clinton: i don't think so.ie: not in favor of corporate regulations as she should be, says elizabeth warren. hillary clinton: all i know is that it was in 2007 i called out wall street on the use of securities and call them out on the hedge fund loopholes. i have been very outspoken on this, and i have stood for a lot of regulation on big banks and the financial services sector. i also represented new york. i represented everyone from the dairy farmers to the fisherman. do i know people, and help rebuild after 9/11? yes, i did. charlie: and you save money. hillary clinton: yes. but that has nothing to do with my position. anybody who thinks i could be influenced does not know me. charlie: what about the reports of foundations and the money from the foundation? hillary clinton: it is ludicrous. the fact is, i saw a lot of people as secretary of state, and i worked really hard to increase exports from american businesses. i saw a lot of business people and union leaders. i saw as many people as i could fit in the

hillary clinton: well -- charlie: it takes two to tango. hillary clinton: he got a lot done.harlie: how can he do it? hillary clinton: get at it every day. charlie: it's not enough. hillary clinton: it starts with that, it starts with nurturing relationships. lady, when irst was a senator or secretary of state, i worked across the aisle all the time. sometimes there was only one thing that i could find to work with somebody on, because everybody -- everything else we were at odds. charlie: so you say to the new speaker of the house, hillary clinton is someone you can feel it, i'm prepared to reach out to you. hillary clinton: right, and i will do anything to find common ground, but i will also stand my ground. there are some things that are not good for the country. i will not give in on those. but there is a lot of room to find common ground. charlie: buton: you know a lot of people think the biggest problem for americans washington. and that is part reflected in the politics we see. hillary clinton: that's true. but look at the way our founders set it up. they set up the se

david: secretary clinton. mrs. clinton: right. josh: secretary clinton, how does your plan differentiate from your opponents? mrs. clinton: well, i have what i call the new college compact. because i think everybody has to have some skin in this game, you know. number one, states have been dis-investing in higher education. in fact, i think new hampshire, in state tuition for public colleges and universities, is among the highest if not the highest in the country. so states over a period of decades have put their money elsewhere; into prisons, into highways, into things other than higher education. so under my compact, the federal government will match money that the states begin to put back in to the higher education system. secondly, i don't believe in free tuition for everybody. i believe we should focus on middle-class families, working families, and poor kids who have the ambition and the talent to go to college and get ahead. so i have proposed debt free tuition, which i think is affordable and i would move a lot of the pell

hillary clinton f hillary clinton tried to get her punches in. she claims that donald trump, with his push for a temporary ban on muslims coming into america, is becoming isis' biggest recruiter. they obviously disagree with that in the trump camp. but that was her chance to take him on. what i found interesting, though, as she tried to show off her credentials as a former secretary of state, she may have slipped up a bit, talking about the president's isis strategy saying now, after these adjustments, we are where we need to be in the fight against isis. not a lot of americans, when you look at the polls, believe that statement. >> so ed, who was watching? >> we were watching. i'm not sure a lot of voters were watching. this is the second time in recent weeks that the democratic national committee has had a big democratic presidential debate on a saturday night. this time, of course, the saturday before christmas. people are either in church, shopping, or somewhere else. not necessarily watch thing debate. and i think the bottom line is, a key m

they did when bill clinton whole 98 was against bill clinton.donald trump wants to fight that fight. incidentally isn't there something about clean hands and throwing stones at glass houses. i don't know that we want to kind of get there tonight or ever. >> i don't want to speak for the trump campaign, richard, but i think the attack was that, listen, bill clinton abused his political power to hook up with women. he used state troopers in arkansas to arrange situations. he slept with an intern while he was the boss. and then he had a political machine go out and smear the women that bill slept with and hillary took part. katrina is, is that what donald trump was saying? >> absolutely, jesse. but here's the thing. donald trump didn't start. this hillary clinton called him sexist. of course he is going to respond. this is the mosquito biting the iron bowl, jesse. hillary clinton is campaigning with a woman who claimed she was raped. ended up having to pay out a lawsuit. she is campaigning on all rape victims should be heard. when she was asked at

president clinton.t's not just trump bringing bill clinton into the 2016 race. >> starting in january i will have my not so secret weapon. >> reporter: hillary clinton is trying to capitalize on his popularity with the democratic base. sending her former husband on the trail starting next week. another angle for trump to needle the clintons about, tweeting, remember that bill clinton was brought in to help hillary against obama in 2008, he was terrible, failed badly, and was called a racist. this morning, trump insisted he doesn't think bill clintons a racist, also suggesting clinton's not the dynamo he once was. >> i don't believe he is a racist, if you want to know the truth but they called him a racist, it was a miserable campaigning he did poorly and they're bringing him out again. he's being wheeled out. >> reporter: so far trump has been able to get his message out with media, calling into shows, twitter. cnn is told he had $25 million set aside for tv ads in 2015 and never spent a dime. starting

