barry goldwater is really the father of the tea party. not only reagan and they turned the party over to him, and he drove it off a cliff. so if i'm looking for some sort of comparison, maybe '68. >> and very strong race -- >> absolutely. obviously towards african-americans rather than muslims. you had a very unstable world talking peek of the vietnam war. united states is not doing well. so perhaps i could go there. i don't want to make too strong of link. but that's the closest one i can think of . >> the media in general. not just the news media but the media in general, how much are they responsible for the fear that permeates this country at this point? >> they bear a great deal of the responsibility. and that's not meant to bash the media. the media -- commercial media. you've got to have viewers. you've got to sell papers. whatever. and journalism 101 if it bleeds it leads. so you're always promoting stories that have more risk and fear associated with them than anything else. and so now terrorism attack and muslim terrorists. and

next, a 19 64 campaign film of republican barry goldwater targeting new hampshire voters. it shows the senator on the campaign trail and excerpts -- on communism, foreign aid, and social security. he finished second behind henry cabot lodge junior. senator goldwater went on to win the party nomination but lost the general election to incumbent lyndon johnson. 52-486 in electoral votes. this film is under 15 minutes. ♪ >> the election campaign is in full swing in new hampshire. he goes to the polls on march 10 to cast its vote. there are parades and rallies on the granite state and lots of excitement as the candidates carry their campaigns to the people.

. >> barry goldwater, jet-propelled philosopher of conservatism, he is the hottest thing on the lecturee help books, articles and columns. >> suddenly, goldwater was talked about as the republican john f. kennedy. >> we have lost election after election the last several years because conservative republicans get mad and stay home. let's grow up, conservatives. let's -- if we want to take this party back, and i think we can some day, let's get to work! >> and for the next four years, the conservatives went to work. ...reimagined. style... ...reinvented. sophistication... ...redefined. introducing the all-new lexus rx and rx hybrid. agile handling. available 12.3-inch navigation screen and panorama glass roof. never has luxury been this expressive. this is the pursuit of perfection. you've finally earned enough on your airline credit card. now you just book a seat, right? not quite. sometimes those seats are out of reach, costing an outrageous number of miles. it's time to switch... to the capital one venture card. with venture, you'll earn unlimited double miles on every purchase, every

after that, barry goldwater's 1964 campaign film. and later a 1980 interview with candidate ronald reagan. each week until the 2016 election, road to the white house rewind brings you archives of the presidential races. remarks from bill clinton on the night of the new hampshire primary. he called himself the comeback kid. in the weeks leading up to the vote, the arkansas governor faces allegations of an extra marital affair and draft dodging during the vietnam war. he went on to win his party's nomination and defeated president george h.w. bush and ross perot in the general election. >> the governor of arkansas is coming to the podium. >> reporter: tom and kathy, i can tell you that bill clinton has just entered to greet his supporters, he's shaking hands, what he had to do in this election was put aside character doubts, doubts that were put to the public in publgt indications like this, he's done just that, perhaps those particular issues were not that significant to voters in new hampshire. you can see the governor, the back of h

he was a member, a leader in core at that same time secretary clinton was supporting barry goldwaterposed civil rights. let's talk about the record of him standing up for -- >> 18 years old. >> well, we want to talk about record, they were around the same age, mayor. let's talk about records. senator sanders isn't knew to this. in 19 88, he had the courage to stand with and stand up for jesse jackson. very few white elected officials would do that at that time. let's talk about record. he stood up against the dog whistle and welfare reformed that happened under bill clinton. he was not the one calling black children super predators. if we want to talk about a record, let's talk about it. senator sanders isn't new to this, and i resent clinton supporters asking as if senator sanders doesn't have a bold civil rights record that takes him to being a senator. we don't have to disparage his record to lift the secretary, but if we want to talk about records, let's do that. >> mayor, i need to let you respond. i think that's the first time i've heard barry goldwater come up in an election.

