but she's been working for mccaskill. >> claire is a strong woman, strong convictions. s tried to work with both sides. but we get the reaction from the "persuasion" people that we're calling that they don't want to vote for claire mccaskill because they think that she's too much connected to president obama. but when we talk about it more and when they find out more about who todd akin is, they say "well, i don't like him either." and a non-vote is pretty much an assistance to claire. >> ifill: but after akin refused to get out of the race-- and as national republicans began to worry the missouri seat might cost them control of the senate -- some akin critics, including senator roy blunt, have returned to the fold. still, the party rift remains. former republican senator john danforth, a force in the st. louis community, said he would rather write in a candidate than support akin. >> i can understand their position. i mean, it's like counting apples. you know, they're saying, "well, we need 50 or 51 in the senate and he's one person who's competing for a seat." but i se

from television from other places and so the biggest cv show in america this season is a series called homeland claire danes on showtime it is huge series one are all sorts of golden globe awards and that was based on an israeli format is rarely a t.v. series so you also buy stuff and really if we did not get it we never have and the passage is going to accept very occasionally but there is a sudden recognition that. there are talented people all over the globe who are on a little you know we have home and our lives really serious is a jewish stuff you know what i mean like a lot like i mean the jewish stuff or is it like universal no no it is the homeland for instance is a story about domestic espionage sosa's not appealing to the jewish community you know no no no it is a. completely universal story we actually bought a series also from israel. a police drama which it was a good police story with great care and listen what would you suggest what's your advice to two russian filmmakers russian producers should really try to copy. what you do in the states to become successful or should they keep on t

[ laughter ] and more importantly, why butter in the movie "snakes on a plane." how did that happen? >> first of all, i'm huge in japan.

akin: look, i think it's interesting, i would like a rebuttal, yes, but i think it's interesting that claireks of being a moderate and effective she is worried about the spending and taxes and all, and yet i believe she supported $6.9 billion, trillion dollars worth of deficit spending, and she calls herself a moderate but i guess the thing that comes to my mind is how much do you have to spend to become a liberal? >> moderator: senator? mccaskill: i want to say this to congressman akin has been a lot of his time in the campaign talking of stingers and other things he has his whistle but if you look at the record, the interesting thing about it is congressman akin has only opposed the stimulus it is a democrat in the white house. because many times there were $400,000 in stimulus. he has voted for when president bush was president. three different times. december 20, $2,156,000,000,000 in this package. march 7, 2002, $108 billion stimulus project at february 7, 2008, 145 billion stimulus project. and a lot of deficit spending. during the bush years that's when they blew the clinton surplus a

claire danes is doing who was a big big movie star is doing television josh lucas is doing television dustin hoffman is doing television dustin hoffman has a big series these are people who are not finding the interesting roles what's more important for a series today having this time or a good story though me both will go if you choose i have a point of view. i think a good story has its own brings an audience is a star so you of course you need a good after but it's still work just brings people in for the first step is so so so so so so yeah good oh yeah i got it in the movies you have to bring people into the movie theater just for one and then you have to have a star i mean i mean the actor right but first series you have to have the story that's right and they will come through the scar one over and over again might i always i always think of. a movies as a one night stand and t.v. series as a long term relationship. and a long term relationship you need the stories you need the characters that you want to see week after week. i would like to ask you a question about about what'

this was not sent out by his opponent's campaign by the claire mccaskill campaign. it was sent out by a democratically leaning superpac. but this is obviously clearly designed to benefit her in the election. claire mccaskill is a very good campaigner. some of her ads in this election i should say, other than the talking mailer are among the best ads i've seen a democrat run anywhere. whatever you think about her politics, she's a very good campaigner. even has a very, very good campaigner it was almost impossible to imagine senator claire mccaskill being able to hold on to her senate seat this year just because she's the senator from missouri and missouri is trending more and more strongly republican. this is going to be a difficult race. right? the only reason she is not, however, just competing for this race, the only reason she's not just competitive for holding on to her seat, she's actually pretty far out ahead in her state right now. the only reason is because republicans picked a carl paladino type to run against her. the republicans picked todd akin. there are a lot of things ne

a rebuttal. i think it's interesting that claire talks about being a moderate and the fact that she is worried about the spending and the taxes and all, and yet i believe she supported $6.9 billion -- trillion dollars worth of deficit spending, and she calls herself a moderate. i guess the thing that comes to my mind is how much do you have to spend in deficit spending to become a liberal? >> moderator: senator? mccaskill: i will just say this. congressman akin has spent a lot of time talking about stimulus and other things he says is wasteful. i if you look at the record, the interesting thing is congressman akin is only opposed to stimulus if there's a democrat in the white house, because many times, over $400 billion in stimulus he voted for when president bush bush was president. december 20, 2001, 150 bill package, 2002, 108 bill. february 7, 2008, 145 billion. and a lot of deficit spending. during the bush years that's when they blew the clinton surplus, and kingman akin was right there asking for earmarks. >> moderator: next joan berkman representing the clayton chamber, will ask her question

claire mccaskell? >> we hope todd aiken wins. >> i understand rob's under a lot of pressure. i take him at his word that the nrc is not going to play there. but everything he said just about claire mccassell is a lie. >> do you guys support angus king to win in that election? >> let's be clear why in maine. the republican party forced olympia snow out of the united states senate and now they're trying to replace her with the tea party and if they thought we were going to just sit by and let that happen. >> i'm up against a hard break, we'll be right back. it's the pee to get back to you. a perfect time to join weight watchers and start losing weight and feeling good right now.

