dave neal alongside with my partner, joe. joe, we just saw the standings. tell me about the importance of this game for these two clubs and their two head coaches. >> mark: florida is playing well. this is a road opportunity game for them. darrin horn told his team today this is a must-win. if you want to play in the big dance in march, you have to beat the top teams at home. >> dave: let's see if they can pull it off. let's look at the florida lineup that doesn't feature a single senior in the starting five. chandler parson making his eighth consecutive start. in his previous starts the gators have gone 6-1. >> and the guy playing so well as their point guard, erving walker, leading the league in three-point shooting. he will be matched up with devan downey tonight. and devan downey will be in the starting five. once again for south carolina. the lineup features a couple of seniors, but south carolina is playing with sam muldrow. and let's go to the south carolina star watch. >> dave: no doubt who that is. i believe at 31 points a game in conference play,

i got to tell you, joe.many people hurting, and we have to leave politics at the door so we can resolve these problems. people don't have jobs. >> all right. >> but, eladies and gentlem elin if we put ideology at the door, the president does have responsibility to put some things forward that the republicans might like. tax breaks for small businesses, a payroll tax break for small businesses to get people back to work. it's -- i mean, it is a two-way street if you want bipartisanship. it can't be the president saying my way or the highway, right? >> i totally agree with you, joe. we democrats have to give some. republicans have to give some, and the president has got to be the glue that keeps all of us together. but the fact still remains that what's happening now, joe, is nothing is happening. and so -- so we've got to get past that, and i think -- i do believe, though, that the president, when he spoke in baltimore and over the last few weeks, he sort of maintained his strategy and went back to the things

i don't care whether joe thinks the poll is legit or not. scientific poll no reason to doubt it half the country trusts fox news far more than joe kleie pedal hateful crap and we don't speak the truth. doesn't make any sense. the folks don't believe that. they are watching. if you don't believe the poll, you look at the ratings. the ratings are overwhelming. fox news is by far and away the most powerful news organization of any of them now in the country. so you have got this gap. and i don't think that joe understands the gap at all. >> no. well, first of all, i think joe got a little bit nicer about fox news once he was on fox news aside from differently than when he isti it. >> bill: he did have the courage to come on, mae catherine. >> right. here is the similarity between a guy like klein and the white house, i think where klein says, hey, there is a poll out that says 77% of people believe the stimulus was wasted. he says they are a nation of dodos because they don't understand that some of this was tax cuts or tax credits for them. we

point two. [ laughter ] >> bill: this is a quick show, joe. if you are going to say something you have got to back it up. >> well, even when i agree with you. anyway, point two on health care, i think that there are things that can be done. they have to be done incrementally. you can set up a program so that individuals and small businesses can join these health care super stores where they can get their insurance more cheaply. maybe do a couple other things this year. health care is so big it has to be done incrementally. >> bill: hold it. >> point three. >> bill: we have a lot of time with you, joe. probably too much but we have got a lot of time with you, look. point two. fine and everybody knows it is important. >> seriously bad judgment -- >> bill: everybody knows health care is important. i think most of of my audience wants health care reform. if you are going to say to the republicans as president obama did last week, look, i want to be in partisanship with you, i want you to help us out. the two big republican things are tort reform.

barbara and joe? >> thanks very much, tom. many schools and businesses are closing early today so people with get home before this storm begins. the federal government is operating with a four-hour early dismissal in effect. d.c. public schools will close at noon today. taking a look at som other school systems in maryland, prince george's county schools will close three hours early. montgomery county, 2 1/2 hours early. and arundel county schools will close two hours area. carroll county, 2 hours, 45 minutes early. frederick county schools will close 3 1/2 hours early. washington county schools, 2 1/2 hours early. and most school in virginia are closed today because of this storm. all early dismissals and closings will be running at the bottom of your screen. >>> well, many people have been rushing to the grocery stores to get enough food and supplies to last them through the storm. chopper 4 flew over a giants store and a parking lot there in wheaton just a short time ago and the lot was packed, as you can see. that seems to

