Aligned for you at 202 7488003. You can weigh in online as well. We have a poll at facebook. Com cspan. Send us a tweet this morning. We will get your calls momentarily. A look at how its playing on the union leader this morning. Rubio. E rocks reporting this morning saying republican rivals hit senator marco rubio with a barrage of criticisms about his readiness to be president during the final debate before the New Hampshire primary on tuesday. A moderator of saturday nights debate keyed it up for Chris Christie did it for rubio to defend his time as a senator. Wet becomes about should all rally around joe biden. Governor christie looks to build on rubios surge. He argued rubio had not been involved in any consequential decisions like governors had to confront on the job. A look at 70 back and forth from last nights debate between Chris Christie and marco rubio. [video clip] i think the experience is not just what you did, but how it worked out. Under Chris Christie, they have downgraded nine times in their Credit Rating. This country already has a debt problem. We dont need elect someone visits. That running up and destroying the Credit Rating of the state. Lets dispel this fiction that barack obama does not know what he is doing. He knows exactly what hes doing. He is trying to change this country. The once america to become more like the rest of the world. We want to be the United States of america. Thisim elected president , will become once again the single greatest nation in the history of the world, not the disaster barack obama has imposed upon us. I do want to bring in governor bush. Excusing. Excuse me. It was incorrect and incomplete information, and then he memorized 25 seconds speech that is exactly what [cheers] marco, the thing is this. When youre president , when youre the governor of the state, memorizing 32nd speeches we talk about how to Great America is doesnt solve one problem for one person. They expect you to plow the snow. They speculated the schools open. And when the worst Natural Disaster in your States History its you, the expected rebuild the state which is what i have done. None of that stuff happens on the floor of the United States senate. Its a fine job, but it does not prepare you for president of the United States. Your state got hit by massive snowstorm two weeks ago. They had to shave you any going back. Shame you to going back. This notion that barack obama doesnt know it is doing is not true. There it is. The memorized speech. Thats why this campaign is so important. This is an important point. We have to understand that we are going through. We are not facing a president but doesnt know what he is doing. The shame is the would actually criticize somebody for showing up to work, plowing the streets, getting the trains running on time when youve never been responsible for anything in your life. And you want to go back. The fact is i went back. Second, is that the skills you get as a you nice state senator . Esp . He told everyone he wasnt going to go back and attache and him and going back. And when he decided to go back he criticized a young lady. Gets very unruly when he gets off his topics. [laughter] its not a talking point. Host and more coming up from last nights debate. 202 7488001 four republicans. 202 7488000 for democrats. For independents, 202 7488002. For New Hampshire residents, 202 7488003. A couple of tweaks coming in. Won when they noticed he said abc had stacked the audience with rich lobby donors. Some of the thoughts on twitter. Lets go to the phone to hear first from michael in new york. Democrats line. Caller good morning. I watched the debate last night. To me, my opinion of the whole scenario is its a clown show with republicans. They are not putting up a sustainable candidate to begin with. They are not going to win this. I think hillary is going to take this handsdown. Host do you think she will limiting after primary . Win the New Hampshire primary . Caller i think she will go all the way. I have not seen one of these candidates, mr. Christie or any of them, they are not coming up with problems that need to be solved. They are talking about just talking points. We need to have candidates that care about what is wrong with the economy, things that are going on in our world today that have more importance that Hillary Clinton has been stepping up to the plate to take care of. Host jim from tennessee. Also a democratic caller. 80 you think came out on top . Caller i watched this. I have either heard or watched all of them. I believe trump won. Me go into this a little bit if you dont mind. Im a democrat. Ive been a democrat my entire life. Ive never voted outside the Democratic Party to be honest. That is probably going to happen. It just depends. Andillary is the nominee, lets say its hillary and trump, i will vote for trump. And one of the establishment candidates, then i will vote for jill stein. If it is bernie host what party is jill stein running for . Caller the green party. I said a moment ago i hadnt voted outside the Democratic Party but i guess thats not true. I voted for her the last time. If its Bernie Sanders against anybody else on the right, i will vote for bernie. I really only have one issue im looking at. And that is kind of on for me odd for me. Andhe social safety net Social Security. Ive been on your working my entire life. I drive a truck. I have been working my entire life out here. Ive been paying into Social Security like all these baby boomers and donald trump has, out and said he will not touch Social Security. That got my vote right there. Bernie sanders, i think hes a little bit shaky, but i will vote for bernie because at least he does care for the social safety net. I