this helps clinton as well. her major area of weakness has been the democrats seeing her as anything she could do or her campaign could do to diminish the strength that sanders has had on ethics, ethical issues, is a win. she comes out being the candidate able to take the high ground on electronic data issues, which is surprising given what we' ve seen with her e-mail and file server. josh: this was not exactly the free pass senator sanders gave hillary clinton during the first start talking about the darn e-mails. she did say we were worried about this. but it is time to move forward. chris: andy is right. this is sort of leveling the playing field between clinton and sanders. there' s a possibility of bad blood between their strongest supporters but for most rank-and-file democrats this is a settled issue. josh: without any new information, you' ve seen the moving forward in the debate, martin o' malley came into this very aggressive and wanted to have a moment. he went after it on gun control. mr. o' malley:

america love hillary clinton? >> everybody should. with respect to my own husband, i am probably still going to pick the flowers and the china for state dinners and stuff like that. >> a little synopsis, a little something to highlight this two-hour plus democratic presidential debate. hillary clinton is a very good debater. i think she's made it clear on repeated occasions and david axelrod, in 2007, 2008, she was a good debater. she did well tonight. >> absolutely she did well. i agree with the democrats who are here on this panel in saying that the dnc, whomever was worried about her debating was crazy, basically. >> the accusation against the dnc only sticks -- republican ves many more and some of these debates are on a weekend and saturday night when most people aren't home. >> the saturday before christmas, exactly. to be fair, we don't know exactly who did it and why, but yes, of course, she has a lot of experience at this. she did it how many times during the democratic -- >> 25. >> but who is counting? du

[applause] hillary clinton: thank you. [applause] >> hello, my name is brenda bouchard, and i'm an advocate. [applause] >> my husband ken, has alzheimer's disease. my 89-year-old mother lives with us, she also has alzheimer's. 30 years ago, my husband asked me to marry him. i was sure there aren't many of you in the audience that no alzheimer's is a gut-retching and heartbreaking disease. at that time, he said to me -- i want to build a life with you. in 30 years from now, i would like to sit on a beach with you and reminisce about the beautiful life we built together. next year, we will be married 30 years. and we have had some wonderful memories, some really wonderful memories. but today, i am the only one with the memories. he no longer remembers. for the person with alzheimer's, how horrible to lose your memories. but today i'm here to introduce hillary clinton. i'm not only here on behalf of my husband, my mother, and myself, i am here for the more than 5 million americans that struggle with alzheimer's every day. and

>> should corporate america love hillary clinton? >> everybody should. >> will corporate america love a president sanders? >> no, i think they won't. amy: bernie sanders and hillary clinton spar in the third democratic presidential debate over wall street in the middle east while former maryland governor martin o'malley took on both his rivals on gun control. >> senator sanders, voted against the brady bill and to give immunity to gun dealers and senator sanders voted against sending research dollars to looking at this public health issue. secretary clinton changes her position on this every election year, seems, having one position in 2000 and then campaigning against president obama and saying we don't need federal standards. amy: we will air highlights from the debate, speak to phyllis bennis and bill curry. we will also go to burlington, vermont, to stick with the sanders campaign about why it sued the democratic national committee and why senator sanders fired a top data staffer and suspended to others. only do i apologize to se

clinton declares open season on bill clinton. this is "special report." >>> good evening from washington. i'm doug mcelway in for bret baier. in february caucus goers will pack high school gyms and local community centers to begin the 2016 nomination process in ernest. many candidates are pinning their hopes on the hawkeye state, but chief white house corresponde correspondent. >> it's now five weeks until the iowa caucuses, instead campaigning the florida he was bringing him out with donald trump. >> this is going to be huge. >> except trump is actually beating born anthony that he seems to be looking ahead to the next election. . >>> attacking bill clinton won't defeat hillary clinton. the only way to defeat hillary clinton is to attack child's. >> i think everything shows if president trump was. bill clinton steps up his campaigning after the first of the year. i. because of all the things she's talked become. he used bad language to describe the defeat. despite that charge, democratic socialist says he's trying to rule in att

