saying the zika a rus is, quote, spreading explosively. so far in the u.s., there are more than 3 cases detected in 11 states in the district of columbia. all brought back from travel abroad. >> zika is a relatively inconsequential virus for the general population, but if you're a pregnant woman who gets exposed it's a big deal. >> so, rich, if somebody comes back to the u.s. with that virus, is there potenti they

>> that's a big concern, robin, because if someone is infected and comes back to the united states and is bit by a mosquito, that mosquito can bite other people and be infected so if you come back and have any symptoms, you need to be seennd defininily need to use repellant. >> a lot of concern about pregnant women and wanting to know how long does the virus stay inhe sysm and could it possibly affect future pregnancies. >> when theyook at similar viruses similar to zika they find once a person has recovereded andhen theirir symptoms are gone, the virus is no longer in their body so they don't think future pregnancies will be at any risk at all. >> we heard a report there is a pregnant woman here in new york city with the virus. what precautions should she be taking? >> well, you know, thankfully there's no mosquito activity in new york city at this time so she spouldn't be putting other people at risk. but they're going to monitor her

baby has been affected and once that baby is born they'll do hearing tests, vision tests to see if the baby was damaged. we don't know how big the risk is to that baby. >> we hope all goes well for mother and baby. be safe coming back from brazil. for full coverage you can go to goodmorningamerica.com on yahoo! >> we move to that deadly shoot-out in oregon. the fbi released new video showing the roadside confrontation between an anti-government protester and law enforcement that left one of the group's leaders dead and abc'c'neal karlinsky has the latest. >> reporter: you're looking at video of the dramatic traffic stop taken by an fbi surveillance plane. investigators say that white truck is being drivenn by occupation spokesman lavoy finicum. as police stop the truck and another late tuesday afternoon occupation leaders are taken into custody. except finicum who doesn't surrender, instead after n nrly ur minutes sitting in his truck flanked by police takes off again.

>> may think it's a good idea cold weather to warm up your car while getting ready leaving the keys inside. a lot of us have done it. this morning police say please don't. we will tell you w w coming up. >> not a good idea. we begin this half hour, though, with that startling new theory about o.j. simpson from the groundbreaking dtor featured in the movie "concussion" and he is convinced his years on the field field may have given had i'm a brain disease. abc's ryan smith is here with that story. have you our attention, ryan. >> reporter: good morning, robin. a few names in sportss more polarizing than o.j. simpson turning him from a football star to a pariah but dr. bennet omalu thinks he has vtsz from thousands of hits on the football field and should serve as a cautionary tale. acquit. >> are you having a problem putting that on your hand? >> reporter: he's the most infamous football player in sports history acquitted of double murder, o.j. simpson's

nicole brown simpson and ron goldman now inspiring the new tv series "the people versus o.j. simpson." >> you want to make this a black thing? i'm not black. i'm o.j. >> reporter: this morning 21 years after the so far-called trial of the century, an intriguing new claim about the man at the center of it all. >> o.j. simpson is more likely than not suffering from cte. >> reporter: dr. bennet omalu, the doctor resesnsible for discovering chronic traumatic encephalopathy or cte in nfl players from repeated blows to the head believes simpson is a viviim of the disease. >> the truth. >> reporter: portrayed by will smith in the film "concussion" the world renowned forensic pathologist hasn't examined him personally and can only be diagnosed after death but he can identify the telltale signs of

