i thought this was interesting in terms of likability and not likability. ben carson has surged in terms of likability. 0% of the people polled say they don't like him. he's up by 19 is his net. ben carson the most likeable coming out of this. p the least likeable person in this whole race is, well, take a look, donald trump. negative 37 on least likeable. his net is also way negative as well. my question for you, doug, is it more important at this point, six months before iowa to look at the top numbers in the poll, who's leading, who's not? is it more important to delve into the data and look at likability and figure out that trump has a huge underwater spread? >> that's a great question. john and i were talking about this in the greenroom. voters are shopping around for candidates. four years ago herman cain was probably leading the republican field. right now there's a real hunger and appetite for what donald trump is saying and he's really tapping into some emotions that are in the republican party and also outside of the republican party. i think you

>> for many people, likability is more important than the issues because likability comes first. it's the first thing that you see before you are willing to even hear the issues. if you don't like someone you're not even going to hear what they have to say. you have to like them first to then have your open ears to hear the issues. >> very interesting. let's talk about donald trump specifically, then, with that in mind. starting with he is an equal opportunity fighter, those are your words. what do you mean by it? >> well, some people say, ah! war on women. he is against women. war on race. he is against race. it's not about race. it's not about gender. he is an equal opportunity fighter. take a look at all the people he has fought with. it doesn't matter what your race is, what your religion is, what your gender is. there are example after example of that ranging from a comic such as seth meyers to him getting annoyed with other people, whether it's a woman, a man. equal opportunity. he'll even fight with other politicians. he'll call them stupid. he said that the mayor of bosto

on the question of who is most likable, clinton got 24%, sanders got 40%. can bernie sanders beat hillary clinton in new hampshire? >> i think he can. i don't rule out that he beats her in iowa. there is a certain momentum now. i think her attacking him will not be effective. there is a vulnerability to her. that does not mean she will be the nominee, but i think he can beat her in new hampshire. if on election day he is close, i think he could be carried over the top. >> there are voters who are torn between sanders and clinton. they like what he says. it shows up in the numbers that show she is away ahead of him and terms of winning the nomination. the party -- democrats like to fall in love, while republicans fall in line. >> i talked to two dozen democrats at this iowa dinner in cedar rapids, every clinton supporters said, my heart is with bernie sanders. the message discipline he has. the fact that there are a lot of people in the democratic party who find him more likable than clinton -- >> he is not a cuddly guy. they like that. that is dangerous ter

on the question of who is most likable, clinton got 24% sanders got 40%. mark, can bernie sanders beat hillary clinton in new hampshire? mark: i think he can. i don't rule out that he beats her in iowa. there is a certain momentum now. i think her attacking him will not be effective. there is a vulnerability to her. that does not mean she will not be the nominee, but i think he can beat her in new hampshire. if on election day he is close i think he could be carried over the top. john: there are voters who are torn between sanders and clinton. they like what he says. it shows up in the numbers that show she is away ahead of him and terms of winning the nomination. as the cliche goes, democrats like to fall in love, while republicans fall in line. mark: i talked to two dozen democrats at this iowa dinner in cedar rapids, every clinton supporters said, my heart is with bernie sanders. the message discipline he has. the fact that there are a lot of people in the democratic party who find him more likable than clinton -- john: he is not a cuddly guy. they like

dave is ceo of likable local. thank you for joining us. content is currency. how important is social media to a small business and how do you get started? >> social media is essential to small businesses because their customers and prospects are all there, pretty much every consumer at this point is using facebook, twitter, and linked in and small businesses have to join that conversation. >> what is likable local do? how do you help businesses do this? >> likable local has a set of page that makes social media super easy by automating most of the things that take a lot of time for small businesses. the problem is that most small business owners don't have the time to do social media. they're struggling with coming up with the time to run their own businesses. so our company and our software makes it much easier and faster. >> how can they adapt to social media and how can they know that it's really worth their time? what's the return on investment? >> well, you know, the first return on investment is that you're relevant and still in business. the best way to

she does not come across as someone who is relatable, likable, feels like she can understand my concerns, someone working an hourly or wage job. -- hourly wage job for health insurance and food. i do not think hillary clinton comes across as someone who has those solutions and cares deeply about those people. you have advised a lot of candidates, been a candidate, and under no circumstances have you ever encountered anything like the trunk phenomenon. how would you advise the other candidates to handle donald trump tomorrow night? >> i would say get your message out there. all these candidates have to convey their rationale for candidacy, policy priority or two, and a little bit about themselves, and they need to counterpunch if trump goes after them, but i would not advise them to go after trump. i think you have a very limited thent of time to convey to audience is something about you, your policy, and why you are to be the next president of the united states and why they should vote for you. if you waste time going after trump, that will burn up a lot of those minutes. if he goes afte

