later this morning. a luxury cruise ship returned to its new jersey port last night after passengers endured a terrifying ocean storm. royal caribbean's anthem of the seas was battered by rough see saes and -- seas and powerful winds, forcing passengers to tyke refuge in the cabins for ten hours. it was carrying 4,000 passengers and 1,600 crew members when it departed saturday on a seven-day cruise to the bahamas. that's a city. weary passengers streamed out of the ship. one woman called the ordeal a cruise from hell. >> i want to cry. i just want to cry. like all the energy just trying to hold it in, now that we're off the boat, i just want to let it out. >> royal caribbean will provide guests with full refunds for the cruise. yes, i think that would be best. to politics where the republican presidential field is shrinking after poor performances in new hampshire, carly fiorina and chris christie both announced they're suspending their campaigns.

on the other hand, donald trump is taking that momentum to south carolina where he declared quote, you're next. and that a win in south carolina would propel him to run the table the rest of the primary season. he also pushed his general electability saying he could even win states that are not republican strong holds like new york and michigan. nbc's peter alexander spoke with john kasich fresh off his strong second place finish in new hampshire. >> how do you navigate the anticipated negative attacks? >> i won't let somebody pound me. i mean, i have a right to be able to defend myself. >> watching the results come in tuesday night, kasich was more reflective. >> we plugged away and plugged away. little engine that can. >> reporter: but in south carolina, this midwestern moderate faces a steep uphill climb. in a state with far more christian conservatives, a target audience for ted cruz. >> men and women of south carolina i believe want a consistent conservative. somebody who is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. >> reporter: jeb bush's days may be numbered, without a strong south carolina showing. calling on his brother, the

former president. >> jeb bush is a leader who will keep our country safe. >> reporter: so much for southern charm. a marco rubio adviser predicting this state is going to be a bloodbath. >> south carolina will be definitive and determinative and i need your vote. come out and help us. i need your support. >> reporter: still south carolinians may avoid the establishment altogether. >> they're looking for somebody that's going to say the things that they want to hear. the people in south carolina are angry right now. and they want a candidate that reflects that. >> nbc's peter alexander reporting. for the democrats, senator bernie sanders is in a new york state of mind. fresh off the huge primary victory over hillary clinton, he met in harlem with msnbc host reverend al sharpton. the two discussed the flint water crisis and civil rights for african-americans over breakfast at harlem's famous sylvia's restaurant. they're broadening the senator's appeal with minority voters.

they have touted endorsements from key african-american leaders but a number of lawmakers are speaking out against him, accusing sanders of being absent on issues important to african-americans. one said, there's no credibility to the things being said at the twilight of his political career. according to an nbc news/"wall street journal" poll, sanders trails clinton in the states decisive of african-american voters and sanders addressed that with sharpton. >> you had a great victory last night and you are now moving into nevada and south carolina. how do you intend, because clearly new hampshire and iowa are mostly white states if not nearly white, how do you intend to deal with the diverse populous in south carolina and in the south? >> in a couple of ways. it comes down to what we believe and what we are fighting for economically. and what we're fighting for in terms of social justice and

criminal justice. once the word gets out who i am, what we stand for, we'll do just fine. >> sharpton says he plans on meeting with hillary clinton next thursday before announcing his endorsement. meanwhile, after a resounding loss to sanders hillary clinton is turning her focus to nevada and south carolina. they're dispatching bill clinton to try and rally some support in south carolina this weekend. but in the wake of losing new hampshire, clinton could be facing critical problems with key voters. top supporters are telling nbc news they're really alarmled by voters' reasons for abandoning clinton. she lost on trustworthiness by 86 points and even lost to women by 11 points. and sanders overtook the young women by 59 points. the campaign is counting on her firewall of minority support in the more diverse states ahead. that strategy will get a boost

from the key african-american group today. the congressional black caucus, it will formally endorse clinton calling her a better candidate for african-americans. congresswoman marcia fudge of ohio said she's been talking about this for her entire life. i have only heard about it from sander ins the last year. clinton will look to halt sanders halt when they go one up on one in milwaukee in the next debate. reports out of north korea are indicating that country's army chief of staff has been executed. a member of the parliament tells nbc news they have multiple confirmations from various sources. the execution was for corruption and conspiracy according to the sources. south korea's intelligence service reports over 70 such executions since kim jong un took power. and the u.s. senate approved a bill to block north korea's progress towards a nuclear weapon. in a 96-0 tally the senate bill mandates sanctions against those involved in the nation's missile

