and you questioned me about itis another area in which i see confusion of the era you in the republican left partyparty of carles puigdemont as well prepared to fight the elections in december 31 and put up the elections in december 31 and put up as candidates all of those people who were in the last parliament? —— confusion? are you now able to accept that de facto madrid rule is the order of the day and you will play by the rules of madrid going forward ? play by the rules of madrid going forward? to answer your first question, yes that be the answer to the second question, no. but the two are interlinked, because if you are prepared to fight that election, you are doing it on the terms of madrid. your parliament, the one you say is legitimate, has been dissolved. the order of the election is coming from madrid. you are recognising direct role by taking their request to fight the election. that is the madrid line that is the argument of the spanish government. i am sure the spanish government. i am sure the bbc, which takes a neutral sta nce the bbc, which takes a neutral stance on this and prof

my guest is alfred bosch, a senior figure in the republican left party which was part of the independence coalition. have the secessionists scored a massive own goal? alfred bosch, welcome to hardtalk. hello. how are you? well, i am very well, i am wondering how you are feeling. would you agree that things have not exactly gone to plan since that unilateral declaration of catalan independence just a few days ago? well, the declaration happened, so up to there, plans worked. what we are trying to do now is something which deserves some respect, which is trying to cope with the wave of oppression that the spanish government is deploying in catalonia against us, among other people. well, respect, obviously, has to be earned. and i'm just wondering whether the people of catalonia respect leaders of their regional government who don't appear to have had any coherent strategy for the day after the big declaration. i think everybody here in catalonia understands, and i'm sure the world will understand, once it's explained, that we needed to have part of the government in catalonia not abandoning

likely turn out to be the strongest in catalonia and the very bizarre situation is that the republican left party the e.r.c. has nominated the ousted former. minister of the government of putsch demand to run as their main candidate so you have a situation where politicians who are running for the job in december are in prison and i think that certainly heats up this pre-election campaign very much absolutely and i thank you very much for that update you're welcome. tens of thousands have joined in a march and poland's capitol of warsaw that was organized by the far right the march took place on poland's independence day polish national have taken part as well as far right groups including some from across europe among the rallies organizers are several radical groups with roots in on t.c.m. and take organizations active before world war two observers say the march has grown considerably since it began in two thousand and nine. before more on this now i'm joined by journalist my gosh i cried in szczecin in poland so we see that right wing marches on independence day growing in poland why is that.

they say that thirty percent of the council on people will vote for the e r c and that's the republican left party who wants a known independent catalonia. could backfire but if the separatists are defeated decisively in december can we expect to see the end of the catalan bed for independence. there are no indications at the moment to give that hope they will be defeated as i said at the moment it looks like they will turn out to be the strongest party at these regional elections in any case we really have to realize that moron your. has not changed the political landscape in catalonia by imposing direct rule over this region and for sure he has not won the hearts and minds of cowtown and voters and how to people by these images of elderly people getting beaten up by the spanish police at the referendum first of october just by dropping a piece of paper into a ballot box so we will all stand by and see what will be the result but i don't think so that there will be any solution unless finally come and sans wins and both sides sit together and really try to find a political solution do you have th

on the contrary the are see the left republican party this party is demanding an own cattle on state they will most likely gain thirty percent at these elections in december and they might turn out to be then the winner of the election not with a majority in parliament but still the biggest party or the biggest a vote will go again to a pro independence party. now rally is healthy now after the cash ran elections the situation will normalize in the region where it really be that easy. i don't think so we have seen this in the pendants movement growing over years and years and now with this recent polls again suggesting another success for these political parties it will not normalize recoil is promising this in particular looking at his waters in the rest of spain he cannot cannot really use more political turmoil in the country but i think less both sides really sit down at a table the newly elected regional government and the central government. there i don't think unless they do this finally there won't be a political solution in catalonia. correspondent in spain. thank you for th