when you are likable you can get away with a lot of stuff. you can charm people. hillary clinton is not charming. she has come across arrogant and like she is doing us a favor and answer a few questions with. that doesn't work well with the press and voters. you see the numbers tightening up. if you look at jeb bush, marco rubio and donald trump, a tight race. this opened up the door for joe biden who is likable and will not need to be as strong on policy because he will charm a lot of people. >> maybe a charm offensive is what she needs. if you friends are talk about this what do you have left? >> and she is a big supporter. she needs to change the narrative she is not trustworthy. she desperately needs to change the subject which she has been doing the last several days. i said for weeks she needs to get out from under the issue and finally quit joking and i was hoping she would say i screwed up. i am relieved she is trying to get her arms around this in a sensible way and not try to pretend it isn't a big deal because it is a big deal. >> if hillary clinton can

dave is ceo of likable local. thank you so much for joining us. >> thanks for having me. >> content is currency. how important is social media to a small business? >> it's essential to small businesses because their customers and prospects are all there. pretty much every consumer at this point is using facebook, twitter and linkedin. small businesses have to join that conversation. >> what does likable local do? how do you help businesses do this? >> they have a free tool and a set of paid tools that make social media super easy by automating most of the things that take a lot of time for small businesses. the problem is that most small business owners don't have the time to do social media. they're struggling with coming up with time to run their own businesses. our company and our software makes it easier and faster. >> how can they adapt to social media, and how can they know it's worth their time? what's the return on investment? >> the first return on investment is that you're relevant and still in business.

gop voters say ben carson is the most likable followed by rubio. least likable trump leading by a wide margin. bob, what do you make of the trump phenomenon? >> i think george has it right. it's reflective of a primal scream attitude but as john kasich said in your debate, trump has struck a nerve. i think your poll in a way answers the question who is best qualified to be president and it's not trump. it's the traditional candidates and having spent too many decades trying to understand presidential decision making, it's really important. presidents make important decisions and the presidency is not a roulette wheel. if you look at trump, any time he talks, any number can come up. anything can come out of his mouth. i think people are entertained by that. i think it's got a gravitational pull on a certain level but to say we want to make this guy president, i suspect it's not going to happen. >> i have to tell you, george, this is really on my mind. i got a lot of e-mail about you and your somewhat unkind comments over the last couple of weeks abo

i think that likability is so much a part of this. >> trust. trish: trust, likability, you want to know that you can relate to this person. and i think that may factor. >> a balance. >> but these are self inflicted wounds. you've got to remember these aren't attacks from republicans. what's starting to happen now from thursday in the new york times and the media is going to have to monitor this more closely because the intelligence community is saying that national security was compromised in these e-mails. this is not about republican attacks. this is about self inflicted wounds and the democrats are not even having debates like the republicans, so it's not really a wide-open race. it's being paved, a path is being paved for hillary clinton, and joe biden going to upset that path. trish: stay with me. i want to talk a little bit donald trump here. the antihillary. he is anything but scripted and no matter what he says, he keeps gaining ground. he did make some headlines overtly weekend when he sounded off on taxes. fox business gerri willis jo

. >> he's very likable. i agree with that. i don't think i'm that bad. >> you are likable enough, hillary. >> thank you. >> i appreciate it. >> you don't believe senator obama is a muslim? >> of course not. there's no basis for that. i take him on the basis of what he says. there's no reason to doubt that. >> he said you take it -- you don't believe it. >> no, there's nothing to base that on, as far as i know. >> as far as i know. you are likable enough. i take him at his word. heading to the 2008 election, hillary clinton was the obvious and unquestioned front runner for the democratic nomination. starting in october of 2007, senator clinton led in basically every poll. she led in dozens and does ens of polls in a row by commanding margins, not just double-digits but some case over 20 points. out of the gate, hillary clinton ran as the candidate who could win the presidency and on track to win the nomination in poll after poll after poll after poll until suddenly she was not. on the eve of super tuesday with delegates from 24

