joining me is josh barrow and reporter kate nocera. you are here and not in washington but it's in terms of the optimism on the hill, we know that boehner and pelosi have statements. we'll read those going into this suggest. but is there a sense that anything will get done in the lame duck session or in january? >> not really. the senate might take up some stuff. they have to get things done to avoid a government shutdown. >> that is the biggest ticket item. >> and if we know anything about this congress, their attention span is minimal. >> to be you've mystic about it. >> so they can't focus on more than one big ticket item at a time. i would be surprised to see anything other than it. >> and the speaker saying if you play with matches you get burned and the president and his advisers saying this is going to happen. >> it's a strange threat. the odds that a comprehensive immigration reform bill will pass in the next two years are zero regardless of what the white house does. look at the election cycle. eric canter went down in a prima

. >> to barrow a phrase, we have super sized delays out there on a couple of our highways this evening. southbound side, you are barely moving as you can see from penn's landing to the girard point bridge, a delay attributable to nasty sun glare with the sun going down now things should get better, speeds of just 10 miles per hour by broad street, if you get by the flyers game you'll get stuck in the jam. and by love park that is out of the way and one at 55th and cobb's creek parkway and i don't want to send you to the schuylkill eastbound because it too say parking lot, we had the late running construction eastbound by passyunk avenue just cleared out and heavy delays from city avenue, stick with the river drive like the mlk. yes super sized. >> now i want fries. >> that is the kind of super sized you meant. >>> gun fire erupts inside of the library at florida state university injuring three people, the latest on the gunman and three people coming up. >>> we reached a high of 50 degrees today but the bitter cold returns tonight. and we'll talk about windchills tomorrow in the accuwea

barrow, for five minutes. mr. barrow: thank you, madam speaker. madam speaker, i don't know if this will be the last time i address this house but i can think of no more appropriate subject on the occasion than to honor those who have worked with me in the last 10 years serving the people of the 12th district of georgia. i met thousands of people, both in georgia and washington, i'll count as friends and colleagues for the rest of my life. but any member of congress can tell you that the key to a successful congressional office is to gather the best and brightest people to serve the people we represent. i'm honored to have served with the staff who are known on capitol hill as among the hardest working and most effective. my staff have worked under some very difficult circumstances, facing what many called insurmountable odds and put in long hours to make sure that the 12th district of georgia received representation they've never seen before. my success in this position is because of their dedication to this office. i'd like to recognize the staf

over the years between 1950 and 2000 the barrow scientists began to define the model. what we begin to discover if there are networks of attention in our brain that discover we can literally watch inside the brain blood flow and discover when you were attending to one thing and you shift your attention, you can see that the load shifts. you can't do those things. you can't juggle both things. again that understanding by the narrow scientist goes all the way back to 1948. [speaking in spanish so we are talking about a creature with limited capacity. we are destined to delve into our environment and attention is if you are paying attention to something, you're going to be blind to -- if you are paying attention to, say your cell phone call, you are literally blind, the visual signals when a child jumps into the streets etc.. so come add to this lets talk a little bit about the aware of the technology. you wrote about the social technology and i thought that was really fascinating. >> guest: one is the social connection, and again it is a survival mechanism. in fact as we

it is colder in oklahoma city right now than it is in barrow, alaska. and also, nome is at 37, warmer than dallas. so all the cold air that is typically up there in the arctic circle, up there in alaska has spilled down. you can see the white there. that's the cold air coming southward and it settled in for montana from north texas. a little bit has bleeded to the east, but not a ton. and now it feels like january out there. we do have a little bit of snow to deal with. as we go throughout tomorrow morning, we could get an inch or two there in areas of southern new england. we have a lot of snow this morning right around lake erie and ontario, even some snowflakes this morning reported in areas like little rock and memphis. as far as the worst weather in the country today, frances, how about portland, oregon? expecting 3 to 5 inches of snow. it will be the earliest they've ever had that amount of snow. so, coast to coast with this one. >> not alaska, though. >> we're all getting our share. they've got it good. >>> take you across the street now here at