by a second deputy who evans shot. the suspect was killed by being fired at by two others. jeffrey gaylord became emotionally broken when he reported. >> today is a sad day for those citizens of harford county that we are sworn to serve. one of our deputies is a 30-year veteran, served in the services division and the other deputy had served this agency for the last 16 years and he was assigned to the community services division. >> the identities of the deputies have not yet been released. here's something you don't see every day. the wild elephant went through a destructive rampage in indwhat. it sent frightened residents to run for their lives. no one was injured here. the giant female wandered from a nearby forest and was searching

later this month. they don't face much competition. hot dogs serving fell 4% at restaurants last year. back over to you. >> i thought hot dogs were out once we knew what was in them. in sports, kobe bryant bear hugs lebron james. the cavs had no problems with the reeling lakers but kevin love reinjured his surgically repaired left shoulder. kobe finished the night with 17. in england, the name of the game is shrogue time, it may be the angriest event. it's a giant brawl moving throughout the time of ashborn. the field is only three miles long. the distance from one end of the town to the other. it can take days but when a goal is scored the winner drinks as much ale as they can consume. this has been going on since the 17th century. super bowl winning quarterback peyton manning

yucked it up with jimmy fallon, but the highlight might be manning going one-on-one with magic johnson in the famous egg russian roulette. take a look. >> i had dreams growing up that i would have a chance to play magic one-on-one some day. >> this is it! >> i never thought the egg -- >> dreams come true. >> good to see you, buddy. oh! >> super bowl winner with egg on his face. it was worth it just for that. get ready for a wicked winter blast of cold temperatures. and the demolition, coming up next.

>> yeah. the justice department is suing ferguson, new jersey, for constitutional violations. this comes a day after the city council rejected a negotiated agreement with the doj because the cost of implementing the decree could run as much as $10 million over the next three years. >> it is extremely unfortunate that the city has chosen to litigate this matter rather than move directly to the remedies and reforms that would in fact have been proven a benefit to the city and avoided the cost of litigation. >> ferguson had been under investigation since michael brown, an unarmed black teen was fatally shot by a police officer who said he was in fear of his life when he opened fire. for the 15th time, sirhan sirhan the man who assassinated senator robert kennedy in 1968 was denied parole yesterday. now, this after paul shraid, a friend of kennedy who was also shot pled for sir than's release. he believes the senator was killed by an unidentified second shooter. oh, no!

now here's your thursday dish of "scrambled politics." the presidential candidates spent more than $100 million in ads leading up to the new hampshire primary. well, npr is out with an analysis of how much each spent per vote. the results are surprising. fourth place jeb bush spent over $1,000 per vote. roughly $400 more than the next candidate on the list, chris christie. this compared to the winner donald trump who spent a paltry $31 per vote as he's been telling us pretty much. the democratic candidate spent around the same, bernie sanders $60 to hillary clinton's $52. republican candidate jim gilmore didn't spend a lot of money in the granite state but still improved on the 12 votes he got in iowa, though not by much.

130 votes. among those who received more votes than gilmore, martin o'malley, mike huckabee and santorum. and this man, democratic candidate vernon supreme who doubled up gilmore in the vote count and is preparing for the zombie apocalypse and free ponies for all americans. you have my vote. in case you're wondering mr. supreme finished fourth in the democratic primary. that's too bad. someone who did much better than gilmore in new hampshire, ohio governor john kasich. he may be in for a fight back home, however, after a bill which cuts funding to planned parenthood was sent to his desk. a bill he is expected to sign. media mogul rupert murdoch has harsh words for chris christie. he tweeted this. chris christie, suicide bomber, damages victim while plowing himself up, referring to his attack of course on marco rubio at the last gop debate.

but perhaps not the most judicious choice of words, rupert. remember that ice cream flavor ben & jerry's cofounder created for bernie sanders? bernie's yearning. the candidate got to try it yesterday. >> well, i'm tasting this for the very first time. let's start with this. >> so it's called bernie's yearnings. >> it's good. >> it's ben & jerry who created one just for you. we had to show this. what's the other one? [ cheers and applause ] >> this is good stuff. >> good? >> it's really good. >> the guy has been busy. he doesn't have time to stop for ice cream. jimmy fallon remembers sanders' new hampshire speech differently than i do. >> but that is not neither here nor there nor anywhere. i'm speaking tonight to claim victory in the new hampshire primary over she who must not be named.