carson is the most likable of the candidates, followed by rubio, when it comes to the least likable, here are the bottom four, trump, leading by a wide margin. bob, what do you make of the trump phenomenon? >> well, i think george has it right, it's reflective of a primal scream attitude, but, you know, as john kasich said in the year debate -- your debate, trump has struck a nerve. but i think your poll in a way answers the question, who's best qualified to be president, and it's not trump. it's the traditional candidates, and having spent two innate decades trying to understand presidential decision-making, it's really important. presidents make important decisions, and the presidency is not a roulette wheel. and if you look at trump, any time he talks, any number can come up, anything can come out of his mouth, and i think people are entertained by that. and i think it's got a gravitational pull on a certain level, but to say we to want make this guy president, i suspect it's not going to happen. >> i have to tell you, george, i was telling you by e-mail, this is really on my mind

biden is a likable person, hillary is not. not. biden went through the horrible experience of losing a child. he is america's slightly creepy but likable uncle. >> is mel's clavicle's. give them a good sniff. >> he does weird, vaguely creepyweird, vaguely creepy stuff and people chuckle and say, zero, joe. there you go again. >> it's as though we are discovering him for the 1st time. >> that is what is going on to his. he has not faced any scrutiny asis a non- candidate. >> he has run for president a loss twice. >> and that will come up like the plagiarism issue. he wrote those comments himself. >> great speech. >> superfund the 2nd time around.around. will we grow to save -- hate him? >> we will have more exposure to him. >> hillary's numbers were skyhigh when she resigned as secretary of state when she was no longer holding that appointed position people liked her, and she has only gone downhill from they're. it's like the stock market. it sounds dirty, and i did not mean to. i think the white house is behind this. the ones that

biden is likable. i'd rather run against hillary in a heartbeat. hillary is someone people don't want to like, she has so much baggage. biden's baggage is over 35 years long with national security, with bad decisions back in the wrong programs, but he's likable to the base, to dependents, and he's a dangerous candidate, and i see hillary as being the perfect candidate for the republicans to run against. >> he's like the ed mcmahon of the democratic party. [laughter] >> i think he's got a little bit of donald trump going because we do know he has been a gaffe master. when you're in a season of where bernie sanders and donald trump, people want them to speak honestly, maybe they'd like a little bit of that joe biden rawness. >> i think he could run into some problems. it would be easy to campaign against him if you say you like your part-time job, your static paycheck -- >> obama? yeah. >> the fact that you're paying more taxes than ever before, and the government is spending more than it ever has in past history, then you should go ahead and re-elec

people, i think, really find that likable. one interesting trend i saw is just a little bit he's moved down, there's been a space for senator ted cruz that's moved up, and that may be the people who are upset with d.c. people who may have more loyalty to the republican brand will start to move from trump to cruz, and i think you'll see him benefit from donald trump, if he falls behind or even if he surges ahead with the same kind of message that ted cruz brings. jenna: as of right now, as we know, donald trump is serving in jury duty. that must be interesting. we all wish we were there to see if he's actually chosen which could also add another twist to this story. phillip and christopher, thank you very much. >> thank you. eric: he'll probably just serve two days before he -- jenna: you still have to sit there. you've got to bring your ipad, figure out how to spend the time.

the most likable candidate wins. hillary clinton, to many people, radiates a solemn sense of entitlement and fury that she has to work for the nomination. this does not bode well for her. >> just quickly, because we only have a couple seconds left. >> i read the mull casey article also. but her common sense, that it seems reckless what she did. >> leave aside the felonies and prosecution her judgment suggests she's not qualified for the office she had or that she's seeking. >>> up next, our power player of the week, the man who keeps america's clock ticking on time. when you're living with diabetes, steady is exciting. only glucerna has carbsteady, clinically proven to help minimize blood sugar spikes. so you stay steady ahead. it's how i try to live... how i stay active. so i need nutrition... that won't weigh me down. for the nutrition you want without the calories you don't... introducing boost 100 calories. each delicious snack size drink gives you... 25 vitamins and minerals and 10 grams of protein. so it's big

. >> he's very likable. i agree with that. i don't think i'm that bad. >> you are likable enough, hillary. >> thank you. >> i appreciate it. >> you don't believe senator obama is a muslim? >> of course not. there's no basis for that. i take him on the basis of what he says. there's no reason to doubt that. >> he said you take it -- you don't believe it. >> no, there's nothing to base that on, as far as i know. >> as far as i know. you are likable enough. i take him at his word. . heading to the 2008 election, hillary clinton was the obvious and unquestioned front runner for the democratic nomination. starting in october of 2007, senator clinton led in basically every poll. she led in dozens and does ens of polls in a row by commanding margins, not just double-digits but some case over 20 points. out of the gate, hillary clinton ran as the candidate who could win the presidency and on track to win the nomination in poll after poll after poll after poll until suddenly she was not. on the eve of super tuesday with delegates from

