>> 9.5. >> eleanor. >> 8.5. i must say when i listen to him now apparently explaining these things it's very good, if you could just do those isolated bites and eliminate all the parts where he's looking down and frowning and looking pevish. >> also eliminating romney's extraordinary performance. and his reasoning, analytic skills. >> and his grasp of fax. >> and his grasp of facts. >> house of falsehood. >> i think it's similar, 9.5. obama who was boring, he was dull, he seemed to be unengaged. you couldn't do worse at a debate at this level of national politics. >> he didn't see it coming. >> he had to see it coming. >> you think he looked bored? >> he was completely unengaged. >> do you think he looked board? >> he was looking down. >> do you think obama is bored with the job of president? >> i think he doesn't like the trappings of politics. >> you know his intellectual? >> for all the talk about his rhetorical gifts, he's really not a performer, he's basically a professor who likes -- >> he needs a teleprom

eleanor? >> this is the $716 billion that the administration took out of medicare advantage, which was going to insurance company -- companies, and they diverted in part to close the donut hole for prescriptions, to provide free, preventative care for seniors. no seniors have lost any benefits. what romney is saying is he would take that money and put it back into the insurance companies. it is a phony argument, and they are trying to pretend the democrats are going to hurt. >> but the republicans. >> are going to hurt medicare when the history of the republican party is medicare in the first place. >> eleanor, the republicans used the $716 billion out of medicare, using medicare as a pig guy bank and giving it to obamacare because they have tested it, they have polled it, they have mentioned it every time they go on television. it is effective. >> not true. >> it is an effective argument and republicans don't have a great >> we didn't start medica i recall. >> taxation. >> the middle class wi

. >> eleanor. >> well, pat is right to the extent that the obama campaign, they are victims of their own success because they did caricture romney over the summer and all he had to do was show up and seem sort of reasonable and a lot of that caricture was wiped away. but to say that the president damaged his brand? who started the brawl the other night? the president was supposed to not fight back? i thought the president acquitted himself very well in the second debate. i think he stopped the bleeding that occurred after the first debate, and i certainly would agree that the first debate was a disaster for the president and he has acknowledged that and said that he was rested and ready for the second debate because of that nice long nap he had in the first debate, in the jokes at the al smith dinner. so i think we've got a very close race here. i think the president still maintains a small but apparently durable lead in the three states that will get him to 271, ohio, wisconsin and iowa. >> michelle, let me giving this tracking poll by gallup. in the two days following the debate, g

i decided to support eleanor on her own land.e was charged with trespassing all the landowner's struggling it will endangering our water supply, a food supply export pipeline only with the good for transcanada only. not our benefit. wizened to the transcanada statement. we follow all rules and regulations to get the pipeline approved and wonder why they legal activists prevent thousands of americans for providing for their families by helping to build the the gulf coast project and energy security and provides. a lot are already in existence. the ecological concerns we have not heard people dying or poisoning the land so why are you so steadfast in this position? >> first of all, that is not true. 12 spills within the last 12 months of their other pipelines. this is not ordinary crude but tarzan that is very corrosive toxic form of sludge that needs to be heated at 150 degrees to even move it. very dangerous not done to this extent. they put them under natural gas lines inside offer and through the wetland we're not professional

and his beloved eleanor.a certain blessing in knowing that as he left us as he did, peacefully, with family and friends around, i do not know about you, but i love the thought that george and eleanor, terry and steve, are all together now. throughout his life, as we all know, he had a love for mitchell. mitchell was his home. it is where he studied at dakota wesleyan. where he built his library when he returned home to continue his productive work in his last several years. and in many ways, it is all where it started. george and eleanor had four small children when he decided, in 1955, to resign as chairman of the history department at dakota wesleyan and build the democratic party. their friends agreed there could only be one explanation for this decision. he was out of his mind. [laughter] actually, and george insisted there was another explanation. he said he had a desire to work in public service and be part of the world of ideas and the field of action. the hallmark of his career was his drive to bridge

it is campaign rhetoric, not a realistic defense. >> eleanor, once again eleanor is right. >> thank you, tim. >> it is military industrial king pinnism. george allen is doing it in virginia and now romney is doing it. >> we need more ships to make more jobs. >> you sound like obama when you are saying we need more ships to make more jobs. >> we do need ships to defend american interests abroad. >> do we have enough as obama says we have? >> i think we ought to modernize the navy and stay at 300 ships but bring the troops out of places like the middle east, central asia, bring them home. >> the current batch of ships we have are so big and so powerful. >> we used to have 15 carriers, we have now got 11. >> so multi-usable we don't need all that. >> we take ten ships with every i are craft carrier what are you talking about? >> i think romney won the exchange on the navy. >> you do? >> yes, i do. >> on the ships? >> yes. >> what was the most defining moment in the third and final debate? pat buchanan? >> bayonets and horses i guess john. and that tells me that barack obama was fairly pett

