and thank you so much for joining us tonight. you can follow me on facebook, instagram, twitter and the tiktok on jake tapper. our coverage continues with the strong laura coats and the mighty alisyn camerota as ahead off on this thirsty thursday to do what i do best, sit at my kitchen table and drink. >> i feel like we have to step it up with the superlatives. >> i lifted his car one time and im strong. one time. >> i dont need a sue perlative. im just -- i dont need hype girls. i don...

So only now is senator warnock spotlighting herschel walkers problematic past and i guess record or whatever he has said about abortion. so here is the new ad that senator warnock is now airing. >> herschel walker wants to ban abortion. >> theres no exceptions in my mind, i believe in life. if theres not a national ban abortion on right now and i think thats a problem >> herschel walker paid for an abortion for this then girlfriend. he supported her claims of the 575 dollar receipt. >> andrew yo...

Us were watching and saying, so more. he was taking the higher ground, michelle obama approach. this is a pastor. hes being respective. but by not being direct, it seemed like herschel walker was more genuine, more of an advocate in the way even though he hasnt said much about his policies or what hes going to do. i dont think the window is closed, but i think that that gap we saw at the debate had to initiate some sort of action after it. >> to your point, reverend warnock is more powerful bein...

Hit herschel walker as good as he couldve. he sort of pivoted away from his own policy of abortions instead of saying who knows what you did, we know that you have an absentee father. we know you have not been around for at least three of your children? >> i think to be completely real, a lot of us were saying and watching say more. he was definitely taking the higher ground, michelle obama approach. this is a pastor, he was being very respectful. but by not being, direct it made it seem as if h...

Reproductive rights is perhaps democratics biggest advantage in georgia and other races. >> i think hes trying to leave nothing on the table. they are neck and neck and surprisingly after the herschel walker reporting came out, he had the biggest fund raising period that hes had yet in his campaign. so i think the warnock folks we calibrated and said we do have to weigh into this. we cant let it get out of the headlines. this race is gonna be neck and neck, which i cant believe im saying, but i ...

A senate race. >> you know, i want to go back to georgia for a second because i know the other panel was talking about georgia and they played the ad from senator raphael warnock, but there was a different ad playing today and it was herschel walker with somebody georgia knows quite well. he is a legendary coach. here it is. >> hes not a, quote, politician. there is a need in this country. there is need in this state for somebody like her sschel walker. knowing him, the character that he has, he...

Said about abortion. so here is the new ad that senator warnock is now airing. >> herschel walker wants to ban abortion. >> i believe in life. there is not a national ban on abortion right now. thats a problem. >> but for himself? >> herschel walker paid for his girlfriend. he supported her claims with a $575 receipt. >> andrew, you have run for president. did senator warnock miss a window of opportunity when he could have been hitting him with this earlier? >> i think their campaign thought it ...

>> and were keeping the conversation going tonight, good evening everybody im laura coates in washington, d. c.. >> and im alisyn camerota in new york. this is cnn tonight. were here with our panelists across the political spectrum. one team here with me and the other team, the right one, in washington, d. c. here with me. and after we get started to look at two key states that people have been hearing about, when we havent been hearing enough about, and frankly its under the radar, but its stil...

Negative ad, you have this one. >> warnock closing negative, and walker closing positive, tells me about how each strategist views estate of their campaigns. herschel walker has 50 plus million dollars of negative ads run against him largely on the issue of character so rolling out vince duly who is a revered figure in georgia to compel the, struck me as a smart idea. the fact that warnock went negative on abortion after being on this topic for a few weeks tells me they are nervous. >> he went n...

Same thoughts it that the idea of what the ads and the timing of it is really telling about how the campaigns see their chances? >> definitely. i think as the panel here said it was time for senator warnock to put out an ad. but what andrew yang just told me is that you and i are completely missing the story in terms of where we should be focused. he thinks we should be focused on utah and the race between mike lee and evan mcmullin. he says thats the stealth race that we should all be paying at...
