This is -- we're too arrogant. >> well, the political rhetoric got nastier and more personal this week and it all started with donald trump on "snl." >> well, first of all, thank you for not asking me what i said in the tenth grade. i appreciate that. >> ben carson claims that when he was a kid he tried to stab another kid. so, now he's found himself in the very unusual position of having to say, yes, i did, too, try to stab somebody. >> you could call this anything you want. but if i become president, we're all going to be saying merry christmas again. that i can tell you. maybe we should boy...

A really good point. cnn's reporting, for example, did not say that he did not stab somebody. it said we've not been able to corroborate or find anybody that witnessed this or can verify it. he is sort of conflating it there to his benefit. i actually think that he had a generally pretty good answer to it. i'll take a contrarian point of view, though. i think carson might have benefited from staying part of the story. we had a few days where he was dominating news cycles. he was going up against the mainstream media, liberal media bias. i think it was helping him. and last night, because fox b...

Probably politically segatious to wine about the liberal media bias. i think that's the last refuge of a losing campaign. think what dr. carson might have done is rather than have an adversarial or hostile relationship with the media for example would be when someone says, hey, you've claimed that you attempted to stab somebody, we can't corroborate that, we can't find anyone that remembers it happening. if dr. carson -- you don't have to expose that person or publicize them, you can put them together with a journalist on background and corroborate that. i think he would have been better off i...

This is beginning to backfire because there seems to be in the minds of some, including me, is there touches of a double standard here? >> yes. this is a whacky space to be in, where you got him saying no, i really did try to stab somebody, i really did, and that's what it's come to and i think a lot of his spearers especially his supporters recognize this bias, and this double standard, however strongly they perceive it and certainly i think in terms of what happens on tuesday night in the debate, it's going to be interesting to see how the moderators address this issue, whether they fall dow...