. >> do uzi a comparison between clinton and fdr and eleanor? >> i'm sorry do i see any comparison between hillary and bill's marriage and eleanor and nixon? the reason i say no is that yes franklin and eleanor were very much political colleagues starting in 1922 when fdr contracted polio she was his political surrogates and represented him on numerous occasions the democratic party together. she headed the women's democratic national committee. she was very interested in many of the reforms of the new deal, but franklin had an affair with the private assistant and when she found out about that, she wanted a divorce, and that was the end of the marital relationship. the political relationship remained intact but they never became intimate people again. so the reason is that they had called out jury distinctive roles. a very important and eleanor was an extraordinary first lady but it's now something that was a product of the personal chemistry and other ongoing intimate relationship. >> if hillary is a bridge builder, what happened with the heal

eleanor is as fiery and as passionate now as she was thin but she was seven months pregnant. jihad and after out of here, and went to visit her in her office, or of us i remember, and she was going have the system worked at "newsweek" and she grabbed the magazine out of her hand and she opened it to a math test and she said, well, the fact of their men from the top category to the next of the last category, and the fact that there are only women in this last category means there's a pattern of discrimination. so i'm going to take this case. she was great. so all this is happening, the beginning of 1970 when "newsweek" decided that the women's movement was becoming very newsworthy and they would do a cover story on women's lib, it was then called. there was one problem. they didn't have a woman to write it. they knew they could have a man write it. i actually had been promoted as a junior writer six-month earlier to right fashion and other features by my boss was a great mentor, but i was not really experienced enough to write a cover. so for the first time in newsweek's histo

pipeline to ship oil off to other foreign nations just another day in third world america here is eleanor fairchild an actress daryl hannah standing in front of tractors that are clearing a pathway for the pipeline right through fairchild's three hundred acre ranch was tractors belong to the canadian company trans canada which recently want to prove to build a massive toxic tar sands oil pipeline right through the united states and right through mrs fairchild's property down to texas where oil billionaires can refine it and then ship it off to the rest of the world making big profits for themselves and for trans canada you see texas has a very lax eminent domain laws meaning trans canada had very little trouble confiscating a large swath of mrs fairchild's ranch and not a single local politician or lawyer has come to her aid mainly because you don't say no to big oil in texas and when mrs fairchild joined by activist daryl hannah an actress confronted those tractors she was promptly arrested for trespassing trespassing on her own property she's powerless watching her ranch full of life fo

eleanor holmes norton here with us in this last hour.ents in senate races as we get down to two weeks. overall, what are you now projecting the chances that democrats hold on to the senate. >> i think they have a 55 to 60% chance of holding the senate. here we are a little less than two weeks out, and we have nine really close races out there, which is a lot two weeks out, and they are fairly evenly divided between the parties, but it's -- >> bill: so it could go either way. >> it is definitely a race to the end, there's no question about that. >> bill: we have been talking a lot about richard mourdock who made the comments that no exception for abortion in the case of rape because rape was something that god intended. he wasn't endorsing rape. he just said it's part of god's plan, basically. we haven't seen any polling since that happened. how close is the race in indiana and how might this impact it? >> mourdock was really starting to pick up steam. mitt romney went out with the only senate endorsement ad outside of utah have i seen th

eleanor was an e extraordinary first lady. it was not something that was a product of the personal chemistry and their ongoing intimate relationship. yeah? >> if hillary is a bridge builder, what happened with the health care and what would she have done differently if she would done it today. >> i think she would have made the comprise. she would have gotten the bill passed. why did all that have happen? i think it happened because both in arkansas then in washington she fought and bill fought. she more than he. they were at the war with the washington establishment, they -- the washington -- both of them. bill club ton frequently lie to the press. they didn't like him at all. she didn't like the press at all. that's why she did the thing with the white house press corp. and travel gate and stuff. i think that her decision at that -- position at that point was she gave up anything she might give up everything. she held on to things and got the polarized. once again, a kind of attitude which was a vast right swing conspiracy a

>> first of all we were on eleanor's property. we're doing is objecting to a foreign company coming in and trampling american landowners property rights for their own private financial gain. this is an export line. it's not transporting crude. it's transporting tar sands which is a very different substance, very corrosive and toxic. >> transcanada would say the pipeline would be the safest that's ever built. crude is no dirtier than the oil we're getting from venezuela. "it is unfortunate miss hanna and other out of state activists have chosen to break the law, tie up scarce law enforcement resources to deal with these matters and put themselves in our workers at risk. transcanada like american energy companies operating in canada has the legal authority to build this pipeline under texas state law on the fair child property the commissioner's court granted us the easement and establish compensation which mrs. fairchild is disputing. are you disputing that? and what is your next step? >> i'm not disputing that they have the right