republican. he's ant a conservative. so the litany of people that are saying this, the republican party is not split. efb mcmullen left the republican party and the people that don't want to be on the side of moore and martin and trump are leaving the party. and that's fine, daus -- >> are you saying the same thing about the president? because remember the president didn't want roy moore either? >> he came around to him. i don't mind. you can have disagreements in primaries, but after a disagreement in a primary, which we had, we now have the "washington post" and the bezos and republicans dash you notice this is the same game that mcmull lessons pals did to trump. as soon as trump had the billy bush video there was a coordinated roll out where romney said oh, my gosh -- >> it sounds like you're chalk bone on here. do you believe roadway moore or the women? >> i believe roy moore because after 40 years and 40 days before the election you get a political hit? if you're remotely serious you have to first say what does this wm woman, she's got multiple bankruptcy, multiple false accusations, is any of that being recovere

i think about it i mean what's defined as left is anything that is to the left of the republican party and so when you talk about left media they're talking about things like vox or ross story you know what i consider the left right now has really emerged as sort of an openly socialist contingency that is opposed to american empire and that you know kind of spaces that's been created through bernie sanders candidacy has expanded massively and continues you know expanding the parameters of debate in shaping the contours of discussion but it's completely frozen out in so many ways i mean we've got this are saying american socialism is that ok that's a phrase that's that was so talk about that a little bit what does that mean well i mean bernie sanders obviously depicted a certain amount of this he's a socialist bernie sanders that's his party's so that he feels embodies a left wing ethos at this time yeah and really at this time it is an ethos i mean you see very little policy very few policy proposals or workable way. to actually and knock this and implement a socialist agenda so i mean

proverbially, thinking about that, when we look back, i wonder if this is the moment where, for republicans, the party left the airplane on the way to a devastating landing in 2018. and i just think the line is drawn. the die are cast. the forces of decency are against the forces of indecency. this is an accused child molester, credibly accused, by multiple women. what we're talking about here is a 14-year-old little girl. you saw the pain in the eyes and on the face of that middle-aged woman. this has been a defining event in her life. he's unfit to serve in the united states senate. this exposes a profound moral rot in the country, in the republican party. a great test for the citizens of state of alabama. we've reached the hour that george washington warned us about. a political tribalism that's so corrosive, so corrupting, that it could take otherwise normal, decent people that you'd encounter on any day, and make them defend the indefensible and the profoundly indecent. and it's a sad moment. >> you know, it's interesting. i've been seeing -- tim miller, a kind of "never trump" republican, but a repub

republicans would run a campaign, casting pelosi as a far left leader of the party. d, republicans have some less than popular leaders. >> this was a problem with hillary clinton, that failing to capture working class voters. they were excited about the wins in new jersey and virginia. but do you worry that they are over reaching. or excited considering the fact that they don't look like place like northern virginia. >> 2018. we're a year out. we have candidates who are targeted to their districts and states. we have enthusiasm with fundraising and organizes. and president trump's numbers are at an historic low. >> the incumbent party loses seats. we need 24 seats to take back the house. 23 districts, hillary clinton won those districts. it will not be easy or a slam dunk. but i think democrats have realized we need to fine-tune it to match the district. we have so much enthusiasm. >> they have been at least in the past good for republicans as well. >> what do you make -- >> i thought it was long since thrown. you talk about -- we'll see. you talk about, i don't think

unless they're just marginally better than republicans right it's like a kinder gentler republican party then there's the so-called practical or compromising left clinton have going into the two thousand and sixteen race establishment no question and a lot of the practical or compromising left. i certainly understand the appeal of saying let's start all over let's start with the all single payer. ok what's the idealistic going to get very very centrist group huge. it's just like me really. don't believe. all problems but the process is what brought me all the young people and c.d.'s and from the people of old clothes and to live on the good. man that ever told not to come over. me as much and bring sanders come along. who a lot of ways was the antithesis of hillary probably in some ways going to have a bad that he that resonated more often to city he had a much more force full and inspiring platform. from bold on apologetic platform and that resonated with. sandor seems to have revealed some of the inner desires residing within democratic voters . but the problem for party daters is how to reconcile that in the trunk there are . president trump