will tell you this and i will tell your listeners, and dont listen to me but check it out, bill clinton has done more damage to the working people in this country than anybody i know. Host jim is on our democrats line. We good of her beer, massachusetts. Susan, if you like in the race in general . Waffling am actually between senator sanders and mr. Trump. I think who won the debate last night was Carly Fiorina. I was kind of uphold and saddened that she was not allowed on the stage. She pulls better than christie polls than christie and bush in iowa. I think his antidemocratic and its an insult. I am not one of her supporters but i admire her tenacity. I think its an insult. She has had her skin of the game now for over two years. She has a huge number of supporters in New Hampshire. I thought it was antidemocratic. I reached out to everybody. I even emailed emilys list. Women should stand up and support other women in the process. You can go on the attack later. Its really upsetting to me. Host susan reflecting a number of comets about Carly Fiorina. Carly fiorina spend a lot of yesterday and the day before not just complaining that actively tweeting and speaking with reporters about her being left out of that abc news debate. Here is one of the tweets. I see now with a didnt want me on this stage. All talking points. No leadership. Lets hear from the republican line next in elizabethtown, kentucky. Caller thanks a lot for cspan and thanks for taking my call. I think trump one last night because he didnt won last night because he looked a little president ial. Hang on just one second. I want to make a comment all of America Needs to hear. It does not matter who wins the presidency, i just want an american to win the presidency. 57 Million People may have put you in the white house, but 54 Million People say they dont want either dont want either. I want something someone who will bring the country together. Without new york and california, democrats would never be in the white house. Republicans without texas in the deep south in florida and virginia, you would never be in the white house. I just want an american president for a change. Host headlining the washington post, a rollicking Republican Debate brings cheers and boos. It was a difficult night for marco rubio. He showed himself in the previous debates to be agile and prepare a performer, but never faced such an onslaught from both christiana bush. Both are desperate to revive their candidacies or face the prospect of dropping out. Regret and newo hampshire after humbling iowa secondplace finish. He returned to the debate stage after skipping the last one in iowa. He ran into an uncharacteristically feisty bush, who lashed out at him over the Eminent Domain issue. [video clip] the difference between Eminent Domain for public purpose as donald says, roads and infrastructure, thats for public purpose. What donald trump did was use Eminent Domain to try to take the property of a nobody lumen elderly woman on the strip in atlantic city. That is downright wrong. Here is the problem with that. The problem was he wants to be a tough guy. I did not take the property. You tried. The woman ultimately did not want to do that. That is not true. To turn this into a limousine parking that for his casinos is not a public use. In florida based on he did. Approach. Better that is the conservative approach. Havelot of times you will it doesnt work very well. How tough is it to take property from an elderly woman . That is all of his donors and special interests. It is. Let me just tell you. You know who has the tickets . For the Television Audience . Donors, special interests, the people that are putting up the money. [boos] we have all donors in the audience and the reason they are me, theng me excuse reason they are not loving me is i dont want their money. I will do the right thing for the american public. I dont want their money and i dont need their money and im the only one of your they can say that. Eminent domain, the Keystone Pipeline you consider that a public job . Do you consider it private or public . Its public use. Its a private job. Federal and state courts he would not have that pipeline without Eminent Domain. You would have massive its easy, you would excuse me, you wouldnt have massive factories without Eminent Domain. Host you can send us a tweet at won lastout who nights debate. The democrats one. Marco rubio is not fit to replace president obama. He is a lightweight. I say ted cruz. He was articulate and knows the laws of the constitution. The gop debate was missing one thing. Ideas to fix the country. It was like watching a barroom brawl. They wouldve done better if a woman had been included. Is the line for New Hampshire voters. We get to emmanuel in upper marlboro. Caller thank you very much for taking my call and thank you for cspan. I think a missed opportunity occurred last night and mr. Trump puts forth the idea that he made 6 million for the veterans are taking off of the last debate. Nobody challenged him on that because he had a major project in front of them that i would equate it any state culture that had a project and one to go off and do community service. That is essentially what he did when he left iowa people hanging over there to look at him and to interview him and to see him put forth his best foot. He cut them short because of the fact he had the fox news network. Nobody brings that up as it relates to this is the type of person we want at the helm. I think that shows poor temperament for anybody to take time away to go do something he wants to put forth that is a good, admirable thing to do. At the same token he has a major assignment in front of him and nobody is asking