but it was 32 in barrow, alaska. which is above the arctic circle. there's breaking news tonight on that intruder who evaded the secret service and bolted into the white house last september. nancy cordes has just gotten ahold of the departmofent homeland security's investigation of the secret service response. >> reporter: the homeland security report found that a series of flaws enabled omar gonzalez to make it all the way into the white house, including an improper setting on the secret serce radio system, which prevented some officers from learning of the intrusion. key posts inside the white house had muted emergency communication system receivers. aging equipment meant some agents heard only unintelligible noise. the report says three secret service officers actually recognized gonzalez an hour before he jumped the fence as the man who had carried a hatchet near the white house three weeks earlier. but when gonzalez did climb over, some of the closest officers didn't see him as their views were obstructed by a construction project along the fen

joining me to talk about this is our panel, katrina vanden hogan and josh barrow national correspondent for the upshot, "new york times" and msnbc contributor. in retrospect, you can't pull it off. everyone understands you're a democrat, barack obama is a democrat. you got to make a forthright defense of the guy's record. >> i think it goes to the fundamentals dividing the democratic party, but you also saw a map, right, with these are states barack obama lost in 2012, right? no, but you could see it with the coal and the guns and the issues that are really tough for a national democratic party because there are factions within this party. this is not a new problem. there's a democratic wing of the democratic party, there's an establishment wing, a more conservative wing. but to go into states like west virginia and if you speak -- i've always believed this. if you speak with a strong economic populous message and a consistent one and point, president's not been a great salesman, but point to some of those achievements. >> particularly on obama care. the three states that have had the b

here to tell us why, josh barrow. so d.c. voted to basically legalize marijuana. what happens next? the whim of congress. there's a law that was passed in 1973 giving the district home rule. before that, all of its laws were made by congress. and so congress has in many cases over the last 40 years put things in appropriations bills or other pieces of legislations that basically say well, d.c. passed this law but not really. we're going to override it. they did that, for example, with a domestic partnership law that the district passed in 1992 before gay marriage was on the agenda in any of the states. they did that with needle exchange and a variety of other things. even a law on the height of buildings is a federal law. >> and congress can do this whenever it wants? >> congress could repeal the home rule law entirely if it wanted. >> but on the pot thing, it's been voted in by the voters. congress can act to basically make that inoperative whenever they feel like it. >> right. typically it would be done in an appropriations bill. it would have to pass both the house and senate and

now friend of the show, sometimes cyclist, josh barrow from his office crunching at the "new york times, it's not a wave election. do you understand why that is, josh? >> well, i mean, i think that's overstating the case for democrats a little bit. i think what that means, though, is this is a senate map that's very favorable for republicans. republicans if they take back the senate or even if they don't take it back, the gains they will make will be in states like south dakota, montana, north carolina, louisiana, places that should be places where republicans run strongly.

on the flipside, someone like john barrow of georgia. someone who has been republicans have been targeting since he was first elected. i think that he's amazing as a politician because you have a harvard educated lawyer and when you look at that it is a terrible southern southern accent but it starts getting deeper and deeper and he has been a survivor and for him to lose by a considerable margin, i think it is telling. the only white white males of the democratic left is good to be david price of north carolina nick rayhaul lost. those were surprising to me. >> you mentioned arkansas. to see mark pryor lose by 18 points, west lincoln lost by 21 points and we covered her race completely different than mark pryor. >> we were told that mark pryor is no blanche lincoln >> that is a perfect segue to the next question. sue rothenberg wrote a column about the results and what happened and i'm going to read a small portion and you can read the whole call on rollcall.com. the pollsters and operatives intentionally misled reporters and handicappe

