back with us, michael steele, e.j.dionne and josh barrow.hat do you make of that national review criticism that republicans are not speaking to middle class voters. >> i was flabbergasted with excitement that someone actually had the tumerity to put it out there, the truth. this idea of governing is a foreign concept to many right now who are running for president. they need to have that conversation, i think he put it out there very accurately. >> so michael, as the race sits tonight, do you agree with ramesh that it's likely hillary clip ton will win the presidency? >> she has the advantage. there's a blue wall. the number of states in which the democrats have a decided edge. some 242 elakt ral votes to 109 for republicans. electorally speaking. there's also the messaging advantage. particularly on middle class economic empowerment. the conversation inside the party around jack kemp. there are a lot of folks who have been saying we need to go back to the future, if you will, in order to understand exactly how to communicate on some of thes

. >> msnbc political analyst, former republican chairman michael steele joins me now. michael, the reason why trump keeps bringing it up is it seems to be working. it's getting under jeb bush's skin and jeb bush's polling has just collapsed since he's been called, you know, too lethargic by donald trump. >> it is a little bit curious. he's got a six-fold lead over jeb bush in most of the polls, certainly in places like iowa and new hampshire, where they really -- the polls really do matter. this seems to be a level of baiting that really, i think, has some consequences for both teams. one for jeb bush in how he responds to it. i really think jeb has to get to the point where he says to donald trump shut the hell up. i mean, that's the point he's at rieg n right now. if he doesn't show that level of push-back, yeah, the argument that he's lethargic and weak will take hold and it will be much harder later on. for donald trump, he's running the risk of taking down his own credibility. no one is blaming george bush for 9/11 happening. to make that kind of leap, everyone kno

. >> rnc former and msnbc analyst michael steele. michael let me start with you. this does seem to expose the fact that at its core the republican party has not figured out how they are reconciled to george w. bush's legacy, what they think about it, and how they're going to talk to voters about it. and even if it weren't jeb bush it seems like that's a thing that republicans are going to have to figure out how to talk about. >> i think you're right to some degree on that. there's this whole battle right now between relitigating the past and trying to put the country at least conversationally on a better footing in talking about how we deal in, you know, a post-9/11 world with an isis and all of that. so i think you're seeing some of that tension bear itself out right now with a lot of the gop. my takeaway, there are a couple of takeaways, but one of them that i have is that one of the beneficiaries of this conversation is rand paul because a lot of what trump is talking about, despite his, you know, trashing rand paul at various times, is exactly what rand paul w

we don't need evidence. >> no, nothing. >> thank, michael steele. i have to be prodded along here. coming up, donald trump senses a threat from marco rubio. watch him stomp the guy. trump's not alone. rubio is rising. he's become trump's number one worry. you know, mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all? he thinks it might be a little guy named rubio coming at him. does rubio have a real shot at the nomination or is he just the republican flavor of the month? i don't think he is a flavor of the month. i think he's a danger to trump. plus, joe biden is getting close to decide whether he's going to run for president. and politico reports that when maureen dowd that joe biden says that beau tried to get him to run, that that was from joe himself. and can hillary clinton beat back the challenge from bernie sanders by exposing the deep divide between two of them on the issue of gun safety. he's to her left on just about everything else, but not gun control. finally, a newly recovered or uncovered speech on gun control by robert f. kennedy. catch this back in '68. >>

michael steele, what do you say? >> oh, absolutely he does.ll the hiccups and the organization is that they are organized. they have put the ground game in place in key states and they're playing the long ball here. one thing i'll give them credit for, they have not been distracted by the numbers to the point that they panicked. he will be in this through the end and you have to deal with maybe two or three people at the end of this thing and jeb bush will be one of them. >> quickly michael, i mean, david. >> i think there is a chance. i'm not as optimistic as david is. if the dog doesn't eat it, it doesn't go anywhere. >> thank you, gentlemen, can't wait to see what happens tonight and what you have to say after the big debate. thank you, both. >>> hillary clinton will make her presence known when her campaign actually airs four new tv ads during the debate. the ads portray her as a fighter for women and kristen wellker reports from new hampshire where clinton is campaigning today. >> tamron, good morning. secretary clinton will be far from t

michael steele said to me i think that jeb just picked the wrong fight.f the fights that happened last night were with the media. a lot of people looked at the debate and it was mentioned that jonathan's package, as well, when you hear the way that the republicans were talking about it, they said cnbc dropped the ball. the head of the r.n.c. tweeted this out, saying in spite of the moderators, i'm proud of our team for standing up against the improper and unprofessional display put object by cnbc. that distracted from a lot of it. you talk about who had a lot to proof, cnbc had a lot to prove, but jeb bush didn't get done what he needed to get done. >> jeb bush was the man to beat, now the polls have him far behind carson and donald trump, dr. ben carson. how did they do last night? >> donald trump and ben carson had different debates, ben carson coming as a doctor to a debate that was billed as your money, your vote. people thought this is where he would be vulnerable. he wasn't tested. that frustrated the bush people and trump people. for the most part,

