you know, this road, this road on this campaign started 19 months ago. 581 days ago. when i kicked off the campaign from the senate from the steps of my back porch just a few miles from here. over 19 months we traveled more than 60,000 miles. we were joined by an unprecedented 50,000 grass root supporters. [ cheers and applause ] and even though we faced -- >> you're listening to newly senator elect tim kaine who is going to be going to capitol hill to represent the state of virginia. you heard tim kaine break the news via nbc news, we were also able to report the news via fox news, which fox news has declared barack obama will be elected to a second term as president of the united states. >> we should mention barack obama was declared winner in ohio, which pushed him over that magic number. that 270 it needed electoral votes to win. let's go to our own tom fitzgerald. >> reporter: just about an hour ago, you were sitting not far from where we are now, you said this is starting to end. what was it that was going on an hour agatha you saw indicated that this race may b

and again, you heard the large explosion just moments ago. now it's silence once again sxept for the drones circling. >> as you're speaking, the clock is up on the bug and it's 2:08 in the morning there. can you imagine being rattled out of your sleep by that? we're going to come back to you in a bit. i'm told you're needed by other parts of the network. we're going to get back to you. we'll have the video for you. thank you, anderson. be safe, okay. >> sure, thanks. >> join anderson tonight, 8:00 p.m. eastern and 10:00 eastern for a special edition of ac 360 live from gaza. benjamin netanyahu said he's prepared to escalate military operations if the rockets don't stop falling. our chief political anchor wolf blitzer has more on israel's iron dome defense system now. >> the iron dome is really a very successful program so far. it's only been in business now for a little more than a year. but the israelis have come up with this anti-missile, anti-rocket system where they get word of what's coming in and they launch, this iron dome goes into ac

>> the time was about 35 years ago. unfortunately, the way the global economy's changing, it's very difficult to negotiate anything as a union and that's why unionization rates in the private sector are shrinking and will continue to shrink. you can't fight the global markets, and difficult to negotiate the benefit packages people use today get 20, 30, 40 years ago, to ease he to move off shore and outsource. and it's a strange one, not the way you see a damage mostly to profits and also the economy. the state with the highest union rate is new york, a lower unemployment rate than north carolina and 2.9 versus 28% because the unions actually stopped in some cases that's not good for the economy and it keeps the unemployment artificially high and removes flexibility to the employer which can hurt the economy in the long run and gep again, you don't see it in the unemployment rate. >> gary b, respond to that. >> steve made an interesting point and he said, you know, our economy is much stronger and heavily unionized. and

this is what happened four years ago.bout 28% of the electorates said they were evangelical voters. watch where it is in ohio, colorado and if governor romney can get eight in ten of those votes, he has a good shot in this election. the question is, is it the obama coalition of 2008 or 2012. if they can re-create the magic of four years ago, they'll be in good shape. this battle is intense. >> it certainly is. and we're counting down to election day in america, almost here. it could come down to a handful of states that could go either way. let's check in on three of the states. don lemon is in ohio, poppy harlow is in ohio. don? >> anderson, the strategy here is to get as many people out to early vote as possible. i've had the chance to go to several polling places in hamilton county, franklin county, and today in montgomery county here in the columbus area, when i went out to check out the polls to see how early voting was going, i was stunned by the number of people i saw. the lines were around the building. people wai

this is how it looked four years ago.esident obama won 52% to john mccain 47%. 81% of the voters in ohio are white. president obama has to win a significant number of white voters, but not all of them. 12% black voters. 3% hispanic. a lot of union voters in ohio. 7% unemployment in ohio. the economy in ohio has been improving greatly because of the auto bail out. voters are very aware of what's going on in the economy and in their state, the economy is looking better. >> we want to turn our attention to the state of florida, the biggest swing state up for grabs. we are expecting president obama will carry the southern part of the state. what comes into play is the northern part. it's 132 miles that stretches from tampa to orlando to daytona beach. when we talk about that northern part, 11 million voters in the state of florida. 55%, six counties lie along that i-4 corridor. you can see how important it is. keep in mind, a lot of undecideds live right there in the northern part of the state. let's see how this shaped up fo

unfortunately you have the request for continuance 24 hours ago. how much notice did she have that it was happening today and we get the request yesterday? i think that's very problematic. on the other hand, you are going to force her to present her case without her lawyer and i think that's difficult. >> i have another question. how could she have requested this on such short notice for us because i thought we were very clear at our last meeting that we gave them an extension until december, and that was last month. >> i'm sorry, can i interrupt one second? sonia has corrected me. still, she would have to present her case for why she should get rehearing. it's still the same problem that you are putting her in a position of having to present a case without her chosen counsel. >> she requested this a long time ago, this hearing, not 24 hours. is that what you are correcting? that's what i'm confused about. >> she requested rehearing. >> in october, early october. >> i'm saying she requested this continuance of this matter, of the rehearing request,