eun, joe? >> thanks very much. >>> the snow is falling pretty hard right now in northern virginia. >> crews are trying to keep the roads clear right now. they are fighting an uphill battle. news4's kimberly suiters is in vienna, virginia, to tell us what the roads look like out there. >> reporter: good morning, joe and eun. the winds have picked up a little bit out here in fairfax county, virginia, here in vienna, we're on main street. actually west maple as they call it. the plows have been up and down this street. if you take a look at video from just a moment ago, the plow brigade came through, about seven trucks up and down main street. this is the first time since we've been out here all morning, since about 3:30, that we've seen the plows with their blades down pushing the snow aside. something else we saw, we're about a block away from a starbucks. we decided to go see if we could grab a cup of coffee, they have a sign on front door that reads blame the weather man, not us. sorry, but we

joining us are the singer's father, joe jackson, and joe's attorney, brian oxman. what do you make of those charges, joe? >> i don't like those charges. he got off too easy in court today. you know, a lot of things that went on behind it that's not illustrated as to what's been going on. >> larry: things that you know about? >> well, i know that i'm looking for justice for my son. to me, he's just a fall guy. there's other people, i think, involved with this whole thing, but i think that he's interrogated -- he would come clean and tell everything he knows. >> larry: did you want him charged with homicide or murder? >> i was looking for justice, and justice to me would be a murder charge. >> larry: because your son, jermaine, said the charges were not enough, and i guess you agree with. >> yes. we all. larry, we all -- >> larry: go ahead, joe. >> we all agree that it was not enough. even the fans all over the world agree that it wasn't enough. believe me, it was not enough. >> larry: brian, involuntary manslaughter means that the doctor was not there to kill him, a

joe was mentioning, we're still the dog. we absolutely are. >> big dog. >> big dog. 12 percentage points increase in gdp in under a year. and so when uveng about the world, china doesn't buy more than the u.s. globally. the u.s. still buys mow more from europe and from most other countries than china, except for china and its immediate trading partners. and you see the trading partners of china are taking it on the chin right now. >> david, you're still buying tech? >> yes. i think cisco's guidance is absolutely right on. i think business is on the leading edge of a renewal cycle, reinvestment in technology that's going persist three to five years. i think we've come off a period of roughly ten years of underinvestment. so this is the leading edge. it will not be because of, you know, hiring people back. i think cisco has got it right. >> but we're going to get jobs growth. and i want to say something here. this is a stronger recovery than the last two recoveries in terms of gdp and in terms of job growth. >>. >> how do you

a, tom brady, b, terry bradshaw, c, joe montana. >> joe montana. you're on my team! we have to coordinate. >> she said scream it out. >> they cancel each other out. >> i think they do. >> they did, because makiggie g it wrong, but dave got it right. >> there is no winning by default. it's still zero/zero. >> this is strong, people. >> question three. i can't ask that because you you already said it was green bay that won the first super bowl. question four. what team has won the most super bowls? a, pittsburgh steelers, b, dallas cowboy, c, new england

and joe had to fight for the. and joe, being a conservative republican and a media world that is not, a lot of people were saying to me, do you really want to work -- you know, why don't you come over to nightly news are come unto the today show. do you really want to do that? and i will tell you that for the first time ever in 20 years, in this business, working with all these big egos, and going up with a lot of them, too, i will tell you this is the smartest guy in terms of television production. and i look people straight in the eye and i said yes, i do. i'm not going -- you'll need to go do another prepackaged, already thought out, we know what it's going to sound like beasley network again? or let's do something different and innovative and risky. that's what this was about. >> and we are, believe you me, we wake up at 3:30 a.m. and are exhausted by the time we get on the site, five minutes into it we go we are the luckiest people in news. can you believe? and you can take any morning, the people that come a

