Nominee. and you kind of wonder if theres another shoe that drops, if there are more revelations, if that debate tomorrow night is even more of a disaster than the first debate, what will paul ryan do? because, i mean, what you are seeing right now, and you have been reporting all morning has been, you know, something very, very close to a breaking point, a jailbreak among republicans who just do not want to be associated any longer with donald trump. >> yeah, were hearing this from republicans ...

Even they arent quite sure, it seems, where the campaign is going to go from this point. i want to listen to some comments here from two cnn political commentators who also happen to be trump supporters. >> it was hard to hear those words today. its inexcusable. i think the statement was not enough. i think donald trump needs to humble himself and come out to the american people and say im not the person i was 11 years ago. im a different person.. im not that person and i think that he needs to ...

National politician on issues like this in a way she maybe hadnt before, when she was first elected governor of south carolina, but she stayed out of the spotlight. when the confederate flag issue came up, she stepped to the forefront, found success and continued it with the speech last night, being that politician willing to say hey, i am going to put my foot down, say this is not something we should be talking about. she has personally experienced when she was campaigning racial slurs from som...

Donald trump was helping in the attacks. an update said the cruz campaign gets in touch with us to say we are seeing changes in polling around the birther issue. i view that as an attempt by the cruz campaign to try and get some of the right wing media folks to help them out on this issue and maybe, you know, try to neutralize it a little bit. the reality is its something that many of those commentators whether its rush limbaugh, ann colter, or others have been quiet on this. and theyve been oth...

Facts, you had a lot of people saying this is another bit of proof that iran doesnt respect president obama, doesnt respect the united states. even had big shot commentators joe scarborough saying enjoy this, iran, in a few hundred days you wont have the president to push around. then it turns out they probably went into the wrong water space. iran released them quickly, and even gave them their boats back. which under international law they may not have had to. >> i thought it was interesting t...

Back into a race and religion issue. ive been through those fights. we want to move america forward. having said that, there are other things other presidential candidates have said. and when i see something wrong, i say it. >> has ted cruz said things? >> if he did, i would say something about that. but i have disagreements. jeb bush passed common core. marco rubio believes in amnesty, which i dont. theres lots of things. but i will say tone matters, message matters and responsibility matters. ...

Lets go to casey hunt. hay lees speech sparked backlash. jeb bush said he was proud of her delivering an uplifting response. not everyone felt that way. >> not everyone did. i got to tell you the conversation were having now is a big part of the reason some of these conservatives are going to come out. i think some of this backlash keeps building. you had ann tweeting about the same. trump should deport nicki haley. laura inc. gram, these other types of commentators. >> what stupidity? what? >> ...

She was singling out? >> in some ways this was pretty remarkable. dont forget the speech is carefully crafted by people on capitol hill. its not as though she would have not had sign-off on these words that she had last night. and for her to really kind of put her foot down a little bit into this presidential race, thats a striking thing to have happen in one of these responses, especially because she in many ways dispatched with president obamas speech right away at the top of her remarks and t...

So a lot the discuss with the political panel today, a i want to bring in political commentators donna brazile and alex castellanos. and donna, if you look at the numbers for secretary clinton, and beyond the headline figures tlshg is data in here worrisome, and maybe more worrisome for hillary clinton as to how committed voters are as to sanders and clinton. and how many of them say they are committed, and for sanders, the democrats view him favorably 70%, and 73% for hillary clinton, and how w...

Argument, at least this poll. >> interesting. athena jones, thanks so much. as part of the final push to the first primaries, the candidates are campaigning hard. for trump, that includes a return to late night. hes heading to the "tonight show" with jimmy fallon. you remember the last time, right? >> guess its time to go out and talk to that dopey goofball gypgyp -- gjimmy fallon and give him the biggest ratings hes seen. how is it going to go? >> itll be class y. >> its going to be fantastic. ...