>> the right wing and the republican party seeks to control within the party. the leftwing of the democratic party seeks to control both make it almost impossible for people in the middle to talk to each other, to work together. consequently you've got this warfare and we see it in society today from the left and the right, extreme groups in the extreme groups. you've got the extreme situation deteriorated in the congress. people don't work together. they are more worried republicans on the right side have the guys in the middle. similarly on the left side, the moderates are afraid because the data primary against them. arthel: at the end of the day when they go to the voting booth and we will see what happens. senator d'amato thanks for coming in on this thanksgiving weekend. >> my pleasure. good to be with you. eric: thank you to my senator and arthel appeared in major airline is finding out a new way to board passengers and it's not flying. is a new sign of class warfare and it could be the new normal when they take to the skies? wait to see within a travel expert ex

prevent that far left wing from making it impossible to capitalize on republican missteps? >> i disagree that is something democratic partys facing because if it were -- let me finish. leland: there is not a challenge to democrats from the left >> if i could finish, you see a real challenge in michigan, a real challenge for claire mccaskill on the left in missouri, no such thing exists. the questions, are the democrats going to get a proper turn out to win in the general, like doug jones in alabama. there is no serious threat on the left real democrats. that would be -- on the primarys. leland: you hear a lot of democrats always talk about how they have to protect -- >> claire mccaskill in missouri. >> too far to the left. >> in michigan. leland: you are entitled to your opinion. the polls say something different. another panel discussion coming up. laura: donald trump responding to the deadly mosque attack in egypt, what he is hearing about terrorist ideology and the path to defeating it coming up. topped steak & twisted potatoes at applebee's. now that's eatin' good in the neighborhood. theratears® uniquefer from the el

republican. look, i don't want to -- the problem is if everyone everyone would like me would leave the republican party, what are they left with? that's what i worry about. i don't identify with the democratic platform. and being an independent means i don't get to choose the primary candidates. that's where we are. roy moore was chosen in a primary. i don't want to give up the opportunity to do that. at in virginia i can choose either ballot. a lot of people don't have that choice in their state. >> i read your op-ed in the alabama political reporter, and it was scathing, to say the least. you talk about whether or not there is a muddy bottom for the alabama republican party. maybe there is no rock bottom for the alabama republican party, maybe just the mushy mud on the bottom of the river and they keep burrowing deeper into the muck and filth. but what really caught my eye that said, a couple of county chairman said that even if they had hard evidence that moore did commit sexual assault, this is jerry pough and william blocker, even if they had proof, that they would still vote for him over the democrat. >> stunning, r

republican turnout tonight. >> in the march primary, thousands of democrats left the party just to vote for trump. >> i am takingcan ballot. i'm supporting trump. >> they are relating to a billionaire. >> voting for trump. >> from day one, i have been for donald trump. >> you excited a base of people the same way obama did eight years prior. you brought out people that had never voted before. >> this is where donald trump has tried to sell, hey, the factories are closed. i'll rip up napa. >> in mahonen county, compared to 2012, there was a swing for trump. in mahoning county, the trump was 30 points. >> i wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. ♪ >> bill almeshi was one of those disgruntled employees in trumbull that voted for trump. he didn't want to admit it, but desperate times called for desperate measures. >> millions of americans are about to lose everything. it's not right. it's just not right. >> he had been used to a middle class life, earning a good living in the nearby steel mill. but in 2012, the mill shut down. >> your livelihood, your whole way of life just taken from you. >> the almeshis lost th