the comments they can stay in the senate race and is trying to unseat democratic incumbent claire mccaskill but a fundraiser recently taken last more points with female voters when he compared. gaskell to a dog referring to mccaskill a control the crowd she goes to washington d.c. it's a little bit like one of those dogs you know fads end of quote i think it is rape comment made it pretty clear he has very little respect for or understanding of women but this latest remark really seals the deal and the very very ugly arthur allen last week we told you a growing number of c.e.o.'s are pressuring their workers to vote for mitt romney allan head of a software company in florida is one of those c.e.o.'s allen has sent two e-mails to his employees first urged company employees to simply vote for romney but the second urged employees to donate up to twenty five hundred dollars out of their salaries to the romney campaign and now here's the real kicker charlie after urging employees to donate their money to romney allen also asked that employees defer some or all of their salary until december so that t

this weekend he talks about claire mccaskill -- here is a little cut from the debate. >> she goes to and red tape -- >> bill: so he compares claire mccaskill to a dog. what does he have with women. >> yeah. and remember when he called her unlady like in the debate. man that got my blood up. >> bill: it's just disgusting. i saw an article over the weekend that the tea party has really ended up helping democrats. they should lose indiana, they should lose missouri you go back to christine o'donnell in delaware, right? >> uh-huh. >> bill: it's a seat mike haskell right have won, but the tea party got rid of him. >> yeah. >> bill: what do you hear from massachusetts? >> oh, gosh she has been up ever since the convention. and scott brown started to go after elizabeth warren, and that is a tricky thing when you run against a woman. so he hasn't been able to make up the difference. >> bill: she has been, three to five points up. what is astounded to me is she who has never ran as a candidate before, and she is so strong. she has beaten hilary clinton on how much money she has raised. >> uh-h

more political news, todd akin taking a lot of heat again this morning for comparing democratic incumbent claire abandoned by his own party after those comments about legitimate rape. listen to what he said about mccaskill at a fund-raiser saturday in springfield, missouri. >> so she goes to washington, d.c. and it's a little bit like one of those dogs, you know, fetch, and she goes to washington, d.c. and gets all of these taxes and red cape and bureaucracy and executive orders and agencies and she brings all of this stuff and dumps it on us in missouri. >> now, since akin made the remark, no comment from mccaskill or the missouri republican. >>> political and religious leaders hold pretesters at bay in lebanon. he was killed on friday. protest tried to storm the prime minister office after denouncing it at the funeral. chaotic situation to say the least. >>> 37 minutes past the hour. sunday night football action, despite a sloppy first half and being down four starters, the steelers managed to keep things close against the bengals. in the fourth quarter with the game tied at 17, the first touc

richard luger would have been a shoe-in if he had been the nominee this year. claireill was a goner. those two seats now, i would say after tonight. >> the control room now believes that they have it. let's just see if we're staring at monitors or if we're actually going to hear this piece of debate. >> i too certainly stand for life. i know there are some who disagree and i respect their point of view. but i believe that life begins at conception. the only exception i have to have an abortion is in the case of the life of the mother. i struggled with it, i've come to realize that life is a gift from god and even when it begins in a horrible situation of rape and that it is something that god intended to happen. >> this is why the president has such a huge advantage on issues of women's health, on issues of abortion and has maintained such a large gender gap because people are not comfortable with where the republican party has gone on woman's right to choose. tim cane, when he rain for governor in 2005, the landscape has changed so dramatically, back then when he ran

republicans going to and fro in their support fiscally and ideological todd akin is still giving claire mcka cas kill aor her money. her camp says she's up nine points, the akin camp claims he's up two, dueling polls, but needless to say todd akin is still in this thing. you mentioned the republicans are not going to -- needless to say todd akin is still in this thing. you mentioned the republicans are not going to be piping money into this race, perhaps might have had romney not done so well at the debate. what's the mood on capitol hill visa vis the miss sourry? >> mitt romney, he flipped where his vision was on women so any mention of todd akin would be detrimental to that. akin's strategy has been to see seshlly ignore the national media when he was in d.c. he was going from every district in missouri, every locality for spreading this message we're not going to let the big rich money men dictate what -- who we are going to elect as missourians. one thing i find interesting about that, alex f you look at the senate map the money that is not going to akin is probably going to give him a boost in pla
