keep an eye on birmingham. if romney has any chance to win he's going to need to really do well there. 20% in romney is narrowly beating santorum there. he's going to need to step that up. again, nothing yet from next door baldwin county. just from the east across the bay from mobile, so we're going to have to wait on that. >> we were talking about the obama campaign. jim mussina, the obama campaign manager showed president obama's numbers taking a bit of a dive. he said if the general election were held today, president obama would lose to roll any. many other polls put the president on top. but all point to a rice that will be tighter than you think. they want $3 or more on their bad poll numbers. so there you go. >> there you have it. $3 and a cloud of dust. harris is back in the newsroom. he's ready to roll. you're still scratching your arm. >> i missed it because of you guys. thanks a lot. 9:50 to -- so people in the washington area will put you guys on mute and listen to me on top. >> we were talking abou

so we're here at gingrich headquarters tonight in birmingham, alabama. there's a lot of buzz and excitement about what happened a little bit later on. newt gingrich has been talking about how mississippi and alabama are 4 a campaign. tonight big night as welcoming off of his strong finish on super -- and still trying to prove that he's conservative alternative to mitt romney. he came out and said there are consciously optimistic about the numbers so far. finally that means mitt romney, he was considered to be the underdog in southern states but that may not be the case because over the last week or so he's been at the top of the pack or near the top of the pack. you have three candidates on pins and needles waiting for the results to come down. although i have a feeling it could be a long night. >> thank you. >>> here at home an early morning apartment fire in oakland displaced about 20 people and destroyed several cars. investigators say the fire started inside a vehicle parked in a carport and apartment complex on adams street near lake marry. flames s

birmingham, alabama. >> caller: two short things. first, misconception. people keep telling us all these people are coming from canada for health care. i know that for a fact. i agree. the misconception is do they not know or are they trying to mislead the american people the canadian government has an agreement with hospitals close to canada in order to save them money on buying multimillion dollar pieces of equipment, they send their people to the united states for treatment. the canadian government is what is paying for that treatment. the other thing on this mandate, why is it we have all this uproar on this mandate when if you go back and look at the bush administration's plan there is a mandate in there. you only have 63 days after you turn 65 years old to buy a drug plan. if you do not, you start paying a penalty. when you buy. for every month you do not have a drug plan after the 63 days, you pay so much penalty when you buy one. also, that penalty is not a one-time deal. you will pay it for the rest of your life as part of your monthly premium. a

i will be campaigning in birmingham and mississippi and campaigning in biloxi and back in birmingham. we are not taking anything for granted. >> chris: we'll talk the math, mr. speaker. you won two of the 25 contest states that voted so far and the romney camp said you have to take 70 percent of the outstanding delegates to clinch the nomination. if you were to lose one or both you will stay in this all the way to the convention. doesn't it become impossible to get to 1144 if you don't win both states. >> guest: the mitt romney camp is trying to sell that i should get out of the race and romney is inevitable. romney is the weakest front runner since wood in 1920 and he lost on the 10th ballot. romney has a challenge. he wins a state, he wins ohio he gets 38 percent of the vote and places where no one competes because of money. guam, for example he does fine. but vioming 47 percent . loses kansas outright. most he will get in mississippi and alabama is a third and more likely to get 28 percent. yes, he is a front runner, but not a strong front runner. almost all conservatives are oppos

in the middle of the noisy crowd, birmingham police commissioner bull conner led the dixiecrats and out of the democratic party. >> a lot to ask you about, dixie crats, who were they? >> they were southerners who had begun to oppose truman because truman's earlier stand on civil rights especially that year and they were the southern segregationists, i believe there were something like 17 states were involved total, but mississippi and the carolinas and alabama were some of the -- you know, the front people. and they were -- they just did not want any talk of civil rights. and they wanted truman to defeat it and so they put up their own candidate. >> where did you get that -- i know you talked about all the video. where did you get that black and white video we just saw? >> it's mostly universal newsreels almost entirely, which is a great collection at national archive in college park. it's public domain, so it's wonderful resource. but there's also the shot of him on the podium and some of the shots of the crowd, the minnesota crowd, came from a man from south minneapolis who had 16 mil

dana bash is joining us from birmingham, alabama. dana, tell me where you are exactly, what you'll be looking for tonight. >> as you said, we're in birmingham, this is jefferson county, alabama, where we'll be all evening long. is a from all over the county, about 177 presentence. they'll bring is into this vault, and come with me, we're going to go inside. i'll tell you exactly what we'll be looking at later. first of all, when they come in, they'll go to this window, where they'll be dropping off they microchips. in the be mitt romney to see if he could get his vote counseled up, it could be -- as jim was just talking about, it's kind of a dead heat between him and newt gingrich. ultimately what we're going to see here is we'll be watching through this window. they're actually going to be reading, on these computers, reading the vote results as they come in. we'll be right here with them, with these election officials to try to get you the numbers, to try to get a sense of how well mitt romney or newt gingrich, because again, talke