is there any shame left in the republican party? >> i can answer that, no.o democrats win this seat? >> we have a very good candidate down there. alabama is a tough state for democrats. doug jones is a good middle of the road sensible candidate. he prosecuted members of the ku klux klan. he's a centrist democrat who is supported by the party. but i really think this isn't about whether or not we win the seat. i hope we do. i'm a partisan democrat. >> it's a battle, not the war. >> but the real is, are we really at a place in our politics where one of our two major political parties says you can have sex with a 14-year-old girl when you were a district attorney and be our candidate for the united states senate? i hope if it was my party, i'd be speaking out against it. i give great credit to the republicans like you and michael speaking out against it. but that's a moral principle. this isn't like a political question at this stage in the game. >> how disorienting is it to sort of be in a climate -- i was out last weekend in pennsylvania talking to trump vote

does it do further damage to what is left of your beloved republican party?, as i've said, i think it's potentially cat trophic because, you know, if roy moore gets elected -- and i think that's certainly possible -- then all the republican party is going to own this at least indirectly. and going into the 2018 elections, you know, think about the consequences of that to have roy moore be at least partially the face of the republican party? and then it challenges the republican party, are you going to take a stand or are you going to rollover like you have for the last year, and, you know, was this just a big bluff? and i don't think it's going to be a pretty picture. >> jonathan, the way they have garage banner on a laptop computer and maybe the next application may be a political ad. if that existed every could make the roy moore ad tonight on their laptop whatsoever. what application will this have, do you think, in real terms to 2018 when the entire house of representatives comes up? >> i think what's got to be very frightening to washington republicans i

republican establishment players like mitch mcconnell trying to even have a new election, and that that is actually helping moore? >> it is. it is the two together, the establishment and republican party and left-leaning establishment media, trying to demonize and get rid of roy moore, hey a lot of accusations and criticisms of him i agree with, but you know what? alabamaians don't want to be told how to vote. neil: no one does. no one does. i think you're right. >> we're seeing all over the country. hey, democrats didn't want to be told they had to vote for hillary clinton. that is why bernie sanders had won the nomination if not for superdelegates and horrific manipulation that donna brazile and others were involved with, and entire party was manipulated by the hillary clinton campaign. nobody, whether you're in left, right, in the middle, likes for establishment people in this day and age and media telling them who they have to vote for. that is something every politician of every stripe needs to take account of. i do wish we were talking a lot more about tax reform. neil: right. >> and things of that nature. that is a heck of a lot more important, is getting that, getting that passed, fran

were liberal republicans, there were conservative democrats. 1968 was the end of liberalism, the death of liberalism in the republican party, and it was the emergence of a insurgency on the left side, the liberal side of the democratic party. and so those two forces have taken more and more and more power in each party, to the point now where we do not have any liberal republicans and we do not have any conservative democrats. and so the formation of what is now our politics all began in 1968. there are characters and events that occurred in 1968 that inform our politics today. roger ailes was brought into politics by richard nixon in 1968 to work on the television piece of his campaign. and george wallace's campaign manager told me last year that when he listened to donald trump campaigning, he was hearing george wallace when george wallace campaigned as the segregationist candidate as an independent in 1968. all the same rhythms, all the same appeals in his rallies to the same kind of voter. and so much of what we saw last year in that campaign was born in 1968. >> yeah. i want to read a short passage from your book if i may speaking about the '68 election. you write that i

pat buchanan left his republican home for the reform party where none other than donald trump is threateningnation. and the story that rivaled the presidential race -- >> so the answer is yes, i intend to run. >> hillary clinton made her senate campaign official facing off with new york mayor rudy giuliani. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com >>> we have to ask ourselves when was the last time we talked about race with somebody of another race, and if the answer is never, we're part of the problem. >> go home. >> it's like a bomb. we're sitting on a bomb. >> you can have a black person killed with a video, then this is what you'll get. >> this is a revolution. >> should people be frightened? >> i think people should wake up. it's 1991. wake up. >> we have talked at each other and about each other for a long time.