i think this ad makes her likable and she is worried about that. she has been watching bernie sanders, people you didn't expect to rally crowds, bring people out. she is worried about people being disinterested in her campaign. >> do you think people are taking bernie sanders seriously? >> i think the far left is excited about him. i know a lot of people on the far left say if it is hillary i am staying home. i am not going out there because she will not make a bit of difference. she is trying to appeal to people across the country and this is her way of saying i get what you are going through because people see her as detached >> getting the message right before the gop put forth its candidate and soaks up the news cycle for a while. >> she is not just doing it because it is the week of the republican debate but she is vulnerable and does fear someone challenging her on the left. and to guy's point about the empathy numbers you cannot say on national television after four americans dead and you are in charge of security it doesn't matter how they

i don't think she is that skillful and has never been that likable. >> it wasn't remotely presidential yesterday. >> she knows she has to keep it together. she is going to try get through iowa. she thinks she did well at the dinner joking. we will see how it goes. >> she is not put together well. her campaign is falling apart. it is like they didn't put together at the start. they should have had a professional put it together. >> it causes divorces, remember? >> candidate on the verge of collapse. another top senate democrat announcing he is against a nuclear deal with iran. why he won't vote for it and if the deal has a future. and hillary clinton may want to watch out for the donald. look at the new numbers and what they mean for the candidates. and after the show, catch more from the web. greg will tell you about his hot yoga class but he will demonstrate them. tweet us questions and comments and tell us what you want us to talk more about. ugh! heartburn! no one burns on my watch! try alka-seltzer heartburn reliefchews. they work fast and don't taste chalky. mmm...amazing. i have

when it comes to hillary clinton, likability, 57% of voters said she was not honest or trustworthy. 52% said she did not care about major problems. is this a problem for her? guest: i do not think it is great. good points to what they need to work on as a campaign. in the big picture what is happening on the presidential level is the way demographics have shifted in the country, democrats have an advantage. it is hillary's race to lose. if she does, it will go down as one of the worst campaigns possible. this is a smaller story to the big picture. they need to address this. if you have 57% saying you are not trustworthy, they need to do something about that number. but i do not look at that and say she is in trouble. host: what do you think they will change? caller: probably not a ton. she is a well-known commodity from 1992. she has been a senator from new york, secretary of state. this is not a new person for the american public. once people make up their minds, numbers do not shift dramatically. would you like to see the number seeing closer to 50 overtime? host: would you question t

he would call it like he saw it, but was very likable. really coming from usc and playing for the giants, he had east coast covered, the good look next door kind of look and feel about him, well-dressed and appropriate. had a lot to do, i think with the growth of football. and a likable man. >> for many people, they really only know him as a broadcaster. but when you look back at his time with the giants, he did something that we don't see a lot of today he had loyalty to one team. >> that's true. all giants and still to this day loved big blue. play defense and offense, the flanker and running back position, half back at that time, receive, they became a star in that area. took ferocious hits going back historically before my time. he was hit hard and he kept on playing. part of the greatest game ever played in the late '50s with baltimore and the giants. he was in that game which grew a bigger national television audience and helped catapult the sport forward. so one of the great contributors to the game who i haven't heard -- some peop

-- >> i don't know likability but despite all of the problems he isn't always reliable. i think you could argue he might be a swap and might be a more substitute at but dropping a big player. >> potentially when it comes to democratic player joe biden could be a more progressive candidate he led into gay marriage and came out front, and meanwhile hillary clinton changed her position on gay marriage because she's running for president so biden could be a more authentic progressive to the primary base on the left. >> that's interesting we'll watch very closely now the issue has to be money, right where would joe biden get the money of course as a vice president, a great deal and charlie gasparino has been looking at that aspect. >> he has supporters on wall street and i know republicans on wall street that met him and a liked him. >> in delaware very corporate friendly state. >> i think couple of things would have to happen for him to be i think a serious sort of player and someone who is seriously can raise money. i there would be to be a further implosion of hillary clin

helping to establish a nice relationship and you will be more likable if you let it all out but there is this, you know, you have to control a little bit. you cannot constantly be unloading your stuff on your friends. >> people don't want that. >> when do you unload there is a way to do it. you don't want to come out there and start punching. >> you don't want to be like the character on the saturday night live. >> debbie downer. >> rachel as debbie downer. >> ♪ >> that was a great character. >> yes. >> is that is why you are single. >> i have a lot of fun though. >> on are you. >> yeah. >> okay g set this up for me because i've gone out to who is this big mac or a whoop are. >> that is the whooper. >> okay. september 21st, was supposed to be a big day. we knowberg are king and mcdonald's, they have had aberg are role for a long time. if you have seen mcdonald's is there not aberg are king far away. people have their favorites. berg are king made this proposal to mcdonald's. they said let's team up for world peace day. lets stop this burger war and raise awareness about world piece.

