During the Tuesday edition of MSNBC’s All In, tempers erupted when Republican strategist Rick Wilson told fellow panelists Cornell Belcher and Jess McIntosh of EMILY’s List that Hillary Clinton is campaigning on her gender as a mother/grandmother and despite that, her poll “numbers are cratering” on honesty and trustworthiness.

In a noteworthy moment prior to the verbal scuffle, McIntosh fretted that she wished she could root for Carly Fiorina in Wednesday night’s GOP debate, but won’t since “she's got the same exact agenda, this backwards looking agenda that the rest of them [her opponents] have, so I don't know how much of a real substantive distinction is going to be drawn.”

While McIntosh warned viewers that “it’s always a mistake to think of women as a monolithic voting block,” the abortion group spokeswoman did just that in arguing that women are most concerned about “gender issues” like abortion, birth control, and equal pay. While she “want[s] to be pulling for Carly” on Wednesday:

The Republican Party desperately needs more women in it, but the bottom line is she's got the same exact agenda, this backwards looking agenda that the rest of them have, so I don't know how much of a real substantive distinction is going to be drawn because she's there although I'm glad she's there.

The focus stayed on Fiorina for a few moments and in a brief quip, Wilson shot back at a point Belcher made about a Fiorina ad following in the footsteps of ones Hillary’s aired before: “Yeah, but Carly Fiorina is not running on the principle of elect me, I'm mommy and grandma.”

It was at that moment that the mood escalated with McIntosh declaring that such an assertion was “insane” and the scandal-ridden former secretary of state has been instead “talking about the policies that matter for women and families.”

With the three panelists and host Chris Hayes all shouting overtop of each other, Hayes scolded Wilson for stating what he did considering “all the things to say about Hillary Clinton.” Not to be denied, Wilson turned to Clinton’s sagging poll numbers:

Yeah, Hillary Clinton has retreated to her last read-out – Hillary has retreated to her last read-out which is all of this desperate attempt to recapture Democratic women voters who have all walked away from her this year because her numbers on honest and trustworthy have cratered.

In nearly identical fashion compared to his gender comments, Belcher, Hayes, and McIntosh did not take those remarks very well either. Despite the fact that the latest CBS News/New York Times poll showed her honesty and trusthworthy ratings are continuing to plummet, McIntosh ruled that “[n]one of this is even remotely true” and that she “just can't let that stand.”

As Wilson reiterated that Clinton’s “numbers have cratered,” Belcher managed to shout back that “that’s not true” and her “numbers have not cratered” as McIntosh responded with the claim that the former First Lady is “running 20 points than anyone else in the field with women.”

Reduced to a role on the sidelines, Hayes interjected to try and take back his host duties: “Hey, guys. Hey, will you all be quiet? It's my show. Hold on one second. Thank you very much. Okay?”

Hayes then sided with his fellow liberals Belcher and McIntosh in ruling that “[h]er numbers have not cratered” and “[a]ll Democratic women have not run away from,” but somehow “[s]he has lost significant support as the primary process has played out.”

The MSNBC host wrapped up All In’s opening segment with some gooey words for Clinton’s campaign and the “remarkably substantive” policy proposals they have released thus far:

I have to say, people talk about the desperation of the Hillary Clinton campaign, whether you think it's a good or bad campaign, e-mails hurting or not, the one thing about the campaign is, they have been rolling out policy after policy after policy and in fact, what's been remarkable to me is it's been again, you could say this is good or bad or she's up or down in the polls, but the way she's run this campaign so far has been remarkably substantive in terms of what they have been proposing.
