ALISYN CAMEROTA, CNN ANCHOR: I want to ask you about his fundraising though, which has been lackluster compared to some of his rivals. So here's for the third quarter. He raised almost $9 million. And when you compare that to Sanders' $33.7 million; Warren, $25.7 million, are you concerned about that?</s>SEN. CHRIS COONS (D-DE): Well, Alisyn, the poll that you just released on this broadcast a few minutes ago shows that Joe continues to enjoy a very strong and solid lead nationally. And in recent polls he's been shown as the leading Democratic contender in critical races. For example, a recent Fox News poll showed him nine points up in Wisconsin over President Trump. I guess, obviously --</s>CAMEROTA: Yes. But then, why aren't -- why isn't he raising more money?</s>COONS: I will agree with you that those fundraising numbers are below his chief competitors, but I know that the former vice president is working hard. You know, when you run for president you've got to do several things at the same time. Be on the ground, as he has been recently in New Hampshire, in Iowa, in South Carolina, and connect with the media nationally, and continue to raise money. One of the things I respect about Joe Biden, he's never been a ferocious fundraiser. He has enjoyed connecting with people, hearing from people, being on the ground and campaigning. I'm confident with the strong poll numbers you've just released his fundraising will pick up and we'll see a very strong fourth quarter.</s>CAMEROTA: OK, Sen. Chris Coons. We really appreciate you being on NEW DAY. Thank you.</s>COONS: Thank you, Alisyn. Great being with you.</s>CAMEROTA: John.</s>JOHN BERMAN, CNN ANCHOR: So how will Republicans react to the impeachment testimony we heard from Ambassador Bill Taylor? Two former Republican congressmen join us next.