president clinton." erin? >> sara murray, live in nashville, thank you. >>> "outfront" now, donald trump campaign spokesperson, katrina pierson and david brock. david, you heard donald trump. he said hillary clinton should stop using the quote/unquote woman's card in part given her husband's past. fair point? >> no. not at all. this has nothing to do with bill or hillary clinton. politically, this is a strategy by trump to feed red meat to the base because cruz is beating him in iowa. he can't go to the right of cruz on immigration because they both have such a draconian position. he thinks this is going to work with the base that may want to go back and relitigate something from 20 years ago but the public rejected it then, as donald trump did a few years ago. and what he's really trying to avoid here is taking hillary clinton out on the issues where she's got real differences on how to fight isis, where she wants to double down on special forces and have a no-fly zone and he wants to make an alliance w

so you know if you're hillary clinton, you're going to run on bill clinton's record to some extent. but i agree with sam in some ways, i don't necessarily -- there aren't a lot of swing voters left in a trump versus hillary clinton election. i'm guessing there will be even fewer swing voters than usual. but trump's running in the primary right now. i think getting in a fight with hillary clinton is really smart for him right now. this is a better issue, i would argue, than sort of the muslim man, for sure. it's something that most republicans agree that bill clinton's behavior in the white house was not appropriate. >> i'll give you the last word on this, ruth, because it was your column that sparked this lively discussion. >> i think it might have been trump that sparked the discussion, but thanks. >> well, there you go. but ruth, does it give you any pause as a woman, this idea that a woman candidate for the president of the united states gets judged based upon her husband, rather than her own record? >> it would give me pause as a general matter. i think this is such an unusual c

trump calling clinton a liar. saying the claims she made and there is no evidence to confirm them and demanding an apology. >> you see hillary. did you watch that? what happened to her? she's terrible. she's terrible. donald trump is on video and isis is using him on the video to recruit. and it turned out to be a lie. she's a liar. it turned out to be a lie. turned out to be a lie. and the last person that she wants to run against is me, believe me. believe me. >> reporter: and the clinton campaign is pushing right back defending her claim. they said she wasn't referring to a specific video, but isis using trump rhetoric on social media as a tool for propaganda. the clinton campaign asked if they will apologize. her spokesperson saying, quote hell no. hillary clinton will not be apologizing. for trump, this line of attack against hillary clinton helps him fire up his base. he will have a christmas vacation with his family in florida for the next week, i suspect this is not the last we have heard from trump on thi

"they are mistaken," clinton said. "i have no interest in taking guns away from any responsible gun owner." clinton says the majority of those gun owners support the reforms she's mentioned. "they don't like to see us losing 90 people a day to homicides, suicides, tragic avoidable accidents," clinton said. "but, we've got to get gun owners working with the vast majority of americans, more than 92 percent of us, who want to begin to get those guns away from and out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them." that way, clinton says, guns don't fall into the wrong hands. "we have just got to, matt, figure out how we're going to prevent and stop this," said clinton. >> matt also covered clinton's infrastructur e plan, the iowa assessment of her own campaign. to see the entire, unedited interview, click inside this story at our website, ktiv-dot-com. clinton talked about that multi-billion dollar infrastructure plan when she stopped in sioux city this afternoon. ktiv's tiffany lane shares what the plan includes. << "we

secretary clinton? >> you know, on my very first visit to new hampshire in this campaign i was in was asked what are you going to and all over new hampshire i met grandmothers who are raising children because they lost the father or the mother to an overdose. i met young people who are desperately trying to get clean and have nowhere to go because there are not enough facilities. so this is a major epidemic, and it has hit new hampshire and vermont particularly hard. i've had i've had two town halls, one in keene, one in laconia, talking about what to do and i've heard some great ideas about how law enforcement is changing its behavior, how the recovery community is reaching out. i was proud to get the endorsement of mayor walsh of boston who has made his struggle with alcoholism a real clarion call for action in this arena. so i've laid out a five-point plan of what we can do together. i would like the federal government to offer $10 billion states, and i really applaud governor hassan for taking up th

bill clinton will try to mobilize the vote in a state where hillary clinton is in third, which is iowa, by getting involved, i think could really jump-start her campaign. but what trump is saying, and candidly i think it's a change and a change in the wrong direction for the campaign, is that he's going to invoke the issues of bill clinton's personal life and issues that i personally dealt with when working for bill clinton in 1998 during the impeachment crisis. so this is a change in the campaign. and i would say arguably a change in the worst, for the worst. >> pat, trump seems to think he's got the gop nomination sewed up. what say you? >> well, let me say, first of all, i both agree and disagree with doug. i think if trump continues this track it's a mistake. but i tell you, sending a shot over hillary clinton's bow and to clinton himself, i, by the way, think clinton campaigning reminds everybody why they like him and why she is not him, is not bill. but on the one hand, hillary clinton and her campaign always default to the gender war and women card on anything they are hit with.

