to be a landslide, man. >> catherine lucey if you want to pick up on the voting blocks that the clinton camp is trying to court her and specifically the female vote. >> yeah. i mean obviously in the weeks and months leading up to this announcement, clinton has been doing a lot of first speaking events and has really been talking a lot more about gender equality, about equity in the workplace, about issues that particularly matter to women. and that's a contrast to 2008 where she didn't really at least at the get-go, talk about those things as much. certainly that's going to be a much bigger focus in her campaign appealing to women and some of the issues that are important to them. in terms of whether it will be a landslide, i think we'll all have to wait and see. >> and catherine lucey quick question from instagram please ask the reporter if hillary will take questions at the events in iowa and will they be staged like was revealed in 2008? what do you know about taking questions at those events? >> i do not know if she'll be taking questions at this events. they are -- there is going to be

bill: the clinton camp is saying they turned the corner on this. how is that possible when the book has been out the last 9 the or 10 days. >> the clintons are saying switzer has not presented any evidence to present any criminal charges of criminal activity by anybody the clinton foundation world. secondly about the uranium deal that we discussed a few days ago that benefited donors that had to be approved by a number of top u.s. officials including secretary of state hillary clinton. they are saying there is know evidence hillary clinton played any role in that or did anything in exchange for anything else. those are the basic contours of the clinton defense we'll see. bill: they are going after switzer for what he said over the weekend. what did he say? >> his argument is basically of course i don't have evidence of criminal activity, i'm not a prosecutor i don't have seen a power. but he's saying he found evidence of 11 different cases in which basically people gave large amounts of money to the clinton foundation and good things happened to the

look at the denial if the clinton camp. i want to put it on the board. you know as media -- as reporters yourself there are so many outclauses in this denial. read it for yourself. no one has produced a shred of evidence no one has produced a shred of evidence that hillary clinton ever took action as secretary of state in order to support the interests of donors to the clinton foundation. i mean there is enough room in that denial judith, to drive a mack truck through. >> absolutely. you're the lawyer, megyn. i tell you as a lawyer who read as statement like that howie may not disagree with me. i see so many questions i have just about that statement. >> right? at the two-hour press conference i'll be standing there trying to go through. >> it no one has yet to produce a shred. >> right. no one has produced it. they haven't produced evidence of it. it's another, she didn't do it. she didn't do it. anyway great to see you both. >> thanks megyn. >> before you think they're suddenly going tough on the democrats, stay tuned. dana perino is next with an eye-o

it's one of many challenges the clinton camp is facing and with me now to discuss it is fox news contributor and republican strategist tony and democratic strategic marjorie clifton. all right, guys. could clinton foub dags's questionable handling of donations have them saying enough is enough. >> i think it's going to pose a challenge but right now the facts are still yet to be seen. one of the un fortunafortunate she will take is bill clinton in some ways an as set, others a challenge. you have to remember around the time 2009 when donations were coming in. relations with russia were at an all time high. unfortunately, in 2015 it's a different place so the question remains how will this be seen. >> hang on, tony. >> you saw me, judge. >> the relations with russia were high -- isn't that because she did that famous reset button thing? >> it was negotiations. >> she reset it. >> judge, look, first of all, let's put this out there. the foundation was not a philanthropic organization or charitable -- >> it wasn't? >> lobbying arm of the clinton relationship. think about it. 85% of their money,

. >> the clinton camp put out a statement saying there's no shred of evidence that secretary clintonlinton foundation. fill up, to you on this in the end, is this really about disclosure of donations and not really influence in the broader scope? the clinton camp claims there are no dots to connect here. >> right. i mean, it's true. there's a lot of smoke. there isn't any fire. i think the statement today was intended to dissipate some of the smoke. a lot of the issues that we're dealing with here are very nuanced and intricate financial transactions. there's a gentleman who is canadian who used to own the company, at the center of the story. he got a commitment to get money contributed to his philanthropic efforts, then that came during the time that they weren't supposed to be accepting donations. it wasn't reported because it was in canada. there's a lot of intricacy to this. i think the point that ms. fox made is the right one, that people look at this aren't like what is happening, what -- i see all this smoke, something must be under that. granted clinton's numbers are declinin

