people are looking beyond florida the question is can newt gingrich stay in the game what happened with rick santorum it is possible if santorum, drops out, and endorses gingrich it will allow him a surge to catch up with romney. it really seemed newt gingrich was gaining a lot of pop lairly at least when we saw it in south carolina what happened in what seemed like days between this primary and caucuses these different contests what happens that the front runner then become it is one behind the front runner all of a sudden. >> it is a very interesting primary season for that reason. i think you should remember each state is very very different voters this south carolina i think because gingrich is from georgia, they have a lot of affinity or kind of affiliation with him, in a way florida voters don't, it is a very different state, huge

hispanic population different beast if you will. >> so interesting let's talk about the latino voting block there. florida is an interesting state though like it would be a different story in miami versus you know, jacksonville, it is sort of an interesting big old state, what do these candidates need to do, to let the hispanic population feel comfortable even within the hispanic population not everyone agrees within that voting block. >> florida has a huge cuban population, which tends to lean a little bit more right of the larger hispanic population they have very different views on immigration than voters in nevada going to the polls pretty soon so i think what both romney and gingrich have tried to do is align themselves with cuban american leaders in florida, try to get some of the members of congress

representing that delegation to get them to support them romney has been really good about that. they both have spanish language ads out they are trying to reach out and say hey, i rep rest. your views ultimately re-- represent your views, ultimately regardless who you are, you are worried about jobs, foreclosures and they are looking for the candidate to solve those issues. on immigration, we have heard mitt romney say his father was born in mexico does that come across as disingenious he was there as a missionary in a missionary camp. i think it is clever of romney the mexican connection, i think it was out in the news a few weeks ago romney was ignoring it not really discussing it, it is smart of him when he is in florida to pull on those roots and say hey, i have this connection as well. you know i don't think it hurts him like i said the polls are showing he is doing really well

aligned himself with the right people even had senator rubio, who is very popular, both with the cuban population and tea parties in florida, show some sort of support for romney i think he is in a good position. >> we will see, just basically, 24 hours away now. staff writer with roll call thanks for being here. >> thank you. >> tony over to you. it is a day of service here at fox 5 on this mentoring monday, give us a call right now to learn more about how you can make a difference in the life of a young person in your community joining us life this morning, prince georges county executive, baker, to tell us about a mentoring initiative in prince georges county, that is represented here good morning. >> yes, we have two groups here, concerned black men, but also, the court appointed special advocacy here today getting calls we want all the men especially to call in. it also kicks off for us,

mentoring month, we start off be a king to a kid that is part of the mentoring we want to see done in prince georges county and throughout maryland. >> this is in need all across our area, in prince georges county you feel it is a particular need as well correct? >> we do we look at the number of kids leaving our schools early not graduating look at the number of kids who need help and that is why we started that initiative, be a king to a kid, mentoring that martin luther king did to so many people that went on to greatness we want churches, businesses, delegates, politicians, everybody to get involved especially the men we need more men to call into these phones today. >> tell us about cbm cares in prince georges county. >> they are working with some of our kids in our high schools it is a group we think is expanding and we thing they will do a great job and they are really doing a fine job mentoring our young people we need more of that done. >> you mention the folks who have been here before court

appointed special advocate of prince georges county tell us about that. >> they are the special advocacy the courts appoint to help out our young people when i was in annapolis they did a great job they need help and funding you know we want people to call in and help out the same way these groups are. >> one of the things we stress every time we do mentoring monday is, you know, there are different programs, different requirements but the one thing that they all are similar in, is that you know you don't have to have any particular, special skills, some times the commitment can be maybe as little as four hours a month of course it can be more than that depending on the organization and person it is a relatively easy thing to do. >> it is. i did something earlier this year where i had be the county executive for a day and just shadow me around i had a young person who was 13 spend the day with me. those are things you can do as a mentor it doesn't take a lot of money, doesn't take anything but just the time that you invest in a young person's life

will make all the difference. >> this is what we are doing all this morning, of course, we want you to call in (202)895- 3307 you will be connected with any of these folks here including the folks at concerned black men cares and prince georges county and here, court appointed special advocate. thanks for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> alison back to you. 7:40 a.m. on a monday morning still ahead a new clue in the certificate p for a miss -- clue for a missing toddler in maine. they didn't make it to the big game but some of the nfls best player dot one last shot on the field a recap of last night's pro bowl coming up next brad and jill in accounting? crazy! coffee and chocolate. mocha. ooh! who's mocha? for the perfect blend of coffee and chocolate, try a mocha coffee or latte today.