years ago there was a big crowd.than that came out that night. becoming a d.c. tradition to come down to the white house night.tion people still streaming down and we've got thousands of folks this point at the white house very, very festive mood down here. >> good deal. festive is one way to put it. let's go someplace things are quite festive right now in chicago. scott, at the obama chicago.ers there in scott, what's the word there? well, they're still celebrating here in chicago. course they would love to the president. that hasn't happened yet haven't heard from mitt romney and there is that those ohio numbers but that's not dissuading the crowd here at all. told the colorado declaration and the president despite not having taken the podium did send out an e-mail to supporters. kind of sums up what's appening here. that this o know wasn't fate this wasn't an accident you made this happen you organized yourself block by block took ownership of the wasn't and when it pressed forward. are the people we need. it is t

thank god we had that sea wall that was built only two years ago. other wise this town would have been washed away. >> many in atlantic city and ocean city may have thought they might be washed away. downed power lines and left casino parking lots looking like lakes. >> never in my life have i seen such devastation, my reaction is there's no way to fight with mother nature. >> reporter: the storm hit new england just as hard. severe weather caused major airports in boston and connecticut to experience long delays. some airlines even cancelled flights. schools shut down, the coast guard warned boaters to stay in port. one fishing vessel sank its crew had to be rescued. >> farther inland the snow meat commuting miserable to impossible in many areas. residents will be digging out for days to come. so far this storm has been responsible for five deaths and residents in the east are bracing for more. the official start of winter is still 10 days away. >> in 1960 the northeast saw one of its worse storm ever, hurricane donna. donna held the record for sus

with the head of the gold panners family he first met a year ago. twenty grams then. much more modest when the youngest son killed took his life the best in the family had been lost when the started a gram of gold could be sold for a thousand. that's around twenty dollars now the prices. has a different figure in mind. right. every day is different but on average we get about a gram and a half a day last time i sold some gold for about three hundred dollars it's good if we have enough money to buy the necessities like flour tea sugar and salt is not that expensive doesn't make you rich it's the end of the haymaking season now so soon everyone will be at the river painting winter is coming. only in the winter it's dangerous to do it in the summer. when soil is frozen it gets stronger the soil will dig out is taken to the river where it is broken down by the water this new sand is then pound for. unfortunately while digging there is always the threat of being killed in a. brother kill used to work in these makeshift mines dug into the rocky banks of the river. my brothe

they closed 30 minutes ago. lopsided victory at the moment for barack obama, but with just 7% of precincts reporting, think nothing of that. the state of virginia still in play. we will be watching that throughout the night. 12 percent of precincts reporting, and right now, mitt romney has a healthy lead in a state of virginia, but again, virginia is a number of different demographics within one, so whatever precincts reporting, we do not even know yet. to decide where va would go is way too early. north carolina is important for us tonight. north carolina has been close throughout the evening and still is. 23% of precincts reporting. at some point we will have a call here, but not now. the state of missouri also to close to call, closing in just the last few minutes. a state of missouri to close to call in the early going, and the state of tennessee, the volunteer state with less than 1% of precincts reporting -- again, it looks lopsided. it is not. a number of other states just close. new jersey, oklahoma -- n

you know who that was four years ago. so you do know who that was four years ago. that's what president obama when he was candidate said four years ago and that's exactly what he has become. here's the good news. we don't have to take this anymore. [applause] the good news is we don't have to settle for this. we can do better than this. we need leadership, we need mitt romney as our next president of the united states. [applause] this is a time for big ideas. this is a time for a real reform for real recovery. this is who mitt romney is. look at this man's life. achievements, leadership. look at what he's done in the private sector. he helped create tens of,000 thousands of jobs. being successful, that's a good thing. we believe in success. we want more of it. this is a man who reached across the aisle, who didn't demonize democrats. he worked with them. he found common ground and got things down. -- done. he balanced a budget without raising taxes. that's the kind of leadership we need. [applause] ladies and gentlemen, this is big and it's bigger than just paychec

