7:04 am
democrats had hopes dashed. the grandson of jimmy carter lost his bid to be governor of georgia. and wendy davis, the hope of democrats in texas didn't have a chance. >> you have lifted me up. you carried me on your shoulders. every single day. >> reporter: but perhaps the most embarrassing loss for president obama was in his home state of illinois. make sure we've got pat quinn back as governor. >> reporter: where both the president and first lady campaigned for governor pat quinn multiple times, but he lost anyway. this morning, the message from the white house is, we get it. as one senior official told me this morning, voters are extremely frustrated, and the president has a unique responsibility to make washington work. and robin, we will hear from the president this afternoon. he's going to have a press conference. >> we will. thank you. and now to the rising star of the republican party you were referring to just a moment ago. joni ernst, victory putting her party over the top. in the senate last night. this headline from the "des
7:05 am
moines register," saying it all. "history for iowa." she is the first woman from that state elected to the senate. and cecilia vega is in cedar rapid this is morning. good morning. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you, what a headline that is. what a major political upset this was in iowa in what had been barack obama territory, and all because of joni ernst who crushed her democratic rival, capitalizing on the anti-obama sentiment we saw sweep across the country last night. what helped push her on to the national political stage? we have all seen it by now, that ad, that famous political ad where she talks about castrating hogs on a farm in iowa. and now she said she's headed to washington to make them squeal, too. even taylor swift became a part of the race when a senior democrat out here compared her looks to the singer's. there are, though, some big firsts, as you mentioned. she will be the first senate headed to the senate from congress from iowa.
7:06 am
also the first combat vet in the senate. robin, i can tell you, all eyes now on 2016. the caucuses here in iowa start in, count it, 425 days. get ready, it's going to be a big race. >> and they are counting. we know that. thank you. and the republican tidal wave captured in magazine and newspaper covers this morning. look at "time" magazine, play on the iconic picture of president obama. showing mitch mcconnell as barack obama. that's "the new york times" right there. also, that's the "daily news" saying, "hope to nope." that's the beginning. bring in matthew dowd, democratic strategist, donna brazile. age fr and you saw that "hope to nope" coming into the night, looked like a rejection of incumbents. but this fell on the democrats and the president. >> it absolutely fell on the democrats. there is a brewing and growing frustration. both political and economic. and the voters took it out not only on incumbents, but democratic incumbents. only one republican incumbent
7:07 am
stadewide last night, and that's what i think the democrats realized this morning. and later today, the president is going to have a press conference to address the nation. and on friday, donna, he already said he's going to bring leaders from both parties to the white house. because people are wondering what these next two years mean to him, the results from last night. >> robin, i hope he brings more than coffee and donuts. it was a crushing defeat for the democrats. democrats lost not only in purple states and red states, which we anticipated, but we also lost in blue states. maryland, massachusetts, illinois. it was -- it was a crushing defeat because i think conventional wisdom said you know what? a tough year because of the president. but in addition to that, our candidates didn't have a message to galvanize democrats. and now democrats will have to do what republicans know how to do. that is to write an autopsy puéo report and hope we can rebirth the party in two years. i think coming into the night, the republican brand was as damaged as the democrats. how do they do coming out? >> the republican brand is still very damaged.
7:08 am
you look at the exit fols in both political parties are looked at very negatively. i think the republicans better not misread this. this wasn't a vote for them. it was a rejection for the president and a rejection of the politics that's been practiced the last couple years in washington, d.c. >> so to see a real difference today from the president and the republicans as well? >> i hope so. look, i think voters sent a message to washington, is that they want compromise. they want washington to focus on their concerns and they want us to stop fighting. >> and get the job done. that's really what the american public wants. they want the job done. >> we are going to hear from both sides today. thank you both very much. and the focus turning to 2016 as well and the race for the white house. earlier i spoke with one of the early favorites in the republican party, new jersey goff fler, chris christie. big night for the gop and governor's races. and the chairman of the republicans governors' association. chris christie. congratulations. you didn't just hold on to wisconsin, florida, michigan,
7:09 am
surprised dems in all of those blue states. >> it's because we had great candidates. and you know, george, candidates make the difference. and rga is there to help, raise money, raise awareness. but we had great candidates. governor-elect baker in massachusetts, brown in illinois, hogan in maryland, and governor elect hutchinson in arkansas. all good candidates. proud to have supported them. >> all taken from democrats. >> you said it was good candidates, but what's the larger message for washington and for the democrats coming in? >> governors who get things done win votes. rick scott in florida or paula paige in maine, or scott walker in wisconsin or rick snyder in michigan. all states people said we could not defend and win. remember, of the 36 races, we were on defense 22. we're the opposite of the senate story. we were on defense 22 of 36. and nine of our states, president won twice. so -- and we won eight out of those nine last night. >> you worked with the president
7:10 am
on issues including in the aftermath of hurricane sandy. what message should he take, if you were going to give him some advice, what would you tell him to do? >> sit down with mitch mcconnell and john boehner and lay out an agenda you can agree on. and i don't think there's any other way to do it. the president took a beating last night. and the fact is, you have to sit down, then, with the folks on the other side and say, okay, let's see what we can agree on together. and i think the president needs to lead. i have been urging him to do that for years. he needs to lead and work with these folks. some indications from the white house that the president is going to go forward with an executive order on immigration, lifting some deportations on his own. >> the president should look to work with the new republican congress. the people elected a new republican congress. and the president shouldn't look to go around them, he should look to work with them. >> what does this mean to you? you are looking at 2016. you had a big night last night. how does this shape your thinking about the presidential race? the biggest thing, george, it gave me experience in terms
7:11 am
of traveling around the country. for me and mary pat and the kids, to get a feel what would that be like? over the last 11 months, i have been to 37 states. in the last five days, 19 states in five days supporting gubernatorial candidates. so, i think it just gives you a feel for what that life might be like. now, as a family, we sit down and start to think about this stuff. >> fair to say you're any closer to running? >> no, not fair to say. i haven't had time to think about it. i'm on two hours sleep. fair to say, what i'm looking for is a nap. on the other stuff, we have time, and we will. >> okay. thank you for your time this morning. >> thanks, george. >> big smile on his face for two hours' sleep. >> he got more than you got last night. all the focus on the senate, rightfully so, big win for the governors across the country. >> what a surprise. people were not expecting the republicans to pick up not only their own states, hold states like florida, but win in places like maryland and massachusetts last night. and in illinois, the president's home state.
