what's happened here is that two former allies, jack warner, and chuck blazer, chuck blazer effectively to have been going on in the caribbean. and clearly that has upset a significant number of people in concacaf which is the governing federation for the national football organizations in that part of the world not just the caribbean but north and central america as well. >> back to fifa headquarters, what's going on now, do you think? you've got the english and the scottish f.a. but they're the only ones whistling in the wind? >> we'll find out. there's no doubt -- goodness sake, there will be a lot of wheeling and dealing going on and discussions, at the very least, because there is disquiet about where fifa is, whether or not it's a crisis, a full-blown crisis, there is a crisis of confidence, and that you've seen in the past 24 hours with the sponsors, the world cup sponsors coming out and expressing their disquiet about what's going on and the damage that's done not just to fifa but of course by association to their own brands. >> but isn't it going to be seen as mainly the europe

is this tit-for-tat between jack warner and chuck blazer? >> it has really descended into force here. -- farce here. chuck blazer turned in evidence against his boss, jack warner, evidence of bribery that is now causing an investigation. blazer has worked hand in hand with warner over the past 21 years. this was a huge break, a very important news development. right now, there is a future -- a huge divide between the island nations and the caribbean, which support warner, and the other nations, which support blazer. that is why you are seeing the organization at war within itself. >> some might say this points to evidence of quarreling in a fiefdom, that somebody has something to hide. >> of course. it is all an internal power play that starts at the top with seth bladder -- with -- with sepp blatter being the only candidate for fifa elections. as people have turned on each other, everyone is scurrying to save their political lives. it seems likely that sepp blatter will win again on wednesday. anyone allied with him, including chuck blazer,

he's with us from across town at the white house, chuck, good evening. >> reporter: good evening, brian. in primetime tomorrow night the president will detail and fulfill a pledge he made in december of 2009, that some troop withdrawals would begin in july of 2011. july starts next week. so here's what the president is going to lay out. there were three measures of success that he laid out in december of 2009. to deny al qaeda a safe haven. to reverse the taliban's momentum and stand up to afghanistan forces. the president will say progress has been made on all three fronts and go as far as to say the operational capability of al qaeda is now been defeated or destroyed. essentially victory over al qaeda in afghanistan and pakistan. on the other two fronts that's not necessarily mission accomplished just yet so the number of troops anywhere from 10 to 30,000, will be removed in the next 18 months but keep this in mind, brian, over 50,000 american troop will still be there in 2013 and maybe even well into 2014, so still a long way to go but a significant number of american military coming

"chuck, do your chores." and you've got music playing, just, you know, seeping into your bloodstream and ear stream. and my father liked jazz here and there. but i was mainly into sports. i was into the organization of sports, and a lot of black folks made strong inroads into sports, and that captivated my interests. and the whole hip-hop thing that hit me in the middle of the 1970s got me into the music, because it was the technical aspect of it. technology. two turntables, a mixer, a microphone. i was totally confused. i was like, "why do they need two turntables? in case the one over there breaks down?" [laughter] "this person is very prepared." but that struck me as being, you know, something to get involved with this thing called hip-hop and rap music. and then if you study rap music, you will understand that it's not a music. it's rap, a vocal application over music, and the musics have already been defined as soul, jazz, rhythm and blues, then rock and roll, and so on and so on. and that got me into do

so, chuck todd, there's a lot on the table. where are we at the end of this week on the republican side? >> well, first, i'm going to stick with the baseball theme, and that is, i think the focus is on the player to be named later at this point, because of the people running right now, mitt romney is not just a front-runner, i think he's a very solid front-runner, when you look at all of the things that matter to being a front-runner. right now, all of the candidates chasing him seem to be stepping on themselves. tim pawlenty had a particularly bad week. michele bachmann doesn't seem as if she can get the nomination. you can see how she can get very, very strong, and in the end, the mitt romney folks love the idea of it being michele bachma bachmann. but the idea of the player to be named later, specifically rick perry. i think when you look at how this week played out, as good of a week as mitt romney had as being a front-runner, you're seeing it in our own poll, you're seeing it in other polls. rick perry had a pretty good we

nbc chief white house correspondent chuck todd joins me now with more on that. chuck? >> reporter: good evening, lester. well, look, nobody here at the white house needs a poll to tell them how lethal of a political problem a sagging economy is for the president. and today the issue trumped world events during a joint press conference with german chancellor angela merkel. and the president tried to sound reassuring. >> i'm not concerned about a double-dip recession. i am concerned about the fact that the recovery that we're on is not producing jobs as quickly as i want it to happen. >> reporter: look, this issue of the economy is becoming the issue in the 2012 presidential race. tim pawlenty went to the president's home town of chicago to unveil his own economic plan, and he came armed with some barbs. >> how are you enjoying your recovery summer? now, that's what the president said we were having. but that was last year, the recovery summer. >> reporter: look, white house aides are being inundated with a ton of advice on how to message on this tough economy. the presi