of donations to barry goldwater to create a direct-mail empire aimed at conservatives. the targeting method which he used identified and appealed to a segment of the population that the mainstream media and politics -- politicians have largely ignored. this targeting, which was soon supercharged or put on steroids as i like to think by the digital revolution allowed candidates to reach smaller segments of the population. by the 1980's cable-television fueled the rise of the 24-hour news cycle. more importantly, for our topic, the proliferation of cable news stations and ultimately websites and blogs allowed out with to be successful, even if they only reached a very small portion of the electorate. if you are one of three broadcast television stations and you are reaching less than 30%, you're out of business. to hold thatve middle when there are only three. when you have hundreds about with, you can be really quite successful with 3% or 4%, etc.. just as the humble postal letter -- properly targeted could raise millions of dollars and activate almost as many people. ta

candidate has secured the g-o-p nomination without winning in either iowa or new hampshire since barry goldwater in 1964. republican candidates canvassed the state all day long... with many voters saying they were still undecided. donald trump started the day as the frontrunner. but ohio governor john kasich got an early boost... winning in dixville notch... the first precinct to cast ballots at midnight. but the race is expected to be close. "this is going to be incredibly close everybody, nobody not me, not jeb bush, not john kasich, not marco rubio, not whats going to happen tonight." and it was the same on the democratic side today... with bernie clinton campaigning all day long... trying to secure every last vote. "we're going to keep working literally until the last vote is cast." we will continue to update you on results from both parties' presidential primaries on the air and online throughout the night. and the nevada caucuses are less than two weeks away. democrats can register at the door for the february 20th caucuses. but republicans will have to register early for the february 23rd

but the other is barry goldwater. and it seems to me in terms of charisma and appeal and crossover appeal, he is much closer to barry goldwater than he is to ronald reagan. and the dislikability in the senate may mean something, may not mean something. but he is pretty far to the right and he won the evangelical vote in iowa. that was the basis of his victory. that's not the vote that wins elections in places like ohio, florida, michigan, virginia, once you get to the general election. it's a good base to start from, but if he can't get beyond that base, you don't go anywhere. >> well, that's your opinion. and i understand it, i respect it. but look, history shows us that the establishment candidates do not win. so what have we got to lose by trying somebody who really stands up for the conservative values that our party is supposed to stand for. >> two bushes won with the establishment background. they were the last two major republican candidates. >> and when they did, the debt went up to 19 trillion. >> you may not

the election in november over barry goldwater who is running as the presidential candidate against him. when president johnson decided 1965nd troops in early between january and july when he was making up his mind whether -- whether to send ground troops, he debated inside and talk to several leaders as to to call off the reserves. he chose not to do that because he was afraid it would disrupt the great society domestic legislation. other things he thought his opponents would use the war as a way to slow down or stop much of his the mastic legislation. the war to go into pretending the gulf of tonkin revolution was the equivalent to the declaration of war. as we got deeper into the war, they had been cheated out of the opportunity to debate the issue to declare war. senator fulbright thought he had been betrayed. him in johnson misused the gulf of tonkin resolution and chose to convene public s to investigate the war. he called it educational hearings. the administration really wanted the secretary of defense and secretary of state to testify in closed-door sessions. senator fulbright

menblishment who were young like i was in young women when i got into the conservative movement with barry goldwater. and we got beat badly. many came to washington with richard nixon. i served in his white house for six years. lamar alexander was there for two years. i believe i have maintained in the years the conservative philosophy and convictions and beliefs. many of these folks have grown accustomed to washington. they become part of the establishment we once came to do battle with. they began to express that they are part of the culture now. all the big money and they are now lobbyist making half $1 million a year to represent foreign governments. they no longer have the prior energy and use we had only came. i don't dislike this fellas. they were friends of mine and i would say they are friends of mine now. that they are out of touch. all i am saying is we talked about the pitchforks. [laughter] i am holding out this possibility. if i win the nomination, i will sit down and talk with them. i will keep the door been to my campaign to anyone who does not slam the door to us. our objective is n

he saw it as something to help his election in november over barry goldwater. johnson decided to send vietnam in early 1965 between january and july, he debated inside his administration and took the several leaders of congress as to whether or not he should ask for a formal declaration or state of emergency. who chose not to do that because he was afraid it would disrupt his great society domestic legislation. he thought his opponents would use the war as a way to slow down or defund dmomestic legislation. he chose to go in pretending he thought it was a declaration of war. 65- 196 5 and 1956 and 1966, congress felt a loss. fulbright felt betrayed. he felt johnson had misused him and he chose to convene public hearings of the senate foreign relations committee to investigate the war. it was controversial just to have them public. themdministration wanted to only testify in closed-door sessions. senator fulbright got the rest of the committee to agree to a public hearing. the secretary of state does testify in public, the secretary of defense does not. opponent

