chris matthews. welcome to the show. with us today, abc's sam donaldson, nbc's kelly o'donnell, "the new york times"' helene cooper and "new york" magazine's john hileman. it's kickoff time. the conventions will be the biggest time yet to muster troops and reach millions at home. restless tea partyers probably won't get as bad as 1964, when barry goldwater delegates made things impossible for nelson rockefeller, chanting while he spoke, "we want barry." >> it's danger to the party. [crowd chanting "we want barry"] >> well, four years later with the vietnam war the big story, riots outside the convention hall in chicago stole the spotlight from vice president hubert humphrey, who was saddled with lyndon johnson's war. he never recovered from those images in the chicago streets. sam, this is the old question of campaigns and conventions, especially conventions. what picture are you going to give to the country? here's the question for the democrats. ironically it's not too much noise and excitement, it's complacency, minorities, people who may not vote. how does he energize them? >> he's going to give the country bill clinto

cooperate? this is a mess. the only thing i liked from chris christie last night was he talked about meeting to work together.t is racial, they do not like this man. they say that he accomplished something when he was president. these people did not want this happen. host: independent, hurst, n.c.. caller: first i must commend c- span for your marvelous covers last night. i watched you all day, all evening. i did not watch any other channel. i am very glad that i did. i am glad you cover the conventions so well. but i will say that i also feel that the other speakers were also very good. it is a shame that the national networks did not cover this. you gave a very balanced coverage. i thought that mrs. romney did a good job. i thought that chris christie did a good job. people who are complaining that no one wants to work with obama, maybe if president obama was willing to work with the republicans and the independents -- he seems to feel that because he won, it is his way or no way. he is always blaming someone else. i will watch the other conventions. i will be very interested as they are coming to north car

chris christie's big speech and for ann romney's, but isaac is out there and you know, maybe during the convention, networks will have to put up a split screen. we might have to put up anderson cooperamming president obama as hard as he can. that's not the kind of image republicans are eager for, is it? >> well, carol, we're going to have to walk and chew gum at the same time. multitasking is part of the tryout to be president and i think it is the right thing to do to give this attention to the tropical storm. i'm from miami. i know how quickly it can change and republicans need to show the adequate sensitivity. people expect, american people expect from their president that he will be able to, or she, will be able to show empathy, but also respond quickly and appropriately. and we have to show that we're able to do that. and at the same time, the show must go on and we must have a convention and these important speeches and we're going to have hurricane christie coming in at the category 3 instead of a 5. >> we're hoping stay on tropical storm -- >> again -- i can assure you, hurricane christie is going to be on stage today. we just -- maybe the category will be less than it woul
