what do you think about duval patrick jumping in? >> very interesting.0 or 70 days from the iowa caucuses new hampshire primary. will he take away from joe biden's lead? they will say no. the only campaign in this race that has a natural coalition of voters, what was the obama coalition, now to the finish line and eventually makes joe biden nominee. duval patrick's calculation, a lot of voters are undecided, looking for a candidate who can speak to what america should be and i'm a candidate who can do that. there are arguments we had so this is an interesting race for the governor of massachusetts but he has a short runway to get it done. he won't be in the november debate next week or the december debate. he has to give his message to the american people to make this an uphill battle. heather: duval patrick seems to think that perhaps there are some democrats still not satisfied with their choices but according to this fox news poll 69% say they are satisfied with her choice, only 28% saying they wish there were other options. is too little too late sin

is for duval patrick the impeachment hearing might create a path for him. he was the governor of massachusetts is most of new hampshire's population lives in southern new hampshire which is a suburb of boston and they know him and like him and he has an opportunity to win in new hampshire and if he wins in new hampshire he is in the game so why not get in the game. he has personal issues that are now behind him and he is in the game. i'm not saying the field is bad or not but in politics, you have to be ready and putting people in the race makes other people sharper and if you get out of the primary with all these high quality candidates you are going to be ready to face donald trump who is a tough campaign or so i expect this will be a fierce fight and the winner will be battle tested and that is what the winner needs to be. shannon: senator kevin kramer talking about the senate, that will take 6 senators off the campaign field if they get that. maybe we could go beyond the new hampshire primary for the fun of it. reaction from you? >> a lot of senators wh

basically i think duvall patrick may have a chance here.nd post some big dollars there. a theory of where he could win, that would be new hampshire. and then he's got to have a diverse coalition. by the time you get to south carolina, he could be positioned for that. so it will be interesting to see how big that moderate lane is. now, the reason he got in is i think there's a fear that biden is a little bit of a shaky front-runner, that pete can't necessarily put that diverse coalition together, and that warren and sanders are too far left for the general election. >> now, how do you feel the republicans -- say trump is still there in november, he's not convicted, and he's in office. who do you think gives the republicans the worst opportunity to retain the white house? >> probably that moderate lane, whether it be biden, buttigieg, maybe duvall patrick. but it's at the point, this whole thing will be played out in the suburbs, rev. unless you put, like, elizabeth warren, suburbanites don't want their private health care taken away. they do

let's talk about the possible of duval patrick possibly jumping into the race. is there a lane. >> i think, i think there has been a team with him for a long time and he has a more difficult time just because everybody is taken up, the donors are taken up, and he will have to plant himself and hope that everyone flames out around him.

look, i think duval patrick was a fairly successful accomplished governor.ennedy: no doubt. >> no someone who i politically agree with. i would say two things. that messag is not going anywhere. kennedy: is a nonmessage, mc platitude we heard enough, candidates left in race know not to do that. >> real message, they don't want elizabeth warren to be nominee. and they don't think that joe biden is up to the task, that is why bloomberg trial plan launched and duval patrick, this is the last-ditch effort to find someone to take that center lane and beat elizabeth warren. kennedy: if you want to be president you have to fight with the field. that is how i feel. and duvall patrick, he made be an accomplished governor with an imgreanimpressive resume. >> i agree with over 70% of democrat likely primary goers who say that they feel like the candidates in race are clear enough feel for them to choose from. i also believe in this i think that political highway is could pantioisexpanding to a traffic . we have too mane cars. kennedy: is that what democrats say if we o

the fact is most voters don't know who duvall patrick is and most voters are satisfied with the fieldore duvall. 69% of voters were satisfied with their choices, a little under 30% wanted more voices, so the question i am asking myself is, what is duvall patrick exactly seeing right now in the democratic electorate that makes him think he himself, who is not well known by voters nationwide, can go and shake up the field? so i just don't really get it, if i'm being honest with you. >> we've been following the field for months. all these candidates, all 18, except patrick, have been in places like iowa, new hampshire, early contests. they've been there for weeks, months, working the ground, meeting with voters. i mean, does patrick have a chance in a place like iowa, new hampshire? >> you know, the only polling that i've seen from any of those places is about a year old. it suggested that patrick was running well behind in new hampshire, despite the fact that he was from right next door in massachusetts, where he was governor. i should point out patrick does probably need to make a stro

she said, who is duvall patrick?aid that's probably going to be representative of a lot of seasoned african-american voters. >> you can introduce yourself here. how big a problem is that, hurdle is that for you, name recognition? >> that is a hurdle. celebrity is a big part of our culture today, and we have candidates who have turned themselves into celebrity and i get that. we have work to do to introduce not just who i am but what i have done and what i am about. i do understand having lived the american dream as i said, that it's been con trained and con stricted over the years and what it takes to rebuild it and to make it available to people everywhere. and i think that's something that people have a real hunger for and want some proof points of that. i can talk about how having come into the role of governor in massachusetts just as the bottom was falling out of the global economic eo economy and after eight years we are number one in student achoechlt, health care coverage, veteran services, energy efficiency,

and former massachusetts governor duval patrick is also considering a run.chris, i thought everybody was already in the race. and you have people finally leaving. and at the same moment there is a whole bunch of new people joining in. have you seen this before? >> americans got a brief glimmer of hope they wouldn't have to sit through six or seven hours of debates next time. all of these names were flirted initially, people who were considering it. it looks like they decided joe biden was going to be a formidable foe. i think this shows joe biden's weakness coming out showing in new hampshire and iowa. not yet national polls. i have never seen anything so late in the game like this. melissa: i think it's telling. people's actions more than their words tell you what they are thinking. you have democrats on tv talking about the president is under water. if you look at any poll, joe biden beats him handily. they talk about how unpopular he is. then they tuck about how the impeachment numbers are way up and most of america wants him removed. yet somehow in the f

governor duvall patrick would come to the state years ago.y a speaker at our annual democratic dinner, so i think he has a lot of folks that would be intrigued by his candida candidacy. but right now time is really tight. our primary is february 29th, and so to be able to get i.d. and to get people to really understand why he would be the best choice outside of vice president biden or others, i think time is really, really short, so if he comes, he'll have to be here often because folks here in south carolina like to be able to say they've seen you personally, not just on tv. >> do you think it's possible that he would take some support from joe biden of south carolina voters? >> i think that's really interesting. i'm not sure he would really be able to garner the support away from vice president biden. the thing about vice president biden and the reason south carolina has been named as a strong stronghold for him is because we have a history with him. he has been here long before his days as vice president. he has great relationships with co
