FOXNEWSW The Kelly File February 3, 2016

Last night, the men and women of iowa sent notice across this country that it will be decided by the grassroots. Its going to be decided by the men and women here in this room. The header is winner of the night, marco rubio. Trump, humiliated. How come the person that comes in third on many of the networks is being covered like its one of the great victories in the history of politics in this country . Vote for me, because if im the nominee, we are going to beat Hillary Clinton and it wont be by a flip of the down. No state demands more of your candidates than New Hampshire. The role you play is so important. Tonight, well be joined by marco rubio to ask him about his strong showing in iowa. And well ask governor Mike Huckabee about who hes endorsing after he bowed out of the race. Tony perkins is here to talk about ted cruz, the evangelical vote, and South Carolina, which is right after New Hampshire. But we begin with dana perino, who is cohost of the five, and mark tiesen, former speechwriter for george w. Bush. Lets talk about what trump said today. He doesnt like the Media Coverage with respect to marco rubios third place finish with respect to his second place finish. He did make an admission saying he thinks skipping the debate hurt him but he would have done it all over again. Thats ridiculous. He basically said i was able to raise 6 million for the vets, so i would trade first place for 6 million for the vets any day. He admitted the fox debate probably cost him iowa. If he had shown up, he could have won iowa and raised 6 million for the vets another night or just written a check for 6 million. Donald trump missed an opportunity to take ted cruz out of the running, and it was a mistake. He didnt show up for the last job interview, so now ted cruz comes into New Hampshire with momentum. And thats bad for donald trump. Does he have a fair point when he says, why is everybody talking about marco rubio like the Second Coming when he came in third. He came in behind me. First of all, he came he said ted cruz barely won iowa. He came within 1. 2 of being third place. So he barely won second place. Second of all, the reason second is a loss is because he was leading. The reason third is a win for rubio is he came from behind. He gained Something Like eight or nine points to get up to 23 . So thats the reason why everybody is talking about marco rubio, because donald trump fell in the polls and marco rubio rose dramatically. I said moments ago, dana, New Hampshire is a totally different ball game. And trump is way ahead there in the polls and the electorate looks almost nothing like what we saw in iowa. In iowa, you have one of the most religious states in the country, and New Hampshire is the most secular. So donald trump, when he says that he is disappointed in the press coverage, he raised expectations so high and what i saw him do at the end of the night last night is lower expectations going into New Hampshire. I still think he wants to win, but he realized that was a mistake. New hampshire, these are a lot of independent folks. They call it that for a reason. What you saw, i think the other reason theyre talking about marco rubio, is after the debate, megyn, thats when we knew a lot of people would still change their mind and thats why marco rubio was able to climb those 8 to 9 Percentage Points to get to third, almost to second. Thats why he has momentum going into New Hampshire. I think he will probably place first or second in New Hampshire. Wow, lots of big predictions. Now hes fourth or fifth. New hampshire, dana, is a much more competitive state for the socalled establishment candidates, whatever you want to call them. Its rubio, its jeb, its christie, its kasich. And theyre all, dana, gunning for rubio right now. Hes been taking a lot of fire this week. I think theyve probably had to anticipate that. But New Hampshire is very practical. In all of the polls, hes the only republican able to beat Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire in a general election matchup. So, okay, but Chris Christie didnt get that memo. Because hes already going after rubio hard, mark. The problem for rubio, as we saw with cruz last week at the debate, when you stick your head up, you get whacked. When you do well, the other candidates thats my interpretation of what theyre doing. The question is whether rubio can sustain it. So far hes run this gentlemanly campaign where he tries to obey reagans 11th commandment by not going off fellow republicans but its about to get ugly. And hes going to get it from the trump and cruz, the outsiders, and hes going to get it from the establishment candidates, because hes really not an establishment candidate. Think about this, he was the guy who ran as a tea party insurgent against the establishment candidate to get to the senate seat. He has one of the most conservative voting records. Hes not an establishment candidate, but he appeals to moderates because he has such an optimistic message. So hes probably the only candidate that can straddle the establishment and the outsider lane. The outsiders want to take him out and the establishment guys want to take him out. The reason is because hes so strong against both of them and probably against Hillary Clinton because thats the candidate they worry about the most, someone who can unite the Republican Party and go after her. Speak about the importance of these next few days, because what were learning about New Hampshire is the reports say the voters there are fickle, fickle, but thats not what you want in a voter. You want loyal. You want fickle and the Chicago Tribune reporting today that well over half of the gop voters there have yet to make up their mind. So theyre there for the getting. So all of the candidates are going to be there for several days. Theres a very important thing happening saturday night. Just like last week going into iowa, there is a Republican Debate on saturday night. And im assuming that all the candidates are going to show up to that because they dont want to make that mistake. For somebody like john kasich, he could make a strong stand in New Hampshire. Then theres this question where do you go from there . Marco rubio, i heard from a congressman thats supporting him that said, marco rubio almost surprised himself last night, and so if he can now do that step change into being one of the leaders of that pack that you just talked about, kasich, christie, jeb, he might do very well. But these next two days are critical because people havent made up their minds. Half the electorate up for grabs. Thank you both so much. And breaking tonight, fresh off his better than expected results in iowa, senator marco rubio is here to talk about his chances for New Hampshire. Plus, new details on the secret to how senator ted cruz scored his big victory. Tony perkins will join us on that. And how Hillary Clinton pushed some sanders supporters a little too far, when we come back. Ill look back over the years of my involvement in the very first job i had, and i know i know now the 1 selling brand for frequent heartburn.

