chris: jim cramer, you tend to agree. here's a piece of a cramer rant about the president and business. >> disdain is off the charts. he's hated like jimmy carter was hated and i think we got to tell our viewers that and when the mics are off, these guys are saying obama is destroying the country. i always say, the democrats and the republicans are destroying the country. chris: they don't like obama on wall street. the fed is projecting under 3%, hardly any growth next year. what will that do to their attitude towards barack. >> the growth has plateaued already and not going do anything. ben bernanke this week was negative. he said whatever we were was going to happen probably won't happen. this will be difficult for the democrats because i think we'll get continued slow to no growth and hiring. it's not going to work, chris. it's not going to work. chris: inate nate silva says barack has to see real growth in the next 10 months or he's out pretty much no matter who he runs against. >> i think that's true because nate's a

one of the most amusing moments was when jim cramer aksed herman cain to talk about the economy withoutencing 9-9-9 and he could not really doing. this debate is about talking points. i'm not sure voters what the standard talking points. they will want to see someone be able to deliver for crisis of historic proportions. >> the other candidates stayed away from discussing the controversy surrounding herman cain. >> herman cain was asked about it and mitt romney graciously sidestepped the question, but this was not really the forum for that. >> ., thanks so much for your insight. >>> we want to check news around the region. virginia republicans say that they will not share power with democrats in the state senate. republicans hold a small lead in a close senate race in central virginia. but thif there's a split the lieutenant governor would cast the tie-breaker. >>> bwi marshall airport will undergo a major expansion. the expansion plans include more security checkpoints restrooms and more areas for passengers to purchase food and wait for flights. the project will cost $100 million. >>>

one hundred one they don't get enough and i think that's a good display of that i mean any time jim cramer from c m d c sounds more rational and levelheaded about these issues but any issue then somebody who wants to be president of the united states you should be scratching your head because you know that that that series of questions and answers about italy was more telling about this field in this debate than they we've probably gotten out of last several debates and yet sam isn't. sort of got what we asked for i mean in the setup of the debate they said you have sixty seconds so you know here we are complaining about lack of substance sixty seconds yeah well i mean i don't know how to solve it we are not an expert in crisis but i would expect they would know a little bit more than i would him for herman cain to say the way to fix this is a dollar is a dollar just like an hour is an hour and mitt romney said it only can handle their own problems the u.s. and. to say let's just liquidate it all it's insane i mean i think let's just liquidate it all is what andrew mellon told her hoover i

we get worried out of washington, not out of what the companies are doing. >> jim cramer, thanks very much. catch "mad money" weeknights on cnbc. >>> now to the child abuse sex scandal. a young man who was once very close to former coach jerry sandusky is speaking out. we'll hear from him in a moment. first nbc's peter alexander is on the penn state college campus with the latest in the developments in the case. good morning. >> reporter: there is another investigation under way in penn state university, this one specifically looking into how the university itself responded to the allegations of child sexual abuse by the football team's former defensive coordinator jerry sandusky. the allegations date back to the mid '90s, leading to the firing of the school's president and of course the head coach, joe pater paterno. at the helm of the investigation, a veteran lawman, louie freeh. the university is filled with serious new questions about its board of trustees. on monday the trustees tapped freeh to head its investigation. the investigation will go back as far as 1975. >> if our inves

that won't be an acceptable answer to a guy like jim cramer or those folks. so you'll see them have to play in a sandbox that they haven't done before at debate. that i think would be as much of a test. never mind if you're herman cain where you know you will have to deal with the other question in the room. and at the same time, answer some questions you haven't had to answer before. >> absolutely. chuck todd, thanks so much. we'll be watching all of your analysis tomorrow on the daily rundown. now let's get more with our political panel here with me in new york. political an list karen finney and politico chief investigative reporter ken vogel joins me from washington. karen, mr. cain has fired at almost everyone. the democratic party, rick perry, he's blamed the accusers, accusing them of fabrication. what was your reaction when his campaign chief mark block made up a story about her son? >> number one he know that mr. block is completely not ready for prime time mr. smoky, right? we've shown that that for some time. the whole blaming the victim. we're the

we're going to ask cnbc "mad mon money" host jim cramer joins me. >>> and joe paterno stepping down atse scandal involving one of his assistant coaches and children. this is developing minute-by-minute. >>> i'm thomas roberts, we have a jam-packed hour for you ahead. and we do wa

going to be hosted by cnbc, and joining me now is someone who is going to be there this evening, jim cramer, host of "mad money" live for us in michigan. how do you think the moderators are going to be able to keep the conversation on track especially when the tonight's focus is supposed to be about your money, your vote. are we going to be able to talk about taxes, economy, the high unemployment rate? or is it going to be about herman cain? >> no, what's going to make it so easy for us is the fact that the stock market is down so, so badly and people are hurting even today. we've got a lot of people looking for jobs in the country, not making as much money as they used to. and we've got a stock market, your 401(k) being crushed. so we might, sure have to deal with the fact that one of the candidates is in hot water for an issue that has nothing to do with the core of the debate. but the stock market itself and the losses that are generating and the problems in europe are so in our faces that these things have to be addressed by every candidate, even the ones in hot water. >> let's talk abo

jim cramer was asking the question, obviously felt differently than the candidates. when you just look at it, europe just matters too much to the united states and that's a big part of the problem. we can't just not help europe. 20% of our exports go to europe and are federal reserve is already assisting europe to make sure their banks function. our banks have unlg huge exposure to europe. it would be nice if it didn't matter, but it does matter to the united states and we will help them and are helping them and hoping it doesn't get to a point where anything further is required. >> ezra klein wrote a strong piece today in which italy may be too big to fail, but in too much trouble to succeed. what's going to happen? this is the seventh largest economy in the world. >> it is. it's a huge economy and too big to bail out, but today, italy, there was a little bit of calm in italy. there was a little bit of pullback from the precipice. 42 days of paid vacation. more than eight weeks. the most this europe. italy's unemployment, just over 8%. when you look at a lot of metr

jim cramer. i would like to ask francois if you anticipate the new sanctions from britain and france will be adopted throughout? >> in the european union. i thought that can't be quite right. but after close >> it is a factor select media had an interesting angle there. let's go back to the panel. francois, there's a number of questions about the choreography that you laid out and the strategy rather than just tactics. there's a question about broader adoption throughout the e.u., and then i think what might be a difficult question to john is technically with the u.s. government but if you can take a question about how the policy from the other advantage point. francois, we will again begin with you. >> the question is good. the strategy initially was the sanction. the sanction had been the strategy from 2003 to 2005. since then iran was rapidly refusing, adamantly refusing. i remember in the negotiation we were very uneasy and we wanted to put in [inaudible] the conclusion was june, 2005. so we
