inside interviews even call her a liability to the dnc. sources telling politico she's used meetings with donors as a way to solicit for her own political action committee and that she tried to get the dnc to play for her wardrobe during the 2012 convention, allegations she denies. now we're learning the obama administration dropped plans to replace her in 2012 and that her relationship, though, with president obama has soured to the point where they do not speak with each other anymore. >>> back in 2012, las vegas billionaire sheldon aidleson shelled out $100 million to help elect republican candidates like mitt romney and now is making his first major contribution in the 2014 midterm psych wael a $10 million check to karl rove's crossroads gps. >>> what do you think of this? a city in washington state passed an ordinance banning people with bad body odor from the park and other places. the aclu says it's unconstitutional because it singles out homeless people. >>> a hair-raising appearance between obama and a school in tampa, florida, ye

i also want to thank the ceo of the dnc, amy dacey. give amy a big round of applause and to the co-founders of the women's leadership forum. >> that seems like an endorsement. is that enough to keep your job? >> no, not necessarily. the truth of the matter is, keeping your job at this stage may have as much to do with what comes next, or rather who comes next as who comes behind. if hillary clinton continues to, as i think she will, command the democratic party, then there will come a day sooner rather than later when she will decide who shall be the dnc chair and that's the person who will be the dnc chair. but it is a lot of inside stuff. i once asked my students if anybody could define what the dnc was. and a lot of the women looked a little embarrassed, like i was asking them about some gynecological procedure. but nobody raised their hand. so i don't think the dnc is a major force outside of washington and fund-raiser. and whoever the nominee is on either side always controls the party. >> yeah. but back there on capitol hill, tho

we're getting rid of a woman in the dnc doesn't help that narrative. did this have a whiff of the white house or her critics using politico? >> there are a lot of critics and they all willingly cooperated. i think it was nine pages long. it was a hit piece with lots of sources from the cooperation that didn't like her. does anybody in the country care about whether the dnc chairman is on the outs? this is a true inside the beltway story. it's a spec tack to see her credit side like this over and over again in print. she probably is on the way out. but i don't think there would have been a time when we would have seen this kind of piece, this long, this lengthy. most of thely, people don't like her. >> i think the chooe and immediate effect of which is to make it such that the person being recorded on across all media outlets thereafter is described in battle. i thought it was a fair ooçspie. if you look at the number of quotes in the piece, they are evenly distribute d between on the record quotes and blind anonymous quotes. the actually lead says dws

they have consistently outraised the dnc. there are legitimate concern with people who have some angst. >> the white house is saying she hasn't raised enough money. they say she wants clothing and she's a prina donna. >> we see the same thing with sarah palin, it's often a gender-based is asalt. ultimately she's been a great leader. >> it's not gender-based. i would argue there are issues where it's gender based but there was a starkly different relationship with tim caine and the white house and josh burj and the rnc chairman. >> the staffers are so willing to go to -- >> people in the white house -- >> it's also an ex-first date. >> hang on, let me get newt to explain the whole thing to us. >> first of all, it's fair to say reince priebus in august raised 40% more than debbie wasserman schultz did. there's a certain amount of money different but a couple big things here. one, she, you know, nobody in the white house staff can say, gee, our syria policy is not working our iraq policy is not working, our ukraine policy is not

it is a brutal article about her and she is trying to get dnc money to pay for her wardrobe and often out campaigning for herself because she might want to move up in the leadership after she leaves the dnc as party chairman and move up in the leader of the democrats in the house and she has very poor relations with members of the dnc and members of the white house and members of the congressional delegation and other than that popular. and did this come from the white house or underlings or congress and the answer is yes, it came from all of them. >> interesting, too, to think about the thinking of appointing her to that position, president obama wanted to make sure that he maintained good relations with women and jewish americans. >> i think the women thing was very important. in 2012, obama was running and the democrats were about the war on women. and they are doing it this time and the woman the face of the democratic party made a lot of sense. but if you believe this article and i must say talking to sources today, it hasn't worked out the way they thought it would. >> chris wal

