madonna or clint eastwood? and good day, in our daily fix today, mitt romney scored another double digit win in nevada but the ugly campaign is taking a toll. romney trails the president by 61% to 45%. leets ta let's talk about the poll. >> you highlighted it, it's a statistically significant edge for president obama, he is not ahead 60% to 40%, but it reflects that the president is starting to trend upwards. he is doing better among noncollege educated white voters. he is up there, so, again, he combined these numbers with the

economic numbers that we got on friday and the president's team is probably as happy as they have been with his re-election prospects in a year. >> let's talk about some of the other things though that the president has to face. one of them is, what could be a tough political problem for him with independent voters, swing state vote voters, and catholic voters and religious voters on this decision over the health care bill, how it will be regulated by hhs, let's talk about it. because an interesting thing about it, it cuts through a lot of lines. priests have been speaking out strongly that this requirement, that catholic hospitals and academic institutions have to offer contraception. >> it's an odd fight for the

administration to pick. but catholics are regularly a swing group. al gore won them and president bush beat president kerry with them. and president obama won them by about eight. this is a swing group that as you said you said, it is heavily populated particularly in the middle of the country, the rust belt as well as the northeast. so it's kind of an odd political decision. it's a fight that i certainly do not think we have heard the last of legally or politically. and i think we are going to have to hear more from the obama admied from the administration because i do not think the catholic church will back off of their interpretation of the law. >> something that struck me to news hour friday night, on the pbs news hour, where mark

shields a shields a shields and david brooks agreed. let's watch the rejection of this. >> the fallout is terrible for the white house and for the president. >> really? >> yes. >> he has left them out to dry. i mean, he really has, and with a policy that i think is indefensible. >> it's the most under reported story of many months. you have catholics that are set and evangelicals that are upset. whatever problem they had with mitt romney, that is now healed. they are united with mitt romney because they are so upset about this story. >> so what does the, is the president going to back down or was this a case where he was not looking at the politics of that, so had wh so this was a decision of principal not of a political decision. >> if he has any place that he

can defend himself, it's not a political move. just because it was a principal or policy decision, if the politics of it turn out to be even worse than the obama administration thought they were, i would not rule out a reversal. remember, everything that happened in 2012 has politics in it. >> chris, thank you very much. romney's win was decided but newt said he is in it to the bitter end. >> what happens is every primary day, or caucus day, the romney headquarters in boston sends out the rumor that they believe i'll withdraw, that of course is their greate

their greatest fantasy. >> let's talk about what we saw so far that shows that mitt romney is losing traction here with these voters. >> with respect to the abc polling operation, they produced in that poll some negative information about governor romney. the broader point is consistently, week in and week out, if you look at the polling data, mitt romney does the best of any republican candidate in the field. he is most likely to defeat barack obama, some weeks he is a little behind and some weeks he is a little ahead. but he is probably most strong positioned to take on barack obama >> what is the latest on the sheldon adelson situation.

he has been talking to the romney campaign, is he signaling that he will be willing to finance mitt romney in a general election once gingrich drops out? >> i think he has said publically, i think that mr. adelson has said while he is personal friends with newt dp g gingrich and has funded his super pac, he has no problems with mitt romney and will lean toward supporting mitt romney as a second choice or plan-b, so romney will want to get everyone's support, including someone like mr. adelson. my hope is that he will shut off the faucet to gingrich's super pac. he will not win and as long as mr. adelson funds that, it's helping it without it being productive. >> newt gingrich could not go on

without the support of the family or mr. adelson. what will happen in minnesota, interesting that the romney campaign turned its fire against rick santorum in minnesota today, are they concerned that santorum will clobber romney in minnesota so minnesota? >> well the turnout model is modest in terms of size and the people have moved toward those that they feel are the most ske conserve i conservativ conservative. obviously, ron paul has a big group here and santorum does to and newt has campaigned over decades here. you'll see a clumping result tomorrow but certainly a place where other candidates will have a strong hold and it n's not gog to be a walk in the park for romney, and i support him, it's a tough state for mitt because

