re-election with senator barry goldwater at the top of the republican ticket so they recruited peterson to run against billart knowing she would do what she could to keep the party unified that year. despite her -- peterson ran a credible campaign however the press coverage of her campaign was also relegated to the women's -- and laden with images that would make us cringe today. for instance, a "detroit free press" editorial that was headlined millinery in state to raise said peterson was quote a straight from the shoulder political pro-who will be as hard to deal with as a wife who wants a new dress. [laughter] another reporter wrote quote, the rustle of political petticoats will set the scene and another story said that peterson had an endorsement from a former president eisenhower quote tucked firmly in her handbag. peterson recalled at the time such comments didn't bother her much because there wasn't much he could do about them, but later in life as her feminism or church or recognize the denigrating stereotypes in which they were based. i believe one reason might peterson is not better known articul

oral histories in your james blanchard collection including, of course, the interview that bill did wellly peterson back in 1995. these are, indeed, a gift not only to historians, but to future generationses of begannered. it's gratifying for me to be speaking here tonight, but it's also a little kit bawnting. it's daunting because i'm talking about a woman who was, by all accounts i reviewed, a very good public speaker. joyce brickly, her close friend and political protege, described elly peterson's speeches this way: she dealt in reality, but had a way of making an audience laugh along the way. but in the end she really came back on point and slammed an audience. she wasn't the delicate type. i think this made her likeness followed by powerful instructions all the more powerful. everyone who knew peterson called her elly, that is if they didn't call her mother. the headline writers at michigan newspapers in the mid 1960s said elly did this and elly did that, and their readers knew exactly who they were talking about. while i'm sure that many of you knew her as elly -- and i don't think for a minu

peterson, and joe watkins. tonight the senate voted to kill the jobs bill that economists say could save us from another recession. bernie sanders joins us with reaction. and the 99% movement is growing and republicans are beginning to change their tune. >> i for one am increasingly concerned about the growing mobs. >> ring of fire radio host mike papantonio is here with us. great to have you with us tonight, folks. thanks for watching. i don't think anybody got any smarter watching this crowd. moments ago eight republican hopefuls just wrapped up a debate at dartmouth college. it was boring. but i have to say it was the most detailed republican debate so far. the economy, jobs, and bailouts were the highlights. tonight mitt romney who clearly leads the field in recent polling made several statements this evening that just don't coordinate with past comments. >> would you or would you not be open to another wall street bailout? >> well, no one likes the idea of a wall street bailout. i certainly don't. >> you said that in 2008 that it prevented the collapse of the financial. >> there's no question that the risks

peterson ties it up. minnesota would have a field goal. minnesota did have a chance to tight. kick sails wide to the left. and vikings win 24-21. >> redskins/billsth of the border to toronto for their game. the skins well, they never really arrived. this one all buffalo on on the scoreboard. wins, 23-0. >> ugly, ugly, ugly. steelers/patriots, the marquee match up of the day. steelers may have figured out how to stop the patriots' offense by keeping their own on the feed. when ben roethlisberger wasn't moving the steelers down the field, pittsburgh's defense was smothering. steelers win, one of the best of the day. 25-14. pitt pulls it out. >> watch out now. cowboys visiting resurgent philadelphia eagles. close game until right after the coin toss. michael vick, two touchdown passes. lesean mccoy, watch out now, 185 yards. he had two scores of the his own. this one was a joke. embarrassment for dallas. philadelphia 34, dallas, 7. it wasn't even that close. >> that's for sure. >> really important part. what do results mean for our little in staff "world news now" picks competition. our old friend, tanya rivero and i are still, locked at the top of

peterson, big weekend last weekend. minnesota vikings trying to win two in a row. temperatures will be cool. weather will be a factor out there for jay cutler. back to you, lester. >> bills week will mark two weeks since she disappeared from her family's home. in an effort to find her, a $100,000 reward is being offered. john yang reports. >> reporter: friday night, a candlelight vigil outside the house where little lisa irwin vanished from her crib nearly two weeks ago. hours earlier, an attempt to shed light on her disappearance. a big reward for lisa's safe return. >> they bring that kid right here, they get $100,000. >> new york based investigator bill stanton said the money is from an anonymous wealthy ben factor close to lisa's family who he says is also paying him. >> this person did not want any attention. the idea is not to focus on that. the idea is to focus on lisa, on bringing her home. >> reporter: that's the goal of releasing home videos of baby lisa. coo'ing at her mother and making baby talk, all pictures taken between january and march of this year. it's day 12 in the search for baby lisa. on friday, investigators reinterviewed neighbors and searched th

brown: this bill gets sets in motion a series of steps to place pressure on the chinese nation to stop rigging the exchange rate. c. fred bergsten of the petersonnstitute tied said some corporations will fret these actions will needlessly antagonize the chinese and threat ean trade war. i believe these fears are overblown. the real threat to the trade system is the protectionist policies of other countries and the vast trade imbalances that result including the undervalued currency. even mitt romney said taking action to prere-move protectionist distortions wouldn't influential a trade war but failing to act would mean the u.s. has accepted trade surrender. we can vote yes on s. 1619 today. it will mean we'll stand up to the heinz, more importantly a victory for american workers and smeally small manufacturers. -- especially small manufacturers. mr. president, i yield the floor. the presiding officer: the senator from illinois is recognized. mr. kirk: mr. president, i want to talk briefly about the breaking news today that the justice department and our attorney general, eric holder, announced that a plan was conceived, sponsored, and directed

bill, it's china which has been playing this protectionist game. mr. berkston, who is the director of the institute for international economics, the peterson institute, hardly a flaming liberal, free freight group, generally a conservative freight organization, he says china's policies, the most protectionist of any major country in the world since world war ii. and we're starting a trade war? it just doesn't make sense. that kind of language doesn't -- let's debate the real issues. let's not call names, let's not say so and so is starting a trade war, so and so is doing class warfare. we want more exports, wouldn't more trade. but currency undervaluations makes our exports more expensive in china, puts our manufacturers at a competitive disadvantage. mr. president, i -- i just think this legislation makes so much sense. that's why it got 79 votes, why it has such a high number of bipartisan cosponsors. that's why people in this country understand that passing this legislation just to equal -- just to level the playing field, to give our manufacturers an opportunity, why all that makes so much sense. mr. president, i yield the floor. i suggest the absence o
