7:13 am
>> are those the hair raising numbers that trouble trump? >> it's a little early in the morning for hair puns, isn't it? they are a sheer disaster. the challenge for trump, he is owning the republican race right now, but the challenge that his rivals always bring up is those numbers which is the argument that he could never win in the general election because his negatives are too high, too many voters who just won't vote for him. in that quinnipiac poll, his numbers, people don't think he's honest and trustworthy. that's the exact same problem hillary clinton has. >> his opponents have tried to take him on directly or ignore hum. neither strategy seems to be working. >> those who take him on directly, as he points out, mr. it's rick perry or senator lindsey graham, they've taken him on and their poll numbers
7:14 am
have gone in the wrong direction. nobody is going to out-trump trump in terms of taking him on. you could imagine where a rival makes a case for themselves using trump as a kind of foil but no one has had the bravery to do that yet. >> the rnc demanded hillary clinton apologize for those remarks when she used terrorist and republican in the same sentence saying they share similar views on women. what was she doing there? is that going to backfire? >> that's just what she wants. hillary clinton's challenge is that she's running against herself. running against the special e-mail server she set up and disclosure after disclosure and story after story about the difficulties she's had explaining what she was up to with that private e-mail system. that's no good for her. she needs to get engaged in a fight with someone and bettered have it a fight with a republican so she's picking those fights and hoping they

7:18 am
the streets of new orleans. children crying in the superdome. >> what started as a natural disaster became a man-made disaster. a failure of government to look out for its own citizens. >> america failed the people of new orleans. >> in 2007 dearing his campaign for president, he promised to help mend new orleans, its infrastructure and inequalities, while noting the strides made sentence, including a $14.5 billion levee system the system said new orleans isn't finished. >> our work here won't be done when almost 40% of children still live in poverty in this city. our work won't be done when a typical black household earns half what the typical white house earns. >> reporter: they called their city the gate to america's soul. >> your efforts inspire me. no matter how hard it's been and how hard and how long the road
7:19 am
ahead might seem, you are working and building and striving for a better tomorrow. >> reporter: the president says the rebuilding effort is an example of what can happen when state, local and federal governments work together. now as you mentioned, former president bush is visiting a school here today. and on saturday, former president clinton will be here to commemorate ten years of rebuilding. >> tracy, thank you. still hard to believe it was ten years ago. a verdict in the sexual assault trial of a prep

7:36 am
questions. did they have sex at all? and then the fact the woman who was very emotional in court also sent e-mails after the fact that were very friendly to this man. how does the jury sort all this out? >> they find some way to find order. it usually comes from the foreperson. they have nine counts to go through. so the real question is, do they go through them count by count, which almost seems counterproductive even though that's the usual way. do they decide first, did they have sexual intercourse or other penetration? if so, was it consensual? those are the two big questions. in order to do that, they have to assess the credible ut of both the alleged victim and the defendant against each other. >> okay. you have prosecuted. you've done so many of these cases. sometimes it comes down subjective view. what does it mean that the jury
7:37 am
is, what, nine men and three women? >> that's the question of the day. here you have the stereotype is that women will support her, and the men will support him. having prosecuted and defended these cases, i think nothing could be further from the truth. you often find women who will say, it wouldn't have been me. i wouldn't have found myself in that situation. >> women can be tougher on other women. >> they can be. and men may be able to say just the opposite. i' not supporting him because i know what i was like when i was 18. stereotypes go out the window. i'm a firm believer in the jury system. it comes about by consensus. if you look at the physical evidence, the e-mails, all of those things can support or detract from each of them. so if i'm a lawyer, what do i want in there? i want one juror, if i'm a
7:38 am
defense lawyer, to be able to say the proof is on the government beyond a reasonable doubt. that's where the -- >> can you say what your personal opinion is? what do you think happens? >> i don't know what happens. there's a compromise verdict here. if they believe there's penetration they'd go for statutory rape. if they believe it was against her will, then they go for the whole thing. there are other charges here. but ultimately, in this case, if he faces prison time for the sexual assault that is felonious, if he faces prison time for that, we're talking double digits. if he faucfaces time for statut rape, it's a misdemeanor and he doesn't have to register as a sex defender. the distinction is really huge. the jury didn't know that. >> and labrie's lawyer? >> jay carney is a really good lawyer. he was the lawyer for whitey
