>> and the new mr. october. daniel murphy with a record-setting performance, the mvp blasting home runs in six straight playoff games, what he's saying about his stunning power surge knocking off the cubs and keeping the curse alive as the mets sweep their way into the world series. and good morning, america. it has been a long time coming for the mets. they are going to the world daniel murphy. you see it right there, six home games. that is a record. >> he is a beast. >> we have so much more on that coming up. first we begin with breaking news overseas. a masked man with a sword attacking a school in sweden. details just coming in and lama hasan starts us off, good >> reporter: good morning. that's right.
7:02 am
a truly horrific and frightening attack as class was beginning. a masked man wielding a sword burst into a school in the town of trollhattan, sweden. he attacked four people killing one teacher and wounding two students seriously aged between 11 and 15. police on the scene shot the man who is now in critical condition. no word yet on the attacker's motive. amy. >> a horrific scene there, lama, thank you. we'll turn to hillary clinton and today's capitol hill showdown over benghazi. it will be an all day grilling for the front-runner hearing her allies calling it a political witchhunt. jon karl with the latest. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, george. this is a tremendously high stakes moment for hillary clinton. she will spend the entire day before a committee that has spent nearly a year investigating the biggest single crisis that she faced as secretary of state. this morning, hillary clinton will take the hot seat before
7:03 am
attacks. for at least eight hours clinton will face tough questions from the committee's seven republicans and five democrats. about the biggest crisis she faced as secretary of state. >> i don't know that i have very much to add. this is, after all, eighth investigation. >> reporter: in 2012 less than two months before the presidential election, a terrorist assault on the u.s. diplomatic outpost in benghazi, libya, left four americans dead. for the first time in 33 years, a u.s. ambassador was killed overseas. >> was it because of a protest, or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided to kill some americans? what difference at this point does it make? >> reporter: that was clinton nearly three years ago. the day republicans leading the inquiry want more answers. >> what i want to know is while violence was going up in libya why was our security profile going down? >> reporter: a majority of americans, 54% disapprove of clinton's handling of questions
7:04 am
around benghazi but as nearly the investigation to damage her reputation. >> she stood strong for america but now republicans are playing politics over benghazi. >> reporter: the super pac backing clinton's campaign is now airing its first after ad calling the hearing a sham. republicans on the committee insist they are not out to get hillary clinton and that they will keep their questions focused on what happened in the time leading up to and during the attack in benghazi. now, the clinton campaign is out with something right now previewing her opening statements saying that she will in that statement give honor to the memory of the four brave americans who died in benghazi and that, quote, benghazi was a tragedy that we must all learn from. amy. >> all right, jon, thank you. clinton may have a fight on her hands there on capitol hill but she will not be facing one from vice president joe biden. reaction coming in after he announced he will not be running for president and abc's david wright is here with more on that. good morning, david. >> good morning, amy.
7:05 am
among the 2016 candidates today respect for the vice president and relief that the field of candidates is finally set. the republicans now focused exclusively on hillary clinton. after flirting with the idea for months -- >> mr. president, thank you for lending me the rose garden for a minute. >> reporter: but joe biden called it quits just a few steps from the oval office. >> unfortunately, i believe we're out of time. the time necessary to mount a winning campaign for the nomination. >> reporter: clearly, biden wanted to run. but he said his grief over the death of his son beau had its own timetable. >> sooner rather than later when you think of your loved one it brings a smile to your lips before it brings a tear to your eyes, well, that's where the bidens are today. thank god. >> i think he did the smart thing because, frankly, i don't know that he would have won. >> reporter: campaigning in iowa donald trump didn't sound too disappointed.
7:06 am
>> frankly, i really want to run against hillary. i really do. >> reporter: on twitter adding sharply i'd rather run against hillary because her record is so bad. mike huckabee tweeted i'm the only gop candidate who defeated the clinton machine. only bobby jindal barely at 1% in the polls himself even bothered to acknowledge there was anyone else. democrats are now left with a socialist or a candidate under fbi investigation. he tweeted. >> it pretty much guarantees hillary will be the person that we're running against. >> reporter: the rnc released a new video suggesting that is how they see it too. and whatever else may be on the agenda for them today you can bet all of the republican candidates will drop whatever they're doing to watch the benghazi hearings hoping for something they can use. >> all right, david, thank you. >> no question about that. let's talk more with matt dowd. he joins us this morning of a new poll out from "the des moines register."
