you have canter. >> it would not be michele bachmann. >> they want a house king, too. ul ryan and also bachmann. >> you have tension and also canter in there and you have someone else. >> bachmann is realigning the tea party, she can move in with the tea party and take that job over. >> she can't get a majority. >> there will be a struggle. the blunts, the guys who are close to all the lobbyists and the tea party guys. >> these young turks, if they do take over the white house, not the white house, i get too far ahead of this discussion. if they take over the control of the house, they will want to get new faces in there. >> they will not want michele bachmann because the tea party is not going to win in such great numbers that they are going to be a dominant voice on capitol hill. >> i don't agree with that at all. do you? the tea party is bigger than the tea party looks. >> they are bottoming out. they aren't going to win in the general. >> is the tea party bigger than the tea party? >> the tea party is large, but the republicans will decide who gets the speakers and

the difference here is that michele bachmann represents the most republican district in minnesota.n grayson represents a district that is by no means democratic. when you have on race and running against a candidate who may be a conservative republican, but a boring conservative republican like dan webster and just won the primary on the republican side last week -- who just won the republican primary last week, i think a large share of the vote goes to independencts. i think any incumbent should be worried. 40% of voters are standing with alan grayson renown. i think this race is bound to become much closer. host: jennifer duffy, the caller was from georgia. the georgia governor's race is number two on your list here. guest: it represents something of a phenomenon that we see. there are five former governors who are running for their jobs back. one is in georgia, bob barnes. he has been out of office for eight years, but would like his job back. he is being challenged by a former republican congressman nathan deal. you have seen barnes troubling stayed pretty much apologizing for

michele bachmann saying that we will not let anyone get away with saying iran less than 1 million.hey estimated the crowd at 250,000. ed on the independent line. caller: good morning. thank you for c-span and your unbiased reporting of events. i took my family down to the mall yesterday. we walked around. what i saw was a lot of people gathered for cause w. before i went, i believe that there would be some trouble for the dual rallies, i saw none of it. i do think glenn beck is divisive and i do not agree with a lot of their points, they held their rally, and they were not as divisive as they thought the repeat -- as i thought there would be. unfortunately, reclaiming the dream and restoring other, each rally, it would've been more important if the actual dream of martin luther king were for all of them to be together. i think, like the previous caller said, when it talks about restoring water and taking back the country, i am unsure who they want to take the country back from and who lost the honor in the country. i just wish they were more specific in what they're were saying is

. >> it was michelle bachmann, right, that announced it i guess last week or something i think it is a sign of success. i did not know whether or not the tea party caucus itself becomes important or not. we will wait and see what happens. but what you see is you have candidates from both political parties, and even phonies. everybody is trying to pretend they are a tea party guy now. so, we are like the cool kids and everybody wants to get up on our stage. i think we have to make sure that we continue to police our communities so we don't get any phonies but we get people committed to those ideas. and i want to make sure the tea party caucus days true to those values as well because these are in fact politicians, with all due respect to them. >> what is interesting is none of the republican leadership signed on. neither the wit or minority leader. i am wondering if that spoke anything about the republican party. >> my chairman is a guy named dick armey, and he was one of the engineers of the republican revolution in 1984 and i -- 1994 and i was working on capitol hill in 1993 and wat

speak, along with former republican house majority leader dick armey and minnesota republican michele bachma bachmannm maine to be here. >> we want the people it to be able to speak up. >> reporter: glenn williams came from indiana. >> our country is in a mess. we're spending money we don't have about that. >> reporter: but glenn beck has chosen to hold his rally on perhaps the most iconic spot for the civil rights movement, 47 years ago today. >> i have a dream. >> reporter: and beck has said unflattering things about the nation's first african-american president. >> this president i think has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has a deep seeded hatred for white people or the white culture. this guy is, i believe, a rac t racist. >> reporter: now he's insisting that today's rally is all about reclaiming america's civil rights this reverend helped coordinate the march on washington in 1963. >> you cannot tell me that this is not planned to hijack the site, the lincoln memorial, and the message of martin luther king jr. >> i'm sorry, african-americans don't own martin luther kin