get confused on that to tell you the truth what do you make of the republican party today has it changed significantly since you left. philosophically. i think it's changed because the democrats have changed and the country has changed and i think the problem is that we are now bankrupt the debt is unmanageable if interest rates go up it will be a total calamity so they keep keep interest rates very very low in this will keep the economy in the doldrums in spite of wall street doing well there is still the division of the distribution of wealth which i think is the major source of the social friction which it which is going on so the republican party has changed like the democratic party because they're looking for power but they have absolutely no houses because they are still supporting the prevailing attitude to people generally have supported government to take care of me from cradle to grave take care of all my medical needs take care of mall my educational needs take care of all the bailouts and the rich get to write the rules and they get the bailouts first so but this is coming to an end and i i don't think

those of us in the give a damn party whether it's the left wing, the democrats, or the right wing which is republicansare some of the other kocsis, green party, they give a damn party needs to really start getting a damn. because we could wind up, look at turkey right now. that was a democratic republic 20 minutes ago. so you know, there's a reason for us to tap down on some of the rhetoric. you know, you just can't respond to the most extreme a great stuff from other psycho matter what side you're on. even the most extreme interest stuff coming from the white house. it's not, it's really not wise. i get beat up by a lot of liberals because they see on tv and i'm trying to have an intelligent conversation with people they disagree with. don't forget, i'm a father. i'm a dad. my kids are nine and 13. when i am on tv, on the east coast, it's late at night but they're on the west coast most this time. they get a chance to see on television. i can't be on television screaming at people, cutting people off, treating people badly and then tell them to be nice to each other. it doesn't work. it doesn't work.

left to the people of alabama. he talked about the importance of the seat remaining with the republican party and says it's too important to have a democrat take it. congressman john conyers admitting he paid a settlement to a former employee but denies it was because of sexual harassment. another woman is accusing con years of sexual harassment earlier this year. the border patrol not handling the report of the agent's death and the injury to his partner with him in a professional and open manner. the fbi says they are investigating the death as a quote potential assault end quote. but they aren't ruling out some reports that the agents and his partner fell into a nearby quul vert. what -- nearby culvert. so what did happen and why isn't the border patrol open about what happened in the death of one of its agents. the president and his family are in mar-a-lago for their thanksgiving holiday. but before he left the white house he addressed the media. >> he totally denies it. he says it didn't happen. you have to listen to him also. he said 40 years ago this did not happen. reporter: making his first public comments sinc

year-old man molesting -- >> if you're a republican, why not say, i still want the republican party, you know, to win in the end, just not this guy? >> i mean, the left is -- >> there are people within the party who donald trump has unleashed who just want to see people like you and me and you suffer and scream and say what is wrong with you. they like that we're freaking out right now. they like that they can vote for donald trump and roy moore because it makes us upset. >> i'm not freaking out, i'm not suffering. i care about the people of alabama, a state i've never been to. but to president trump -- >> to them, they view that as suffering. and how we're actually talking about it. and how we're outraged that he wants to date a 14-year-old girl and possibly forced himself on her. >> here's the silver lining for those of us not suffering, maybe we have shined a light on a part of the country or community that allows this kind of behavior. because those 14-year-old girls and the girls who turn 14 tomorrow and next year and the year after that, they're victims. what we're doing today maybe will change that going forward. because that is perverse. >>>

and, you know, just as the tea party sort of came in and fractured the republican party, you look at all the passion on the left now, and you wonder if a similar sort of thing isn't looming for the democratic party. the democratic party establishment. these parties have proven over the decades to be enormously resilient and adaptive institutions. and so you have to assume that at some point they get their acts together, but that's not tomorrow. that's not next week. >> yeah. >> we're in for a bumpy ride. without the parties, it's hard to govern this country. >> gentlemen, thank you for your time tonight. eugene robinson and steven smith. thank you for coming in. as we've been saying here, president trump and speaker ryan sounded triumphant today unveiling their new tax plan. now they've got to get that through congress. more on that when the 11th hour continues. >>> we're working to give the american people a giant tax cut for christmas. we are giving them a big, beautiful christmas present in the form of a tremendous tax cut. it will be the biggest cut in the history of our country. it will also be tax reform,

