Jeb struggles with his Iraq position, Obama/Dems clash over trade and Hillary stays away from the media.

Presumed presidential candidate Jeb Bush struggles to answer whether he would have gone into Iraq, knowing what we know now. Rich Lowry says this is a "post-Bush party" and Bush understandably has a hard time acknowledging this new order. President Obama and Democrats clash over the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Megan McArdle says the real issue is needing a place for an up or down vote on the trade deal with 11 other countries. Hillary hasn't taken a question from the press since April 21. Josh Barro says no one cares and there is no love lost between the media and the Clintons, but Republicans are convinced media is in bed with the Clintons. Who's right?

Josh Barro (New York Times) moderates from the Center. On the Left is Robert Scheer (TruthDig.com). Rich Lowry (National Review) is on the Right. Megan McArdle (Bloomberg View) is our special guest.