>> host: catherine lucey, if you want to pick up on the voting blocs that the clinton camp is trying to court here and specifically the female vote. >> guest: yeah. i mean obviously, in the weeks and months leading up to this announcement clinton has been doing a lot of speaking events and really has been talking a lot more about -- than she -- about gender equality, about equity in the workplace about issues that particularly matter to women and that's a contrast to 2008 where he didn't really at least at the get go talk about those things as much. so certainly i think that's going to be a much bigger focus in her campaign, you know? appealing to women and some of the issues that are important to them. in terms of whether it's going to be a landslide i think we'll all have to wait and see. >> host: and catherine lucey quick question from instagram from still an individual please and the reporter if hillary will take questions at the events in iowa, and will they be staged like was revealed in 2008? what do you know about taking questions at those events? >> guest: i do not know if sh

he asked him about criticism from the clinton camp that this was a right wing hit job. here is that exchange. >> i went to the investigative units at "the new york times," "the washington post," fox news and abc because i wanted this evidence to be evaluated and looked on the. to not be seen in partisan terms. >> the clinton pushback is swizer is this partisan guy. all these conspiracy theories before the book was out. >> the media is saying what is your answer? they are not giving that response. that reflects poorly on the clinton campaign. they attack the author which as we know again, "the new york times" took it forward and started investigating it further. it became a bigger story. >> not all media outlets have gone crazy on this. the morning shows and nbc have done two stories this week but nothing on the cbs evening news. i find it inexplicable. reporters often get material from people sources who have strong view points axes to grind. that is not unusual, but how do you deal with that? >> you have to deal with what is the news here? i think because there was a l

she will finish destroying this country that obama started. >> shira center what has been the clinton camp response to comments like that and discussion about hillary clinton's record? >> yeah, well they've first of all mentioned her breadth of experience. her time in the united states senate as a united states senator from new york they also mention her time as secretary of state. they call her one of the most qualified candidates to ever run for president. i'm sure the caller who just called in would not agree with that assessment. in terms of her accomplishments as secretary of state, they talk about a lot of her work with women and girls, start small businesses across the globe.

. >> the clinton camp's pushback focused on schweitzer's background writing for breitbart.com, advising george w. bush's white house and sarah palin. >> it's a book that's written by a former bush operative, who's a reporter for that agust news operation, brighteitbart.com, or has been in the house. >> fox news aired a program on donors pushing a uranium deal. >> for that deal to go through, it needs federal approval and one of the person who has to approve that deal is secretary of state hillary clinton. >> who as senator clinton was vigorously opposed to these kind of buys from countries into u.s. property? >> joining us now to analyze the coverage mercedes a former bush white house official. bob cusack, editor in chief of "the hill." and joe trippi democratic strategist and a fox news contributor. when you get into the russian-controlled uranium company that gave millions to the foundation half a million to bill clinton for his speech needed state department approval while hillary was secretary, are you surprised by the depth of the reporting, just by "the new york times" alone? >> a

that complicates the clinton camp's argument. >> he's a conservative but doesn't go out and fabricated stories. fantasies about the evils the clintons are doing, which is standard fare for clinton books written by republicans. the 2012 stock act, i'm sorry, insider trading in congress that led to the 2012 act. he's a well regarded guy by those who aren't on the payroll who aren't clinton partisans and i think as the time"times" story shown today, it's based off things in the real world and raised a lot of questions. the fact they'll refile tax forms, i think emphasizes the fact that there really are questions that need to be answered. >> i am surprised. the refiling of the tax forms would seem to be the biggest concession here in terms of the clintons not having their ducks in a row, in advance of what was a very expected announcement of the can da the candidacy. >> it's easy to turn that into 30 second commercials. that was always the problem with the hillary e-mail scandal. republicans would say, well it's not that easy to turn into a linear argument about why her leadership is flaw

right now the main focus for clinton's camp is getting voters to know hillary the person. 's cnn's gloria borger. >> poppy, for the past month i've been talking to some of the people who know hillary clinton best, and i've asked them what she's like off stage away from the cameras and why after three decades in the public eye she's choosing to run the presidential gauntlet for a second time. here's what they told me. ♪ ♪ unless you've been living on another planet for the last few decade, there's one political star that's been unavoidably present. >> not too many people with the one name, hillary, a few others, madonna and a few others, but everybody knows hillary. >> maybe not as well as close friend virginia governor terry mccallive, but well enough to be on a first-name basis as in hillary, the young watergate committee lawyer. hillary, first lady of arkansas and first lady of the united states. hillary, senator from new york, and presidential candidate, hillary, secretary of state and presidential candidate. >> i'm running for president. >> it was a decision that surpri