the second question was more for joe. actually joe you sold this to the network. they actually were busy with other things but you had to break down doors to make this happen. >> we did. they have other people. imus got in trouble when they tried that the people that didn't work because everybody was playing imus or-- so i went in and actually gave them a one page sort of thanks posters saying this is what the show is going to be and we are going to start a national dialogue, and people are going to be sending in things from politicians office, between blackberries and e-mails and on line, and they have course kept me off as much as they could and then i think everybody else tried out and it didn't work. so they put us on, and five minutes after we were on. five minutes into that first morning, tom brokow walked into phil griffin's office and phil was the president of msnbc. he said, scarborough, who knew? and he walked out, shrugged his shoulders and we have the job. >> do you know what is interesting? >> that have been literally and at the same time too, just to

but those days are those big down days as joe said. those are the big emotional days where guys say, i don't know what to do. just sell the market. clear up my positions. that's why you saw gold come in. that's why you saw everything that's a safety bet be sold today. guys didn't know what to do. >> going forward, i do not believe you don't trade. i think you have fundamental ideas, fundamental theses that you believe in and you just move from overweighting as i mistakeningly did yesterday in technology to an underweight position. i am ready, i will be rather aggressive when i see the moment that john will see also in the market of a bottom being in place. i'm coming right back in to get as long as much energy as my portfolio allows. i'm going to get long as much technology as i can. long as much jpmorgan and bank of america and google. i' not playing this right now from the short side. i'm not flipping, i'm not getting short. >> hold on, steve, you mentioned 1065 is a technical level. we're at 1063 right now. >> 1035 is what guys are

let joe go. >> you want to bring up the co 2 argument. the sun spots back here, back in 1750 and notice that they have been coming up and along with it the temperatures. basically it comes down to this. if you you look at the strength of correlation to warming, and this is a cure tetion is i of meetion joe daleo. you can see .43, the sun .57, the ocean .85. but since 1998, co 2 is going next to nothing because the earth's temperature is flat lining and co 2 is coming up. so what you have to believe, folks, is this that the sun, plus the ocean, plus the volcanic activity plus natural reversal has less effect than the yearly human contribution equal to the width of a hair on a one kilometer bridge on a trace gas needed for life. if you want to believe that you can go ahead and believe that. >> bill: all right, bill. >> actually, joe, mr. bastardi, the last 10 years are the warmest decade on record. >> sure measuring with satellite. >> especially warm year. 199 was especially warm year as was 2006. now, what's happened is you showed back in

is that the joe you knew? >> the joe stack that i knew was mostly apolitical. i never heard him take a political stance either side, left right. as far as i know he didn't have a party affiliation. my relationship with him was mostly based on us being band mates. and we socialized from time to time but like i wasn't one of his regular co-workers or somebody that i didn't see him everyday just band functions. i considered him a friend, but i didn't know that much about, you know his political life or anything like that >> greta: in searching your mind now going back over your relationship with him is there anything that stands out that boy that was weird about that guy or that was a sign? anything strange about him >> well, that's the thing about in that has been so shocking, no. i mean he was like a normal right down the middle kind of guy. i mean his personality he want -- he wasn't introverted, he wasn't extroverted engaged he knew about a lot of stuff, fun to work with, i played with him three years, we made a number of recordings together. so, yeah, this --

>> absolutely, joe.equity firms and in their cases more of a leverage. >> more of a backlog there, those guys. they may have to manage some of these companies at some point right? god forbid they have to look at the operations of what they bought without flipping it, right? >> there is also an opportunity to deleverage with ipo proceeds as opposed to just take some cash out for themselves. >> dividends. >> and finally, david, between facebook and twitter you think facebook would come to market first? >> i think that would make the most sense. they have an enormous user community and twitter while it has really come on strongly i just don't sense it's quite as large a company and really there's no reason to rush these companies out before they're absolutely ready. >> yeah. >> i think the backers will really want to make sure these launches are very successful. >> we'll see what happens. ipo of twitter or joe actually twittering. that would be -- >> i would bet on the ipo first. >> be a good bet. i am not

