martha, let me thank you as well. i just want to start by asking everybody to keep the mayor of boston and his wife's and their family in your prayers. life has a funny way of throwing you the worst, and after all the years he spent serving i was hoping he was going to have the kind of retirement he deserves. let me say a couple things. first, i got in this race because i wanted to make government work better. i want to make it better for the people who pay the bills and the people who depend on it for services and expected to perform. i am proud to say so far i have gotten the endorsement of every newspaper in massachusetts, primarily because they believe i have the right agenda, the right skill set, and the right focus to get things done and to bring the kind of excellence and performance to beacon hill that has been missing. i hope you will consider voting for me on november 4. >> martha? >> thank you for the terrific audience. i am asking for your vote on november 4. i know you have heard about my brother and what

first, we will quiz martha raddatz on foreign policy. ♪ >> martha raddatz of abc news as interviewedome in the most powerful people in the world. she will be airing her exclusive interview with general dempsey on abc news. the report that kobani is likely to fall into isis control. can you talk about the significance? >> the significance is that if kobani falls. it is right there on the border with turkey. you will basically lose all of northern syria to isis. you have turkey not doing much about it. the reports are that you can see the bombing over the border, you can see what is going on but those turkish tanks are not moving. they are just sitting there. they would obviously do something if isis went over the border. general dempsey said that isis is not stupid enough to do that. you have all of the towns falling in that northern border area. you have refugees flooding over the border. one intelligence officer said there would need slaughter within 24-48 hours. general dempsey was not sure about that, he said there might not be even 5000 people in that town. it is hard to target n

i'm martha mccallum in tonight for megyn kelly. the cdc made an announcement, that they've outlined tough new standards for anyone coming in contact with ebola. it was just last week that thomas frieden was on "the kelly files" defending the workers when a nurse became infected. >> it said you don't have to cover your head gewith head gea and you don't have to cover your feet. wouldn't you admit that is insufficient? >> no. we know how ebola spreads. it spreads by direct contact, and sometimes more isn't better. you put on more layers, you put on more things, they're harder to get on, they're harder to take off. >> really? you would go into an ebola-infected patient's room, you would go in without covering your head and not being fully covered. you would do that? >> absolutely. >> we later showed pictures of thomas frieden visiting an ebola patient covered in head to toe. the new cdc guidelines, all people should be wearing double gloves, waterproof boot covers, fluid resistant gown, respirators, full face shield and surgical hoods

she used to be with martha stewart.b. >> they've dismissed paltrow's efforts to enter her domain saying she should stick to acting. and if paltrow were more competent in her acting she wouldn't be trying to be martha stewart. ouch. >>> one of hollywood's most beautiful couples may be working an one of the most beautiful babies. >> they haven't announced anything official but lively told "marie claire" last month that she'd like to, quote, spit out a little kid that is getting ready to start. >> but with this picture, no announcement necessary. she's cradling a baby bump published with an article called "falling for family." this is on her lifestyle website. congrats to them. >>> kanye west caught in a moment of unusual generosity. the rapper known for his outsized ego and scowling attitude was having dinner at a new orleans restaurant where a bachelorette party was going on so he bought them champagne. >> nice gesture. when they stopped by to thank them and get a photo, they kind of got a photo. okay. that's a photo. he

the race for governor is between martha coakley and republican charlie baker.n a debate an a local news station out by where i live. i say expected to because lates last week, martha coakley decided to decline the invitation. her campaign pulled out of the debate citing a scheduling conflict. here's the thing. that didn't mean the debate wouldn't happen. martha coakley's decision to decline that invitation meant her republican opponent charlie baker would get a full hour on tv himself. an hour of free air time by himself across a huge swath of the state a week and a half before the election because martha coakley decided she had something better to do. hard to believe, right? is it true or false? republican charlie baker will be appearing in a debate on thursday with no opponent to debate. is that true or false? it's now false. that story about charlie baker getting a whole hour of tv time to himself was correct when it ran. martha coakley did pull out citing a scheduling conflict and that did mean charlie baker was going to be alone an tv in western mass for a

>> i cannot explain that, martha. i can just tell you that what we want to do is make sure first protect the american public but do so based on scientific data. we keep repeating over and over again, the scientific data tells us that people who are without symptoms with whom you don't come into contact with body fluids are not a threat. they will not get infected. >> what's your reaction to this mandatory quarantine then in new york and new jersey? >> well, as a scientist and as a health person, if i were asked, i would not have recommended that. >> does it put more pressure on the cdc to change its policy? >> no. >> should there be some national policy? >> the cdc will continue to make their policies based on scientific data. now, that doesn't mean that they're cavalier about this at all. there are different levels of risk to a health care worker, and there are different levels of monitoring. if you put everyone in one basket, even people who are clearly no threat, then we have the problem of the disincentive of peop

and so i want to bring in abc's martha raddatz now. martha, you're about to show us a revealing before and after here? >> reporter: i am, david. up know, it looked almost certain kobani was going to fall just days ago. now, there is some hope. look at this. taken from across the border. in the first shot, up see the black flag of isis atop a hillside overlooking kobani. but in the next shot, the flag is gone, with kurdish fighters now apparently coaching that hill top. this does not mean the fight is over. kobani could still fall. isis fighters have been adapting and trying to blend into the populati population. but many of the civilians have now fled and that could be making the isis fighters easier to target. the chairman of the joint chiefs told me they send up jets and if they can find a target, they will take it out, david. >> all right, martha raddatz live in washington tonight. martha, thank you. >>> we move on now to hong kong, the pro-democracy demonstrations there taking a violent turn. police in riot gear using pepper spray