that baghdad handled it reports on saturday first suggested iraq had pulled the contract just a month ago which was quickly denied by the iraqi defense minister the four billion dollar deal would make russia iraq's second largest arms supplier after the u.s. now government and business consultant consultant christophe horse tells us that any complications with the deal are down to washington. if this deal head to gone through that would have meant for the euro keep people kind of you know starting a balanced situation of the living east and with sort of see that would be healthy for the iraqi people because this is. geographical very simple geographical situation now putting this deal under pressure you know that means that the u.s. is insisting on a monopole in the region it is it is very clear hugo it is nobbs and mr maliki who is calling the shots in iraq you policies that is the us right now in that they are not able you know to. petition just a little you that is a very sad story for washington and it doesn't bear good sides with the future. let's get to more of today's news for you

they're 400% share of electorate than years ago.for the republicans. >> a couple of statistics that have to send shutters 2042, as we know, this is projected to be a nonwhite minority nation. and 35.6% of hispanics are under the age of 18. so there it is. but we have a projection to make. without our music. we need our music. many of you are tweeting you that our projection jingle sounds like the sound of the nfl plays before the draft is made. but abc news is ready to project that republicans will retain control of the house. maybe that is a surprise, but this is early, jon karl? >> this is not a surprise, but democrats needed just 25 seats. republicans could actually pick up a seat or two. now, the big question becomes what happens when nancy pelosi -- she was the speaker of the house. a lot of people expected her to retire when the democrats lost control two years ago. she stayed on as minority leader to lead her party back to majority. that has not happened, does nancy pelosi stay on? >> the last time i interviewed nancy pelosi,

an interesting and ago i spoke with eight man at this a few minutes ago and he is from england and saidfriday's sales. he came to the u.s. to cashman, in part. >> i can get on my christmas shopping and four quarter the price compared to england. i get all this done and i don't have to worry about shopping in december. >> do people get jealous when you tell them the great deals you got back in england? >> of course >> if you're planning on coming out here you should know the parking is limited. then set up a secondary parking lot in a dirt lot across the street. the number of parking spaces are limited and plan ahead. perhaps now is the best opportunity to come out before the afternoon rush kicks in. >> here is the same black friday chaos across the country west michigan two people were taken away in handcuffs at the woodland mall and can land after a fight broke out there. pepper spray was used in the incident. that happened right in front of the j.c. penney store. >> plenty of sunshine already and we will continue to see that later on today. temperatures will be in the '60s and '70s. a

, four years ago. the environment will dictate a lot of how much latitude both sides have. first, the american people are fed up with congress and with politics. they want our leaders to bring some consensus to solving problems. also, because barack obama will not stand for reelection again, at least he says he won't, that takes the political tension out of this to some extent. there is always political tension. but that gives republicans more latitude to bringing accommodation to finding a solution. >> everyone is talking about finding a compromise. but let's face it, there are fewer liberal republicans, fewer democrats on capitol hill. fewer people like yourself who have worked on both sides. the politics is a point is that the moment. >> it is. and that is expected after a hard-fought, tough, bitter election, as much as any as i have seen. you'll have to let that drain out. but you do not need everybody to make a deal. you need 60 out of 100. and you need a majority in the house. you concentrate on

, if not a year ago. the grant is specifically targeted toward assisting our office in developing and maintaining specialized prosecutors and investigators -- sorry, singular. specialized prosecutor and investigator in area of dealing with mortgage fraud and associated type crimes. san francisco is a city that is very rich area for purposes of these type of frauds and scams to occur. notably the landscape encompasses people that own a lot of property or people that own property that's real estate value have appreciated. there's a lot of equity and people that purchase during the housing market so there are people at risk of foreclosure. this makes a rich environment for people to commit fraud and scams. they are preying on people that have property or equity in the property so they can take the money in the property. they have people desperate in need of relief from mortgages. there's a lot of activity in san francisco. what this enables our office to do is create a specialized unit. to continue to create

san francisco down 16 cents from a week ago.kland the price fell almost 20 cents. >>> appa lot of kids came down with something called giants fever on parade day. the san francisco unified school district said thousands of kids played hooky last wednesday, presumably to attend the world series parade. we saw a lot of kids from all over california. more than 4100 students in san francisco were absent that day, that cost the district nearly $160,000 in california funding. the state pays $38 a day for a student who shows up to school. the majority of school skippers were high school students. >> some tell us they were learning a lesson in perseverance and determination. >> that works we can go with that. >>> we have a winning weather forecast, if you like record temperatures. >> if you don't, it will change quickly. you can keep temperatures like this around for too many days. good morning, beautiful picture of the sun washing over san jose now. it will look almost the same no matter where we go, a little haze, not a spare the air