is joe biden on point with that? >> when richard reid was capturedby did not have the military commissions up and running, there wasn't the option at that point to put him into a military commission and i think what the administration is trying to do here is divert peoples' attention from what happened on christmas day, which is that we took the terrorist off the plane, he was questioned by local fbi officials with no information about al-qaeda in yemen, about what the national security agency knew, for 50 minutes, less than an hour, at which point he was mirandised and stopped talking for five weeks. i think you would be hard pressed to find any american, democratic or republican, except for joe biden, who thinks that was an appropriate way to handle a terrorist. it's not surprising they're trying to divert attention there. bill: when i was watching and listening to this debate at home sunday morning, i was thinking why is dick cheney taken back to this forum, why is your father doing this, and it's clear to me he's

so those things are very in place. >> a lot of attention on joe. and you know, joe looks like the kind of guy that is ready to do what he has to do to get better. and you know, if we pushed him out of his box, a little bit this year, i think this next year, it is time for him to do the things that we know he is capable of doing. >> there is a lot of room to grow into. joe is committed to that. and doing everything we can to put the best players around him. like you do with every position. we attack that like we're with the great enthusiasm, which will do. make him better. put the best players around him that we can. and make him the best player he can be in year three. that's our job. >> to high school. national signing day for football players. >> terps did not get this guy. adrian cox on, city college, that headed to the florida gators. he committed to penn state last spring and changed his mind. gators beat out georgia and notre dame. wide receiver by trade. cox played quarterback for the knights last season. throwing for eight touchdowns, and r

>> it's "morning joe."own" with the cruel savannah guthrie and the everves sent chuck todd. >>> he's talking. intelligence officials say the christmas day bomber is cooperating again with the fbi. >> we've got good intelligence and we're getting more. >> and is a terror attempt against the united states before july a certainty? intelligence officials tell congress yes. good morning, it's february 3rd, 2010. i'm savannah guthrie. >> and i'm chuck todd. let's get to the rundown. let's start this morning with new information from the administration on umar farouk abdulmutallab. a small group of us got a briefing last night at the white house, a briefing that came after national intelligence director dennis blair, in testimony before congress yesterday, revealed earlier in the day that abdulmutallab is actively cooperating with investigators and has been since last thursday, providing fresh intelligence on a number of investigations. a lot of them having to do with yemen. we've learned that abdulmutallab's fami

it's because they see the politicians like joe lieberman.in his state, they have passed in the house and the senate, universal health care, a representative body, both bodies passed universal health care and then this guy goes to washington and is the obstructionist, helping out the opposition. he -- he is doing in washington -- he is doing in washington whatle people of connecticut don't want him to do. so that's the disconnect. people feel it. and i really think, no offense to dog catch yoerks think dog catcher in boston, he couldn't get much publicity, could have run in that senate seat in massachusetts and won there is this feeling here across the cup, get out of here, you have been around -- we want something new and different. believe me a guy doing pin up, that is new that is different for sure. for more, let's bring in john nichols, washington correspondent of the nation, the author of a new book, "the death and life of american journalism." also with us is ab to the dashed acre associate editor and columnist to the hill. john nichol

. >> i'm joe krebs it's the 10th of february, 2010. another winter storm, another snow day for many in our region. all local schools are closed. the federal government is closed for the third street day. metro rail is underground service only beginning at 5:00 this morning. metro bus service is suspended for the day. >> let's get the latest ton forecast. meteorologist tom kierein is tracking t storm in the storm center. >> yes. we did have snow last evening and it changed over to a mix of sleet and freezing rain for a time. for the last two hours, it has all changed back to snow all across the region. it is now beginning to snow moderately to even heavily. where we see the green on radar in montgomery county from gaithersburg, germantown, southern loudoun county, ashburn near dulles airport, mclane and western fairfax county getting a band of very heavy snow. getting moderate snow right here in washington. some moderate snow in southern maryland as well. the wider view of the radar is showing the storm situation is getting snowier as t