>> explosive impulsive behavior, impaired judgment, criminality, even mood disorders. >> reporter: but the strongest evidence o.j. may have cte, he says, his college and 11-year pro playing careers. >> he was exposed to thousands of blows to his head. >> reporter: it's an assertion simpson himself once reportedly made using concussions as part of a legal strategy after his 2008 conviction for armed robbery and kidnapping in las vegas. >> i'm sorry. >> rorter: according to espnn during an appeal of his 33-year maximum sentence, simpson's attorney reportedly filed a sworn statement that he suffered numerous blows to the head and/or lded on my head olently while playing football. though he never relied on that concussion defense for his appeal, a new trial was denied. while dr. omalu stresses that cte doesn't excuse the criminal behavior that landed o.j. behind

serve as a reminder of the life-altering damage the sport2 can cause. now, dr. omalu claims he has yet to examine a retired player that doesn't have cte and that in his opinion athletes playing football to the pro level have a 90% to 100% of getting it. all the more reason he sayay to talk toids or talal to parents about whether kids should be exposed to all those hits on the field. >> we'll look at the legal ramifications with dan abrams who covered both of the simpson trials very extensively. ryan alluded to this. could this have been anything he used in either of his ses. >> not as a defense, per se, meaning he couldn't have said, look, i've got this and, therefore, i'm not guilty. he might have been able to argue, you should be able to give me a lesser sentence, because look at what i've been suffering called a mitigating factor in sentencing. but when it comes to guilty or not guilty, saying something

that's why we talk about t t insanity defense because the criminal law is so black and white in that regard. >> do you think now -- not just pro players talking college players, high school players, that if they get in trouble with the law that they couldld use this fense? >> i think we're actually going to see it a lot, particularly when it comes to sentencing. because you're going to see someone convicted of a crime, someone who is going to allege that, you know, they got hit a ton in high school or college, that's what led them to become more violent, et cetera, and, you know we'll see if judges accept it as a mitigating factor but again really important to distininish between guilt and innocence where this won't be particularly useful and the sentencing phase where someone could say, i should get a reduced sentence because of what i'm suffering from. >> this is bringngg a lot of attention to this, but not sure o.j. is the right spokesperson. >> he is the last person you want as the spokesperson for this, right? i mean, no one wants to sympathize with o.j. mpson, so whether he has it or doesn't

steve gomez says the maps may have helped the three get to a specific address or provided better understanding of the surrounding buildings and the jail roof. inmates are allowed three hours of outdoor recreation time a week. here at this jail it's done on the roof. >> reporter: ravaghi denies providing anything beyond the maps. according to police, escapees who are still at large may be living out of this white van which was stolen saturday in south los angeles. for "good morning america," kayna whitworth, abc news, los angeles. >> thanks toayna for that. coming up here, the latest on barbie's new look making headlines this morning. up next on "gma," the mistake you may make that could cost you your car and clayton sandell, you havav that coming up? >> good morning, robin. you know, in the u.s. a car is stolen about once every 44 seconds and for about half of those cars, you won't believe

patent but would give the company exclusive licensisi rights if theyame ton agreement. according to the complaint, mackinnon claims she sold tens of thousands of her inserts to the company from 2011 to 2012 until victoria's secret decided to terminate tear agreement and began making lower quality knockoffs. >> this specific case is a classic david and goliath story where you have an entrepreneur and a large u.s. conglomerate corporation. >> reporter: we're joined by rebecca and we also have "shark tank's" daymond john in orlrldo on tour for his new book "the power of broke" which by the way just hit "the new york times" best-seller's list. >> well deserved. >> thank you. >> daymond, we want to knoww what could deborah have done to protect herself. >> she should have had a non nondisclosure agreement when she goes and shops it to all these

look at this. it could have been a designer in a whole other department that reviewed that bra two years later and said i came up with the idea. the head of the company may not even know. >> is there some way you can go because i know so many people, they have these ideas, they don't know where to go. is there somewhere they can go. >> of course, you can go to an attorney which i highly suggest bu a ust -- united states trademark -- ustpo. >> uspto. >> that's my dyslexia kicking in. yeah, that's where you would go and that is the government site to show pat steps and trademarks. >> you could do that by yourself. >> it's uspto.gov. they actually have a section so we think about the cost of doing these thing, you hr a lawyer and think, that's going to cost me. they actually have a partf ththr site where you can ask for pro bono help. that means free help from a free attorney that has been doing these things that's been looking at pat tenses that knows exactly what you need to put into your patent in order for it to really