7:07 am
bernie sanders, 48% to 41%. 80% favorability among democrats in that state. is ben carson right when he says this combined with biden getting out of the race guarantees her nomination pretty much? >> i don't think it guarantees it, george, but the one big hurdle was removed by the vice president taking himself out of the race but she still has a few hurdles left, one is the benghazi hearing today. she has to get through that reamably well but bernie sanders is still there close behind. bernie sanders has a path, it's a very limited path but he has to win iowa which he's close in and win new hampshire where he's tied or ahead in but the path for bernie sanders got a lot smaller as of today. >> let's talk about the republicans. we just heard from ben carson. there's a new poll out in iowa from quinnipiac showing he pulled ahead of donald trump, 28% to 20%. a real milestone. >> reporter: i think this is significant because for more than 100 days donald trump has led every national poll and every single state poll. this is the first to come out that shows somebody else with a significant lead.
7:08 am
should be troubling to donald trump is marco rubio has taken a big jump up in the poll and looks like he's becoming the alternative establishment candidate in this race. >> that's what i want to ask you about. he has polled well ahead of a couple of points there in iowa of jeb bush who is supposed to be coming in with all these advantages but continues to slip. >> he's continuing to slip but i think part is debate performances. part of it is performances on the trail but part is people want somebody else in the republican party that doesn't have the bush name. bush when you look at his favorabilities in iowa especially in some of the early states is more negative than positive and so that's jeb's problem. marco looks like he's the establishment candidate on the rise. >> okay, matthew dowd, thanks very much. >> all right, george. now to those severe storms pounding the southwest and the hurricane fueling more rain for texas this weekend and ginger has all of that for us. >> yes, just got a brand-new report, odessa, texas, 16 homes flooded. 4 inches of rain in 4 hours. looks a lot like many until. the pictures there from the
7:09 am
flash flooding to hail covering the streets. flash flood watches taking up a lot of the state from central oklahoma back through much of west texas and eastern new mexico and then we're watching hurricane patricia which will die out over the weekend over mexico but fuel big-time storms. dallas to san antonio could see anywhere from 5 to 7 inches of rain upwards of a foot. i'll be back with the nation's weather and cold side, snowy side. >> snowy, okay, thanks. we turn to that major breach of our top spy's personal e-mail account. wikileaks has posted e-mails from john brennan's account and is threatening to publish more and pierre thomas has the details. >> reporter: this morning, personal information of the cia's top boss publicly exposed on wikileaks. including telephone numbers, home address, passport and social security numbers. details posted from six unclassified documents hacked this week from cia director john brennan's private e-mail account
7:10 am
information listed in a 2008 application for a national security clearance before becoming director. initially someone claiming to be the hacker said he was a pot smoking teen angered by the plight of the palestinians but sources tell abc news authorities are also looking at the possibility that a ring is involved. brennan's account appears to have been infiltrated by hackers tricking verizon and aol employees to reset his password. >> it highlights the risk all of us face when it comes to the security of even our private e-mail. >> reporter: the cia calls the personal e-mail hack a crime and that the private electronic holdings of the brennan family were plundered with malicious intent. the cia director's hack comes on the heel of another massive breach this which the information of other top officials was stolen including cabinet seconds and the fbi director. >> let me tell you there is a problem and people need to solve it. >> reporter: millions of everyday americans face the threat of identity threat.