joe carter has more. it's a big one, joe. hi. >> hello to you. what a great way to close out the olympics. team usa, unbeaten throughout the games against team canada, the heavy favorite, a squad loaded with nhl stars. team usa beat team canada last week, but this time a lot more is at stake. >> we're here for the gold. and, you know, we've been getting better every game, which is great to see. >> we got nothing to lose. we're here, and we want to, obviously, want to play hard and do well. the pressure's on everyone else. >>> the winter games opened with heavy hearts after a georgian luger died during a practice run. tonight the games close with concern for an entire country after the chile earthquake. the only athlete representing her country of chile in tonight's closing ceremonies after learning her friends and family are all safe. >>> american skier bode miller was going for olympic history saturday but came up short after missing a gate during his final slalom run just like lindsey vonn. it was a disappointing finish for miller, but he still

hi, joe. >> team usa and team canada will play on sunday. it's the rematch everyone, everyone wants to see. team usa advanced to that gold medal game after beating finland on friday afternoon. going into the game many expected a tough semifinal matchup between the two teams but instead it was usa's biggest breather of the winter games. they scored six goals in the first period coasting to victory. >> we caught them off guard and kept on attacking and was fun to be part of it. >> it was pretty unbelievable that you're in a semifinal game in the olympics and you're up 6-0 ten minutes into the game. it was unbelievable. we played well. can he capitalized on the chances we had and opportunities they gave us. that was the difference. >> it wasn't so easy for team canada to advance to the gold medal game. they nearly blew a three-goal lead against slovakia. it wasn't pretty but it counts as a win which sets up sunday's dream matchup against team usa. the puck will drop for the gold at 3:15 eastern time. >>> add gatorade to the list of sponsors to

i'm joe kernen along with become becky quick. carl quintanilla has made the trek to washington, but may not be able to make the trek back. it's the train, though, right? >> the train, yes. you guys are looking for 6 to 10 inches of snow in. >> yes. it's got to get colder because it's 37 but that supposedly is going to happen -- >> late this afternoon. if you get on the train early, you may be okay. you may be okay. >> but it's -- 70-mile-an-hour winds or something? >> snowicane. >> crazy. the winds will be blowing depends on who you talk to. today's health care event is a ka b -- all those poerngz we spent talking about health care, the town halls last summer, the president's speech on the hill, scott brown he's election going to culminate in today's six-hour meeting at blair house. the president will moderate. democrats and republicans will make opening remarks and then they'll work through four areas. we'll section if the white house brings any new compromises to the table. the journal this morning write about a smaller fallbac

thanks, joe.u, guys, golf lemg end, tom watson actually slammed tiger woods in an interview. watson said tiger, quote, needs to show some humility before he returns to the game and before that do an interview saying i screwed up, i admit it and i'm going to change. watson said tiger needs to clean up his act on the course and not using bad language and throw his clubs which he's done a few times in the past. >> fiery stuff and the company is trying to cash in on the scandal. you know somebody would selling the tiger woods mistress collection of golf balls with pictures of the alleged mistresses. one of them a former adult movie actress. is that the term? she's threatening legal action because she says -- it's a family show, the balls promote violence against women which is no laughing matter and we've not been able to reach the company as of yet for a response. rob snin. >> okay. i'm surprised that someone hasn't thought of tiger woods stuff before now. thank you. i don't think the flights will be