chuck todd, steve schmitz and michael steele, the former chair of the republican national committee. let me go to chuck on this. i don't know. you tell me, who won? >> this is marco rubio's debate. pure and simple. he's got the viral moment that i want to have. he was put in the spotlight early. he was going to be on the defensive early. his main rival jeb bush decided to go after him. he swung, he missed and rubio fired back hard. look, if marco rubio end up the republican nominee, we'll say it began with this debate. >> it started because of rubio's great absencee rate as united states senator. he was asked about a newspaper editorial that came out today that challenged his voting record in the senate. jeb bush jumped in on the criticism. let's watch. >> barack obama missed 60% or 70% of his votes and the same newspaper endorsed him again. so this is another example of the double standard that exists in this country between the mainstream media and the conservatives. >> i'm a constituent of the senator and i helped him and i expected that he would do constituent service, which mean

be careful what you wish for. >> do something or get off the pot, that's all i heard from michael steeleyesterday it was all about jim webb dropping out. curiosity today is whether or not biden gets in. tomorrow it's all about the hillary performance. bernie sanders called joe a good friend and martin o'malley reacting and still in the race. we haven't heard from lincoln chaffey yet. nbc news/"wall street journal" poll found 38% of democrats didn't want biden to run. do you think that could change in polling because the effect of what he did today and looking like the senior statesman stepping out of the way, do you think that could change? >> no. i mean, i think when he says i will not be a candidate, absolutely take his word for it. he is clearing out of that part of the race but he also when he says i'm not going anywhere and i plan to play a significant role in this campaign, i also take him serely on that point. i mean, look. i saw joe biden in action close up in two presidential campaigns and he really brings it and what he brings to the table is a kind of connection with middle cl

michael steele, a great man. strategist chris cofinis.sumed favorite, comes into the debate with some damage. when's the strategy going in, especially if they bring up benghazi? >> hold your lead. her strategy is to hold her lead. to stay, stay on the talking point that is they have developed. particularly since the revelations by mccarthy last week that, you know, she's in a better position now to make the case that all of this talk about e-mails, all of this talk about benghazi is really part of a political cabal and having said that, we complied, we were consistent with the regulations that the administration put in place to keep that narrative going because she doesn't have to reprove or prove a bigger issue for the democrats. this is her home turf. so she's, you know, one sense she is talking to the home team. although a national audience will be watching. i'd say to her, hold your ground on where you are and don't add anything new. don't give the media anything new to talk about on that topic, especially. beyond the debate. >> she i

diverse and elevate their own black candidate and we seen that in the example of herman cane and michael steelernc. so i think for carson, a race does come into play here in terms of his appeal among many republica republicans. he's number two in some polls on nipping on donald trump's heels but they also like the fact that he doesn't quite go there in terms of talking about race and in terms of a grievance and talking about a structural racism that doesn't get into the weeds of race and racism. >> he's very popular indeed among republicans and almost all national polls among republicans and key state polls, he comes in second. sometimes relatively close second to donald trump, the republican front runner right now. guys, thanks very much. to our viewers, please be sure to catch don lemon later tonight 10:00 p.m. eastern when he anchors "cnn tonight". >>> the first democratic presidential debate five days away and bernie sanders is warming up for his face-off with hillary clinton in an unconventional way. more on preparations for the big debate hosted by cnn. a lot at steak. >> he does and the

first michael steele, from the rnc chair, who won tonight?at hillary stood amongst her rivals in a big way. in many respects, she just moved herself further to the left. she tried to prove her as a progressive to make sure that she created that distance between her and burning and basically say to the base writ large that, hey, it's okay. i'm one of you too. i don't think that will sell in large number. she did what she had to do tonight. >> let me go to howard. we heard a couple things. you heard it from me, which hillary stood up against a left wing purity. i do believe in free-market. i do believe in middle size business and the american economy benefiting the american people, benefiting for the market system. we don't need socialism here. pure socialism. at the same time it was said tonight that she effectively co-opted to the left because she said, basically, i am not so far from bernie to be going to bernie. >> i'm not sure i agree with that. here's what i think happened. >> which part? i think you are adversarial. >> i think that hilla

so previewing the debate for us from boulder, chuck todd, michael steele, and ayman javers.ates to go after them because it seems as if third place is where somebody like a bush or a rubio really wants to be tonight. >> look. i think there are a lot of subplots. trump-carson is the big one but this is ben carson on a topic he's not talked much about, doesn't have a lot of meat on the bone with the economy. with our friends at cnbc, these aren't going to be what will you do about the economy questions. these are going to be, okay, governor kasich, xyz on the economy. i think it's a different type of test. i know there's some expectation it's trump versus carson but i kind of think it's carson versus the topic that's going to be a fascinating plot. obviously, how does trump handle things and when you have a debate that includes dronald trump, the story is about donald trump at some point and subplot is jeb-kasich-rubio thing going on and vented some frustration about sort of how this has again over the last week, particularly bush an kasich. it seems there is an air of deprags