7:11 am
if you thought top government officials were immune, think again. amy. >> all right, pierre, thank you for that. and now to a break in the deadly case of road rage in new mexico that left a 4-year-old girl dead. the alleged killer is in custody this morning and abc's ryan owens is in albuquerque with all the details. good morning, ryan. >> reporter: good morning to you, amy. police here say an anonymous tip led to an arrest and quickly they say to a confession. police say this is the killer behind the most heartbreaking case of road rage anyone can remember. 32-year-old tony torrez behind bars this morning charged with first degree murder. police say he's admitted to shooting and killing 4-year-old lilly garcia tuesday afternoon right after her dad picked her school. >> we have a confession and now it's up to the justice system to do its job. >> reporter: the arrest comes as some relief to lilly's heartbroken family including her 7-year-old brother isaac who was
7:12 am
sitting right next to his sister in the backseat of this pickup truck when she was hit. >> she just had the smile and these beautiful big brown eyes that just light up a room. she was so polite and, you know, she just grabbed your heart. >> reporter: police believe lilly's father and torrez kept cutting each other off as they approached an exit on interstate 40 in albuquerque. detectives say torrez pulled up next to the family and allegedly opened fire. >> i cannot imagine being the father of lilly. >> reporter: this newly released 911 call is from a motorist who witnessed the aftermath of the shooting. >> there's an adult it looks like an unresponsive child. >> reporter: this morning torrez $650,000 bond. george, the mayor here calls him not elaborate. >> okay, ryan, boy, that is just thanks very much. we turn to stunning new research about the dangers of
7:13 am
distracted driving. it concludes devices can impair concentration long after you stop using them. abc's david kerley explains. >> reporter: you've seen the video of teen drivers texting using devices then losing control. this morning new research says the distraction from devices and even talking to your car's entertainment system -- >> contact, joel cooper. oh. >> reporter: can last long after you stop using them. >> watch out. oh, it's green. yep. >> reporter: aaa found even after stopping the activity, drivers remain distracted for up to 27 seconds more traveling at 25 miles an hour, that's going the length of three football fields without paying attention to the road. so i hung up. and this is the time where you think that i still am not really engaged on the road >> that's right. you're in this distraction bubble. when you hang up it takes time for that to clear. >> reporter: the researchers
7:14 am
the older generation having more and driving. >> oh, my gosh, i guess that is a stop sign. whew. >> what we find is the young adopters. >> reporter: 10 car entertainment and 3 voice systems were tested some better fm. >> now listening to fm radio. >> some downright frustrating. >> okay, calling dell reed. >> reporter: the systems allow drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. for "good morning america," david kerley, abc news, washington. tom llamas has today's other top stories including a seventh church fire in st. louis. >> good morning. a new church fire under investigation in the st. louis area. arson investigators have been on the scene overnight. it's the seventh in a series of fires at mostly black churches in recent weeks. officials call the fire disturbing, fortunately nobody has been hurt.

8:10 am
gives him a sense of how short life is and you have to make the most of it which is why he's drawing a line in the sand saying he doesn't want to work weekends. his words now rocketing around washington. >> the last point, last point is personal. i cannot and i will not give up my family time. >> reporter: paul ryan, a candidate to be the third most powerful person in washington speaker of the house demanding a work/life balance so he can spend time with his family. it's a lifestyle that women have been fighting for for years. and now the man who could be two heartbeats away from presidency is shaking it up. >> for a woman to have said she wants more work-life balance i think she would be taken less seriously and coming from a man we see that it is positive. >> reporter: anne-marie slaughter who said women can't have it all and author of "unfinished business" says his words are helping to shift the debate. >> this will help women as well as men because this will say
8:11 am
that you can be committed to your family and still be committed to your career. and that's a very important statement. >> reporter: on wednesday, sheryl sandberg awarding paul ryan with the lean in award saying "having leaders would weigh responsibilities as fathers as much as their responsibilities to their jobs shows us all of us what is possible" a month ago paul ryan had pretty much turned down the job. >> this is a job where you are expected to be on the road about a hundred delays a year. our kids are 10, 12 and 13 and i'm not going to do that. >> reporter: but now he's willing to try it out as long as his conditions are met. conditions that not all his fellow republicans meet. >> speaker has to work on weekends. the time commitment is not 40 hours a week. >> reporter: some of them look at his insistence on spending time with his family and his reluctance to take the job as negatives and they're saying, why should we give the job to someone who doesn't want the job. >> reporter: others are perhaps more understanding. >> somebody who is so committed
8:12 am