>> she's the chair of the dnc through 2016. we've got a great relationship with the white house. she's going to be appearing on stage tomorrow with vice president biden, president obama -- >> you read the article -- >> is there no fact to that article? >> look, washington -- you got all sorts of articles that come out of washington. debbie wasserman schultz has been a tireless advocate. the same is true today. we're moving things forward. we're part of a great team along with our counterparts in the white house, to make great gains -- >> peter, if i can just say, i never a degree with her on anything but she serves -- as a party chairman, she's a working moth, she's out there in congress. what they are doing, throwing her under the bus, if they don't like the job she's doing, they should ask her to step down but treating her this way is not something that should be done. >> i have a feeling we'll be doing this again before november. thank you so much. coming up, ukrainian president poroshenko ready to make his pitch for more u.s. assistance in the fight against russian rebels. de

she has denied this, but the piece says she tried often to get the dnc to buy her a wardrobe. she is so disliked in the white house, the story says, she's cut out of the strategy meetings there. it says the white house had a replacement in mind affect 2012 elections, but never acted fearing wasserman schultz's appeal to women and jewish voters. today the white house and the senate majority leader stood by their embattled party leader. >> debbie wasserman schultz is my friend. i'm always so impressed with her appearances on television. she's television. but the ultimate decision regarding her is made by the president of the united states. >> and the white house today said the president has strong confidence in here. the dnc says this election cycle she helped raise more than $120 million and her accomplishments speak for themselves. >> i don't know if you ever interviewed4l her. hive had a lot of toe to toes. you used to watch me on "fox and friends" probably remember the interviews. i invited her to come on "the real story" a lot of times and she says no. good report. thank yo

it turned controversial when the head of the dnc said this. >> scott walker has given women the back of his hand. what republican tea party see what scott walker is doing they are grabbing us by the hair and pulling us back and it is unacceptable. >> her remarks quickly sparking outrage. overnight the congresswoman issued a statement that barely acknowledgeded what she said doubling down her attack on walker. quote i shouldn't have used the words i used but that shouldn't detract from the broader points i was making that scott walker's policies have been bad for wisconsin women whether it is mandating all the trau sounds or rejecting federal fundin health speaks for itself. >> he reacted on fox news radio. >> it is a sense of any one who understands that political battles are nowhere like the kind of trials and tribulations that real people go through in our states across the country. >> democrat maryberg walker's opponent said it's not the type of language she would use. >> heather? >> marianne rafferty, thank you. >> apple making major security changes on the heels of the massive l

piece i was doing on campaign financing for clothes, and she was saying for campaigns the democratic, dnc does not fund anything. when you're on a campaign, clothes, they just don't pay for it. so in this instance, yeah, i agree she shouldn't have gotten payout. when you're on a campaign and even if you're -- charles: no, but she represents the entire party. >> it doesn't matter. i think she shouldn't get an allowance. she makes enough money to go ahead and pay for clothes and, by the way, you can get clothes that look great -- >> she's awful. she's more than mean. charles: she's mean, she's a mean person. >> let's call a spade a spade here. part of the reason you get an allowance in certain industries is they want to control what you wear. so if she wants the money, then the dnc all should be able to say this is what you have to ware to represent us. i don't think she wants to go there. >> listen, we'll give you clothes, but we have to change that geri curl. [laughter] charles: maybe she forgot the do rag. >> i agree with you there. >> one point we need to brick out is -- bring out. char