am i better off today than i was four years ago.o where we need to be? i happen believe romney had the best positive message tore change. >> 87 percent of the ads this election cycle have been negative. people say they hate them but the polls show they are effective. do they turn people off or do they work? >> it is not a healthy thing spiritually. i think at the end of the day americans want to move in a positive direction. we are moving in a positive direction. what did not happen four years ago was a positive -- well an accurate description of where we really were. we were really in the midst of the great depression. we were losing 365,000 a month. we are adding jobs, now should we be adding more? y. it took fdr a lot. >> can they ignore them and keep a positive message. >> surrogates fight back against negative campaigning. he hasn't taken the base that the president and surrogates have delivered for us. he has taken the high road. leadership requires us to look forward not look back. the president has made president bush the ex

i was there i think just a few days ago. >> a long time ago but it was just a few days. >> brown: very close but in the end went to the president. >> by it seems like not a small margin. we have very few returns in on that and they were able to make these projections in that case. we're looking a lot at the senate race there where you have congresswoman tammy baldwin up against former governor tommy thompson. it looks like it could be a good night for her. this is really a race that again the democrats, a retiring senator herb coal. the democrats needed to hold that seat. it was looking more and more competitive. >> brown: the president was there just the other day with bruce springsteen at madison. he felt like he either had to go there to shore it up or something just even in the last day or two. >> it wasn't that long ago that scott walker survived that recall. but in those exit polls on that gubernatorial recall it showed that the president actually had the advantage. you know, people want to look at one race and automatically sait means something. it doesn't. the candidates matter

but that was long ago it was a great joy but we still panning then and went home to celebrate. every morning i ask for help so that he gives me gold and i know that he will give it to me. always helps me. i find gold every day sometimes more sometimes less. one night i had a dream that i came across a nugget weighing ten kilograms and i was giving this gold away to other people in my dream and the next morning after that dream i panned a lot of gold. in. the water in the golden river is incredibly cold pending can take up to six hours a day. and his brothers have to work neat high in water they often get painful cramps in their legs and have to rest on the riverbank. searching for gold isn't a bad thing the clean river gives us pure goold sends it to us it's much better to be working here standing in clean water and searching for gold and being a guest worker in russia. to live because wealth is now limited to his parents. just like elton back he's a father of two he also used to pound rivers for gold. two years ago to their bikes leg was amputated spending so much time in the

two weeks ago, i was seeing where they were made. but of the $1,000 for an apple computer, only about $80 or $90 stays in china. the rest is with apple and with the screen makers and advertisers and retailers and fed ex and all the rest. and so, we have a trade deficit with china. the debt that the chinese hold over us actually they view as a weakness on our side for them, rather than us. number one, it makes them hostage to the value of our dollar and to our financial markets. if we're having a discussion in china, people would say, "what are we thinking, having all our savings in these u.s. treasury notes? you know, what if they default? what -- the interest, what if they have runaway inflation, et cetera, et cetera?" it's the imbalance between the two countries is a sign of imbalance in both of our systems. we've been too debt dependent and too over consumptive. they have been too export dependent and they haven't lived as well as they should. a poor country is lending money to a rich country. that is odd and needs to change and w

you think the turnout is higher than it was four years ago? >> i think it will be because people know what is at stake in this election. these are very tough times for americans in this world and i think the president knows it on both sides. it's to bring those forces together we have been separated and i believe the president as our leader will do that in this term and i hope the opposition loyal as they must will give them the chance to really bring this country together. >> what if he loses? >> i don't expect him to lose and even if he was to that would want romney to bring this country together. my brother is traveling out of the country on business and in joy in life right now. i talked to him today yes i haven't talked to him tonight that. >> thank you very much for joining us. >> whenever you see bill daley on election night you think of al gore he was the campaign manager for al gore witchy won the overall vote but he lost to the electoral race. he was ready to pull the plug until he said you are not quitting. before we get to this gen

over a month ago, new developments. a bone fragment belonging to a child was found in a well out in stockton after the family believes their daughter was killed by the speed freak killers. it turned out other bones were mixed in. murch is waiting to see if one of the bones might be long to michaela. >> i wonder if this is the last year we do this. although, i think that probably regardless of the results of the testing of that fragment, i'll probably still be here every year because i do this to remember michaela. >> reporter: michaela's brother sang a song for her this morning. there was a delay in testing that bone fragment. investigators wanted it to be completed by now, but they had to send it to a second lab that specializes in testing of older small bones. it may take a while. they are saying they hope to have the test results in within six weeks. reporting live in hayward, christie smith, nbc bay area news. >>> the bishop of san jose diocese is apologizing after a convicted sex offender was allowed to volunteer a