the beltway at the brooklyn new york site of hillary clinton's campaign headquarters well the clinton camp has been quick to dismiss peter sweitzer's new book as a partisan smear but declined our invitation for an interview. lanny davis has agreed to talk. he has a long history handling clinton legal troubles advising then president clinton on campaign finance and impeachment. welcome back. >> thank you, chris. >> let's start with one of the big points that peter makes in his book. how do you explain bill clinton's speaking fees went up after his wife became secretary of state and the fact that the 13 speeches he's made since he left the white house for which he was paid $500,000 or more 11 of those 13 were while she was secretary of state. >> i can't explain why people decide to pay george bush and others lots of money, that's there decision. knowing bill clinton all of these years he's worth listening to and because of his activities all over the globe and certainly in the foundation he's probably worth that amount of money. >> i gels the question is you would think the market would be t

. >> the clinton camp notes that you work for george w. bush in his white house. they note you also work for the conservative news website, and what they say, in effect this is a right wing pitch job. >> it's an interesting statement. the two previous statements i've done "throw them all out," looking at self enrichment and insider trading by members of congress. the republican committee of house financial committees and stock trades and the more recent book "extortion" i was criticized by john boehner because i looked at his fund-raising efforts. when we wrote this book i went to investigative units at "new york times," fox news and abc, preceasely because i wanted this evidence to be evaluated and looked at. to not be seen in partisan terms. these are not cupcakes. these are serious journalists and they are confirming the reporting we found. >> finally, is it true, because it's been reported this week, that you are looking into jeb bush's finance when he was governor of florida? if so, what have you found? >> we've been looking at it for four months. we've got r

the denial that the clinton camp issued. the viewers. has produced a shred of evidence that hillary clinton ever took action as secretary of state in order to support the interests of donors to the clinton foundation. i mean i can highlight at least five outclauses. >> right. >> right there. that could make that statement consistent with everything she was accused of in the a block of our show. >> right, of course. and that's what they do. you parse the sentence you take the appositive phrase out, you put it in the back of the sentence and maybe there is a semblance of truth to it. but again -- >> she didn't do it. completely false allegation. >> we also megyn, have a lot of e-mails that are poof gone. if you can't produce that evidence maybe the evidence is in the hand of foreign governments or maybe the evidence -- if it exists is in the hands of foreign individuals. but those e-mails are gone. we're never getting those e-mails back. >> the clinton foundation taking donations from and some quid pro quo going on ge and they have been as

. >> the clinton camp notes you work for george w. bush and his white house and worked for the conservative news website. and this is a right wing pitch -- >> it's an interesting statement, the two previous books, i threw them all out, which looks at inside trading by members of congress. i looked at dennis hastert and his stock trades and in extortion i was criticized by john boehner about his practices. when we finish researching and writing this book, i went to the investigative units at "the new york times" and fox news and abc because i wanted this evidence to be evaluated and looked at to not be seen in partisan terms. these are not cupcakes or partisans. these are serious journalists and confirming the reporting we found. >> is it true because it's been reported this week you are looking into jeb bush's finance when he was governor of florida and if so, what have you found? >> we've been looking at it for four months. weaver continuing, we've actually talked previous to the book sort of coming out and being exposed, we talked t

mark: moving to rubio -- if you talked to people in the rubio camp and the clinton camp, you hear differents about is this a coincidence that she is going to basically announce on a sunday and he will announce on monday? both camps are trying to spin this as not either, this was a plan or great for us. is it good for marco rubio to have the opportunity to juxtapose himself with hillary clinton or is it bad because he will be overshadowed? jonathan: it is not bad, but it is hard to see it as a great thing. would he have liked to have a ted cruz style three-day ride on the media like we had two weeks ago? yes. is he going to find a way to try to create a dynamic where he is this generational bookend on monday to her sunday announcement? yes. will it be effective? we will see. mark: how does he do it? jonathan: he makes changes to his speeches to talk about what she said on sunday. trying to use that as a frame about his campaign about why be a summary that reflects a 21st century approach to governence. john: one of your colleagues wrote a piece about how the arc of rubio going from a protÉgÉ

