Happens. >> and you make these cutoffs based on which polls you choose. investors business daily makes the cut and cbs/"new york times" poll -- >> what fox is saying is they chose when these polls specifically were in the field and the ibd was in the field longer than the cbs one. if you look at it that way chronologically it would be one of the top four. certainly when it came out it didnt have the sort of luster of a cbs news/"new york times" poll. the only thing id say about jindal, the jinda...

Sharm el sheikh. it was one big coordinated bombing attack ten years ago that did hit the resort town itself. did hit sharm el sheikh exactly. targeted or theist areas. remote detonated bombs. 88 people killed and nearly a dozen british tourists. that was ten years, 2005. this time last year, one relatively high profile group of militants in the sinai pledged allegiance to isis and calling themselves the sinai province of isis. that was about a year ago. and when that specific group immediately ...

Off. most people blew it off as bluster and wishful thinking. it was perceived as the group wanting credit to do with something they could not do with. they issued another claim of responsibility. they said it really was them. they bragged that they would never explain how they did it but they downed that plane. and you know what? the old cautions and caveats still remain in place. a group like isis and its affiliate in the sinai, they have every incentive to claim its their work even if it is n...

He doesnt really care any more, does he? because its almost the end of it. >> no. hes in the fourth quarter. hes feeling -- hes feeling very good about things. like georgia said earlier in your program, hes -- you know, hes probably going to miss this. hes probably going to miss being at the center of the limelight. he hasnt always enjoyed everything that comes with being president of the united states, but clearly hes relishing this opportunity to be out there and hitting republicans. his point...

Why? >> its a conversation i have been having with various isis militants who i u speak to for awhile now. its always struck me as quite curious that they have said they would welcome u.s. troops on the ground. i think first of all, you have to see this as bluster and bravo do above anything else and propaganda. but beyond that i do think they have a sense that a visible presence of u.s. troops on the ground in syria would be very polarizing and perhaps they are hoping that they can capitalize o...

Sort of coming out, if you will, left or maybe right field, is this budget deal in washington and the debt ceiling deal, et cetera, which is already vastly unpopular with the base of the republican party. that kind of thing can only fuel the trump campaign, because it says everything exactly about the insiders versus the outsiders. and i think we need to keep our eye on that as we go along and get into this next debate. >> do you think dr. carson is electible in a general election? >> i think he...

Iowa nice which where faith is so important. this is a guy whos been nothing but bluster, whos insulted everybody and their brother and mother and sister, and yet he has stayed on top. he has defied logic. iowa logic. iowa is notorious for being a late decider. sometimes people change their mind on their way to the caucus, or in the caucus room, itself. so, you know, i think we shouldnt read that much into the polls, but i do think that were beginning to see a trendline and the hot air come out ...

We will see if he can resist. >> junior before the debate. bobby jindal, george pataki and lindsey graham. >> the earlier debate has lost its appeal. >> its luster? >> obviously big names in there. people who could move up. the pack is still very close together. so, you know, jeb bush is not much higher in the polls than a lot of these guys are. i still think there is room for one of them to assert themselves. i doubt there is r. going to be as many watching that. >> we are the show before the d...

Ive already testified about benghazi. i testified to the best of my ability before the senate and the house. i dont know that i have very much to add. i will do my best to answer their questions, but i dont really know what their objective is right now. >> i dont really know what their objective is. well, thats powerful, if its true. welcome back to "hardball." that was hillary clinton on sunday before her upcoming testimony before the house select committee on benghazi. and amid charges of part...

Jeb bush obviously has been feuding with donald trump about this. so let me read to you what jeb bush just put out a new op-ed for the national journal. he said, lets be clear, donald trump simply doesnt know what hes talking about and his bluster overcompensates for a shocking lack of knowledge on the complex national security challenges that will confront the next president of the united states. jackie, what do you think of this feud? >> you know, when jeb bush is responding to donald trump, h...