>> barry goldwater and jay garn, two of the most conservative republicans who had medical issues. he laughed at the irony that he had gotten everybody except those two. i think scalia is the last of the visible, articulate clearly conservative justices ever to get through the senate. >> you know, at one point he indicated he is not conservative because he followed the judicial view and philosophy of originalism. tell us about that. because he said the information -- the constitution is a living constitution. no, no, he went back to the founding father's intent and shaped all of his opinions and dissents based on that. >> i should say to get through with no dissenting votes. others obviously did get through. i think the political commentary yacht looks at him and calls him a conservatism. it's not. it is a way of look at the constitution and say those who wrote a clause and those who ratified it had something in mind when they agreed to put it in the constitution. it's that understanding that has to govern how the justices and how the lower courts decide. there can be disagreements

he worked alongside barry goldwater in the late 1950's. early in his career, he had been a staunch advocate of unions in the 30's and 40's when the union vote was important. 60'sitches in the 50's and and by the 70's was a diehard supporter of business over labor. he had an important role in conservative evangelical politics. he joins the board of jones .niversity in 1950 to win votes bob jones had just moved, and thurmond needed votes in south carolina. he lost a large number of votes in the country, beginning a long -country,- in the up beginning a long process for the evangelical folks getting involved in the political process. we need to understand, strom thurmond's racial politics in the midst of these other conservative causes, other conservative issues, he was very involved in, and to see how they intersect with each other, and in doing so, it gives us an idea of what strom thurmond's america looks like and what was going on in the south. conservative history too often strom thurmond is left out of, because he is a cartoonish figure

happening now, by the republican convention, the establishment realizes they have been taken over by barry goldwater conservatives. but he lost big time, that remained a remarkable story of the old vista been taken over literally from the ground up from precinct caucuses to. so go back to the question and to conventions matter anymore? mostly we think they don't because the nomination is decided in the primary is in delicate have historically whop to the convention and then found by the people in their state. they don't change very much. we've had three contested convention in the post-reform area. the 1976 republican, the 1980 democrats and the need to 72 democrat. in each of those, the person who won in the primaries won the nomination because the delegate stopped. however, this does not mean that conventions are completely gone because it all depends what happens in the primaries. it's entirely possible that someone, particularly in a field, it's entirely possible that nobody walks into their convention with a majority of delegate. it is entirely possible that it is split, better. if there is no

by the republican convention the republican establishment realized they had been taken over by barry goldwater conservatives and while he lost big time, that remains a remarkable story of the old system being taken over literally from the ground up. and go back to the question of do conventions matter, mostly we think they don't because that nomination is decided in the primaries and delegates have historically walked into these conventions and been bound by the people in their states. they don't change very much, we had three contested conventions in the post reform era, the 1976 republicans, the 1980 democrats and the 1972 democrats and in each of those the person who won in the primaries won denomination because their delegates stuck with them. however it does not mean brokered conventions are completely gone. it all depends on what happens in the primaries. is entirely possible that somebody, particularly in a big feel like we had this time, entirely possible that nobody walks into their convention with the majority of delegates. entirely possible that it is split. if there is no perspecti

you can only be born in one place -- neil: so when barry goldwater was born in a state that hadn't become a state, technically he wasn't a citizen, right? >> that has never been resolved by the courts. it's an interesting side passage. but the fact that these things happened in the past, that george romney was born in mexico or that barry goldwater was born in the territory of arizona, no court ever had to decide that. i mean, these apparent precedents from the past are not actually precedents, they're just historical events -- neil: do you have a candidate in the race? >> do i personally? no. this is a voter-based lawsuit. voters need to go to the polls knowing who the eligible candidates are. neil: because at first blush i would think you must be a trump guy. >> nope. in fact, i have a separate lawsuit pending against him. you probably knew that. neil: so my second thought would be maybe he's a rubio guy. >> this is -- i'm representing clients in this case. my personal preferences, whatever they might be, don't govern the legal job that i have which is to represent my clients. my client

that cruz can do that, he is a strong candidate and very extreme, may do to the republicans what barry goldwater did to them back years ago, give them a devastating loss as a liberal democrat, that would please me. but as a loyal american i want to see two very strong candidates run on each party. i want to see at the end of the day that i would be satisfied that either of them won even though i prefer one candidate over the other. it just doesn't look like it's moving in that direction. >> what do you expect from the debate tomorrow night? >> you know, we never know, it's the most unpredictable element in trump. he violeated -- i mean, the kennedy school, everything has been proved wrong. so who knows what one could predict about any element of this campaign. it is utterly unpredictable. >> i know, people get so passionate, i am sure you saw my last two guests, nobody is listening to what everybody is saying. all right, let's move on to the supreme court, the vacancy left by antonin scalia. a huge issue right now. what did you want to say? >> well, i think the president is handling it absolutel

