the hrc annual gala is, it is an important opportunity to address one of the key constituencies of therty. as you probably know, hillary clinton was invited. she had already been booked for "snl" so they created breakfast for her. was this a miss opportunity for her and how does this benefit vice president biden? >> it was a missed opportunity for her. but you have to make these choices. i think they made the right decision because lgbt people are going to be there for hillary or for whoever the democrat is. until the republicans get over this obsession they have with what people do in the bedroom. young republicans are already over that. it is really important that the party establishment realize that. those young republicans will tell you, i'm here at the convention, i'm a serious republican but this social stuff is silly, i don't pay any attention. biden is a natural in that audience and so i think what you saw the love fest that was given to him by hrc last night is a threat to hillary because a lot of people would love to -- especially a lot of gay men -- would like to go with bid

we do that through our partnerships with organizations like the hrc.e have been proud to stand with you in the fight for equal rights. against the wave of nd with you pro-discrimination bills. we were proud to celebrate with you onhat momentous ruling in june. it was a rare and special moment to watch our nation turned back a page in the history books. it marked a victory for a quality, perseverance and love. it also inspires us to keep up the fight. last year, around this time as some of you might remember, i wrote an essay that was deeply personal. i wanted to lend my voice to people who might not be ready to exercise theirs. it was an open letter to the public, but it was addressed most of all to everyone who had been rejected by their friends, or communities, or even their families, simply because of who they are. i will tell you, i did not do t for attention. i am a private person by nature. growing up, i was taught that you distinguish yourself and life by what you do, not buy what you say or how loudly you say it. sometimes, you just have to be

quote, hrc is driven by politics, not conviction. clinton is constantly shifting, dodging and changing positions to suit the politics of the moment. do you think she's changed? >> this should be no surprise, this is exactly the case that president obama made throughout the election. i think she's learned a lot of the lessons, her campaign has learned the lessons. so she comes in prepared. i think you hear the preview that jeff just gave us of martin o'malley's strategy. but clinton will see it coming this time. >> i think assume that hillary clinton hasn't changed. >> i read this memo. i thought what a great memo. must have been done a great job. >> i want to quote something else from the memo here. that dan wrote. okay. i don't know maybe axelrod wrote this line. >> had a million authors. >> i think we need that soundtrack. >> it says hillary clinton puts quote obtaining and preserving political power ahead of reliable principles. i mean, we are laughing about this, but when we look at the word cloud, quinnipiac did a poll, but the

as long as i'm appearing in hillary's future, the going wisdom that hrc is terrified any conclusion that fbi might come through while sifting through their e-mail server. people thinker who greatest fear is indictment, i predict that hillary wants to be indicted, she knows she is turn it and blame republicans and milk it as a huge fundraiser, with all elements she loves, victim hood, sexism, partisan witchery. and even then, she will never drop out of the race, hillary's other achille's heel has been her late rscexpect to thcp to ty soiree. -- i predict hillary clinton will set her sights on, wait for, monica lewinsky. yes. close your eyes and let your mind wander, you're welcome. >> predict three. since hillary clinton does not have any principles or philosophy or desire to make a bolle political statement unlist they are poll tested and necessary, she will fire up that bone dry tinderbox of a base, and blame republicans for everything. not just her server woes but blame them for losing lottery ticket, mood disorders, flat fires, pms, and sun spots, it will work. it sucks being psychic.

both of them were very, very warmly received at hrc. >> that comes at a whole new round of sun sourced but still breathless speculationing that vice president biden will declare soon, this week maybe that he is going to get into the race, maybe. i tend to not believe these stories, or pay too much attention to them when they come out every few day, only because they come out every few days and the only sources to talk about why joe biden is going to run for president are people who definitely want joe biden to run for president. so these people that don't know anything, nevertheless, give these blind quotes to the media, making it sound like a cartoon -- of course, he'll run because they want to make it sound like he'll run because they want to persuade him to run through the press. does any of that mean he is going to run? absolutely not. but in that context, i have a new actual piece of data to give you with a name attached. it's about whether or not vice president biden will run as president. as i said, this is a new piece of actual information. it has a name. and the name is the re

"outfront," dan pfeiffer, and jonathan allen, co-author of hrc, state secrets and the rebirth of hillarynton. you see bernie sanders in that piece. it's that endearing authentic man that voters are reacting to. when you look at the debate, it was pretty clear. voters thought hillary clinton was the clear winner of the debate. but she's not getting any bump in the polls. they're not saying they're going to vote for her as a result of that. is that a problem? >> i don't think it's a problem because she's got such a big lead right now. if you look at where things stand, bernie sanders needs to make a big dent in her lead. he didn't make a big dent. so if he's got 45% and he's sitting around that 30% mark, that's a victory for her. the longer she goes with that gap, the better off she is. he didn't shake up the race. and i think people who watch the debate, who were for her to begin with, are still for her. and people who were for sanders beforehand are still with him. >> it's a fair point. i want to note just for the record, she has a 16-point over bernie sanders. at the same time in 2008,
