peter doocy live in des moines with more. peter, good morning. >> good morning, sandra. it's cold outside here in iowa and it was cold inside last night on stage as both bernie sanders and elizabeth warren stood by their stories about a private dinner where warren claims bernie sanders disparaged her chances. >> senator warren confirmed in a statement than in 2018 you told her you did not believe that a woman could win the election and why did you say that? >> welcome as a matter of fact, i didn't say it. >> senator warren, what did you think when senator sanders told you a woman could not win the election? [laughter] >> i disagreed. bernie is my friend and i am not here to try and fight with bernie. >> but right after that, warren refused to shake hands with sanders. neither one of them have addressed it. so we checked with a candidate who unknowingly walked into that standoff, tom steyer. >> him my goal i was literally saying good night and nice to see you two senators warren and sanders. they were having a conversation, and i really wasn't listening. i was really just