by wednesday. all right satellite radar i mentioned the funnel system that will keep things relatively calm and cool today with highs mid-40s. later tonight warm front will move through area of high pressure will slip off the coast winds will slip out of the south we will be off and running tuesday and wednesday look fantastic hard to believe it is end of january, and the first day of february with temperatures in the 60s there you go. 47 today, 62 tomorrow with sunshine, 65 could be late day showers wednesday and cool it down end of the week next couple days unseasonably warm beginning tomorrow. anything to look forward to in the world of traffic julie. we have a couple things to watch out for tucker first of all travelling inbound, canal road this bus is still in play here waiting for the crane to move it out of the roadway it has been with us for the most of the morning drive inbound, this left lane remains closed,

big delays reservoir road down towards the white hurst freeway. gw parkway it too is congested, 123 towards the potomac crossing, 295 a slow go leaving the belt way past malcolm x avenue westbound on the freeway accident activity, south capitol street tieing up the right lane, 295 across the anacostia, average speed down to 16 miles per hour you will also find travelling the outer loop below speed, 95, around georgia avenue, accident activity, follows police direction in order to get by. all right julie thank you very much the death of osama bin laden and relentless campaign of drone strikes may have finally broke on the back of the al qaeda terrorist organization. one of the latest indications of the group's loss of power comes from yemen, al qaeda forces stormed a town there only to be forced out days later when tribes men fought back. joining us now, wtop radio's

national correspondent, jay jay green. hard your reports last week about this, this particular, what happened in yemen is interesting, kind of fill in the gaps for us. >> well, they went in there 11 days ago now it was a scenario towns people were deathly afraid, as has been the case often in the past when al qaeda runs into your town most folks turn around and run the other way but they took a page out of what happened in iraq, back in 07 or 08 with the awakening they said we have to stand up to these people, and they did. and all the al qaeda fighters after 9 or 10 days or so, turned around left without firing a shot, after the tribes men stood up to them and showed them hey, we understand that you put your pants on one leg at a time just like we do, so we are not afraid of you and they turned around is left. this is further indication there has been other indicators as well al qaeda is weakened

are they? >> no doubt about it. people have been saying in the intelligence community and u.s. and internationally for years al qaeda is on its back foot al qaeda, is on the ropes, for the first time, we've heard someone say, it is done they are finished it is just a matter of time there is probably going to be some trickle off probably be a slow death, but, al qaeda is not going to be able to do what they did on 9/11, not what they did in london, madrid, bali as an organization. most of their strongest and talented pieces to their organization are gone killed or captured and replacing that institutional knowledge and talent is extremely difficult and that is what they have discovered in addition, he is not osama bin laden not able to rally the troops the same way. >> all right so with the

remnants the people who are left what happens to them do they fade into the wood work? look for other organizations. >> no, the key is remember as i spoke to all these sources, u.s. counter terrorism sources and officials from the un, remember, global terrorism while it is fading local terrorism the is rising and small groups of actors expect more of that activity, the death of al qaeda does not mean the death of terrorism, simply it means global ideas will fade because people are not buying into it any more but there will still bechallengeses ahead just al qaeda won't be in the leadership level. >> what was good about al qaeda it was something we and other international forces could focus on, that was a victorious fight but so far things have gone well here in this country

in terms of knowing about individuals planning different things but that is a whole different type. >> that's right tony and the big problem dealing with lone wolf factors you don't have the opportunity to eves drop on the organization you don't have the opportunity to peer inside the organizations to see what they are thinking because people are chattering over the internet or on their cell phone or whatever with the lone wolf it is all going on up there. i haven't seen any u.s. intelligence, counter terrorism sources that can peek in there although there are some activities under way to get a better idea how the lone wolf thinks but lone wolf factors and small groups are where the problem comes from. we will look ahead to see what happens good news about al qaeda. jay jay green thank you for joining us. alison. >> 8:22 a.m. on this monday morning we are getting new information this morning about that cruise ship in italy that ran aground find

