christie is saying, what can i do?ll, some of the cuomo aggressiveness is out of the fear of the challenge that astorino represents. cuomo has bad facts to run on. he has economy growing more slowly than the obama economy nationwide. and he has above-average unemployment rate, and he shutdown a corruption commission investigating albany, because the friends in albany did not want the commission investigating. there is a very big opportunity here once people get to know astorino and he is a guy who knows how to communicate, and he can seize the opportunity. so, again, it is way too early to decide, we are not putting money there. >> and you are thinking that he is basically missing an opportunity for his own political self-interest? am i putting that too harshly, i mean with christie, i'm talking about. >> yes, he is making a bad decision based on the facts on the ground, and as jason said the memories are still fairly fresh of the embrace that helped obama in the closing weeks against romney. >> this race is going to b

>> good morning, christi and miguel. all efforts on the part of the israeli military focused on trying to ascertain the whereabouts of the 23-year-old second lieutenant. there are, like in so many cases, conflicting accounts depending on who you are listening to. the israeli military says that young man was grabbed or apparently disappeared during the cease-fire. it was apparently 90 minutes in that this particular unit in the southern part of gaza was working at demolishing a tunnel, something israel maintains it had the right to do. it was a suicide bombing first and then that's when they believe the young soldier was grabbed. hamas is denying all of this, saying there was no capture of the soldier, there was no suicide attack. the reason hamas may be denying this, if there was a unit that was trying to grab a soldier was killed in the follow-up artillery barrage and air strike that israel launched. there was a great deal of fighting that broke out around that region, around the time that all of this happened. hence th