him if thats the type of person we want, level up that will just up and jump and go. Poor temperament. Im surprised none of the other candidates bring that up, nor do the media bring that up. Host lets hear from florida. This is glenn on the democrats line. Caller how are you doing . Debate and i think Chris Christie won. I think what they are not paying attention to his they are so busy watching the sideshow, youre not paying attention to the fact that your governors are the ones that probably have the most experience because they actually do real world work. They actually understand how government is run. I know jeb bush. His legacy is not going to get him into the white house. His brothers actions for the last eight years when he was in office. The governors are the ones that have the experience going forward. Youre looking at the sideshow, the fun and the cars. These guys dont have experience, especially trump. He is fond of watching entertaining but i dont see him as commanderinchief because he does not have the temperament or the experience. You want to put a real estate business mogul in charge of the country . Come on. Think about this for a second. This guide is not have anything at all that he would need to run for president that your said desperate to have a republican in the white house that can defeat hillary, your keeping those guys live in relevant. He just doesnt have the goods. Host it is two days until the New Hampshire primary. We are asking to hear your thoughts on who won the debate last night on abc. All morning long as the you about New Hampshire politics. Real clear politics keeping track of the latest polls. Their average through friday of who is ahead in the republican race. Looking specifically at their rolling average. Fromr average of real clear politics has donald trump up by 14. 3. Marco rubio at 16. 4. Cruz at 12. John kasich at 12. Jeb bush at 9. 1. Chris christie at 4. 9. Carly fiorina at 3. 9 and ben carson at 3. 3. That average through friday is not reflect last nights debate. Lets go to the republican line. Ohio and cheryl. Caller thanks for having me. I love cspan. It was waiting on the republicans . I cant really say. The debates dont seem to prove anything. They give them half a minute to say something. Slamk Chris Christie that would last night but rubio makes a good point about obamas incompetence. Hes dangerously slide and he has done his agenda. Its not an american agenda. The American People have such a short memory that they would even consider putting Hillary Clinton and the in there sickens me. She will finish us off. She has done all kinds of things. I dont believe for a second they said a chance. I want to have independence. I want to be able to work. I think everybody else does too. I want the constitution to be upheld as a swear today. She is no different. They say she is really experienced. Shes held a lot of titles. She bill clinton was office was trying to overcome him so she can be acting like president. And democrats hate her for that. Try to overstep her own husband. I think we are in a lot of danger if you put her in there. She will already attack the second amendment. Violence the dangerous is not in the hands of the lawabiding citizens. Guns are killing people every day in america. Thats too bad because we are all americans and yet some people are not important to them. Lets hear from lisa next who is from kansas city, missouri. Democrats line. Caller i been a democrat for over 60 years. But i watched the debates last night and even though rubio did not have a good night last night, what he has been saying out in the town Hall Meetings and all the different places he has been an talking, i like his ideas. I like what he has to say. We have a talker in the white house that is all he has done is talk. He has not done anything. I think rubio will put the country in order. I think he will help us to be successful. I think we will have a country that gets back on its feet. I like rubio. Im going to vote for rubio after being a republican for over 60 years. And that is my comment. Host one of the issues that ben carsons campaign i should say ted cruzs campaign has been trying to shake his last monday nights Iowa Caucuses and the fact that ben carson had indicated he was going to head back to florida and the Ted Cruz Campaign made some hay out of that announcement. Here is how the issue was handled last night during the debate. [video clip] then is a good and honorable man. Then and candy had become friends. He has an amazing life story that has inspired millions, including me. When this transpired i apologized to him then and i do so to him now. Ben, i am sorry. Let me tell you the facts of what has occurred. On monday night at about 6 30 was notrted that ben going for mileage enhancer or South Carolina. He was taking a break from campaigning. They reported that on television. Said itlitical anchors was highly unusual and highly significant. My Political Team saw cnns report breaking news, and they forwarded that news to our volunteers. It was being covered on live television. At the time as i would the caucuses i was at the caucuses. I knew nothing about this. A couple of hours later i found out about it and was told that ben was unhappy. I called him that evening because the respective highly. I did not region that evening. I reached in the next day and apologized. He said ted, would you make this apology in public and i said yes, i will and i did so. I regret that subsequently cnn reported they did not correct that story until 9 15. From 6 30 until 9 15 that is what the end was reporting. Cnn was reported. His campaign put out a statement said he was not suspending his campaign. I wish our Campaign Staff
