his name was gary hart. and gary hart beat walter mono mondale in the new hampshire primary.s do better than expected and win early. >> and you don't have to win, right? >> that's right. >> in '68, mccarthy did so well that ultimately president johnson opted not to run again, right? >> you see my material. i have nothing left to say. but that's absolutely right. but what i stressed last time the electorate the universe that votes in primary and caucuses, in the -- last time we had more than one ballot in a convention. it was in 1952 both parties, eisenhower and stevenson got nominated on the third ballot. the people that participate on the caucuses and primaries want to see a contest. it becomes a platform for their liberal views and they want a candidate to champion it. already o'malley who endorsed clinton four years ago is taking after her for not coming out against the trade bill for not -- >> real quick, is a fought-far nomination where you have multiple ballots dangerous for the party that has to go through that? >> no look at 1948 two people in both parties -- >> but b

what he is trying to do, you hear him and people around him, compare him to gary hart. he is the i am the data-driven progressive, and that doesn't really excite anybody, and sanders has the progressive market covered. i think he will try to frame himself as the big city mayor, but, again, baltimore is good but also bad over the last couple weeks. >> and i think they have to worry more about bernie sanders, he could be the candidate of the summer and potentially the fall of 2015. when we were giggling about the thoughts of bernie sanders doing this, and he was making trips to iowa, and he said i know how it works, and i know how to talk to these people. >> you hit double digits in presidential polls and anything you ever said or done becomes relevant and he hits double digits and starts moving up, and then you see an article about the vermont statesmen, where he talks about women fantasizing about rape. i didn't even want to speak that sentence, but i did. if you are a young person going to work for bernie sanders and hearing this is what he did 40 years ago? >> his bas

he used to work for gary hart. he mounted a campaign in the 1908s twice.ame close to winning the democratic nomination. that's what he's hoping to repeat here. he looks at bernie sanders, he's glad there's a liberal alternative, ultimately not a guy they think will be president. hillary clinton, not liberal enough for a lot of the base. he's going to be there. he's younger. he's represents a new type of leadership in their mind. he thinks he can sweep in kind of late at the last minute in iowa and gain momentum on to represent a newer generation of democrats. >> i want to pick up where you are. you're in baltimore. he was mayor. considering the recent events there, how might that affect him on the national stage? >> reporter: yeah, alex. it's a great question. i mean i talked to a donor yesterday who said that the events have helped crystallize o'malley's thinking about running for president. crime was the big reason he ran for mayor. he literally announced his campaign in front of an open air drug market. on the other hand, he's been criticized and there

in 1984 it was little-known senator gary hart who beat expectations and finished second in iowa to theno new hampshire and stun walter mondale, beating him by ten points. >> boy, did new hampshire come up with a surprising finish tonight. >> hart's candidacy collapsed, but his victory exposed weakness in mondale. in november, ronald reagan carried 49 of 50 states. in 2012 mitt romney beat rick santorum, but never recovered from santorum's bruising. a populist insurgent is poised to become the latest protest vehicle, pushing hillary clinton to the left and potentially exposing vulnerability that could help republicans in the fall. and the democratic presidential candidate senator bernie sanders joins me now. welcome back to "meet the press." let me start with an issue you are going to be dealing with in a few hours. i know you'll be flying back from minneapolis to washington for this special senate session, nsa, patriot act session 215. i assume you are a supporter of the usa freedom act. is that where you are going to be voting? >> i may well be voting for it. it doesn't go as far as i

(shutter clicks) capturing iconic landscapes, beautiful waterfalls... ...and lining up yosemite valley to perfectly frame the rising moon. as a photographer what's it like to capture the ultimate picture in yosemite? >> oh it's euphoria, it's great. for me, it's trying to come with something that i've never seen which isn't really easy it's on the most photographed locations in the world. >> reporter: on this expedition hart and his students are chasing a photo of a fleeting natural phenomenon, which can occur on a clear night only a couple times each year, when the full moon hits a misty spray from yosemite falls at just the right angle to create a moonbow- - a nighttime rainbow that is visible only through a camera's

one is a generational argument, he's younger, he says he's fresher in the model of gary hart who he workedough, he thinks he can break through that way. either a credible alternative to hillary clinton on her left. as o'malley people see it that's not bernie sanders. though he's polling from 15% to 18% in iowa and new hampshire while o'malley's down in 2% to 3% range, they think democrats will come to their senses and realize the soeshist from vermont is not a credible guy to be the democratic nominee. and there's o'malley the younger guy who agrees with a lot of things of bernie sanders and then he can sweep in. >> if o'malley gets 2% to 3% consistently, he has nowhere to go but up. >> part of it is name i.d. when you announce your bid, you get a lot of press coverage. a lot of folks who live and breathe watching msnbc don't know who the major players are. these folks are able to go on tv get covered and bring up their name recognition. i think the danger for martin o'malley in a lot of this race is if bernie sanders is the one raising more money, drawing bigger crowds to announcements we

he came up in politics in presidential politics working for gary hart in his campaigns in the '80s. inevitable front runner always stumbles and there's someone there that has to be sophisticated and smart enough of a politician to take advantage of it. hillary clinton will stumble. there will be a moment where the polls will narrow because they can't go anywhere but down and he will have a moment to seize that opportunity. the big problem is if she really implodes there are @other democrats throughout that will jump into the race. joe biden, maybe even al gore. there are establishment figures that will jump in if something happens. >> mabel even elizabeth warren. >> had some have suggested that o'malley is really running for the vice presidential running spot. maybe for a cabinet position. he doesn't really think he can beat hillary clinton. >> people run for different reasons. some run to win. some run for issue candidates. with o'malley it seems a lot more like he is in the wing for senator clinton if something happens to her or like you mentioned, if her candidacy implodes there

he is focusing squarely on iowa a state he cut his teeth as a political organizer working for gary hart'sentor for him trying to emulate what barack obama did defeating hillary clinton. alex seitz-wald thank you from baltimore. >>> new revelations from the criminal indictment of former house speaker dennis hastert that says in 2010 hastert agreed to pay someone from his hometown of yorkville, illinois $3.5 million to conceal a, quote, past misconduct. it doesn't spell out what that misconduct was nor who that person is. but federal law enforcement sources telling msnbc news the payment relate to hassers's days as a coach and sexual misconduct with a student. a former school wrestler and assistant coach he worked with are coming to his defense. >> the gentleman was a super professional, as a teacher, a coach, as a human being. i would refer to him as my second father. >> there isn't anything that happened in the six years that i worked with denny that would ever make me believe there was anything improper. >> hastert expected to be arraigned as early as this coming week. joining me is msnb