. >>> dnc chair woman debbie wasserman schultz says she shouldn't have used the word she used to describe wisconsin governor scott walker policies. one day ago quoted by the milwaukee set nall journal for saying scott walker giving the back of his hand. that is stark, but reality. comments made in milwaukee at a roundtable discuss on women's issues. >>> a free woman this morning arrested for civil disobedience at a fast food protest with constituents yesterday. speaking with chris hayes last night and explained why she doesn't regret her actions. >> it is just not fair in a $200 billion fast food industry for government to have to pick up $7 billion in costs to subsidize these corporations when they could paper their workers more. >> and later tonight, president bill clinton will be in the sunshine state stomping with democratic nominee for governor charlie crist. no shocker he's helping fellow democrats. in 1988 when krist was running for u.s. senate, had shattered the confidence and trust of americans and should resign from office. and that is your morning dish of "scrambled politics."

they're all talking about her clothes, she wanted the dnc to pay for ) that the we were not supposed to talk about women that way. the we were supposed to respect women. >> i respect many women in public life. she challenges that. >> why? >> she is a disaster. she is not ready for primetime, breakfast tv, to a mtv. she was picked because she has contacts with donors, from florida, which is a key state and, frankly, what is hurtful to her is this is her own party leaking about her basically saying you are going to be the scapegoat. she is being set up. >> interesting. harry reid chimed in. that is not a ringing endorsement saying that dnc is not up with the president that being said, there are apparently some blast things of hillary clinton and the secret e-mails. how do you feel about as we head toward the election about hillary clinton? she has not made a formal announcement. some say that see is just -- a presences to saturated at this point and there is nothing left to pull out of the back. >> well, the thing about her is she has the clinton machine behind her. on the other hand s

this dnc chair is quite something. you should know, she has apologized for those amazing statements. what are your thoughts? >> i think she apologized for words she use but said it not detract from the point she was tryingo make. my thoughts are that, they are trying to do what sort of worked in 2012. they were able to hammer todd aiken with this and problem is scott walker is not a nail. lo a good way to put it. the m greets a lot of hammers. he has been hammered in every quarter by democratic party, labor unions. angela, what do you think? >> when you don't have policy to stand on, lou, you create a message, b the war on wom won't work now. it will backfire on her, have you domestic violent victims that have come out against what she said, that is why she apologizeed. if no one came out they would have used that because it worked in 2012 but not now. lou: a lot of attempts and fits and starts that democrats seem to engage in. whether it is playing race card or it is the wor war on women, l this nonsense. it is not --

then vice president biden and former secretary of state hillary clinton speaking at the dnc form. >> here are a few of the comments we have received from our viewers. >> president nexen and his resignation -- the only thing that i was hoping to watch was the super sabre restoration, that first supersonic jet fighter. no big deal. that was interesting. if it was supposed to be the super sabre, i am hoping they were show that again. will show it because it did not get shown this morning. anyway, looking forward to seeing that, but this weekend -- c-span3, so many good shows. a show called the benghazi hearings on c-span three. i have no way to receive it. i don't have a computer. anyways, the fact that there is no embassy of any description in libya. how come that is not being addressed? what are you make that a topic? i think this and is our favorite station to we can't get c-span3. i morning if you could tell us how you get to do that? we are calling because at 10:00 there is supposed to be a show on c-span3 which is the hearings, but we can't get c-span3. we feel this is a very impo

since then a lot of it you can see it big piece how she is not doing her job at the dnc. then all this outpouring how she is great and she even defended herself on twitter. without this? >> i read all the reporting and i think it actually makes president obama look worse than debbie wasserman schultz. he is running a centralized and insillery administration. they don't make or keep friends with the democratic party unless they are donors. she was not a hand picked leader from nancy pelosi or others. she earned the respect from other democrats worked from the membership up. any elective that runs the democratic national committee is going to have their own pac and keeping their eye on their own political future. that is absolutely par for the course. i think it actually says a lot about this white house that they wanted to heave her in 2012. they should have and they didn't. >> josh ernest issued the most tepid endorsement of her sorry that reminded me of a classic story about chairman of the chemistry department at a major university who stricken and hospitalized and rece