of the closeness of the other candidates in such a small field. >> time will tell whether you are trying to lower the expectations for the front-runner, mitt romney. one of the criticisms against romney is that he is surpressing turn out and gingrich has had more exciting turnout than romney did, particularly in florida, if you compare south carolina and florida. >> over time, i do not believe that the american people will approve of a campaign that surpresses turnout. every county that i carried in florida an increased turnout and every county that romney carried, he had a decreased t n turnout? >> what about that comment? >> if you look at mitt's victories you see a compelling

set of demographics he won against every republican and conservative group, by gender and age and philosophy, and to suggest that his victories are not compelling is not fair. for newt to suggest that somehow on he is only losing because of a modest change in turnout is not true. >> your advice to newt gingrich, is he hurting the brand by stick it out, his idea is super tuesday brings in the south into play. >> it's not the romney's place or my place to say when someone should get out of the race. but i'll say this, everyone has to make their own decisions, but it's clear to me and it's clear

to the american people that mitt romney is the most electable republic republican conservative candidate in the field. so now we have to get the rest of the states to reach that conclusion as well. >> thanks so much, governor tim pawlenty. thanks for joining us from minnesota. >> you are welcome. >> we will have susan rice joining us next right here on "andrea mitchell reports." ] what is this shorty? uh, tissues sir, i'm sick. you don't cough, you don't show defeat. give me your war face! raaah!

and break news that we are following today degree the u.s. and great britain have closed their embassies in demascus to pressure the assad regime.

>> this is even more shameful when you consider that at least one of those members continues to deliver weapons to assad >> human rights' groups are reporting that more than 200 people have been killed. with us now live from the u.n., ambassador sms. rice tell us wh you are on angry and why what russia did, after all of the negotiations why it was so offensive? >> well it was not so much that i was angry, i was expressing what is the shared frustration of the syrian people, the american people and the publics of the countries all over the world represented on that council. that russia and china by their

veto made it impossible for the council to support an arab league plan for a peaceful democratic transition. that resolution that was vetoed was not meaningless and watered down, it was significant. if that it would have lined up the entire international community behind a process where both sides had to come together and on a swift timetable, negotiate a transition to a democratic regime. the fact that russia and china chose to line themselves up with a dictator that is on his last legs rather than with the people of syria and the people of middle east and the principaled views of the rest of the international community was indeed disgusting and shameful and i think it's a decision that they will come to regret when there's that democratic syria that will not forget this action. >> one of the concerns that people are expressing is, while

russia said, the foreign minister said, that the resolution could lead to civil war, now others are saying the failure of the u.n. to act can lead to civil war and this will fuel brutal actions. >> it's a fair and worrying assess mana aassessment. it was again on saturday, over course of the 10 or 11 months, they did get more peaceful but we were not further from civil war, we were closer. now by preventing what may have been the last opportunity for a peaceful political dialog under arab league rules to lead to a democratic transition is horrible. and does increase, very

tragically, the likelihood that the violenceescalate. >> you suggested that russia is arming the assad regime. >> i did not suggest it, i said it. and they admit it. it's not a secret. they say there's not an embargo preventing them from doing that. but it does not support what is happening, the killing of people on a massive scale every day. we are in opposition to that and what ever had russia and china decide to line up with assad and his tactics. >> what do we know, there are people on the ground trying to find out what is happening to the opposition, what information are we getting from from the

ground? >> we continue to have the information that the syrian p protesters and good and brave reporters are providing and the contacts throughout the society, because we had to close the embassy for security reasons because the syrian authorities refused our repeated requests to take the necessary measures to ensure the security of our people in our facilities. it does not mean that we have abandon the syrian people and doesn't mean that we will be blind, but it was in our preference, we would have preferred to stay. ambassador ford and his team have done remarkable work and he will retain his position as a u.s. representative to syria, but because there was no security, they will have to do it from here. >> i want talk to you about the election monitors from the

