alison lundegran grimes. >> alison lundegran grimes told her supporters the race is not about presidenther in kentucky. >> mitch mcconnell would have you believe that president obama is on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. we all know that senator mcconnell has been in washington a little bit too long. [ cheers and applause ] so out of touch he can't tell the difference between a duke jersey and university of kentucky. let me set the record straight tonight for our senior senator who is out of touch with the commonwealth of kentucky. president obama is not on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. nothing about this election will change who is in the white house but we can change who is in washington, d.c. and finally put someone in the commonwealth of kentucky. [ applause ] senator mcconnell, this race is between you and me. that's the name that appears on the ballot. and as you said -- as you said so many years ago -- it is my number one priority to make sure mitch mcconnell doesn't see another term. >> now, mitch mcconnell, he wants to tell you who i am and he said, he claims that kentucky

alison grimes wanted to make it about kentucky.onnell wanted to make it about hollywood. >> my opponent is in the race because barack obama and harry reid want her to be in the race. there is a reason, my friends, a reason, every hollywood liberal is sending her a check. there isn't a dime's worth of difference, not a dime's worth of difference between a candidate who puts harry reid in charge and harry reid himself. >> let me set the record straight tonight for our senior senator out of touch with kentucky, president obama is not on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. nothing about this election will change who is in the white house, but we can change who is in washington, d.c. >> see about that one. the georgia primary, no candidate on the republican side came near to 50% in that seven candidate primary field. which include three sitting u.s. congressmen. right now looks like, kingston will face david perdue in the run-off. in georgia, michelle nunn, daughter of sam nunn, won. and tom cotton will take on mark prioror. businessman, t

i am so delighted with alison grimes.idate representing the innovative, inclusive agenda to move us forward. we are, as she stated, a united states, not a red or blue state, as the president stated. she is not going to be running as president obama on the ticket . mitch mcconnell represents the old and the past, and it was evident from just the contrast of the speeches. and also here in florida we, too , are going to move to a florida blue leadership. the country has already decided on the president. they have elected him twice. so this notion that we are going to somehow -- the people are somehow living in a fog and are unaware what their issues are, there needs of a life that's a private -- provides health security, social security and retirement security along with a valid future for their children to look and live for is what we have always had in this country. we are a forward country. >> host: thank you very much for the call. sean sullivan of the "washington post" has this tweet on some potential comebacks that are

alison lundergan grimes represents a vivid contrast to him and the most important thing about alison as a candidate is she is tough. she will not be bullied by mitch mcconnell which has been his m.o. for his entire career. it's going to be a very fascinating campaign. i look forward to the debate. she will destroy him because he cannot defend his record. >> kinect, the name for obama care in the name of kentucky which is popular there will be on the ballot in a way. john yarmouth, thank you for joining me tonight. >> thanks. >> the tea party has come a long way in the past five years. >> that big a difference between what you call the tea party and your average conservative republican. >> the definition for tea party candidate has it all wrong next. avo: waves don't care what age you are. take them on the way you always have. live healthy and take one a day men's 50+. a complete multivitamin with 7 antioxidants to support cell health. age? who cares. if you have a business idea, we have a personalized legal solution that's right for you. with easy step-by-step guidance, we're here to

there is a path forward for alison lundegran grimes. unlike say, a state like texas where wendy davis is running. or does not have a primary night. doesn't hatch any state wide elected democrats. a lot of states, kentucky has a quite popular elected statewide democrat in the governor, bashir, and that could prove a road map for how alison lundegran grimes will take the race. >> we have done the not quite back of the envelope. did actual printouts with the computer. not quite back of the envelope. a few maps. bashir victory match in '07. knocked out ernie fletcher and won the governorship. obviously very blue. he won, in a -- you know an across the board victory. >> i do this. take this one. layer over the rand paul map. this was his victory map. in 2010. and here's what was interesting. we came up, there are four, four largest counties that both steve bashir, democrat carried in '07. rand paul the republican carried in 10. are right here. two of them are in the cincinnati suburbs. one here on the border uh indiana, evansville. owensboro

and so alison schwartz is finding out the worst. wolf is the worst nightmare, because he is a business guy, and not connected to washington or connected to president obama too much. might be the ideal candidate democrats could come up with to knock corbett off. >> in the few seconds left, i want to ask you about president obama, and he has had a busy fund-raising event in maryland and two more next month and how much of the president's time is going to be spent raising money versus getting out on the campaign trail with kand can dates? >> i would put it 80/20. 80% raising monies. there are places where they send president obama and places perhaps where they send michelle obama before him, and she is more pop ular than he is, and i would not be surprised if arguably you see her on the campaign trail, and if she is willing to do it more than you would see president obama and the requests for her are more of them for her than him, and there are places that president obama thinks that he can help to increase the african-american turnout

