U.S. Public Increasingly Concerned by the Rise of ISIS
Politico's Mike Allen and Michael Dimock of the Pew Research Center join NBC's Betsy Fischer Martin to discuss the upcoming midterm Congressional elections. Recent military gains by ISIS fighters have once again placed foreign policy concerns at the center of domestic political debates and have led to renewed support for U.S. interventionism abroad. Despite this shift in the national mood, however, foreign policy is likely to play a relatively minor role in the midterm elections. The panelists agree that the Republicans are favored to retake control of the Senate in November.