he has to emotor a quality that is likable. you can say what you will about ronald reagan. people liked vague reagan. you can say what you like about george bush. he was the guy that people want to have a beer with more than al gore. i think jeb's problem right now isn't sub stance. his problem is people look at him and they go -- >> you mentioned those that have come this far with donald trump are not going to leave him over maybe one debate. what do you think they expect from him tonight? >> well, i don't think they'll leave him over a tepid performance at a debate. if he completely blows it, that's a whole other thing. if he just tries to prove some policy bona fides and i don't think his supporters will be that mad at him. i think his supporters want to see him get a little agitated. they want to see him talk, rail against career politicians, which will be very easy for him because they will be on his left and on his right. so i think they want to see him get a little bit excited but probably not overboard. >> i'll out of time. who has the most to lose tonight? >> i thi

and charlie black, a long time veteran, washingtonian, he said he's a more likable pat buchanan. buchanan had a lock on 25% of the base and could never grow it and he still believes that's it. his advice is let trump be trump and go after the other 75% of the republicans. i think that phrase says it all. deal with it. >> and you're talking to carly fiorina and then we have chris jansing speaking with rand paul. a jam-packed show. >> tell you what, rand paul does an imitation of tremendous tremendous. >> catch that after "news4 today." thanks, chuck. >>> bizarre story out of texas, shifting gears here. a funeral home offering a reward for a missing body. someone took 26-year-old julie mott's body from her casket after her funeral last week. she died from cystic fibrosis. the mortuary was locked so they don't know how someone got in to take off with the body. the funeral home is offering a $25,000 reward. >>> our country will mark a decade since hurricane katrina made landfall. it then worked its way up the golf, eventually slamming into new orleans as a category 3. more than 1,800

he is an appealing guy, a very likable guy. i think he did fine but i don't think he hit anything out of the park. >>> fox news moderators. >> you were okay. okay. >> not like brit hume. you set the bar very high. >> i set the bar very high by having my fellow panelists do all the questioning. i kept the clock. >> you're always so gentle russ. thank you to you. >> at the end of the night, what the candidates really care about is how they came across to the voters. pollster frank luntz has established a powerful group for us. frank luntz is here. the ceo of luntz global. what did they say? >> we're about to make some news tonight. i want to you watch how they voted. when you came in here how many of you had a positive opinion of donald trump overall. how many of you have a positive opinion of him now? who was negative toward donald trump when you walked in here? who is negative now? what happened? you were a trump supporter when you walked in. >> yes, frank. you know what happened? i liked him when i came in here because he was

while on the republican side, trump getting more and more likable. devin dwyer with the polls. >> reporter: tonight, trouble for hillary clinton in a state where she knows defeat. eight years after she failed to win iowa, a new poll of democrats shows clinton slipping, losing a third of her support since may. her lead now its lowest ever, just seven points ahead of senator bernie sanders. >> this is not anti-hillary clinton. this is pro-bernie sanders, and pro a message that says enough is enough. >> reporter: sanders is leading clinton in new hampshire, energizing liberals, particularly younger voters. and he's not the only clinton alternative stirring excitement. vice president joe biden surprises a jamboree of delaware democrats saturday, building speculation he may get in the race. the new iowa poll shows a door could be open for biden. 14% of iowa democrats want biden as their nominee. 13% remain undecided. >> very good magazine this week. >> reporter: meanwhile, a stunning turnaround in iowa for gop frontrunner donald trump. three months ago, 6

. >> you're likable enough hillary. no doubt about it. >> that's what happens when barack obama is flying too high. a little bit condescending and it hurt. that was right before she beat him in new hampshire. >> both of these were with women candidates. and there won't be a woman on the stage. >> in the happy hour tomorrow there will be a woman. >> it can apply to men. you played that clip it played into the narrative that he is an out of touch so you have to be very cautious. >> you had a sense that he had in his pocket. rule number four is that gaffes are amplified. your mistakes make your opponents look good in comparison. in 1992 then president bush stumbled through how the deficit had affected his family personally. it made him look out of touch and played into clinton's hands. >> obviously, it has a lot to do with interest rates. >> she's saying you personally. >> on a personal basis, how has it affected you? >> maybe i will get it wrong. are you suggesting if somebody has means, that the national debt doesn't aff
