both sides. the candidates on either side of her she did hold her ground fairly well and maybe a surprise from this debate, a stand out performance from one under dogs. >> fronts runner hilary rodham clinton flanked by four other democratic candidates center spot was also the hot seat. i am in the middle here. and lots of things coming from all directions. secretary clinton was questioned about her flip flopping on key issues over the years. if you are learning you're going to change your position. i never took a position on keystone until i took a position on keystone. vermont senator bernie sanders took aim clinton not taking tough enough stance on wall street. you do not congress does not regulate wall street. wall street regulates congress. and we have got to break off >> and say please do the right thing. no, that's not, no. clinton held her ground a defended her record. just for record are you progressive or moderate?

i'm progressive but a progressive a that likes to good down martin o malgoing oh tack on sanders's sof record. exactly have you ever been to eastern shore. have you ever been to western mary lan with clinton oh xhooe. one of them still have great difference on madam secretary you're not for glass stegall you're not for putting a fire wall between this speculative risky shadow banking behavior. i am. former rhode island governor former jim web were on ends fighting hard hard for air time. frustrating because unless somebody mentions my name i can't enter the discussion. there were disagreements but no real fireworks so question many were came up secretary clinton email scandal clinton xet are came to her side >> enough of the emails. let's talk about the real issues facing america. thank you, bern. thank you.

didn't have enough to erase all questions about her emails and flip flops so there's still out there. as you've just seen, president obama in my opinion also lost tonight. none democrats on stage were very supportive of his record on the economy or obamacare. if the president was listening i'll bet he didn't listen for long. >> voters will have a while to figure out good what they heard tonight because next democratic debate more than month away. until then my guess poll numbers for hillary clinton will stay about where they are, they will go up a little for bernie sanders, just as pressure will go up on joe biden to get into the race. live in newsroom i'm andy hiller, that's my instinct. we want to get a developing story form are lamar odom. authorities a odom was found unconscious a nevada brothel. he was taking herbal substitute for viagra but no word if that had any effect on his condition. odom was a married to khloe kardashian for a time. and played basketball at the university of rhode island.
