"Rigged" seems to be the new buzzword in national politics. Donald Trump charges the Republican nominating process is rigged against him. Now billionaire Charles Koch, a major contributor to Republican candidates, tells ABC's "This Week" the economy is "absolutely" rigged and that if he was in control, there would not be "a tax code that subsidizes the wealthy."

Bot parties are concerned about their candidates' rhetoric. Donald Trump's advisers are telling him to tone it down. And Democratic National Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz is warning Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton about their rhetoric, suggesting it could "make it more difficult for us to reunify" after a Democratic nominee for president is chosen.

Could Hillary Clinton's worst problem be boredom among Democratic women. A new Gallup poll shows only 31 percent of women are paying close attention to the presidential race, compared to 44 percent of men. This despite the expectation that Democrats will nominate their first woman as the party candidate.