. >> rose: joe califano in new york? >> i guess i think from the president's point of view, it was probably a plus in the sense that it certainly lays the groundwork to position himself as somebody i'm listening, i like to hear it all. but we've got to get on with this thing. and it's the predicate that's needed to really put the heat on the democrats in the house and the senate to move with the bill, to press nancy pelosi, for example, to get enough house votes, to pass the senate course if that's the court they ultimately take. i don't think anybody's mind was changed. i think the differences are truly fundamental, both as donna says in what the role of government is, but also in how you would deal with health care and we can talk about the substantive bill later. but the politics of it, i think for him, a plus in terms of how he positioned himself. >> rose: and for republicans? >> for the republicans, i think you know, they come through as wanting to stop it all and start all over again. and i think he wanted to say,

so our joe carter asked and you told him how you feel about gays in the military. >> reporter: i'm joe carter. this is hln's "views from the street." we're talking to people about issues, issues affecting their lives. are you familiar with the policy in the military don't ask, don't tell? >> uh-huh. >> i have two cousins that are in the arms forces. >> reporter: do you think it matters? >> i don't think it matters at all. >> it shouldn't matter. >> it should be open. >> it often presents a really challenging situation for an institution that's been so conservative for so long. >> well, i think it matters because of the situations that you put them in, the close quarters and i think sometimes that would promote something that might not happen ordinarily. >> there are a lot of close minded people everywhere in the world. i'm sure it would have an effect even though i would like to ideally think that it wouldn't. >> probably some folks in the military would be very challenged by that. but, you know -- >> reporter: does it matter to you personally? >> it doesn't matter to me. >> it's almos

he makes them joe biden choice and takes the safe choice initially. somebody who may be can't hurt you but it will not hurt days help you. he will offer the vice presidency and private to a senator from missouri. the but before it is made public jack kennedy's wheels start rolling. he really a out of courtesy should offer this to linda in. we will not take it. he is senate majority leader and has immense power. he lives for power. he will not be vice president. rose about vice president said a vice president isn't worth of bucket of spent. johnson knew that and saw what the realities were. when jack kennedy trundled down the stairs to lyndon johnson's sweeten the middle of the night to offer the vice presidency, he is quite shocked when he picks up some. and everybody is shocked everybody is upset on all sides of the democratic spectrum. robert kennedy, who has always hated lyndon johnson and vice versa it is outraged. kenny o'donnell, of the closest advisers said you have these trade every single person that has supported you in your first move as th

texarkana, texas, joe is next. he is an independent. xdcaller: going back to whatç u first showed -- moody's bond rating, ifç you believe in that why you put that in the situation you are in? so, the democrats and republicans -- having solid footing. people have to believe in those things. how are they going to get the american public to even think they can go by a performance rating to put their ira's a 41 k in. as far as what the president said yesterday about discretionary spending, there are some many ways they can straighten it out but they cannot even come up with a health care bill to get it straight -- they are not working for the american people. host: san antonio, texas, john on the republican line. caller: how are you doing today? host: very well, thanks for your

chris: thanks, joe, and thanks to citgo and the people of venezuela. hi, i'm joe kennedy from citizens energy, your nonprofit oil company. if you need help staying warm this winter, give us a call at... because no one should be left out in the cold. >>> you're watching 9news now's continuous team coverage. live from the 9news now safety center. >> welcome back. this big storm isn't just making us miserable. it's making everybody miserable as far south as roanoak and new york. he joins us live from time square in the big apple. the snow is coming down upon you. let me start with this. we know here in washington, our public transportation system has been in bad shape. how bad is it in new york where they rely on public transportation? >> things have gone pretty well here, brett and derek. i don't think we have been hit quite as bad as you have been in washington. the snowplows have been out all day here in this area in the middle of the metropolitan area. new york says it costs a million dollars an inch to clear the snow. take a look. traffic is pretty l

joe beninati and craig join us. how about a team that's averaging two goals against during this 11 game run. >> it's good to be cold and shivering inside madison square garden. it was great to see jose theodore turn in a inspiring performance. >> he's on a role. he's playing how everybody thought he would when he first arrived. the holes in his game have closed up. he limited movement. only the odd scramble against the boston bruins. his softies have gone away in the game and he's riding the best run right now of his career. he was spectacular against the bruins. >> throughout this washington streak jose has been buttoned up tight. largest 8-0. only off of pat rigin's record. the percentage over 94 averaging only one goal against five on five and arguably the two best game, 41 saves against the wings and the bruins. >> the capitals were missing nike green. he has one more game to sit out suspended but tom poti is filling the void. >> he's been a steady eddie. no clearing mistakes and positioning very sound. the two