clinton's comments about isis.meanwhile, on the republican side, a new fox poll showing where the and dats stand following their debate. guess what? donald trump is leading by a larger margin that before. at the same time, the candidates there are taking off the gloves going at each other, especially from jeb bush. chr kristin fisher has more. >> not only did bush call trump a jerk. he said it was liberating to attack trump. he showed a more introspective side. >> i hate thad. >> you hated being a front-runner? >> yes. i feel better being back here. >> why did you hate being a front-runner? >> i always felt there would be a high expectation for me and i totally get it. >> because? >> because i have a brother that was president and a father that was president. that higher expectation was important to realize. >> now trump's the clear front-runner in the republican primary but not so much in a hypothetical general matchup. according to a fox news poll out friday, clinton would now beat trump 49-38. a month ago trump

will change with clinton out there. also with more money out there when it comes to donald trump and what he's sinking in, especially saying he is under budget when it comes to $35 million and fox news quoting unnamed sources as far as saying that they will soon be spending at least $2 million per week on advertising. today they have only spent $217,000 on radio ads. you give the amount that jeb bush has spent, the $40 million plus there and marco rubio, how is that going to change the dynamic of this race with this money being sunk in by donald trump? >> reporter: this is donald trump acting for a change like kind of a traditional republican candidate if he is to spend this kind of money. it is worth noting, though, that $2 million a week sounds loik a lot of money but it's really putting him on parity with what the rival campaigns are spending, jeb bush and his affiliated super pac, marco rubio and his super pac are spending more than $2 million a week. so donald trump is sort of just getting up to parity if he is to

clinton: this is a 360-degree strategy to keep america safe. and i want to walk through each of the elements from recruitment to training, to planning, to execution. first, shutting down recruitment. we have to stop jihadists from radicalizing new recruits in social media and chat rooms and what's called the dark web. to do that, we need stronger relationships between washington, silicon valley and all of our great tech companies and entrepreneurs. american innovation is a powerful force and we have to put it to work defeating isis. that starts with understanding where and how recruitment happens. our security professionals need to more effectively track and social posts and map networks and they need help from the tech community. companies should redouble their efforts to maintain and enforce their own service agreements and other necessary policies to police their networks, identifying extremist content and removing it. now, many are already doing this and sharing those best practices more widely is important. at the state department, i start

but what about donald trump going after hillary clinton? going after bill clinton? this work for him? >> well, it has thus far. look, i think donald trump has done something unique in this campaign which is he has understood the republican electorate better than any of the republican candidates going there and he's understood the media environment in which he can make these pronouncements. the problem for donald trump, though, is for as well as he is doing currently on the republican side, he continues to make himself less electable in the general election. you look at where his negatives are, they're higher than hillary clinton's. if you look at the matchups between donald trump and huillay clinton in a general election, he's the only candidate losing to hillary clinton in some cases by more than ten points. so for as much as this is getting him the attention he loves and adores and is getting him the crowds of republicans it is pushing him further and further away from the possibility of actually winning a general election. >> at the same time, matt bai, she has h

she talks about the clinton record more than about the obama record.ou cannot separate -- she just recently said she's not going to be called hillary rodham clinton anymore, just hillary clinton. >> as a journalistic question, how is it hillary fault that her husband messed around, as we know he did repeatedly in the past and while in the white house? >> i think voters will judge her as someone who tolerated it, and as someone who may have in some cases defended it. i think that's her real problem. this is talk and evidence that she did defend him -- >> of course she did. her version was she was deseved by her husband, that she did not know. you say she tolerated it. >> there were a lot of things happening where you can claim ignorance for only so long. for the media to just go after trump as sexist is superficial. you have to look at him as a ceo, what he's been doing his whole life. the washington post did a great story as trump as a ceo. you have to wait until the seventh paragraph in the story before they finally say many people who worked for him