and in that moment alison knew.e he was a boy, her son had always carried a red handkerchief. her son welles was the man in the red bandana. welles was just 24 years old, with a broad smile and a bright future. he worked in the south tower, on the 104th floor. he had a big laugh, a joy of life, and dreams of seeing the world. he worked in finance, but he had also been a volunteer firefighter. and after the planes hit, he put on that bandana and spent his final moments saving others. three years ago this month, after our seals made sure that justice was done, i came to ground zero, and among the families here that day was alison crowther. and she told me about welles and his fearless spirit, and she showed me a handkerchief like the one he wore that morning. and today, as we saw on our tour, one of his red handkerchiefs is on display in this museum. and from this day forward, all hose who come here will have a chance to know the sacrifice of a young man who, like so many, gave his life so others might live. those we

there is a path forward for alison lundegran grimes. unlike say, a state like texas where wendy davis is running. or does not have a primary night. doesn't hatch any state wide elected democrats. a lot of states, kentucky has a quite popular elected statewide democrat in the governor, bashir, and that could prove a road map for how alison lundegran grimes will take the race. >> we have done the not quite back of the envelope. did actual printouts with the computer. not quite back of the envelope. a few maps. bashir victory match in '07. knocked out ernie fletcher and won the governorship. obviously very blue. he won, in a -- you know an across the board victory. >> i do this. take this one. layer over the rand paul map. this was his victory map. in 2010. and here's what was interesting. we came up, there are four, four largest counties that both steve bashir, democrat carried in '07. rand paul the republican carried in 10. are right here. two of them are in the cincinnati suburbs. one here on the border uh indiana, evansville. owens bur

in kentucky, it's alison lundergran grimes and in arkansas, mark pryor.ning me, two people who have been in the firing line. i was just talking to you guys off camera. you both have been through competitive primaries and competitive generals, highs and lows so i think you have the thick skin to prove it. >> yes. >> primaries as a challenger when you won your primary in the house gave you a ton of momentum. as an incumbent when you won your primary, it was tough on the general. so talk about that as far as mitch mcconnell's thinking this morning. is he more vulnerable or less? >> i think in the house and senate i had a four-way primary and then a runoff. when you had multiple election, it's all about obviously raising money and everything that's being thrown at you. i think that really does create some challenges for you. i mean, you got to be able to beat the other guy in your own house, your own party. and i think mitch has had a tough time at it. they're going to obviously have to throw some money in there. but he still is, you know, he's an incumbent,

i'm gonna meet alison, jim's 50/50 partner. want to find out how this store is doing. >> the big pine key store. >> big pine. hello. >> hey, how you doing? >> how are you? i'm marcus. >> david. >> nice to meet you. >> nice to meet you. >> i'm alison. >> nice to meet you. >> it's an honor to meet you. >> nice to meet you. so what makes this location different from the one that i was at earlier on greene street? >> this store is a small percentage of our business, but we also do all of our shipping here. >> how much business will this store do, this location right here, a year? >> retail sales as opposed to the whole company? 10, 12%. >> okay. so what will i find in here? i mean, pretty much the same kind of stuff we saw at the other place? >> this has pretty much the same stuff. >> so you--how many pies do you make a year? >> 40,000. >> do you make pies in this-- >> we do not make pies in this location. we only make pies in our greene street location. and this is our shipping area where david packs up our packages to ship. these

mitch mcconnell has a serious contender as he faces off against alison lundergan grimes. for him and for republicans in the senate? >> well, you know, let's look at it at two different ways through two different windows. one is the general election, alison lundergan grimes is going to be getting a lot of outside money. we have already seen a lot of outside money flow into this campaign on her behalf. we've seen the same thing for mitch mcconnell. you're also going to see the bill clinton factor. will we see bill clinton spending a lot of time down in kentucky, trying to help get her elected. in some ways this could be a proxy fight for 2016. how effective will bill clinton be for alison lundergan grimes and other democrats in this race? at the same time, look at rand paul. i've got to tell you, two weeks ago i was with rand paul in memphis. he was addressing the republican national committee, establishment republicans. he delivered a message of unity, but he delivered a message to them. he spent a lot of time after his speech shaking hands and what have you. four days ear

