we've got candidates that have made themselves caricatures, running as howard beale, then trying to turn into a serious profess professor. it doesn't work that way. the people who get lost in the shuffle are the people in new york who need serious solutions to the problems the state is facing now. >> we'll keep an eye on those races. trust me, rich, we'll have some democratic outrages very soon. rich, gloria, cornell, john, thanks. a lot more to go, including a conversation with bob woodward. he's just written a new book about "obama's wars." and also his thoughts, obama/clinton 2012, really? that's in a minute. then we'll talk to eliot spitzer about the new program at 8:00 tonight. their take on the "i'm not a witch" ad in the delaware senate race. and bill maher is back with us. last night we talked about christine o'donnell and glenn beck. tonight, his take on the unhappy left wing. of the democratic party. because of one word, imagination and reality have merged. because of one word, a new generation-- a fifth generation-- of fighter aircraft has been born. because of one word, ameri

and it could be called the howard beal effect. we see this every recession or so. people are mad as hell, they don't want to take it anymore and they're focusing on the idea of elites in washington and right now that's got a d by its name. >> real quick, from '92 to '94 the overwhelming movement in the electorate that powered the republicans to their majority was among non-college whites. they moved from 47% republican in '92 to 61% in '94. and we could see something perhaps approaching by that magnitude in their shift this year. the one saving grace for democrats, as america has grown more diverse and more educated, those voters are shrinking as a share of the electorate. they're about half the electorate. the working-class whites in '94, they're now down to about 40%. might go up a couple points because of the diminished turnout among minorities. but it's not going to be as big. and the west virginians now are somewhat more of the exception than the rule in being a state that is dominated by those voters. >> but what you hear dana saying is that the voters are ju

indianapolis, still, thing goodness, this wonderful jewish man who is one of the survivors of the famous beal'sher's band of partisans. maybe you saw the movie "defiance" about their export -- about their exploits. there refused to submit and fought and save each other and survive and so forth. in talking to him and in the books about them, there is a phrase i had never heard before. i guess it is a yiddish term. the term is a small bush. it is an intellectual, formerly an elite person in society before the nazis came. but in the forest, in the fight for survival, these formerly leadership elites were next to useless. they did not have craft, they did not understand weapons, did not have to fight or do the things that are now necessary. herman and his kindred spirits were never malbushes, there are always about applying their inflecting gifts toward real, practical outcomes. to the human progress that could come from them. s. he said in the club of rome environment of the day, to be optimistic is simply to be realistic. we're not going to run out of this or run out of that. his buddy and my bud