. >> in 1964 i heard that the republicans nominated barry goldwater who was far to the right of most that party in 1972 the democrats nominated george mcgovern, but he was to the left of his party's main stream. both of those parties made activists excited and they got destroyed in the general election. even democrats who love you worry about your fate in a general election and i know you have good head-to-head polling numbers against republican front-runners right now. we know that, but do you have a general election strategy that is different than the way you're running right now to get the nomination? >> general election is different than a primary and caucus process. but let me say in terms of where we are right now as you mentioned in a number of national and state, including new hampshire, for example the last poll i saw -- there may have been a new one, the last one i saw here in new hampshire had me defeating trump by 19, the secretary defeating him by one. there were large margins in iowa and wisconsin. here's where i think i will be if nominated the candidate. democrats win

we cannot be this extremist barry goldwater. many democrats said, see, we have broad-based support for our efforts. it is kind of like roosevelt thinking, i can be president again because i am gathering crowds of 10,000 people everywhere i go. but things change very, very quickly. the third election that i write about in the book it is , understood as another example of this liberal moment, so much of what we remember and what is written about in 1968 is about the anti-war liberals who upended the democratic party, gene mccarthy, whose rise to political prominence was driven forward by all of these young activists, many on college campuses, who got deeply engaged in politics because of the vietnam war, because of the vietnam draft, but also, and more well-known political figures like robert kennedy. 1968 is also the year when richard nixon returns to the political stage. i did get permission from george willis, the designer of this wonderful cover, to appear in the book. it is one of my favorite images. richard nixon, the democr

the other is barry goldwater. it seems he was much closer to him. it may not mean something but he is pretty far that to the right. and he won the evangelical vote in iowa. that was the basis of his victory. that's not the vote that wins elections in places like ohio, florida, michigan, virginia. once you get tonight general election. a good base to start from. if you can't get beyond that base, you don't go anywhere. >> that's your opinion. and i understand it. i respect it. but look, history shows us that the establishment candidates do not win. so what do we have to lose by trying someone who really stands up for the conservative values? >> two bush who's won with the back ground. >> and when they did, the debt went up. the. >> yes, but they won. >> but the point is winning is not winning just an election. winning is what we believe in and changing the country. this is not about any particular candidate. it is not about senator cruz or any oop candidate in the race. it is about a cause. saving america, changing our culture, turning this culture a

you look in past years the last time the establishment lost the republican nomination was when barry goldwater took it. it's been a while. this year sun likely nert year and the trump campaign has been so disruptive that that could be the year that that happens again. if you drill down it's really not about the policy issues themselves. trump's policies, he does have them, he has advisors, he's doing all sorts of things behind the scenes. >> build a wall. >> bomb the oil and take the oil. which one? you can't bomb it and take it. it doesn't really have to make sense. when you get the candidates who are really good on policy, jeb bush and marco rubio it just doesn't work. hillary clinton faces a similar problem. she's a great record, secretary of state, knows everything there is no know about foreign policy. bernie sanders doesn't want to talk about foreign policy and nobody seems to mind. in this disruptive, very weird, very unique election year the policy wonks are just not selling it and that leaves another opening for the disruptive anger driven candidates. >> donald trump, understands peop

they did this with barry goldwater.ohn anderson went out after losing to reagan and ran against him as the third party candidate. they always do this. they act like spoiled brats. and i think if that's their point of view, say hasta la vista. >> did you just describe everything donald trump has done and threatened to the republican party? he's threatened to leave party and run as an independent if he isn't treated nicely or fairly. he's the one that's complaining and saying he's going to take his voters and go somewhere else. donald trump is the one who acted like a spoiled brat throughout this whole thing any time anyone challenges his record. words he says out of his own mouth, he disputes them, and he's the one that acts like that. this is like the world turned upside down here. can we look at what's really going on here? >> this latest business -- >> all right, hold on, hold on. >> what is going on with donald trump? he is -- >> go ahead, jeffrey. >> he is bringing new people into the republican party just as ronald