If i am our nominee, and i will be our nominee thanks to what you have done here in this great state [ applause ] when i am our nominee, we are going to unify this party and we are going to unify the conservative movement. [ applause ] when i am the nominee, we will unite our party, we will grow our party, and we will defeat Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders or whoever they nominate. [ applause ] that was republican president ial candidate marco rubio last night after surging in the iowa caucuses. He tied donald trump when it comes to number of delegates. Ted cruz will get eight, trump and rubio will get seven and he scored 23 of the vote well above projections. But it isnt iowans senator rubio has won over. Conservative radio Rush Limbaugh was praising the senators conservative credentials. Listen. Speaking from i dont like this idea that marco rubio is all of a sudden being labeled as an establishment candidate. I know that rubios got the baggage of that gang of eight bill, and i know that in many peoples minds hes got the baggage of wanting to grant the current number of illegal citizenship, i understand that. But marco rubio is no moderate republican centrist. I dont see marco rubio as anything other than a legitimate, full throated conservative. Nobodys pure and nobody is ever free of making mistakes. Joining me now, republican president ial candidate and u. S. Senator from florida, marco rubio. Congratulations on your performance last night. Thank you. We felt great about it. And its good to be here in New Hampshire. Were excited about New Hampshire, as well. Do you agree youre no moderate centrist . I have as conservative of a record as Anyone Running for president. The difference is i have a conservative record but i can grow the conservative movement. We cant just win with the people we have now, we have to unify and convince more people that conservatism is the right approach for america. Ive done that and will do that. Were going to go to people struggling under student loans, the single mothers struggling paycheck to paycheck, the hardworking families who are living the way i grew up and we are going to convince them that conservatism is the right way forward for them and for our country. As you know, one of your competitors took a shot at you, governor Chris Christie, who is hoping to perform better in New Hampshire than in iowa. Heres what he had to say about you and your performance. Im not the boy in the bubble, okay . We know who the pboy in the bubble is, who never answers your questions. So when the boy in the bubble gets here, i hope you guys ask him some questions, because ims time for him to answer some questions. It seems to me that he should have to stand across from you and answer questions. Do you take offense at him calling you a boy, a boy in a bubble . I think chris didnt perform well. You asked me tough questions in the debate, others have. I answer tough questions all the time. You are very smooth. Your remarks last night were amazing. You were articulate, there was no teleprompter. Is that scripted or just how you talk . Thats what i believe. And obviously when youre running a campaign, youre driving a message. Why would i tell people anything other than what i believe . I believe this is the greatest country in the history of the world. But every generation has to do its part. If we have another four years like the last seven, we are not going to remain a great country. This is a time for urgency. I feel a sense of urgency about get thing right. I try to communicate that. Im about to do it here in New Hampshire and every chance i have to go on your show, i will do it. You always sit for the tough questions and you never complain, never once, even if we ask really tough questions. I want to ask you this, now that we got the marcomentum as they call him, you know who is coming after you guns ablazing. And youre going to be in his cross hairs. How are you going to handle Donald Trumps attacks on you . Well, again, weve dealt with that earlier in the summer. If someone says something thats not true or below the dignity of the presidency, well address it. But im not going to get off the topic of why im running. I didnt get in this race to fight with other republicans. Im more than happy to talk about policy differences. We do have policy differences and well discuss those. But i want this campaign to be about nominating the right person, a conservative that will unify the party, grow the conservative movement and win this election. Hillary clinton cannot be the president of the United States. Thats what im going to focus on. Were going to keep our focus on what matters here. There are still so very many republicans running for president. And i know New Hampshire has a way of being a clearinghouse for that. Let me get specific with you. Do you think its time for jeb bush to drop out . I dont think its time for anybody theyve been working hard. I respect these people that are running. This is hard. Theyre working just as hard as i am. They have right to see it through. I think its time for the Republican Party to begin to coalesce around somebody that can win. Hillary clinton attacks me five times for every one time someone else is attacked. They know if im the nominee, im going to win. So i think its time for voters to start coalescing. The candidates deserve to see this through. Youll never hear me calling for someone to drop out or make up rumors that someone is dropping out to get votes. What is winning for you in New Hampshire . No republican has never won the nomination without winning iowa or New Hampshire. But right now youre not poised to win New Hampshire. So what is winning for you there . I think the fist lesson about last night, voters are making up their minds late in these races. We did very well with voters that made up their minds in the end. This is a very unusual political year. You have nine or ten legitimate candidates running campaigns on the ground here in New Hampshire. So i think some of the rules that have applied in the past are not operative. I know this sounds perhaps a little simplistic, but my goal is to get as many people to vote for me as possible in New Hampshire. When this process is finished, well have more than half the delegates and will be the nominee. How we get there, i dont know if anyone can predict that. Theres been a lot of twist and turns. There certainly have. Great to see you, senator. All the best. Thanks for having me back on. The minute governor Mike Huckabee suspended his campaign, one big question was asked, and well see if he answers it with an endorsement, just ahead. Plus, ted cruz took iowa by storm. But can he repeat that in the coming weeks . Tony perkins, who has endorsed senator cruz, will weigh in on what to expect in New Hampshire and South Carolina, which is right after that. Thats when we come back. One of the things that were seeing in iowa but also New Hampshire and across the country is that old Reagan Coalition of conservatives and reagan democrats. Thats what it takes to win. Announcer a horrific terror attack in paris. Then, a brutal act of terror here at home. Its time for a tested and proven leader who wont try to contain isis. Jeb bush has a plan. To destroy them. And keep america safe. Jeb bush the United States should not delay in leading a Global Coalition to take out isis with overwhelming force. Announcer tested and proven leadership matters. Jeb bush. Right to rise usa is responsible for the content of this message. Can turn dinner time, into bonding time.

Like you do sometimes, grandpa . Well, when you have copd, it can be hard to breathe. It can be hard to get air out, which can make it hard to get air in. So i talked to my doctor. She said.