mainstream republican in the dictionary, or the encyclopedia, you might find a picture of ed gillespie he is very much a preacher of the republican party. the criticisms i've seen from some on the lefthe is a white supremacist are patently ridiculous. but that grew out of the fact that he made confederate statues preserve them to in place an issue and so on. the ms-13 gang and all of that, social issues perhaps, historical issues, but not the mark of a white supremacist. but i think, when you look at this, this was not a race that figured very well for the republicans to win.el on the other hand, if you are donald trump and you look at this, i supposed trump supporters will say he didn't give us the 100% trump agenda or platform, but he pretty much did. on the issues, there was not much daylight between him and donald trump. he didn't personally embrace trump. the thing that a lot of people forget here is that when youngao look at the republican party and what it has basically stood for over the last quarter of a century and more, it has been basically the agenda that trump has embraced as president. the legislative agenda. the regulatory agenda, and thele national security agenda.

there are some fiscal hawks remaining in the republican party in congress, though not many left. and then, of course, issues on the more moderate side about what stripping out the individual mandate will do to health care premiums and how that increase in premiums could actually out -- wipe out any benefits they get from a tax cut. and you're already looking at five senators that could bring the bill down, because they only -- they can only lose two. but senator flake, he has -- senator -- i mean, the president has a personal beef, obviously, with senator flake, who has been extremely critical of the president. very out in the open about it. wrote a book about it. and subsequently could not get re-elected in a primary in arizona, because of it. but it was funny the way he described it. like he was purposefully caught on an open mic. and we know that senator flake has said everything he said on that mic in public already. so it was -- it was -- it wasn't meant to be an interview. in public comments. but it's not inconsistent at all with what senator flake has said. and it's someth

the last three campaigns campaigns and they've been brutal campaigns from the left and the opposition and the republican party have brutalized roy moore in many, many different ways and i'm not trying to cast as persians on anyone because i don't know any of these women even though i live in the neighboring country i've never heard of any of these accusations. i support roy moore because he's been exactly the opposite of what these folks have said, and he's been a man of character and a man of god and he's been a man that stands up and says i will fight for you and i will do a, b, c, and d for you and he actually does a, b, c and d for the people and the political class doesn't like that and they don't like that, and there's not just a swamp in washington, d.c. and there's a swamp in alabama and our capital, too. and he was a victim of swamp politics when he was here twice as the supreme court justice. so that's what i can tell you. i can tell you why i support roy moore and i can tell you that since the allegations have come out -- >> yes, of course. all politics is local, but this has national implications

republican party. going way to the left. we never see anything quite like this. on't know where either party is going to end up. we know the american public are fed up with the establishment. trump is popping into that and bernie sanders is plugging into that. neil: too early to tell. thank you. could he see you. >> good to see you to come and kneel. neil: the tax reform stymies wanted to asset not a biggest deal as some thought. could there be a general sort of distraction among the republican base including high income folks who say alright, maybe we just don't feel like writing checks. we are not going to vote for democrats, but we are bummed out because we're not getting what we thought we would get out of this tax cut. foster freeze on all of that. what you think it'll be sort of like a protest of silence. what do you think? >> i think i would be a huge mistake and part of republicans prism of our friend, but that's not a very savvy approach. if you want to get these things passed it's a very simple answer. you just get more republicans and said i should be o