it's hard to knock down alison grimes. job is mostly done for him. >> all right. thank you for your insight this morning. i really appreciate it. >>> still to come in the "newsroom," another day and another recall for general motors. this time two chevrolets made overseas. >> reporter: the recall tally is growing for general motors and growing quickly. one of the world's biggest automakers reporting another safety issue. what you need to know coming up. how much protein does your dog food have? 18 percent? 20? purina one true instinct has 30. active dogs crave nutrient-dense food. so we made purina one true instinct. learn more at purinaone.com so when my moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis them. was also on display, i'd had it. i finally had a serious talk with my dermatologist. this time, he prescribed humira-adalimumab. humira helps to clear the surface of my skin by actually working inside my body. in clinical trials, most adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis saw 75% skin clearance. and the majority

let's start with you, robert, and how will alison grimes combat that, and the strategy is to hold herwith harry reid and obama. >> well, the mcconnell strategy to try to make it a referendum about president obama and harry reid, but one person who is a lack of approval and the low approval rating is comparable to president obama is mitch mcconnell, and so for alison grimes to make the case of keeping the focus on mitch mcconnell and make it a referendum on the strategy is going to play well, primarily because the voters in kentucky can impact who the senator is and what they can't do is to change the white house, and one fact that is worth noting and not getting a lot of media attention is that in the primary turnout, there were 50,000 more votes coming out for the uncontested democratic primary than the mcconnell and bevin primary, and so there was more enthusiasm amongst democrats than republicans. >> and now, let's bring you in, chris. we were able to sneak up on the people in the past, and there is no sneaking up on the people anymore and if there is an incoumbent in a benign envi

it's going to be an uphill battle for alison grimes.t that she's still in it, it looks like he will dispatch with matt bevin who was going to be the tea party challenger who would give him a lot of headaches and it hasn't been much more than a toothache. >> or just the need to floss. >> right. this race reminds me a lot of harry reid's race in 2010 and regarded him of going washington and being out of touch with him. reid doesn't pull any punches and so i don't think we're going to know the shape of this race until mcconnell starts to engage grimes more carefully until after he's done with the challenge on the right. >> i heard an amazing static. it's something along the lines of mitch mcconnell, who has won all of these elections, of the six that he's run against, only one has ever run for office against statewide in kentucky because he is so tough. he destroys them. >> if you look at some of the ads in the race, it's got some of the most, you know, vicious, frankly, hilarious ads that are out there this cycle and it's a reminder for w

alison lundergan grimes comes from a storied political kentucky family. she's also secretary of state, so she's not an outsider, she's not a usurper para chuting into kentucky. >> who's he talking to? older republicans willing to believe, joy, that this woman can't possibly be on her own two feet, just like anita hill, got to have people behind her, men behind her, that have moved her into this slot as a puppet. that's what they have to believe, like they talk about abortion rights, the same way, if she can't make a decision, she's not old enough, she's not smart enough. she's a woman. your thoughts. >> and she's a self made kentucky politician. this is somebody, as you said, who's gotten herself elected to statewide office. if she's tied to any president, it is bill clinton. that is the person who was really more for her, if you want to say, than he would have been for, you know, the celebrity for ashley judd. >> is he going to double down, is bill clinton going to double down on this race? >> of course. they can have him come in and campaign, but she do

today breaking from the ap she was asked twice, alison lundegran grimes, asked twice whether she wouldave voted for the 2010 law. obviously a major issue. she wouldn't really answer. she says, look, i well, when we are in the u.s. senate, will work to fix the aca. >> look, this is in keeping with something she has been doing from the beginning. some one pointed out to me -- a reporter, if you ever noticed. she has never. can't find any tape of her, talking about how she supports barack obama. i support the democratic nominee. she is not going to -- to -- have herself be wedded to, attached to, in any way, to, to the president, to obamacare, to, any of the horrors of the affordable care act. she is going to have to, get a cleaner answer to, to the question. but it is clear, kentucky, has this weird place in that it, obama care is unpopular. in terms of obama care. the way it is working in kentucky is extremely successful. >> certainly, politically why can't she just say, i wouldn't have voted for it as written. why doesn't she have an answer. you look weak when you are doubling up there

