chuck todd, steve schmitz and michael steele, the former chair of the republican national committee. me go to chuck on this. i don't know. you tell me, who won? >> this is marco rubio's debate. pure and simple. he's got the viral moment that i want to have. he was put in the spotlight early. he was going to be on the defensive early. his main rival jeb bush decided to go after him. he swung, he missed and rubio fired back hard. look, if marco rubio end up the republican nominee, we'll say it began with this debate. >> it started because of rubio's great absencee rate as united states senator. he was asked about a newspaper editorial that came out today that challenged his voting record in the senate. jeb bush jumped in on the criticism. let's watch. >> barack obama missed 60% or 70% of his votes and the same newspaper endorsed him again. so this is another example of the double standard that exists in this country between the mainstream media and the conservatives. >> i'm a constituent of the senator and i helped him and i expected that he would do constituent service, which means tha

lester. >> andrea, thanks. >>> let's turn to chuck todd. political director and moderator of "meet the press". joe biden will likely be watching this at home. what will he carefully watch as he tries to make his decision. >> he has to have a rationale for running. it is not whether or not hillary clinton is faltering or bernie sanders is pulling support away. he has to have his own rationale. where does he fit into the conversation. it is not as if bernie sanders or hillary clinton goes away, suddenly the vice president decides to get in. i think he will be watching to see what he would bring to the table that is different that also puts him at a contrast. i think he wants to be the unifying candidate that can make washington work. is that a message that would resonate with democrats tonight. we'll find out. >> and for hillary clinton, this should be the biggest night of the month for her. but it probably won't be. >> reporter: it is not. in many ways. it is my understanding she skipped the walk-through tonight. her campaign is almost as if

chuck todd is live in washington with a preview. good morning, chuck. >> good morning, gus. >> the benghazi hearing is coming up for mrs. clinton. what do you think her tactic is going to be? is it going to be to politicize the whole process? >> well, i think that's exactly what her tactic is going to be. she feels as if she got a lot of help from republican members of congress, including of course the almost speaker of the house kevin mccarthy. you're going to see a debate between two members of the benghazi committee a leading democrat and leading republican on the committee, where they both make their cases or try to make their cases. the republican trying to make his case that the committee is not a partisan witch hunt. the case that they've been -- that they were serious about the committee and that they do still have questions supposedly of hillary clinton. but now are they really more in political campaign defense mode. so look, i think it's inevitable that thursday is viewed through a partisan lens. that said, i can tell you

chuck todd is live in washington with a preview. >> good morning, gus. >> maybe your opponents hoped otherwise, but it didn't seem mrs. clinton faltered at the benn ghazi hearing. looking at the polls, is she on track for the nomination, or does sanders pose a threat at this point? >> well, i think she's definitely -- she's in a better place today than she was 12 days ago. i think she certainly won the politics of the benghazi hearing. i think the substance is still going to be up for debate once there's a general election. here's all you needed to know. if you watched bernie sanders last night in iowa, there was a big party event in iowa. he went after secretary clinton in ways he had yet to do. directly going after her on the iraq war, on gay marriage, and on some other issues like trade where he believes she's been on wrong side of history. and that tells you that he knows that she's suddenly looking more formidable. but one thing you should caution when it comes to hillary clinton, she gets better as a candidate when her back is against the wall, but when she's an absolute front

we'll get to chuck todd in a moment. but first andrea mitchell is there. set the stage for us. >> reporter: good evening, lester. hillary clinton is by far the most experienced debater all of the candidates tonight. so if this is her contest to lose. it is also bernie sanders' chance to show he can broaden his appeal beyond his liberal base. hillary clinton trying to position herself as the nominee. already going after donald trump, joining union protesters outside of his nonunion hotel here. >> we want to send a message to mr. trump, that you if are going to run for president, then you should represent all the people of the united states. >> reporter: tonight she is being challenged by bernie sanders. likely topics, trade, wall street, foreign policy and guns. her recent moves to the left have led to charges of flip flopping. >> people have to contrast my consistency to stand up to big corporation with the secretary. >> but on guns clinton is more consistent. >> we need universal background checks. we know they will work. >> while bernie sanders wants to

. >>> we want to turn to our political director, the moderator of "meet the press," chuck todd. a big night for hillary clinton, but she is a good debater so is team biden sitting back to see how she did or are they waiting to see what happens in frons of the benghazi committee. >> there is no doubt that team biden was watching to see what kind of new openings they could find. but there is an important tell that happened or frankly lester didn't happen today. and which is, i was told if the biden campaign were about to get off the ground. we would start hearing we would see leaks about it. and today would have been the perfect day drip out the idea he was ready to run. because you would be stepping on the victory lap, that hillary clinton has taken today. and guess what, lester. almost radio silence from the west wing ere. you heard what joe biden said about the debaters but other than that, nothing. and now we're hearing that maybe he wants to hear until after the benghazi testimony before saying anything publicly. lester. >> chuck todd, thank you. >>> never at a loss for words

chuck todd, jake tapper are question askers, dana bash. i don't think the people this week were very experienced of asking questions of political people. so nbc will agree to provide no editorial guarantees but agree to provide experienced questions. >> certainly very -- they are experienced journalists, no doubt. i know carl and he is a very experienced journalist. i want you to take a listen to this clip. >> you've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals. you once told a contestant on "celebrity apprentice" it would be nice to see her on her knees. >> other than politicpolitics, you explain why in the last two years you changed your position on a path to citizen ship and are there other past positions we shouldn't hold you to. >> governor christie, you said senator paul's opposition to the collection of phone records made the united states weaker and more vulnerable going so far as to say he should be called before congress to answer to it if we should be hit by another terrorist attack. >> that's the fo