having left behind a political maelstrom affecting both parties. republicans and democrats soul-searching tonight as they come to grips with unfolding sexual-harassment scandals. for top democrat john conyers, facing allegations involving a second accuser, democrats reportedly stopping short he stepped down. conyers is defending himself in a statement that sounds remarkably similar. congressman conyers, a michigan democrat says "about the accusations he's facing that's what equally important to keep in mind in this particular moment is the principle of due process. "and those accused of wrongdoing are presumed innocent unless or until an investigation establishes otherwise. we have team coverage about judge roy moore. and the allegations facing top democrats here in washington. chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel will have the latest developments from capitol hill but we begin with ellison barber. good evening. >> president trump isn't quite often but he was when it came to roy moore. in fact, trump's only comments came through his press team until

mcconnell said the parties exploring whether another republican could have a successful write in candidate if moore left the race. >> after passionate debate, one bay area city decides to make a decision about whether another gun store can open in town. >> the raiders moving to las vegas. new stadium. if that isn't a case for impeaching and removing a dangerous president, then what has our government become? i'm tom steyer, and like you, i'm a citizen who knows it's up to us to do something. it's why i'm funding this effort to raise our voices together and demand that elected officials take a stand on impeachment. a republican congress once impeached a president for far less. yet today people in congress and his own administration know that this president is a clear and present danger who's mentally unstable and armed with nuclear weapons. and they do nothing. join us and tell your member of congress that they have a moral responsibility to stop doing what's political and start doing what's right. our country depends on it. really? really? really? really? really? see zero in a whole new way. get zero do

republican party. if indeed bannon put everything on, he left the white house and said mission number one is alabama. get rid of luther strange, get ray moore to be the nominee. if ray moore implodes as nominee, i don't know how the bannon strategy is going to continue to have a lot of followers if indeed he's proven mcconnell point that you are not necessarily putting the best candidates forth. that seems to be exaggerate the internal republican party divide going forward. >> and if i could adds, david is 100% right. one other thing about national republican branding in this. that john thune quote that you played a minute ago is very revealing in that he says essentially, he's asked how could this hurt the national republican party. and he says, no, if moore does the right thing and steps aside. so the counter of that is if moore fights this, you have this fight day in, day out. you have questions every republican senator will be asked before now, they'll be asked every day do you support roy moore, should the republican party try to withdraw his nomination? creates for a party that is already reeli

the party's voters are basically at polar opposite ends of the scale with republicans being much further to the right, democrats being much further to the leftthe democrats have a similar kind of split, and it's also generational. you know, who's gonna head the party? hillary clinton or bernie sanders? you get the point. the wings of the party. for the republicans, that's the big challenge. you hit the nail on the head. the voters down here in the philly suburbs, the republican voters tend to be more moderate, they tend to be more culturally liberal, which is a huge issue, they tend to be, you know, in favor of things like immigration. they're on healthcare, they're not as vehemently opposed to the affordable care act. you go out into the western part of our state -- how about the rust belt notion here? >> it's different. but he got them last year. how did the republicans get them back by midterms? >> they have not lost a large portion of that working class vote. what's going on -- what's going on is that the democrats are much more exhilarated. now, make no mistake about it, in the 'burbs, the republican voters have been shifting over time,

enthusiasm on the left with democrats, obviously every midterm, we see an increasing influence from clinical party who is not on the white house. when you have that on the left and the republicanse going to want to have something they can point to. >> if republicans get tax reform done, how long will it take for small businesses and american taxpayers to feel the results, good or bad. >> is going to depend on the language on the bill, if you get a pass by the end of this year or perhaps some things have to get taken into next year but it will also depend on whether or not things get phased out or whether or not they have delayed implementation. at the end of the day, maybe while it will be easier for republicans to point to and say look what's on the way if they have something pass than it is to say we tried and were still working it out. arthel: democrats are mobilizing. do they have a comprehensive tax plan that is beneficial to small businesses and corporations in the middle class. >> they argue they do but they don't have control the house of the senate so it doesn't really practically matter. they are beastly have their positions and they have things they believe would wor
