before you have john haley, our director of transit authority, to present the award. chairman nolan: good afternoon. >> thank you. i'd just like to point out to the board that we regularly report to you when you review on a regular basis and evaluate our safety performance. and obviously the key to that is the performance of the online and front line troops. in this particular case you have an individual in our rail -- and our rail operators are challenged to be alert in two different ways. one set of rules and auto train control in the subway and yet another set of challenges while they operate on the service. both require constant vigilance and alertness. in this particular case through the actions of mr. rivera, who by the way may have been named after a philosopher and mathematician but his decisive action in this particular case belies that namesake. essay allowed us to call him archy. his act in this -- call him archie. his act in this particular case causing -- not allowing injury to this particular patron really reflects the best of the performance of our agen

what's going to matter is ed gillespie, haley barbour who are raising the resources we need. there are seven incumbent democrats, including harry reid, who are in the fight for their lives. there are four or five democratic seats that any handicapper will give us. in the house, charlie cook, real clear politics, "national" journal would put it at 202 with 31 competitive seats left. 30 of those are democrat seats, so democrats are in big, big trouble, and this should be a great election. >> schieffer: well, let me get to governor rendell to talk about that. because i've got to say, governor, these unemployment figures-- we have now had 15 months of unemployment above 9%, and that's something of a record in modern times, as far as i know. i don't think we ever had a period of that long, 9%-plus unemployment, since they started to keep track of this back in about 1948, or at least under the current things. how are democrats going to get around that? because, after all, when people are unemployed, they generally blame it on the people in office. and it's a midterm, when democrats