. >> last year you were beaten up on sleepy-eyed chuck todd, and you've done "meet the press" several times. does your opinion of them rise if they like you? >> no, they were fair. i didn't think he was fair to me initially. i was a novice. i've only been doing this for three moptsds, but for almost three months i'm at the top when you think of it. when they compare me to herman cain, michele bachmann, they were there for like one week. >> very, very different. >> it's been a long run. >> let's drill down to government spending. it's a long question. conservative tax foundation said your plan would cost $10 trillion. i know you dispute that. you said you don't want to touch social security, medicare, medicaid. together they're 1.7 trillion. i know you want to go after waste, fraud and abuse, but if you slash taxes and put half is the budget is sack ro saint, likely you' likely. >> i'm the only one that can do this. >> but there is math involved. you want to build up the military. >> you know how many jobs we have lost? we're going to bring our jobs back, bring our manufacturing back.

>> chuck todd. >> chuck todd. >> has taken this idea and pushed it into that realm. so if you are revulsed about what planned parenthood who whoever was in the video about the fetal heads, clearly you want to ban abortion. but that's not the case. i realize abortion is never going away. roe v. wade is here to stay. but you can express morel outrage about a changing morality that we've come to accept certain repulsive things. >> it is like out of a frankenstein movie. >> planned parenthood frankenstein there. there's moral outrage. and it's also legal. what she's saying was she tried to remove the intact skulls, why? not for any medical purposes, they were more valuable to sell to the labs that wanted to use them for medical research. that's why they were doing it. it's a profit motive. and that by definition is what's against the law. so you can have a moral, not have a moral problem with abortion or what they're doing. but you have to have a legal problem with what they're doing. >> legal and ethical. you should examine the legality and the ethics of it, juan. >> i

chuck todd with us here in new york. last time hillary clinton answered questions, it was at the end of her tenure as secretary of state. famously we've said over and over she had flown a million miles, she was exhausted. she was wearing corrective eye glasses for an injury and the enduring sound bite from that day was what difference does it make. because the idea of this was a spontaneous demonstration, a planned demonstration, today is a chance to replay that predicate, get the message right, show firmness and toughness and show she can outlast the questioners? >> politically all she has to do is survive today. house republicans have nothing to lose and everything to gain because there is this preconceived notion that, first of all, the country doesn't like house republicans, we know that, and there is the politicization of this committee has hurt them. but they have everything to gain. if they show statesmanship and get really serious and focus the questions on the essential question you asked right at the beginning,

chuck todd, thank you so much for being with us this morning. >> you got it. >> as chuck mentioned, heith presidential frontrunner donald trump, and that's all on "meet the press" this morning at 10:30 here on nbc 10. we are just a few hours away from more flooding. >> yes, you know, you live there. >> 2:00, that's high tide. depending on where you are along the beaches, and with that said, we are looking at beach erosion and property damage so we have a coastal flood warning for the beaches, and that's until midnight tonight and any low lying areas could see flooding as we go throughout the day. temperatures chilly right now, mainly in the 50s, 55 degrees in philadelphia, and cold this morning in many spots. we're going to keep it cold throughout the afternoon. the big story seeing the winds, they are gusting up to 35 miles per hour in some spots like atlantic city, and otherwise windy and 63 today, and then breezy tomorrow, and tuesday, 70 degrees and lots of sunshine. the middle of the workweek, really nice. >> we will look forward to it and have a great sunday. >>> good morning. ep

. >> i've never been the warm-up >> first time for everything, right, chuck todd? there, chuck. i think so. this is the first time that we have seen him out there with hillary clinton on the campaign trail. this was, understandably, a pretty good week by all accounts for hillary clinton. is this the new campaign that we'll see with hillary clinton there by her side? >> i think this campaign team acts like they have a little swagger now. i think that they believe bill clinton and they're seen this in their own polling and bill clinton is as popular as barack obama and if barack obama is not a surrogate for her, and i do think you're seeing the next phase of the campaign on that front and i think you'll see a lot more bill clinton than we did before. look, 12 days ago. there were concerns that if she was too much a part of the past. today, preparations and democratic elites and democratic donors feel better and the campaign feels more comfortable with clinton, too. >> on the other side of the aisle here, we heard from jeb bush and he was much more frank and we're also hearing abou
