senator evan bayh of indiana!] we asked over 3,000 doctors to review 5-hour energy and what they said is amazing. over 73 percent who reviewed 5-hour energy said they would recommend a low calorie energy supplement to their healthy patients who use energy supplements. seventy-three percent. 5-hour energy has four calories and it's used over nine million times a week. is 5-hour energy right for you? ask yodoctor. we already asked 3,000.

united states. >> geraldo: continuing with kristine pelosi and jackie gingrich cushman and senator evan bayh and linda chavez the former secretary of labor nominee. senator, bayh, do you believe that the administration really didn't know what happened or were they trying to put a spin on this thing to make the president's policy vis-a-vis the muslim world seem more effective? what happened that they were so wrong and so obviously out of touch? >> in a case like this, geraldo, events move pretty quickly and your information is less than perfect and there is a lot of pressure on to make statements before you have all of the facts. i think that is probably what happened. the other statements got the a little ahead of the information. now, we have a clear understanding and they need to clarify the record. possible this this is a hybrid situation where it started off with demonstrators and al-qaeda or terrorist elements seized that to their advantage and carried out the attack. none of us really know all of the facts is yet. i think you can probably pin most of this on just the chaotic nature of

senator evan bayh of indiana will be joining us as the democratic national convention reaches its peakget right out to aasif mandvi live in mile high stadium, invesco field. aasif mandvi, thanks for joining us. wow, what a night, what a night. >> yeah. just minutes ago barack obama finished his -- his historic acceptance speech. wow, what a speech it was. >> yes. we were all watching it here. >> so you saw him talk about hope? >> yes, hope. and that part

it was yourself, joe biden and i believe evan bayh. >> ed mcmahon. >> jon: tell me about the vetting.the vetting process? >> people know a lot of things about me that i never thought i would reveal. they go into detail. your high school girlfriend's middle name, they give you a name and then they come back and say "she said she was never your girlfriend" so it's intense. >> jon: what would that have to do with being vice president? >> that was what i wondered. >> jon: it's this intense, weird process, and they check into everything. >> they really do. really do. >> jon: did senator obama gives each person a rose that goes on to the next round? how do they let you know that you have gone to the next round? >> it's very mysterious. it's probably something like at the vatican, you know, with smoke -- it was flattering to be mentioned. my mom likes it. she was happy that i was mentioned and all. but it was fun. i signed on early with barack as one of the national cochairs. national cochair since february 2007. >> jon: this may be the only place in the entire country where you could get a

continuing with former senator evan bayh and new york congressman grim on your left.he latinos a big deal this time around? >> absolutely. playing a pivotal role and i think you will see more of that. i think you will see both the number one growing voter group in the united states. >> geraldo: how can the republicans hope to score more than the woeful 30% or less they are polling right now with that hardcore language in our platform about immigration? >> i think that certainly is the big challenge. i mean myself for one has often sometimes disagreed with my party in many different ways and i do think to some extent we have to do better to attract the latino vote. and what bothers me the movie theater is it is naturally our vote. the hard working church going. >> geraldo: socially conservative. >> socially conservative that would naturally be he a republican vote. i think we just have to do better and we should and we are going to rely on some like this young texan here and. >> geraldo: mario diaz ballard. you could go on and on. great governors out there. >> geraldo:

evan bayh. the president hasn't really talked about that comment.ouse says it was taken out of context. he says he regrets the syntax but not the meaning. >> everybody from time to time makes a mistake and says something they don't mean in a wrong kind of way it's better to admit that and tell them what you really meant and move on. i think that's what the president did yesterday. martha: he says you didn't build it, the highways, all of these different industries that the government built helped you get there. and i think even in that fuller context there is plenty of small business folks in this country who were very offended by it. we heard from some people on the floor of the republican convention who said i voted for president obama last time around but that comment really bugged me, it hit people where they lived in some places. >> it did resonate with a lot of small business people and middle americans. that's why i think it was important that he came out yesterday and said look i just made a mistake here. what he was trying to say is that th

joining us now here on the set is former senator of indiana, evan bayh.d in the last month after 180,000 the month before. probably going to keep unemployment above 8% another month. >> it's a continuation of what we've seen. not enough to bring the rate down. no president has ever been reelected with unemployment this high. so it's going to continue to be a close race. >> steve: so less than 12 hours after president obama gave his best pitch for another four years, mitt romney is going to be able to hit him with this number, whatever it is. president-elect obama isn't going to be very good. >> the republican high school a good convention. mitt got one or two point bounce from that. my guess is the democrats got that back over the last few days. i think the thing to look at are the debates. most of the independent voters weren't appealed to by the rallying of the base. they want to see these two stand side by side, no spin, no filter, let's see what they've got. >> steve: what did you think of the president's performance last night? >> i thought it was go

except for bye, birch bye and evan bayh. what do you think of that race?> it gets to another point which we haven't discussed which is that in some of these key states republicans didn't get the candidate they wanted. indiana is one of them. obviously todd akin in missouri is another. olympia snowe retiring is another. republicans wanted a candidate and didn't get him or her. in each of those cases, you're seeing republicans pay a price for it. the betting money is that mourdock will prevail but it's much closer. there's going to be resources invested in the state that will draw away from other races. in maine angus king is suffering because he promised not to caucus with either party. a lot of democrats are worried he won't be a democrat. i think if you were to say, listen, i'll caucus with the democrats, he would get a lot of votes and that wouldn't be a race. >> you won't get any assignments if you don't caucus. you sit there and do nothing. >> he's saying i'm going to go up there and do powerless, vote for me. i don't see how that's a winning argument.

folks, we see a future where america leads not only the by power of our -- the example of our power, evan bayh the power of our example, where we bring our troops home from afghanistan, just as we proudly did from iraq. a future... a future where we fulfill the only truly sacred obligation we have as a nation, the only truly sacred obligation we have is to prepare those who we send to war and care for them when they come home from war. and tonight -- and tonight... tonight... i want to acknowledge acknowledge -- i want to acknowledge as we should every night, the incredible debt we owe to the families of those 6,473 fallen angels. those 49,746 wounded, thousands critically, thousands who will need our help for the rest of their lives. folks... we never -- we must never ever forget their sacrifice. and always keep them in our care and in our prayers. my fellow americans, we now -- we now -- we now find ourselves at the hinge of history and the direction we turn is not figuratively, is literally if your hands. it has been a truly great honor to serve you and to serve with barack who has always s