agencies signed off on this deal with the clinton camp saying that mrs. n did not know about this. the other agencies are who? >> it's a committee that comes together to approve strategic resource deals like this obviously uranium is a material that's used in nuclear weapons, so it's one of these high-profile deals that needs high-level approval. a lot of time the clinton allies will come out and deny, you know involvement. but there's so much circumstantial evidence that we have to consider the big picture of there's so much preferential treatment that were given to entities that were generous donors to the foundation that we can't ignore this based on this plausible deniability. >> is your conclusion from the reporting that those who made donations are really looking to buy access? >> that is certainly what the pattern suggests. we don't have a smoking gun. in peter schweitzer's new book there's likely there won't be one piece of evidence that nails them to the wall but it's such a convincing and repetitive pattern over time that shows these entities wer

the clinton camp announced she'll travel to new hampshire monday and tuesday saying it will be the firstnversations about how the make the economy work for every day americans. she'll head with questions with over whether she's a flip-flopper. on thursday a clinton spokesperson said she supports giving driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants. she gave an answer in a 2007 debate. that came a day after her campaign statement of new views of same-sex marriage. and martin o'malley is sounding like a candidate in his criticism of her evolving views. >> i'm glad she's come around to the right positions on these issues. i believe we are best when we lead with our believes and not with the polls. leadership is about making the best decision and the right decision before sometimes it becomes entirely popular. >> p

a number of sources in the clinton camp say she'll announce her campaign for the 2016 democratic presidential nomination as early as this weekend. the "new york daily news" and a british newspaper announce that it could come on sunday. there's no comment yet from the clinton campaign. >>> meantime, according to just-released polls, new jersey governor chris christie's approval rating hit a new low. the rutgers eagleton survey found 54% of registered voters disapprove of the job he's doing. 41% approve. the polls also show the republican governor sinking to new lows when it comes to thoughts about him rebuilding after superstorm sandy, as well as taxes and state budget. >>> wait times at veterans affairs clinics are not improving. that's even after congress gave the department more than $16 billion to hire more doctors and open new facilities. this morning we have a look at how our area is shaping up. according to an associated press report more than 18,000 medical appointments were delayed by more than a month in pennsylvania, but the vast majority of patients did receive care within 30 days.

>> reporter: clinton's camp now calling the claims of undue influence totally baseless and partisan conspiracy theories. but daughter chelsea today promising even more transparency. >> we will be even more trans parent. >> reporter: you can see chelsea clinton coming to the defense of her mother. she said, you won't see much of me during the campaign because i'm a new mom. >> reporter: she's a huge asset to this campaign and the campaign staff knows that the donation allegations are not going away any time soon. i would be shocked if we don't see chelsea playing a big role for 2016. but look when she's out there and the same for the rest of the clinton family as we saw today, they are all going to be facing tough questions, david. >> these questions aren't going away. cecilia, thank you. >>> tonight, lor let that lynch has been confirmed as the nation's next attorney general. history this evening. the first african-american woman to serve in the post. >>> now, to baltimore tonight. a city on edge again this evening. hundreds of protesters swarming city hall. the governor dispatching state troo

discussion at the event should lean heavily to national defense but with developments from the clinton camp with senator rubio demanding the clintons return all of their foreign donations, the latest clinton scandal should work its way into front and center with this discussion. bret, back to you. >> mike tobin, thank you. who do you think will fair best in iowa? let me know at facebook.com/bretbaier. >>> tough times for the man known as america's toughest sheriff. joe arpaio is charged with contempt of court for violating orders of a ban on racial profiling. >>> baltimore police are admitting mistakes were made during the arrest of freddie gray who died following unexplained injuries while in police custody. the mayor demanded answers as to why police policy was not followed during his arrest. the police commissioner agreed. there are many questions that need to be answered. >> we know he was not in the transportation wagon as he should have been. no excuses for that period. we know our police employees failed to give him medical attention in a timely manner multiple times. there are still