generally, if you like springtime weather, something to look forward to, temperatures will warm up, lots of sunshine to start your day some clouds out to the west will get in here later this afternoon but we will be dry, so we are not terribly concerned with any thing falling out of the sky today again temperature mid-40s. changes area high pressure is going to get itself off the coast, overhead wind is moving as we speak allowing the jet stream to lift north off and running breezes out of the west and southwest starting tomorrow high temperatures tomorrow low 60s by wednesday we will have increasing clouds highs mid-60s so, definitely, it is hard to believe end of january early february we haven't had much of a winter at all this year, 47 today, close to seasonal, 62 tomorrow, 65 degrees actual air temperatures wednesday. a few late day showers, wednesday and thursday, cooler

friday. that is a look at weather now something even more important celebrate the red skins. >> yes, unfortunately dave ross is here with us that is not unfortunate we have to go so far back to celebrate the red skins but you know there have been a series of anniversaries this month, today marks the anniversary of the red skin super bowl win, their first super bowl win, over the miami dolphins in 1983 we both remember it well. >> very well tony former red skins star, joe jacoby joins us on the phone. thanks forgetting up with us this morning tony and i reminisce all the time about the glory days can you believe it has been 29 years. no, it is hard to believe it has been that long but seems like yesterday we were celebrate being the parade down in dc. >> i remember the parade after this game, just spontaneously, driving to georgetown, there was no organized event but

thousands of people out there, you guys brought the city together and we are talking about the 83 super bowl but joe, you played on four super bowl teams you have three rings right? >> right. right. so i was very fortunate, very blessed to be part of a great time in dc and on these teams and being with coach gibbs and playing this first one i mean 29 years ago, i am a young 20- year-old thinking this is going to happen every year fortunately for me it almost did. >> yeah, we were just taking a look at that play the play in the super bowl genre began is on a 4th and 1 breaks out of the tackle you get a nice lead block, do you guys still talk about that play specifics and that game with each other? >> no, no, i mean we talk about different things but that play

was a turning point and it was just we try to pick up the first down and continue to drive and everything worked out well, everybody you know, laid it on the line, everybody was great blocks on that john just had one guy to beat. >> boy did he beat him. >> you played in four super bowls won three super bowls you were in some key amazing games at rfk stadium what are highlights for you when you thing back what do you get most excited about or misty eyed about. >> well, tony being in four of them, each one of them have great memories, that one, celebrate now, it happened on my mom's birthday. >> oh, wow. >> i just lost my mom the year before my rookie year in camp so super bowl xvii means a lot to me as far as being the first one but the day it happened on and everything so very fond

memories of that. >> wow joe. we also get a lot of people on our facebook page that want to reach out to you, red skin robert youngerman asks can you ask joe if he things the red skins will make it back to the super bowl soon and what will it take for the current group to back over the hump. any thoughts on today's team? >> well, i think they are on the right track, trying to right the ship, it is going to take a lot of individuals that is what we had, to come together to play as one. 53 or 55 whatever the roster is now, and everybody has given up their self to the better. of the team they are on the right track with coach shanahan and alan we will see what happens near future >> one other question real quick about this draft coming up, when you won your three super bowls you did it in an era which people just don't do it this way any more you won it with three different quarterbacks everybody is clamoring about a quarterback here is that the key or can you

do it the way you all did it kind of by committee. >> well, of course i am going to be biased and say yes, you can do it by committee you look at the one constant that happened in that era, with coach gibbs it was a steady presence on the offensive line, a core group there and build the pieces around that you got to have a good quarterback he has to be smart can't turn the ball over, he has to work within that system. >> you know what joe i am with you that was the key back then and something for much of the last 10, 15 years red skins have been lacking cohesive offensive line. we always have jeff bos tick in here to talk about those colory days any time you want to come in. >> make it later in the day i live so far out now i don't feel like getting up at 3:30 a.m. to drive in. >> fair enough. >> we hear you. >> joe jacoby, one of the hogs pro bowl player, super bowl

champion three times over. thank you. >> what a treat. >> it is amazing because i know you and i remember that game well, he played up to 92 the last one against the buffalo bills, he came back to the playoffs. >> we got to go to break but he made a very good point back then you had a team playing together now it seems more often than not it is individuals. >> get that offensive line the quarterback will help. >> dave ross thanks for joining us. stay with us more in a couple moments cheeseburger macaroni?