a barry goldwater, a a perot or pat buchanan? >> i think he is suing generous.t from them. i came into politics, i was editorial writer. i was admire supporter of beary goldwater. i supported ronald reagan against gerald ford in 1976. i ran my own in 1992 or '94 -- excuse me '96. i did endorse dole in 96. i left the republican party in the year 2000. i saw the republican party on its border policy, on its trade policy, on its war policy, bush republicanism was not buchanon republicanism. i think bush republicanism and the consequences of it, eric, in lost factories, lost jobs, wars that we can't edged and can't win, bush republicanism is what created donald trump. >> so, the far right saying we need alternative to the insiders of the bush republicanism as you point out. mitt romney levied some accusations against donald trump suggesting there may be something in his tax reports that would be embarrassing to him or surgery he is trying to hide. you were supportive of mitt romney in 2012 and you are a a supporter of donald trump now. what's going on here with this

nancy's parents were friends with barry goldwater. they would all vacation in arizona. reagan got no goldwater through his father-in-law, and then paying family friends. but i think in the end it happened by that point. first of all nancy herself didn't really have, she wasn't particularly political when she met reagan. she ended up adopting and following his politics to the extent she had her own view of things, but loyal davis was her father. he sometimes is portrayed as anti-semite and a bigot and a sort of ultraconservative. one of the things that's plausible, the evidence isn't really there. in all this correspondence can you don't find correspondence between them. the timing doesn't quite add up. i think part of what is interesting and surprising about reagans moved to the right is the extent to which he did do it on his own. it was a product of his reading, is thinking, his writing things all this time. reagan wasn't an intellectual but he was a reader and writer and originalist certain way and he had to come to ideas even if their ideas held by a lot of other peo

have donald i will leave you today with the words of a great hero in american politics, barry goldwater. we trustill come when the conduct of our affairs to men and women who understand that their first duty as public officials is to divest themselves of the power they have been given. ,hen a politician takes office put your hands on the bible and pledged to give the power back to the people. this is why we support donald trump. all right. i have the honor of introducing sheriff joe. [cheering] he is known across sheriffas the toughest serving. county,s maricopa phoenix, arizona, since 1993. he is the toughest against illegal immigration. it is my honor to introduce to you -- give him a giant standing ovation -- sheriff joe. sheriff joe: thank you. i only have five minutes and it is difficult for me. thank you. i love nevada. cop in las vegas in 1957. i was very young when i joined. then, i became a federal narcotics agent after that assignment in las vegas and that propelled me into my future fighting drug trafficking. city,in turkey, mexico and i know where the mexican-u.s. border is.

the university of chicago, at the same time in the same city, hillary clinton was working for barry goldwater who was campaigning against civil rights act. this is someone who is extremely courageous. both standing up for racial equality in cicero, one of the most violent places in the country, a place that martin luther king feared, that he would die there. bernie was on the front line then, like just in 1984 with jesse jackson. >> ben jealous, good catching up with you. appreciate it. >> appreciate you. thank you very. . >>> all right. let me jump over to rachel maddow, a preview of her exclusive interview with vice president biden and later, brand-new feud between donald trump and pope francis. just when you think you've seen it all in the race. trump set to speak live in a few minutes. we'll keep an eye on it. stay tuned. "mtp daily" live from las vegas. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis... isn't it time to let the real you shine through? introducing otezla, apremilast. otezla is not an injection, or a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. some people

. >> in 1964 i heard that the republicans nominated barry goldwater who was far to the right of most that party in 1972 the democrats nominated george mcgovern, but he was to the left of his party's main stream. both of those parties made activists excited and they got destroyed in the general election. even democrats who love you worry about your fate in a general election and i know you have good head-to-head polling numbers against republican front-runners right now. we know that, but do you have a general election strategy that is different than the way you're running right now to get the nomination? >> general election is different than a primary and caucus process. but let me say in terms of where we are right now as you mentioned in a number of national and state, including new hampshire, for example the last poll i saw -- there may have been a new one, the last one i saw here in new hampshire had me defeating trump by 19, the secretary defeating him by one. there were large margins in iowa and wisconsin. here's where i think i will be if nominated the candidate. democrats win