josh barrow on the politics of all that. but before that "the cycle's" chief meteorologist will be here with your weather report. out pr. but did you know we also support hospitals using electronic health records for more than 30 million patients? or that our software helps over 20 million smartphone users remotely configure e-mail every month? or how about processing nearly $5 billion in electronic toll payments a year? in fact, today's xerox is working in surprising ways to help companies simplify the way work gets done and life gets lived. with xerox, you're ready for real business. and life gets lived. americans drink 48 billion that's enough plastic bottles to stretch around the earth 230 times. each brita filter can replace 300 of those. clean. clear. brita water. nothing is better. you never dwell on how you don't it was made...ut it... it's just a blanket after all... but when everything else has been lost, the comfort it provides is immeasurable. the america red cross brings hope and help to people in need every 8 m

now friend of the show, sometimes cyclist, josh barrow from his office crunching at the "new york times." welcome, josh. it looks like republicans will make significant gains tomorrow. but chuck todd and others are saying, it's not a wave election. do you understand why that is, josh? >> well, i mean, i think that's overstating the case for democrats a little bit. i think what that means, though, is this is a senate map that's very favorable for republicans. republicans if they take back the senate or even if they don't take it back, the gains they will make will be in states like south dakota, montana, north carolina, louisiana, places that should be places where republicans run strongly. and then there's sort of reach states where republicans can pick up the seats to get a majority or even more comfortable majority are places like iowa, colorado, places traditionally politically competitive. none of these are really reaches for republicans in the way states they have won senate races for in the last few years. massachusetts, wisconsin, somewhat more democrat-leaning states they've won

the one exception being somebody like a john barrow in georgia or when we had jim matheson and salt lake city, utah. they were in the minority and i know there was a frustration there because they were not going to get votes on the things they wanted to do and they had to take votes on things they do not want to like guns. those folks are no longer part of the coalition. maybe the portray smaller anti-wave or not so big win. let's say this election does not go the republican direction. what are the implications of that? what is the atmosphere going to be like after that? about theright primaries and democratic side. they are particularly important the fact they are winning and not driven by audiological conditions. it is a fact of life. correct.nt to maybe i'm not saying there's not going to be a republican wave but we are not sure how to define that. the racesit as all breaking one way or another. there was always a way. i am not sure what is unique about it. we need to be clear about that. the third point want to make is there are no permanent locks on anything anymore. another style l

barrow was not on the ballot. host: i wanted to ask a question about spending because the north carolina race which you earlier referenced is on track to be the most expensive senate race of this cycle and probably history. and i'm wondering about when the story is rin of this year's campaigns, what will the headline be about money? guest: my gosh, you know, it's only going to get more and more. it's always fascinating to me when you hear these car dealerships in arkansas or even south dakota saying i can't get an ad on the air from mid september all the way through until the election because all of the air time is purchased. there is a saturation point. and so many times you talk to voters at the polls who say they're voting just to make the ad stop or the robocalls stop. spending will continue to increase. the supreme court opens up sort of a bit of a flood and allowed for a lot of legal spending in a way that people are going to continue doing it. i mean a lot of people assume the republicans are outspending th

and on the flipside someone like john barrow from georgia, who the republicans have been targeting since he was first elected over a decade ago i -- ago. he is a white southern democrat. i think that he's amazing as a politician because you have a harvard educated lawyer and when you look at that it is a terrible southern accent but it starts getting deeper and deeper and he has been a survivor and for him to lose by considerable margins i think it's telling and i believe only white white males of the democratic left is good -- going to be david price of north carolina since x-xray -- nick rayhaul lost. those are some of the things that were surprising to me. >> you mentioned arkansas. pryor lose by 17 points, 18 points, lincoln lost by 21 points and income bird of the race completely differently. >> we were told the entire cycle mark prior is no blanche lincoln mark pryor is no blanche lincoln. it was drilled into our heads. >> that is a perfect segue to the next question. sue rothenberg wrote a column this morning about the results and what happened and i'm going to read a small portio

