Kara Swisher: I want to see what happens three months down the line when the yelling doesn't work. The part she's had about the partisanship of the guild was really interesting.

We discuss what broke down in the union’s talks with AMPTP, her last words at the negotiating table, her leading concerns for a new deal – and whether this could all ramp up to a run for office.
