mrs. clinton is very concerned about voter rights as she always has been. she was my senator i can say in that area. she is very consistent, and we chatted about that before the flight attendant made me sit down. >> i think the fact that it's so important for her is she is looking into 2016. the backlash against voting rights at the state level take place, she is going to have a serious problem. >> whether she runs or not, i think she and the president recognize this is a serious problem for voters. but clarence, let me ask you. you're chicago. >> we know about voting in chicago. >> do you. >> early and often, yeah. >> i wasn't going to bring that up. >> that was my first undercover assignment back in the '70s. we'll talk about that later. >> let me go to the relationship with the president and mrs. clinton. they were rivals, and now they're friends. how does that develop in your opinion, and is that real? >> in politics, no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, just permanent interests. we see here now -- well, barack obama when he invited hillary clint

they split about 30% of the vote, mrs. clinton and john edwards. barack obama only won iowa with about 38% of the vote. if either one of those two had jumped ahead we would have had a completely different eight years. to goldie's point, you can't tell this far out. but it's fun to talk about. let me make one quick other point. in washington we know these people. we know senators. we know cabinet secretaries, we know former cabinet. so they're always at the top of the list this far out because the washington press core knows them, they go to receptions with them, they go to correspondent centers. there are a ton of governors on both sides of the aisle that i think are peering over the transom to wait for their chance to see if they can be the one that gets into this thing. i suspect both sides will have a group of governors jump in and have a spirited primary. >> you know, goldie, to you on this one. it looks like the gop has a new strategy waiting in the wings. the new york magazine puts it this way, i'll read it to you, quote, the republican party

who's been with mrs. clinton when she was at the state department. i doubt that her aspirations are running for political office. it seems to me that she married into that and that she's surrounded by it. but she seems to me to be somebody who is very comfortable behind the scenes. with hillary clinton. somebody who is very loyal. and, in fact, has shown her loyalty to her husband in this race. >> so, looking into your political crystal ball, how do you see this evolving? how do you see this ending potentially? >> well, i think it's a really uphill struggle for anthony weiner to become mayor of new york. political experts i talked to in new york wonder whether he's going to make it into that -- into that runoff. his poll numbers are headed in the wrong direction. his favorability is headed in the wrong direction. so, you know, i think the odds become longer and longer and longer for him to win this race. >> gloria borger, thank you so much. good to see you. >> sure. >>> and anthony weiner and san diego's