on the flipside, john barrow of georgia, who republicans have been targeting since he was first elected over a decade ago, a white southern democrat -- i think he is amazing as a politician. have a harvard educated lawyer, and when you look at his abs,-- his ads, his southern accent gets deeper and deeper. he has been a survivor. for him to lose by considerable margins is shocking. i think the only southern white democrat left is from north carolina. nick rahall and mark barron lost. arkansas.ion to see mark pryor lose by 18 points -- blanche lincoln lost by 21 points, and we covered her race completely differently than we covered mark pryor. >> we were told the entire cycle, mark pryor is no blanche lincoln. >> that is the perfect segue to the next question. stu rothenberg wrote a column this morning about the results and what happened. i am going to read a small portion of it about polling. you can read the whole column at rollcall.com. first, either democratic polling has significant problems, or pollsters and operatives intentionally misled pollsters and handicappers about what was

and elsewhere across the south georgia congressman john barrow, the last remaining white democrat fromures all across the south. two years ago obama did better in north carolina than kay hagan did this week. his 2012 numbers slightly outperformed michelle nunn in georgia, too, even better in west virginia senate candidate natalie tenet. challenger ed gillespie conceding just yesterday. this is something democrats are going it to have to grapple with. they had good candidates in the south. many ran great campaigns. some had famous family names. but all of them ended up doing just as badly, maybe even worse with white southern voters than president obama did. they will never get back to a majority in the house but how can they do it with everything they tried this year failed so miserably. joining me now to discuss this is former south carolina democratic party chairman. dick, thank you for joining us this morning. i want to start by showing this was a greg sergeant in "the washington post" yesterday, a liberal writer in "the washington post," the democratic party has a cultural problem.

we have a wonderful head of production called helen barrow, a gutsy lady, a seidler who ran the sideand schuster and once at the meeting said she would not increase from bucket for this or that matter and she famously followed into the men's room and when he was standing there unzipped, explained how she absolutely had to have this money and finally came up and said get out of here. it was unthinkable, she was the first woman to add pants suit to a publishing office and might have thought the world was coming to an end, the fact that she turned up in a pants suit, called board meeting is whether it should be allowed to, and all of this was present in this book world despite the fact, get the most powerful people resent as they still are now women, but that tradition of male chauvinism was on radar. and it was interesting i had no idea that it would suddenly make me famous and their expectation -- >> host: you read men are adept at forcing women to become stereotypes. >> guest: that is true of all but the greatest of motion picture stars, that their careers have suffered often by men

another house race that was of great interest was john barrow in georgia. the most conservative democrat who has managed to escape more near-death situations than every indiana jones movie combined, but didn't this time. and that will also tell you something about the broader nature of our politics, not a single white democrat from the south left standing in the house of representatives. and, of course, it reflects the broader trend over the last three contests, that the robust blue dog coalition that was there before the 2010 elections is down to not quite but close to a trace element. and on the republican side, you have lost a group of boehner loyalists. if you look at the replacements, they are much more over to the tea party side. and they are not starting with any sense of affection or loyalty towards boehner. he will have a larger caucus. he is working to make sure he can head off a challenge. he will be the speaker next time. it's a question of how many votes there are on the floor against him. but he will win comfortably. he is not going to have an

josh barrow joins us from the new york timesment i give you more than a minimum wage for all the timenbc for us today. this is not to sugar coat the fact that americans have an endorsement on a lot of their platform which is against the minimum wage. in arkansas, other states made the distinction. >> right. i think you can have an issue where voters are with one party. so we're clearly seeing a higher minimum wage is popular throughout the country. legislatures run by republicans we believe the around and got signatures on the ballot. yes, democrats have a position on their minimum wagement but i think there's this idea that democrats nationally should run on the minimum wage as a key ek father or motheric issuement i don't think that idea has been vindicated. >> what you're talking about, policy here is big. basil was talking about this earlier in the hour. what were you running on. >> i will fight for a minimum wage. that ensures that no one living 40 hours a week is stuck living in poverty. >> she's a federal o if i believe there. she is talking about a federal minimum wage. >> rig