hillary clinton's behavior is her behavior. donald trump, having cheated on his first wife with his second, and now he is on his third should not be pointing fingers at any man with regard to behavior. and remarks he has made toward women, i think, speak for itself with regard to how he speaks down to women and as a woman i do find him to have made sexist remarks in the past. >> well, first of all, according to the recent polling trump and hillary are tied. as you know and explicit co-s go out and they get back into the campaign trail. those numbers are going to go down for expresident clinton. what would you say? >> bill clinton there is a a big difference between cheating on your spouse and getting impeached. let's make that difference clear. with hillary clinton, she claims she is four women, -- she is for women. leslie, are you okay with her accepting millions of dollars from gulf nations that oppress women and strip them of basic human rights? if she truly cared about women, she would return all of this unsavory cash. >> w

hillary clinton is not responsible for what bill clinton did. i don't see the logic whatsoever in trying to suggest that she is in an equal position as donald trump here. >> and i want to get a final thought from you, kevin, my republican friend on bernie sanders going after donald trump supporters. you see -- do you see that happening? [ laughter ] >> i just don't see how the average donald trump supporter right now will get a phone call or some sort of knock on the door from donald trump and actually that working. i just -- it seems like they are from two different political universals. >> what do you think, dana? >> i think at first blush that's probably right but this could be a moment that the far right and far left kind of meet in the middle in terms of who they are looking for. i think they will be very few voters that really can turn to one and turn to the other and say maybe i'm choosing between the two of them but it is possible. >> peter, quick, quick final thought to you. what do you think about that? >> well, bernie, donald trump an

dana, as you know the hillary clinton campaign said her husband bill clinton former president of thenited states she called him her not-so-secret weapon. and starting in january right after the new year he's going to be out there aggressively campaigning for her among democrats in iowa, new hampshire, south carolina, some of these other states, nevada eventually florida. i assume he's a huge, huge asset for her campaign. >> sure. no question. look, the last time around in 2008 he was a mixed blessing for hillary clinton. we all remember why. he got into some sort of problems with some of the things he said that were offensive to barack obama and his voters. but it's totally different now because unless bernie sanders starts to do incredibly well in the next few weeks, it's not as contested, obviously, for hillary clinton. so he is going to do what only bill clinton can do in any party but particularly with the democrats. get people excited. remind them why they want to go vote. and just get out the vote. i mean that's really what bill clinton can do best. >> he's a unique politician,

hillary clinton and barack obama, and he kicked off his speech by saying he is hillary clinton's worst nightmare and claiming the clinton campaign is devastated by the things he's been saying but he did not dive directly into the accusations, into the criticisms he's been making about bill clinton's past infidelities. that's something he's been tweeting a storm about the last couple days but tonight he's not willing to go that far, at least on the stump in new hampshire, jim. >> on the second battle between the virginia gop and trump, this is essentially the establishment republican party versus donald trump. what is at the root of this battle? >> well, again, this was a tweet storm from donald trump going after the virginia republican party saying that they are trying to block independents, trying to block democrats from coming to the poll essentially what the republican party is asking voters to do is sign an affiliation and say you are a republican voter before you vote in the primary. the reason that donald trump is so concerned is one, because he's constantly looking for signs tha

i apologize. >> secretary clinton. do you accept? [ applause ] >> not only do i apologize to secretary clinton, and i hope we can work together on an independent investigation from day one. i want to apologize to my supporters. this is not the type of campaign that we run. and if i find anybody else involved in this, they will also be fired. >> secretary clinton, he's apologized. how do you react? >> i very much appreciate that comment, bernie. it really is important that we go forward on this. i know that you now have your data back and that there has been an agreement for an independent inquiry into what obviously, we were distressed when we learned of it because we've worked very hard. i said in the beginning of this campaign, we wanted to reach as many voters as possible. and we have tens of thousands of volunteers doing that and entering data all the time to keep up with what people are telling us. and so now that i think, you know, we've resolved your data, we've agreed on an independent inquiry, we should move on because i don

and now that bill clinton will be out on the campaign trail for his wife, donald trump says bill clintonfair game. >> i think he is fair game because his presidency was really considered to be very troubled, to put it mildly because of all of the things that she is talking to me with. >> bill clinton is fair game. evidence is the first thing listed on hillary clinton's resume. >> of course bill clinton is fair game he is a former president. >> would raise bill clinton as somehow a negative to their peril. >> because there are 4 0 new voters since bill clinton last appeared on the ballot. >> i think every poll i have ever seen shows if president clinton were a candidate tomorrow he would be reelected. >> she is playing the women's card. give me a break. so many women said you have got to keep her out. she is just terrible. >> hillary clinton, first of all, calls everybody a sexist. that's not fair game. >> she is playing that woman's card left and right and women are more upset about it than everybody else, including most men. >> the way to deal with a woman card is to attack her track re