chief political correspondent carl cameron begins our coverage from birmingham, alabama. >> reporter:time for newt gingrich. distant third and g.o.p. nomination delegates he said he must win alabama and mississippi. failing that, he will run to the august conference anyway. >> gingrich presidency would be very different. the reason i stay in the race is it's about more than right versus left. it's about being smart and understanding the modern world and science and technology. >> greg: but the race is about delegate math. the latest tally shows him ahead of santorum, gingrich and ron paul. alabama has 47 delegates at stake. mississippi, 37. hawaii, 17. american samoa, six. each have three additional super delegates that are unbound until convention. what little polling there has been suggests a three-way photofinish in alabama and mississippi. with the delegates divided up near equally. romney far outspent rivals in alabama and mississippi and jumped ahead to missouri, which wraps up its caucuses on saturday. >> if i become president of the united states, my job is to make sure you ge

let's not forget, everyone, he was going to have an event at the birmingham zoo, this morning.g a campaign of indulgence and i'm not sure he can keep doing that for weeks if not months. >> he's a zoo lover. santorum has to win illinois, i would say, because he came close in michigan, he came close in ohio, he's got one last chance at a big state like that, a big midwestern state, santorum absolutely has to win it. i agree with chuck there will be -- if romney wins one of these state there's will be a lot of this talk but don't forget in the new york times poll yesterday, santorum is running ahead of romney, among republican likely voters. so it will take one more race after this and i think illinois will be it but if santorum can't win michigan, can't win ohio, he's got to win illinois. >> howard you're good at this, do you think cardinal george will endorse santorum in chicago? >> i don't think the cardinals are in the business of endorsing. >> they are pretty close. >> the bishops and the organized conservative wing of the catholic church of the united states is and i saw thi

nbc's john yang has been talking to voters in helena, alabama, near birmingham.g, what are they telling you? >> reporter: good morning, chris. the polls have been open here for a couple hours now. a steady stream of voters coming in and out of here. no long lines but a steady stream of voters. and we did talk to some of them to find out how they voted. >> i voted for rick santorum. >> why? >> i felt like i liked his record, i like his pro-life stance. i like his fiscal conservativism. i don't suppose i was completely sure until this morning who i was going to vote for. >> i voted for romney. >> can you tell me why? >> i just felt like he's a little bit more in touch with everybody and a little more open to issues for everyone. and not so dead-set in his conservative ways. >> when it came down to education, that was a real deciding factor to switch to newt. >> reporter: newt gingrich has a lot at stake here today. he hasn't won since south carolina and georgia. his home state next door. he's putting a lot of emphasis here. he says he's going to go on to the conven

and she is in birmingham. what have you got? >> about 60 perce%, a little mon 60% of the vote in in jefferson county. and mitt romney here is still ahead, but not by much. you see here, he's ahead by about 1,000 votes. 13,801 votes. santorum, behind him at 12,825. and up here, you'll see that newt gingrich, 12,322. you want to look at the percentages, mitt romney, 33.43%. santorum, 31.06%. and up here again, newt gingrich, 29.85%. it's still extremely close between the three of these. you know, this is changing every single second because this is amazing technology. it's updated as they get the numbers. and the numbers are pretty much, i think, all coming into the building here. so the computer is updating them quickly here. but mitt romney here, at least, is doing well. he may not have the pad, as john mentioned, about miss mis, the pad in this important county that he needs to take the state, but he is still winning. >> you know, it's interesting, dana, stand by. these numbers show that romney has won about 1,000 votes, but he

two years before the civil rights act, before the water hose in birmingham -- >> did it help that johnsonville was an educated city in northern alabama, did that make a difference? >> what helped more than anything is that huntsville tied itself to the space industry and what he was already there come a lot of scientists had to send a doll alabama and the city wanted to disassociate themselves from the rest of the state and that helped them to negotiate this quietly. so from the beginning i have memories of my parents as civil rights activists and after the voting civil rights act passed then they turned to politics and a group looking stamps, the was the national democratic party to revive memories my father ran for governor against george wallace in 1970 and i have these memories of my summer being taken all around the state, those counties that were the center of the plantation economy during the antebellum era not surprising 100 years later we are all wear the black votes were and it felt like during that election i had been carried to every church in the black belt and i watched my father

birmingham in the middle. down at the coast, romney has a shot here because his countyies largely have not shown up yet. the big surprise in alabama is around birmingham. it shows that it's for santorum now. >> all of these red? >> it should probably be for romney. so maybe santorum is feetling good about itthis. >> 6% so it really is hard to know. these things are so, you know where things come in late. >> urban and suburban for rom necessarily ney. anybody else, the leftovers. >> you heard me asking the mayor about gaming this out. if santorum ends up winning both of these, what happens? >> he is going to be set up as the alternative to rockmney the conservative alternative. romney is having a lot of trouble getting to 50% of republican voters which means, in reverse more than half of the republicans voting right now want romney. one on one that's what santorum wants. >> santorum wants one on one and romney does not. so he will do whatever he can to keep again rich in the race. >> please stay in. >> gingrich
