and the new masculinity, which session does mike huckabee belong in? >> we've been the land of czars, clunker cars, and hollywood stars. >> speaking of czars, the dnc strikes back at republican hypocrisy asking if why it's an evil idea, why did the gop support them during the bush years? hateful spin after speaker pelosi expressed concern about violent rhetoric. suddenly fox news decides your words do matter and could indeed incite people to violence. >> she got all choked up over something that could be very very serious. >> when you harken to terrible tragedies involving political assassinations -- >> giving people ideas. >> and it's a horrible thing to do. >>> and saturday night live uncovers the plot behind the wilson you lie tirade. >> all at once together. are going to yell "you lie." >> all that and more now on "countdown." >>> good evening from new york, i'm lawrence o'donnell in for keith keith olbermann. 45,000 people die each year because they don't have health insurance. put another way, that's one person every 12 minutes, five people every

the problem with huckabee is that he's not very appellatable to the wall street republicans. the guys that truly call the shots in the republican party and they did a fantastic job of taking him out when he seemed to be the front runner post iowa in 2008. and i think they still make him nervous because they see him as a fiscal liberal. this is a guy who supported college scholarships to children of undocumented immigrants which, of course, you know anything that helps anybody, especially those brown people is something that is completely unacceptable to the republican party these days. >> now, of course, there was a health care panel today. and maybe the first one that they've ever had in the value summit. and michelle bauchmann championed the idea of putting fewer restraints, fewer regulations on health insurance companies. she seems like, i don't know, maybe i don't get the values thing there, she seems to me to be straying farther away from the what would jesus do approach to health care, isn't she? >> when i was growing up going to sunday school, i learned that jesus woul

interesting thing about mike huckabee is this.n the straw poll at value voters summit in 2007. he also won iowa. doesn't get you far enough. he did win by double digits. >> those are the numbers. huckabee, romney, sarah palin at 12%. ron, i want to bring up a conversation we had on friday. we did go back and check on this. we did cover the story you and i were talking about on august 11th. we looked for the videotape. ron, the guy was a faker. come on, now, you know that. right wing story, there's a good lefty story. i'm taking the lefty story on that. >> if he was a faker then he wouldn't have had the st. louis police department go in and arrest six people for battery. >> it takes six to tango in a bar show, ron. you know that. >> ed, my whole point was you didn't see violence at republican town halls. you only saw people -- >> this wasn't violence. he was a faker. we did cover it. i told you i'd bring it up again. i appreciate your time, panel. >>> first, when you thought john edwards couldn't sink lower his former aide is writi

huckabee just locked that vote up, and it took him to victory in the iowa caucuses, beating romney.erwise, romney would have been the nominee. they're very important, but if you go too far, clearly, if you're identified as solely that, you start losing some of the economic conservatives and others who really aren't that strong on the social issues. >> you know, peter, i want to go -- go ahead. >> let me make this point about that, alex, too. if you look at the delegates at the last republican convention, it was the most far right group of delegates that has ever been assembled, and the concern, i think, on the part of a lot of republicans, is that they are even going further on this. and that's sort of scary to them, because you have got to win the middle. i mean, the reason that joe lieberman couldn't become vice president was because he was pro-choice. the reason that they didn't take the former governor of pennsylvania was because he was pro-choice. they had to go with the candidate that was extremely -- >> okay -- >> but alex? >> yeah? >> i've got to make a point here. peter's r