national democratic institute, this threat from egypt to charge them with crimes, actually, which the secretary of state says is putting at risk a billion and a half dollars to aid to egypt. what is happening in cairo? >> we have been clear that these american workers did absolutely nothing wrong. they are doing what they do all over the world every day. which is impartially support civil society and democratic development. we think it's important that the egyptian government allow them to depart and drop the charges so they can come home and rejoin their families. this is a very serious issue that is, has real potential negativie ismpacts for our relationship in all aspects as well as what secretary clinton said, our financial

relationship. >> the u.s. has been sending signals at every level to israel that we do not think that military action is warranted right now against iran. what should the u.s. be doing to persuade others that iran can be dealt with diplomatically, or is israel correct, are we approaching a level where the iranians will go beyond the point of no return before they create a weapon because of the materials they have amassed? >> the president has been clear, the united states will stand with israel and the rest of the international community to take the steps necessary to prevent iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. this is a matter of great importance to our national security as well as to countries in the region, obviously including israel. we want to continue to increase the pressure on iran.

the economic pressure to change it's behavior and come clean about the nuclear program. we have amped up the efforts at every stage. the broadest and hashest sanctions have been pushed on iran and that is having a bite. we have passed ever tougher sanctions and the eu has done the same and the countries in the gulf region and many others around the world, has done so, and iran is starting to feel the economic pressure, they are saying at the highest levels that it's crippling and biting. we feel that needs to have an opportunity to play the course. the president said we have taken no options off the table but we believe that this can still be

addressed through diplomacy. >> and we should point out that the president today signed the sanctions putting tighter sanctions on iran. thank you for jo for joining us. why has this ad led to charges of racism? this is "andrea mitchell reports". ♪

out now after all these years? it's a shocking story. >> i asked her that and she said, look, people will talk no matter what. she was outed in 2003 and i think that people need to know that. there was a oral history that came out and he looked at it and there were pages that were missing and he asked that person if he could see those pages. she released them to him and he found out about this intern. and he mentioned in his book, 37 words describing her as a beautiful young intern that worked in the press office and used the word mimi, daily news got hold of it and tracked down her na -- tracked her down and she had to issue a statement, yes i'm that person and leave me alone.

been relentlessly questioning the air force about what happened to the remains of her husband who had been killed in iraq in an explosion, she suspected that there were some misbehavior going on, but she could not get an answer. as we looked into it, we found that her husband's remains, some of those remains and as well as others servicemen and women had been incinerated, mixed with medical waste and sent to a dump. when this came to light a couple of months ago, the public was outraged, dis mayed and disgu disgusted in the course of my probe, i discovered that those that had blown the whistle and said this is not right years ago had been transferred, demoted and even fired.

and that was illegal. now just recently the office of special council, which is a government agency that serves to protect employees has confirmed that they were illegally fired t whistle blowers were retaliated against. >> you have four civilian workers who were the whistle blowers and the military, the air force officials shoved them aside and retaliated against them, what action will be taken against those that permitted this to happen? >> i told the secretary of the air force and secretary of the department of defense that anyone involved in retaliation in the case should be fired. they should have been fired already. the, as i say, the public, just the reaction to this is well maybe not surprising, but very

strong. this is considered just inappropriate behavior that anybody would treat soldiers with this manner of disrespect and dishonor. it's a disrespect to the family. and of course, a big problem remains, what will the department do to realign itself with the public feelings here? i think there needs to be soul searching. they really have to get together with families, with officers s with the clergy to ask themselves how do we restore the honor and respect that has been lost? >> congressman -- >> and we do not know how many soldiers even have been treated in the way, their remains have been treated in this way. >> it's stunning, and it shows
