​​TRISH REGAN​ (HOST)​: Do you think there​'​s a chance that you know, maybe, I'm just saying, ​I mean ​she has political leanings that are clearly to the left. ​She's a Democrat --​

​REGAN: ​W​e've done enough stories on academia to figure those guys​ out, and gals. ​​Is it possible​ that​ she might see ​this as her civic duty, that she is somehow saving her gender, saving women, saving the country, and saving the Democratic Party by preventing this nomination?