what was it, the dnc chairwoan was talking about? she had to aplogize. but the rhetoric was inflammatory. >>hey backed down every time that the democrats get up in their face. but in things like job security and national security, open borders undermine both of those things and that is something that reallymatters for national security. just today here we are on national civil rights day and what do they decide to do? they sign signed a deal with mexico saying tt we are goi to protect mexicanworkers. and this is what is really on the minds and hearts o american women rght now. lou: thank you and congratulations on the book. we recommend it highly. on sale online at bookstores everywhere and david said, i predict obama will end up with theowest approval rating of any president since world war ii. we will take note. and dave says elitist irs revelations. they are not merely corrupt but a crimal enterprise. thank you. coming up at the top of the hour, stick around for neil cavuto hosted by neil cavuto. i wonder if that's where they got the name. coming up n

and my take, why dnc head would bring domestic violence all in a political attack. all in the top of the hour. nfuare like a lot of us here in america, so many of us have been we have good news. researchers unveiling the cancer drug. it is up to 140,000 a year. and doctor in the research institution, you have treated hundreds of patients. pzone drugs, what is the outcome you are seeing so far? >> yeah, we have had the great privilege of having exciting new therapies at sa ra r cannon. and had an opportunity to treat 600 patients with these drugs in different types of cancer. lung and melanoma and bladder cancer. >> and what is thend how are things looking for the patients. >> the studies are still in progress and early results and they are exciting. we have been seeing remarkable success story. and using the patient'sy@ own immune system and not putting chemo therapy that comes with more toxicitty. they are affective and safe at controlling advanced cancer and patients are hopefully enjoying good qualities of life. >> this is in clinical trials and not fda approved,

what was it the dnc chair woman talking about scott walker. she had to apologize for saying he had given the back of his hand for women. the rhetoric is inflammatory and the republicans don't have a response. >> they don't. and they back down every time that the democrats get up in their face. but on things like job security, national security, open borders is something that undermines both of those things. that's something that really matters to women, job security and national security. open borders now, just today here we are on the national civil rights day and what does the american government decide to do? sign a deal with mexico saying that we're going to protect mexican workers, legal and illegal. wait a minute, what are american workers? this is what's really on the minds and hearts of american women right now. >> dr. gina louden, great to have you with us. >> a pleasure. >> congratulations on the book. we recommend it highly, "what women really want." you'll be shocked. on sale online at book stores everywhere. >>> david tweeted me i

look, gretchen, the dnc chairwoman has a long history of inserting her foot into her mouth. in 2012 the democrats conducted focus groups to determine and measure the various success and effectiveness 0 their surrogates. she scored last. she earned the moniker dead last debb debbie. this is a vile attack but i's not a surprise considering the source who traffics in this thoughtless, mindless, hand fisted effective. >> it's offensive on so many levels. but here's what she said about wasserman shuts's comments. >> i am offended and insulted. i think the remarks were absolutely hideous and the motive behind them were despicable. you know, it's guesting, guy, because other people have come out and apologized fer her comments in the last 24 hours, but not the congresswoman. will she? >> i don't know. she's not much -- she's not really one for apologies overall. but you look at the way that she tried to frame this. this is an attempt by the democrats and her in particular to shut down debate. she's not interested in having an honest conversation about scott walker's record in wisco

they did outraise the dnc, but overall democrats remain ahead by $75 million. independent expenditures by outside groups are what really rile up reid, especially the koch brothers, who have pledged to spend over $200 million this year, but reid's super-pac is also one of the biggest planning to spend $146 million by election day. it hasn't stopped reid. >> sonar republicans are addicted to koch. >> but in the ten senate races, liberal groups have outspent conservative 97 million to 79 million, giving democratic candidates an outside spending advantage in 7 of the 10 races receiving the most outside money. overall there are hundreds of outside groups likely to pour nearly a billion into campaigns. a final accounting will surely shatter records, likely to show both parties are about equal. >> i think the democrats have realized these are the rules of the game, as much as they profess not to like them, they have to play by them. i think they have a lot of big doonors stepping up to the place. >> it calculates that liberate outside groups have spent $146 millions,
