and claire mccaskill beat you.mccaskill squeaked by with one of the most unlikely victories in the '06 election. she unseated a republican incumbent senator. in part because of the incredible popularity of the minimum wage increase with which she shared the ballot in missouri that year. it was after that performance in the '06 elections that then president george w. bush finally signed into law a federal increase in the minimum wage. last one we've had. the opposition to raising the minimum wage is always the same argument. it has been since the beginning of time. it's going to kill jobs, right? it's going to reduce unemployment. it's going to reduce employment. it's going to raise unemployment. look back at 1938. president roosevelt signing the federal minimum wage into law for the first time. the summer of '38. wasn't even above the fold. but the objection was the same then as it is now. it's going to kill jobs. it's the same objection we hear today. >> i wish we could just pass a law saying everybody should make

democratic senators dianne feinstein and claire mccaskill compared him to joseph mccarthy who accusedtizens of being communist. but toning it down is not in his repertoire. he was at it again. just to give you flavor for the place, this is the poster for larue tactical where the senator chose to call president obama's gun control initiatives wrong. those are mild from what he said in the past. cruz argued that the gun show loophole does not exist. he's a loophole truther. >> there actually isn't the so-called gun show loophole. that does not exist. >> michael: reminder, this man has degrees from harvard and princeton. clearly republicans have not learned from the last election. when americans made it clear that they do not reward crazy. cruz is now headline the super bowl of the conservative right. craze rewards crazy. he was at ted cruz's speech today and he comes to us from austin. welcome to the war room. >> great to be here. >> michael: in his speech today did he change tack at all following the criticism he got for his behavior especially from his own party in the senate. >> one

claire mccaskill and other democrats, claire you saw on our show and other forums saying, look. he clearly is better at asking questions than answering questions. but still came strongly to his defense as did the other democrats on the committee. saying joe manchin and others saying he is clearly qualified and the president should have his man there. and to take one statement out of context from a speech he gave when he wasn't in office is not really taking the measure of the man. he's not going to have a good relationship with republicans on that committee. and he is weakened within the pentagon where you have that crisp military, be-prepared attitude. you know it better than anyone. you've written a book. you've been with the military far more than i have. and rachel, you know they all have things down very carefully. the way he answered questions buzz damaging to him. despite from so many people from colin powell and people who republicans revere who all said this man should be confirmed. >> i think we are at an important and fragile and sort of unsettled moment in terms of c

. >> as claire mccaskill told me yesterday, she said, look. he is more used to asking questions than answering questions. there were a lot of issues. and what didn't help, of course, is that his former good friend, john mccain, just eviscerated him, grilled him, didn't give him a chance. yes or no. give me an answer. were you correct or incorrect? i mean, there is a way to try to do that, but clearly he came with a very hostile attitude. and it was very painful to watch. >> yeah. awkward at times. >> i mean, john mccain, mika, didn't let him answer a question. i'm sorry, out of that exchange, it was not chuck hagel who looked bad. >> ted cruz looked even worse. >> yeah. >> oh, my god. >> we're going to show all those coming up. >> he wasn't prepared, mika, in a lot of ways that were concerning. i think, again, the democrats, republicans, independents alike, if the republicans party thinks badgering an ill-prepared witness that way is going to help them with middle america, they don't know middle america. they could have just let him talk aroun

let's listen to what missouri democrat claire mccaskill said about this morning. >> why is it that we can't come to the table and agree what cuts need to happen? that's what we should be doing. we shouldn't be passing the blame to the executive branch or saying this is obama's sequester. the republicans supported this. i supported it. we need to come together and make the right cut. >> reporter: so there you heard senator mccaskill asking why can't the two sides come together. probably what the american people are asking as well, fred. >> right, and since both, i guess the white house and congress came one this, who stand stands i guess lose the most, be hurt the most if a deal isn't reached in time? >> reporter: a good question. both gamble if the cut ghouls into effect. both sides are trying to show the other party should bear the responsibility for all these bad things that are going to happen. and if you believe the recent poll by the pew and "usa today," they make it look as though the white house may be winning this argument. asked who they would blame if the cut ghouls into aff

claire mccaskill apparently has two republican dates.she has a three-way date this evening for her seating arrangements. but the state of the union is considered to be one of those high-minded moments, right, where you don't necessarily engage in partisan warfare. you ask people to transcend it. >> it's a great moment. i think we learned from bill clinton the irony of ironies that people want detail. as much as we like punchy writing and the bottom line lining it. the people want to know. perhaps they're gay. perhaps they're having a situation with abortion rights. perhaps they're involved with an economic problem or a labor problem. they want to hear the answer. and they want the president to get to it, what we call a laundry list. they're on the list, these people. and so as much as we find it process sak prosaic, they find it useful. >> referencing john kerry ahead of time. is there anything that you can tell from what the president has done thus far in his inaugural, in his cabinet selections, in the way he has behaved toward congres