american viewers feeling better than they were a year ago. the queion is how much does tha translte into cashing-- making purchasing at the store. >> brown: nariman behravesh, consumers are feeling better. are businesses feeling a little better? are they investing? are they hiring? how does that work? >> well, in a worrying way they're not. and we do have the disconnect in the u.s. economy between consumers on the one hand-- and they account for 70% of the economy-- but they're feeling fairly good about things. whereas businesses are not, and businesses tend to be more worried about things like the fiscal cliff, they're more worried about the troubles in europe, they're more worried about the slowdown in china. you do have the disconnect. the big concern is which way is it going to go? who is going to win this tug-of-war? so far it's the consumer but let's hope it's not the other direction because as i said, let's hope that the businesses will eventually come around to thinking about things the way consumers are. . >> brown: nancy cohen, i wa

a very different campaign from four years ago. four years ago he rode a wave of hope and change.s year he had to beat a wave back and he did it in a campaign that was brutal on mitt romney but also brilliant in turning out the vote and he got a huge victory. . >> the economy has suffered where he had a right direction number where they thought he could be beaten. this is going to bring both sides to reflect on this because there are many problems that happened but the republicans are faced with the polls were right. all the polls were right. what the republicans argued against and said no we're going to change it, it democrat happen and they're going to have to face a future where there's no leader of the party. >> e had always said he was a fourth quarter closer but i want to bring in nicole now for your thoughts well, look, i think this was a campaign that has always had its doubters. this was a primary where he was sort of the third, fourth, fifth choice. we romanced mitch daniels and fell in love with everybody that wasn't running as a party and that carried over. he never st

this happening just a few moments ago. it was the first rocket attack we have seen in southern israel in the last several hours. now, as for the question about the hamas leadership, as hamas -- as i sudden say as gaza came under fire today by the israelis. the leader, exiled leader of hamas, michelle was speaking in cairo, that's where the cease-fire discussions are taking place. and he said that hamas is not calling for any ground war or escalation, but despite the fact that hamas over the last year has fired more than 700 rockets into israel, he said israel is the aggressor in this conflict. listen to what he said. >> we will not accept any -- they are the ones who attack. a cease-fire will cure when our demands are met. >> just what are those demands? two key points that the hamas wants to make. they want an end to what they described as targeted assassinations and also want an end to the israeli blockade of gaza. shepard, in another late-breaking development, we are just getting word now that the israeli military strik

when ask you are we better off now than four years ago, people remember four years ago the economy was going off a cliff and largely don't blame the president for that. and i think the second part is back to what john was saying. demographics is destiny. a lot more now than it has been in the past. and we have to almost throw out the conventional wisdom that it's things like the jobs numbers that matter. when you look at the demographics of this race, the president has such a commanding lead among african-americans. among hispanics. that it counterbalances mitt romney's lead among older white voters. and it makes it very difficult. if the electorate is still something like 26% minority, barack obama -- chris: i got to get the romney side. the burden, the remoteness, the fact that not even 30% of the people think he connects with their real lives. >> that's his problem. that's his problem. when you look at the polls over and over again, who is the person that understands my problem, who feels my pain, it's by 2-1 or 3-1, the president of the united states against mitt romney. the big pr

it flushed yesterday, it flushed 10 years ago, what's the problem? narrator: atlanta is a rapidly growing urban area. its primary source of drinking water is the chattahoochee river, which also provides water to many downstream communities. but its infrastructure is dangerously old, without outdated facilities and combined sewer overflows polluting the watershed. the city faces strict consent decrees and lawsuits, along with a severe lack of funding. man: when i started working for the city of atlanta in the late '70s, we were approaching that point in time where a lot was going to be needed, in terms of rehabilitation and upkeep. most of the very large pipes were at least 80 years old. we had needs that were identified in the '50s and in the '60s and in the '70s that were deferred. woman: we are urging that we all try to find a way to overcome the obstacles and limitations that might exist. woman: when i was running for office, i met someone who knew mayor hartsfield, who, in the late 1960s, said, "i don't know who the next mayor will be, "but i kno

we saw a year-and-a-half ago, the military in that country, get involved.e mentioned moments ago, that might be potentially the next step in all of this. talk to me about those people on the ground, right now. >> reporter: numbers smaller today than yesterday. but they are digging in. they set up tents and they say they are not going away. and, both sides are really calling out for numbers. a test of wills, right now, between the president and his supporters, and those who think he is trying to become a dictator. something people here have fought against a year ago and many are willing to fight against again. we have seen violence and now with tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands due out on the street in the days ahead we could see more violence here in the short-term, harris. >> harris: and people, digging in with the tents and spending the night in some cases, steve harrigan, thank you very much. we'll come back to you as the news warrants on this. egypt's road to democracy has been a shake one at best. you may recall it was january 25 of last