i want to play the clip from alison lundergan grimes in part because it seems like she knows, in somedouble-digit lead over mitch mcconnell against women voters. she seems to be trying to press her advantage there. do we know how that will play out in terms of the positions, the way they campaign and how much mcconnell may try to turn that around. his deficit with women voters could be fatal. >> that's right. women make up 53% of the electorate here. i thought it was interesting what you heard from the two speeches tonight. you can play the clips on a loop the next five months and throw in 75 million dollars or so and get the same result. i think what you heard from alison lundergan grimes over and over again is the same thing you heard since she got in the race, i'm a strong kentucky woman. what you heard from mitch mcconnell say, i know a lot of strong kentucky women, he talked about his wife and mother. three examples of people adversary affected by obamacare. all of them women. he recognizes it as a weakness and something he is trying to shore up. alison lundergan grimes recognize

he was referring to pryor, landrieu, but also nunn. >> alison grimes. >> alison grimes. it is interesting. in the red states, the local political brand democrats hope is going to trump the national -- >> just imagine if you didn't have retirements in west virginia and iowa, we wouldn't be talking about those races too. >> and montana too. >> montana, thank you. just imagine had landrieu and bagich decided to retire -- >> then they'd be at four. they'd only need two. >> and so that's the question. how do you -- we talk about this every midterm election. how can you localize a race when the national wins are blowing so against you. and one way to do it is, okay, you know me, you know my family, you know i'm not part of this national crowd back here, but it's still hard to do when you have -- it's almost like day after day after day something else battling. >> kay hagan, freshman senator, in a little better state than many of these people. >> oregon, do you buy that it's a competitive state in the fall between health care exchange? does monica webbe have too much of this pe

he faces a tough fight against alison lunder gan grimes. mcconnell said he will make it a central part of his campaign. >> my opponent is in this race because barack obama and harry reid want her in this race. there's a reason, friends. a reason. every hollywood liberal is sending her a check. >> together, we will take this fight to mitch mcconnell and hold him accountable for his 30 years of failed leadership. >> in idaho, cnn projects republican congressman mike simpson won his primary, one of many establish candidates to turn aside tea party backed candidates there. the chair faced a tough battle against brian smith. it was a test between conservative groups. as for the governor's race there, he's on track to beat russ who ran as a more conservative candidate. >> the election in oregon is merkley against monica wehby. she talked the more conservative candidate in the race. >>> two establish candidates holding off the conservative backed secretary of state in that state. cnn projects david purdue and kingston were the top two in the race

. >> now, alison, your organization, the international press institute is calling for reforms in egypt to occur after the election. >> absolutely. >> how confident are you that the reforms will happen? >> well, we are kind of confident. we met with a number of egyptian

i don't think you will hear him accuse alison lundegran grimes, the focal point of his strategy, twokentucky, another chance against barack obama. and two, he has got the seniority, on the cusp of becoming senate majority leader. i think they believe that the best way to sort of, smoke out alison lundegran grimes for being an inexperienced candidate who may not have a firm grasp of the issues on the debate stage. i think they recognize that there is a risk in using advertising to, to try to define her harshly that there may be some blow back especially among women voters. i think the debate stage is a safe place to do that. they may want to ask if they -- >> exactly. >> yeah, i mean, rick lazio took in your face too seriously for people who remember that. sam, you mention women voters. she is a ware of this punch coming in. she had a counter punch ready in the speech last night about being cast cast as a woman on the back bench. take a listen. >> now, mitch mcconnell he wants to tell you who i am. he has said he claims that kentucky will be lost if we trade in his feet for a kentucky

so he's just attacking alison. alison is pretty doggone smart. she has to say is i'm not from washington, d.c., and he is washington, d.c. frankly, with congress less popular than cockroaches, you want to go after washington, d.c. even if you're a member of congress, you want to go after washington, d.c. the country's fed up with what's going on in washington, d.c. and the successful candidates are going to hitch their horse to that wagon. >> look, it's low hanging fruit for all of us. that said, more transparency in these races would be good. i guess it's too much of a dirty word to admit how deep you are in your washington colleagues. it's down to president obama's numbers. listen to alison grimes specifically. >> mitch mcconnell would have you believe that president obama is on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. president obama is not on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. nothing about this election will change who is in the white house, but we can change who is in washington, d.c. and finally put some in with the commonwealth of kentucky. senator