. >> the clinton camp is preparing for an onslaught. >> we're not big on clinton in our family. >> on april 23rd clinton campaign press secretary offered a denial of charges made in a "new york times" story about uranium one, stating, skoet, no one one produced a shred of evidence hillary clinton ever took action to support the interest of donors. to suggest the state department exerted undue influence in the u.s. government's review of the sale of uranium one is utterly baseless and there may be legal peril facing clintons down the road. >> she's not detected bit fact her husband's foundation but spouses interests are attributed to each other. that is neither excuse nor defense. >> this controversy does not seem to be likely to go away soon. >> too much media reported on this to make this go away. new york times is not not involved in the conspiracy. news reports of the "wall street journal" are not. and certainly, we're not. >> clintons are no strangers to controversies. bill rode out more than a few in his day. if charges gain traction will hillary be as lucky? or will people worry

the clinton camp doesn't seem to have a lot of answers come instead they will attack the author and ofrepublicans and anyone wants to talk about this and there was one journalist who said it is a three-part process. deny and deflect and mean. do you agree with that? >> wouldn't you do the same thing when i. >> that is a great strategy, by the way. and in all fairness to hillary clinton, if we had a republican front runner the democrats would have a book, there would be one, and this is just politics. >> that is what the campaign spokesperson said. this is politics, it's politically motivated. but the problem is when they dismiss full-scale, all of the charges in the book, they do not take the conflict of interest are very seriously. and i think that that is detrimental to her in the campaign because at some point you can't just say oh, you have to have knowledge why people might look sideways at this. >> the other thing they are trying to do is attack the messenger. you know, this is right-wing, "new york times", this is mainstream, as legitimate. >> that includes insider trading on wa

it appears everything the clinton camp is doing right out of the playbook including the of the and from this to be due. -- scooby doo. >> i thought it was done correctly then with the road trip there was some spontaneity that felt positive she was having fun. kennedy: correctly? low expectations. remember shelly's sterling the long-suffering wife, of racist donald sterling? she sd thgh oe th had hatconrsaton o dnald ay mehins. udgeulein favor of the estranged mrs.. that lady will have to give up the bentley and a ferrari the $2 million duplex and whatever else she can shake. good job. they both claim their relationship was not sexual. the vast majority of americans think their taxes are too high. but today is tax day and we are helpless pawns. so we paid the bill. and the senate finance committee has taken issue ex know why did they spend $8,000 on the stair climber? 4.$3 million for market research? everybody hates you. even $4 billion of office furniture. i am on board with all of your objections except the office furniture. if agents are sitting around in discomfort they will take th

there have been several statements from the clinton camp. to read part of the statement from the acting ceo of the clinton foundation. she says there were mistakes. "our error was that government donations were mistakingly combined with other donations. those same grants have always been properly listed in our audited financial statement." you have brian fallon go on and refuse each claim. peter: the facts do not correspond to that. bloomberg this morning, and the washington post reporting that we now have 1100 donations that ended up at the clinton foundation that were never disclosed. part of the memorandum of understanding with the obama transition team is they would disclose all donations, including donations going to this entity. that statement, they are behind. betty: you say that is erroneous? peter: it is not been verified by the post that you have these 1100 donations that they never disclosed. there were supposed to disclose all of them. if simple requirement that president obama put in place as a condition for her to be appointed

with new developments on the clinton camp demanding that they return all their foreign donations andion of the latest scandal should work its way to the front and center at this event. back to you. lou: mike tobin from iowa. in indiana a high school usable performance ended with a huge accident last night, a stage at this high school claps during a concert inspired by pop stars from the 80s. as you see there are 16 students that were injured when the stage gave way. the police say about two dozen students were jumping up and down as you can see just before it collapsed, one student still in the hospital, everyone else has been treated and released mike pence is calling for an investigation and a group of swedish police officers vacationing in new york helped to avoid a potential tragedy this week and restore law and order, as you can see the scandinavian tourists were aboard a train when they had to break up a brawl, a vicious brawl aboard a newark city subway. onlookers claim it looks like a boy band that these guys were on their way to see a play when two men savagely attacked each

the trouble the clinton camp is having they try to make the discussion about me through twitter or the facts lou: i may be wrong but i believe they were the first to use the phrase politics of personal destruction it is a tactic in has been throughout decades hillary and bill followed by a logging rights to a canadian billionaire. it goes on and on. in india and deal for a nuclear energy. into cells and date that was the main gauche trade? [laughter] tell us about this. how does it escapes scrutiny up to this point? to make it was a very intensive research project with a lot of people looking at it. we "follow the money". a lot of money going to the foundation and the clintons with the speaking fees but it is also global from all over the world. we had business before the state department looking at shipping records, tax records so it is a very difficult story to put the pieces together for once you do date -- to realize there is a template that clinton as senator or secretary of state takes on a foreign interest once it to go their way the money flows to them and she delivers it is a