so you start with the same chronology, she starts off with barry goldwater. fine.bout her parents. you move on. and then she's a lawyer for the black panther party. then teams up with children's defense fund. all of a sudden pushing the super predator theory. a theory that said a child as early as age 6 months could be a sociopath beyond redemption and was never used to explain the actions of the white young men who shot up columbine but always used against urban black men caught up in drug wars and street crime and used that to push for mass incarceration. a lot of people in the '90s had bad judgment. in 2008, seven democrats on stage, six of them say, of course, if we get rid of the crack powder disparity, we'll make it retroactive so all those mothers who are in prison. you saw tons of women rolled up in that. hillary clinton is the only one who said no. no, we won't do it retroactively just like this year. after six democratic governors helped abolish the death penalty, she is the only one who supports the death penalty. and that's on these racial justice issue

cruz's situation is different than mccains or george romney or even barry goldwater who was, after allzona but when it was a territory. >> or president obama. that is a joke. >> he was born in hawaii but it was a state. so there's some small question about this. there have been lawsuits in alabama some voters filed a lawsuit against ted cruz and a legal analyst pointed out the person who would have standing would be another candidate. someone who would lose out if ted cruz were the nominee. average voters don't have standing. i don't know. trump is -- i think trump is doing well beating kruds without this. he doesn't need to resort to it but he se unpredictable. >> i want to move on. should ted cruz be worried about this? >> i think so. if trump puts resources behind him and sues him it would be a huge story. >> wouldn't cost hardly any money. >> he's not going to. he's not going to. donald trump is a man of his word. he may have changed his viewpoint on some issues be that doesn't mean he is not a man of his word. >> you got it kayleigh. >> there is a chance he might. >> i want bob to

. >> rose: and a barry goldwater voter before that. >> but that was when she was a teenager in church. then she went to college, we had vietnam, you remember this stuff, charlie. i said to her, how would you convince that young woman to vote for you now? >> rose: what did she say? i would say to her, keep your ideals -- >> rose: as the argument of her husband was, her argument is you can't go to the bank on promises. you need someone to execute. >> this is jeb bush's argument and the republican primary saying you have all these candidates who want to be the viles for your discontent, they have no policy agenda and no record. i'm the guy with the record. the problem is when you talk to primary voters and they watch the tens of millions of dollars of jeb bush or super pac ads they say it look like he's running for governor, a referendum of yesterday. the question for hillary is, you may think she's saying right things at the town hall but are people just tuning her out? are people saying she's been around for 25 years -- >> rose: these are questions we have to ask ourselve ourselv. than

other one called gold water for barry goldwater. >> reporter: then cruise on to inauguration day andoath of office. we may not know who the forty-fifth president of the united states will be just yet but one thing is for sure, he or she will be sitting right here at the desk inside the oval office. now this space, and the exhibit, but head in the white house runs through election day. jan carabao for cbs-3 "eyewitness news". >> jan for president. >> she feels very comfortable behind that desky will vote for her, cool. >>> we have more on the web site at cbs philly.com if you are looking for more information. >>> that is "eyewitness news" at 5:00. >>> now at 6:00 tricky travel, the winter storm is creating some messy driving conditions, so the mobile weather lab out and about on 202 north in chester county and the storm isn't just done yet, kate? >> it certainly is not, guys. we are seeing that transition from snow, to sleet, and freezing rain, and eventually all rain, but how long will it take before the plane rain gets in? i will have your full timing and your full seven day forecas

>> in 1964 i heard that the republicans nominated barry goldwater who was a hero of the conservativeent. he was, however, far to the right of most of that party. in 1972 the democrats nominated george mcgovern who was a hero of liberals in the anti-war movement but he was to the left of his party's mainstream. both of those nominees made activists very excited and they both got destroyed in the general election. >> right. >> even democrats who love you worry about your fate in a general election, and i know you have today head-to-head polling numbers against republican front-runners right now, but do you have a general election strategy that is different than the way you're running right now to try to get the nomination? >> well, you know, general election is different than a primary and caucus process, but let me just say this, in terms of where we are right now, as you have mentioned, rachel, in a number of national and state, including new hampshire -- for example, the last poll i saw, there may have been a new one, last one i saw here in new hampshire, a battleground state, had m