i want to play the clip from alison lundergan grimes in part because it seems like she knows, in somes, a double-digit lead over mitch mcconnell against women voters. she seems to be trying to press her advantage there. do we know how that will play out in terms of the positions, the way they campaign and how much mcconnell may try to turn that around. his deficit with women voters could be fatal. >> that's right. women make up 53% of the electorate here. i thought it was interesting what you heard from the two speeches tonight. you can play the clips on a loop the next five months and throw in 75 million dollars or so and get the same result. i think what you heard from alison lundergan grimes over and over again is the same thing you heard since she got in the race, i'm a strong kentucky woman. what you heard from mitch mcconnell say, i know a lot of strong kentucky women, he talked about his wife and mother. three examples of people adversary affected by obamacare. all of them women. he recognizes it as a weakness and something he is trying to shore up. alison lundergan grimes reco

mcconnell will face the democratic secretary of state, alison lungergan grimes.many prominent democrats. mcconnell and grimes are trading serious bars. >> my opponent is in this race because barack obama and harry reid want her to be in this race. there's a reason, my friends, a reason every hollywood liberal is sending her a check. >> together, we will take this fight to mitch mcconnell and hold him accountable for his 30 years of failed leadership. >> a defeat for the tea party also in idaho. considered by many to be the centerpiece of this year's fight for control of the gop. cnn projects republican congressman mike simpson won his primary there turning aside the tea party backed lawyer, bryan smith. also governor butch otter appeared to be victorious in his fight to run for another term. results show him leading by a significant margin against russ fulcher who campaigned as a more conservative candidate. >>> a run off will determine who will run for saxby chambliss' seat. david purdue and kingston topped the list. the eventual victor will face michelle nunn i

and alison you said you are okay with the gift shop. the truthers who are promulgating the myth of 9/11 that it was an inside job outside of the museum. >> i think it is unfortunate and insensitive of these people. but this is a country that has freedom of speech. so you know, i suppose they have their right to say whatever they feel. they are not well informed. you know, nobody was standing there pushing a button and saying time to collapse the buildings. the buildings were structurally compromised by the attacks and when -- i attended the sky scraper safety hearings for the 9/11 commission and i understand that these buildings were designed to come straight down if anything would happen to prevent larger, greater damage of them toppling over in one piece. so you know, nobody pushed that button and said time to collapse these things, they just came down. you know, people have been saying the world is ending in big newspaper headlines for a long time. so i put in the that category of utter nonsense. and if they, you know -- people just

he'll now face alison lundergan grimes who will also run easily in her primary contest. expensive race. one democrat sees that as an opportunity to knock off an incumbent republican. there are two candidates in the general election, grimes and mcconnell, but last night, a third name was given a lot of attention. >>> my opponents is in this race because barack obama and harry reid want her to be in race. a vote for my opponent is a vote for obamacare. and the president who sold it to us on a mountain of lies. barack obama's candidates preach candidates but they practice loyalty above all else. tonight, i'm confident of this, kentuckians are not going to be deceived. alison lundergan grimes is barack obama's candidate. >> mitch mcconnell would have you believe that president obama is on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. president obama is not on kentucky's 2014 election ballot. nothing about this election will change who is in the white house, but we can change who is in washington, d.c. and finally put someone to the commonwealth of kentucky. senator mcconnell, this race i

alison grimes is trying to define herself to counter that. we'll play both of them for you and talk about it on the other side. >> liberals coast to coast are rolling out the red carpet for alison grimes. she's backed by obama's biggest fundraisers and hollywood's most liberal political activists. >> hi. i'm alison grimes. i want to take a moment to talk to you about why i'm running for senate. this is a frustrating time in our country. the economy is still struggling. people are working harder for less. and here in kentucky, we feel it more than most. it seems no matter how many elections we have, nothing gets better in washington. it only gets worse. >> reporter: she also goes on in this long ad to say that she is her own person. she is not president obama's rubber stamp. that's something she's going to have to say over and over again because that is one of the many major themes of this incredibly important race that mitch mcconnell is making her a puppet as you saw in that not so subtle ad. she's trying to say she's not. she's independent.

alison kosic is joining us now from santa barbara. give us a sense of the scene there today, alison. >> brianna, this is a community, understandably, that is still stunned, still in shock about this massacre that unfolded in a matter of minutes. now, on tuesday, tomorrow, it's been declared a day of mourning. and that means that there's going to be a memorial service. also classes at university of california at santa barbara are going to be closed. also, the university saying that it is going to have, and continues to have grief counselors available on campus for anybody who needs those services. later today, about an hour or so, there's also going to be a march. it's going to start at the sorority house where those two female victims were among the first who were killed. it's going to go ahead and march along the path where each victim was killed. the idea with this march is to place flowers and remembrances at each of these spots and honor each of these victims. brianna. >> and alison, we also heard a gut-wrenching interview with th
