we love cory booker. we love cory booker in new york city. if cory booker thought he could beat chris christie for governor, he would have run against him. >> before we go, really quick, sasha, what is also of note and should notten be marginalized in this competition is the amount of money. as of thursday outside spinneding for candidates in the jersey race topped $35 million, twice since 2009, highest by any state except california. we're just going to see more and more money thrown at the state level races, because as we said before, this is where the action is. >> the money is spent down ballot big legislative districts in new jersey. democrats are targeting voters called christie-crats. they are trying to split the ticket and legislature serve as a check on them in the next four years. >> it will be an interesting wednesday morning. thank you sasha issenberg, the victory lab, buy it immediately. >> legalizing pot, not your parents ballot initiatives. the progressive shift down ballot just ahead. an important message for an important mess

i think cory booker's success evidences that.re have been other occasions when persons have tried it and harold ford tried it in tennessee. he didn't quite make it. and there will be others who will follow that lead, and they will be doing something other than insider politics. the political parties, however, must embrace the concept in order for that person to win. >> and congressman butterfield, maybe you can elaborate on that point. the political parties must embrace the concept. how far along do you think the democratic party is -- how far along do you think the republican parties are in embracing that concept? >> well, certainly, democratic party is the party of choice for african-americans. african-americans are not blindly loyal to the democratic party. we support the democratic party because the democratic party has a progressive agenda. but talking about the 1965 voting rights act, that law was enacted, first of all, because of the literacy test. and once we got rid of the literacy test, and african-americans began to re

of dollars that cory could win his own little race so no democrats can turn out. are you going to join the cult of chris christi? >> chris christie's going to win unanimously. but there's a couple other things too. what a lot of people are going to try to write tomorrow was that it was a moderate one. and the republicans are going to move to the center. i don't think that's what happened. a reformer won in new jersey. someone who was going to bring fiscal sanity back. the ultimate paradox, though, as people start talking about 2016 is what sometimes makes you a national candidate doesn't necessarily make you somebody who can win in places like south carolina or iowa or -- >> we'll get to that. i want to press you on this stuff. i think there's a big myth about chris christi. this guy has the worst bond rating of almost any state. jobs are down. probably taxes are up. he's got this big personality. there's not much behind it. he's never really been in a heavyweight fight. do you think he's going to be able to trick republicans into supporting him and collapse in th

and he spent another $25 million to make sure that cory booker wasn't even in the state when he did his re-election. that's really great for padding your margin of victory and making the really desperate republican establishment feel like you might be the guy to save them from the tea party. so up to now he's done everything right in terms of getting establishment support. the problem is the base of the republican party is really sick of the establishment of their own party, and they really don't like the guy who seems to be teacher's pet, and right now chris christie is teacher's pet and media's pet. >> he is. david, we know rand paul called christie the "m" word, a moderate, but salon posted a piece on its website, dear everyone, chris christie is conservative. he vetoed a minimum wage hike. he vetoed legislation designed to eliminate the gender wage gap. he killed a new jersey version of the dream act and cut funding for women's health services, including eliminating funding for planned parenthood. david, this isn't christie the moderate as opposed to cuccinelli the extremist. this i

looked if cory booker had decided to run against chris christie rather than barbara buono. she's a nonentity in that state. >> i'll belt you shaquille o'neal would not have cut an ad for chris christie if cory booker -- >> i think that's exactly right. >> let's switch to virginia quickly. a letter mailed out yesterday from hillary clinton writing to people in virginia base he canally saying the state elected barack obama to a second term so our economic recovery could keep moving forward and americans would continue to lead the world. you have a chance to keep virginia moving forward by getting out and voting for terry. where there was not the big star power supporting barbara buono in new jersey, all of the stops had come out for terry mcauliffe in the democratic party. >> absolutely. everyone was there. even the first lady cut an ad for terry mcauliffe. they are very much looking at the african-american vote there. that's a state that's about 14, 15% african-americans so they are going to try to pull out that obama coalition. again, i think you have a situation here with

i am cory with san francisco and we're doing stay safe and we're going to talk about what shelter in place or safe enough to stay in your home means. we're here at the urban center on mission street in san francisco and joined by carla, the deputy director of spur and one of the persons who pushed this shelter in place and safe enough to stay concept and we want to talk about what it means and why it's important to san francisco. >> as you know the bay area as 63% chance of having a major earthquake and it's serious and going to impact a lot of people and particularly people in san francisco because we live on a major fault so what does this mean for us? part of what it means is that potentially 25% of san francisco's building stock will be uninhibit tabl and people can't stay in their homes after an earthquake. they may have to go to shelters or leave entirely and we don't want that to happen. >> we want a building stock to encourage them to stay in the homes and encourage them to stay and not relocate to other locations and shelters. >> that's right so that means the housing needs

he obviously did campaign with cory booker.ory booker, who was running in the special election for senate, but you're absolutely right that president obama and other democrats have not spent any time with barbara buono. the party made the decision months ago that this was a race not winnable for them, so they didn't think it was worth the investment. >> just sort of gave up on that whole race in new jersey. a clear ride for chris christie. thanks very much for that. we're going to stay in close touch throughout the day and into the evening. >>> other news, a stunning admission from the mayor of toronto today. >> do you smoke crack-cocaine? >> yes, i have smoked crack-cocaine, but no -- have i tried it, probably in one of my drunken stupors about a year ago. i answered your question, you ask properly, i'll answer. >> wow. pretty blunt answer indeed from the mayor of toronto. he add milted to that group of reporters that he has in fact smoked crack-cocaine. he says in a drunken stupor, if you will. over the weekend, the mayor off

. >> i think you can blame cory booker for that. this was the race he was supposed to run. he panicked. i think he was afraid that he might not beat christie, and he went for the low-hanging fruit in the form of the senate seat. you know, forcing lautenberg into retirement and when lautenberg died, it was his for the taking. i think after that, people had real doubts. democrats in new jersey had real doubts about whether booker, who would have been their strongest possible candidate, could have beat christie. without him, they didn't even feel like running. >> in a very politically shrewd move, christie made sure he was not on the same ballot as cory booker, even if he was running for a different seat. last question in terms of money. i mean, terry mcauliffe, $32.8 million spent on that race. ken cuccinelli spent $19.1 million. a lot of money. chris christie in the new jersey election, there was twice the amount of money spent. a lot of it was on down ballot races. i think that's evidence that the state level, the municipal level, this is where all the action is going to be

. >> john it seems the democrats are also taking a very close look at chris christie since cory bookeran for senate as opposed to running against chris christie for governor. >> i mean, how ironic. the problem with barbara's campaign is he has had no traction. she has been relying on the net, while governor chris christietive has raised five times the amount of money here. so she has had no traction whatsoever, and i think the whole issue, really, going forward is that, you know, governor christie's on the up at the moment and will come here to make a speech this evening, and at the moment it's looking like it is going to be a victory speech, dell. >> john thank you very much. >>> and the virginia governor's race is also being very closely rapped. ken cuccinelli is getting strong support from the tea party, but he has struggled to attract main stream republicans. he is now 6 percentage points terry mcauliffee. he is scoring points because he is promising to fix the health care bill. and voters in some of america's biggest cities are also choosing knew leaders today. boston will get its