the clinton camp says they are conspiracy theories. what say you? >> i've dealt with the clinton foundation and the work i did was devoted to trying to make piece in the world and fight aids in ukraine. i've seen the allegations, particularly the one about uranium one and the sale of the entity giving the russians 20% of the uranium market and it's very disturbing. my feeling is that they should be investigated but i see no evidence that a bribery was involved i see no evidence of corruption or conspiracy. what i do see evidence of is a rollout of her campaign and ed will have something to say about this in a few minutes that has not been successful. >> and that would be what pat? >> well when you start a campaign and you spend all of it running around being attacked for things you should have taken care of before you announced but you know what she does have problems. this thing coming out that it's a conspiracy doesn't work. this book has no anonymous sources, by the way. it was not given to political reporter and went to investigative reporters an

according to a memo obtained by fox news, according to the clinton camp, they say that she has a smallor list compared to president obama. but that, of course, could be just trying to rally support for hillary clinton as this campaign begins. charles. charles: thank you very much. all right. i know hillary is running -- i think she said the champion of people. how does she connect to small people or smaller, average people with the amount of money that her and bill have made -- earned over the last years. with the amount they take from the foundation from any source out there. the idea they'll have two and a half billion dollars. how does that connect to the average person in america? >> there are two issues. the first is, it will be hard for her to say she is average. because she's not. she's lived a very nice lifestyle. there's nothing average about her anymore. that will be difficult. but on the other side, raising the money is different from her image as to who she is as a person. raising the money, remember karl rove in citizen's united, it was his great idea to make all this mone

there was feuding between bill clinton's camp and the hillary clinton campaign between the two staffsrstand he is going to be much more closely behind the scenes involved this year in terms of strategy. remember he is one of the foremost democratic political animals still active in politics. remember back in the 2012 campaign when he emerged as a very eloquent spokesman for president barack obama. he has formidable political skills which can be brought to bear on behalf of his wife. how does he do that without overshadowing her? we are talking about a campaign of the future not the past. republicans will want to hark back to the scandals of the 1990s. it's a very delicate task the clinton campaign has. it's going to be interesting watching how they differentiate that from the trouble they had in handling bill clinton in 2008. >> all right. stephen collinson thank you so much. >>> today in boston is bittersweet. >> patriots day, marathon monday still among the most beloved traditions. people here want to keep that tradition alive and keep people coming out. we'll talk about what offici

. >> you are the author of a clinton book, the push back you get from the clinton camp when you write a book they don't like. >> they go ahead and call you a liar and don't actually engage in any substantive issue and that is what is happening here. it has happened to me and it is happening to this new author, trying to call him a liar and distract from the substantive issues that the book is reportedly raising which are serious questions of ethical and morals and frankly the way we do business in america. it completely undermines hillary clinton's argument as secretary of state if these allegations are true and it requires serious questioning and distractions are to be expected. hillary clinton's distractions. we should focus on the substance once the book comes out and get to the bottom of it and focus on the fact, not at hominem attacks. >> the quote on monday in new hampshire was we will be subjected to all kinds of distractions and attacks. there seems to be that attempt to sort of lumped all of this together and fro it away and say it is not an e shoe. does she need to, based on

. >> you talk of hostility from the hillary clinton camp but off the record meeting at the house of john podesta's house with reporters from "new york times" and "washington post" and "politico" and more a peace offer increasing. >> he is making pasta so i hope they brought someone to test the food. >> and bloomberg ran a story based on a hoax saying nancy reagan endorsed hillary clinton. it will be crazy. >> there are thin they want believe and by the way kate does a great job as hillary clinton and that can form a narrative that the media can follow and she nails it in a biting way. >> she will always have to dodge that. they are trying a different strategy. but clinton, overall, he could be polarizing and he is still a popular figure can that overriding factor will help her. not hurt. even given the "saturday night live," skits it will be positive. >> if you elect hillary clinton you get two for the price of one. >> i cannot begrudge chelsea as someone who has buck teeth and frizzy area i love it. >> you had a great makeover. >> and marco rubio announces on monday. ahead a very differ