opposed to his political future is part of the endearing quality of palmer. >> reporter: twitter on fire. one woman posting, oh, since paul ryan wants family time now it's up for discussion? another writing, maybe now some parents? his family has always been a central part of his life. posting photos of his three children all over his instagram. but his voting record includes a vote against a bill that would have given federal employees leave. some now suggesting that while ryan seeks to preserve his own work life balances's pushed policies that would have made doing so more difficult for others. in addition to ryan's gop caucus blocking president obama attempt to mandate paid parental leave he proposes cuts for subsidies for low-income parents and it might be raising eyebrows. he said he wanted to be vice president of the united states. a job that you imagine cops with some weekend duty and then here's the question of if this
8:13 am
same conditions, would she have been lauded in the same way? >> that's a very good question. >> it is. >> probably helps everyone and what made it work for him he was truly willing to walk away from a job. >> yeah. >> i do think it is refreshing to see people in public put responsibilities of their family ahead of just pure ambition. >> yes. >> great job, thanks, linsey. next up in the "gma heat index," elmo is getting a new friend. "sesame street" is introducing julia, the first muppet with autism. creator say they hope julia will help increase understanding among parents and children. abc's john donvan has more. sunny days keeping the clouds away >> reporter: the street, yes, this street is getting this new face, julia, with hair of orange, eyes of green and what you cannot see right off with autism. >> and she has some behaviors like not looking at you directly
8:14 am
in the eye, she's a little more sensitive to noises and lights, but when she comes together with abby and elmo she shares not only these challenges but what she shares in common. >> reporter: of course, introducing julia, a girl with autism who can speak and not all can, into "sesame street's" digital programming and into this storybook called "we're amazing, 1, 2, 3" well in keeping with the tv show's mission, different but the same, old news on "sesame street," a show that as it happens a lot of kids with autism have always loved to watch. >> these "sesame street" campaign is really helping them see that they're not alone and for kids that don't have autism and their family, they are learning about what autism is and how kids with autism are not that dissimilar to themselves. >> reporter: which is important because sad to say, bullying is so common. >> kids on the awe tim spectrum get bullied five times more often so it's really important that we have characters like
8:15 am
julia so children can learn to be accepting and understanding of one another. >> reporter: it's notable that "sesame street" picked a girl for this character. since girls with autism are outnumbered roughly 4 to 1 by boys and often their challenges get less attention. this muppet may help change that and if she does a few years from now we'll be thinking about julia the girl with autism as just plain julia, part of the gang on "sesame street." for "good morning america," john donvan, abc news, washington. >> and joining me now to talk about what awe children can learn from the newest resident of "sesame street," rachel simmons author of "odd girl out" leadership. rachel, this is something for children to learn from and parents, educators. what are the lessons here. >> when "sesame street" introduces a new character they're also sending a message and say we've got to focus on these issues and so empathy is going to be a big benefit here. kids are going to think about the feelings of others, social skills, i mean, the fact is
8:16 am
autistic kids put out different cues and they receive cues differently so, for example, if somebody doesn't make eye contact with you, that doesn't mean they don't want to be your friend. it just means they're different and then finally, kids are going to learn to respect difference like which kid doesn't need to know the world doesn't revolve around them. that's way lesson every kid needs to learn over and over again. >> a study recent out, most kids, most children value achievement over any kind of concern for others, empathy like you're talking about so this should put a dent in that. >> yeah, i think so. i think our priorities are out of whack and "sesame street" is paying attention to that. when kids are only thinking about their own happiness it will affect them in all domains. any kid learning to be kinder is going to see that across all areas of life. >> as we heard in john's piece, autism is almost five types more common in boys than it is in girls yet "sesame street" show chose to make the child with autism a girl. >> yes, super interesting. i mean i think "sesame street" has been building up their
8:17 am
awhile so we need more girls but at the same time this is a win for parents of girls with autism because they'll raise awareness in the just for this but the girls struggling with it. >> rachel sim mojs, thanks for joining us. let's head outside to michael. >> tory johnson is here with "deals & steals." all personalized just for you or tory. what do we have going on today? >> let's get going. >> let me spin that around. >> yeah, so these are -- i pulled an "m" for "magic mike." super fun either as a key ring or to snap on to a bag. bag charms are really big right now and amazing gift. normally 40 to $45, each one is slashed by at least 6 5% to $16. delicate on this one. >> i like that. studio. all hand etched barware and a