[laughter] key senate majority leader. he lives for power. he's not going to be vice president. this is -- you know, john bamberger who was from texas and was about vice president said vice presidency isn't worth a bucket of warm spit. and lyndon johnson certainly knew that when a cell at the reality for her. so when jack kennedy struggles down the stairs to lyndon johnson's sweet in the middle of the night to offer him the vice presidency, he was quite shocked when lyndon johnson except that. and everybody is shocked and everybody is upset on all sides of the democratic spec term. robert kennedy, who is always hated lyndon johnson and vice

i do not know if anybody is messing with joe, but here is what i do know. a lot of that stimulus cash ended up in some pretty odd places, including districts that did not even exist and programs that really do not have a whole lot to do with stimulating the economy. nearly $6 million was given to a democrat pollster who had already made billions during the presidential primaries. nearly $10 million was spent to update this the milles website --the stimulus website. as someone put it, this was a million-dollar effort using your money to tell you it is spending your money. it did not create a single job. these uses of stimulus funds do not sound targeted or timely as we were promised. they sound ways all. in the case of those signs, kind of relax --the sound wasteful -- they sound wasteful. in the case of those signs, kind of ridiculous. did you feel stimulated? it turns out that washington got the price tag wrong. these programs cost billions of dollars more than we were told. it is closer to $860 billion. the white house cannot even tell us how much jobs we

being joe.it. i don't think that's the case. i think he's still an important advisor to the president on especially foreign issues. we're going to be talking -- interestingly, we're going tab tuck to go two senators, because one of the big questions is are they going to go ahead with reconciliation and if they do and it's not clear, do they have the votes? we'll be talking to john kyle and bob menendez about about that. then we'll talk to the one guy that seemed the president was a little afraid to mess with yesterday and that's ryan, the congressman from wisconsin because he knows that ryan may know as much or even more about all these issues than he does and finally, our power play of the week, and i must say, i never met him, it's dale earnhardt, junior. and we talk about his career. we talk about his dad. >> brian: you get -- we get to talk to chris wallace. >> i get a feeling i'm getting the bum rush here. >> brian: you are. you got an appointment. thanks a lot, chris. fox news alert, new g

don't want to leave joe out. >> joe and bill. >> larry: it is biggest problem is jobs.o many people out of work. his critics say your husband should be doing more, he promised more. how do you react? >> yes. until the unemployment numbers go down, i don't think my husband is satisfied. more is coming. a lot was saved with the stimulus, and again, it's hard to tell people who are hurting that things could have been worse if we hadn't done what we'd done. so, you know, there's no points in pointing back. there's a lot more to be done and he's not satisfied until the unemployment figures go down. >> larry: it was so bitter, rather bitter in the campaign with hillary when they were going at each other. >> yeah. it seems so long ago. >> larry: how are they doing now together? >> they're great. hillary clinton is an amazing secretary of state. i mean, she would have been an amazing president. she was an amazing attorney. she's a phenomenal professional. and she's proven to be a tremendous asset in so many ways. so the relationship is strong. they share the same views in terms

he has his roots in the joe paternal school. he's a meantee of joe paternal.o i think nothing surprises him. and i think the team follows his lead the same as it did with dungee. it's the same thing with sean paten. i think the team gets sky high and stays extremely motivated and pound up during a game. i don't think either team has an advantage in that way. i would say the one thing i like about sean paten and what he does, he calls the offensive plays and i think he is excellent. as good as anybody in the game right now at in-game adjustments. when he sees a team doing something to him he figures it out just like manning does and what he does is he changes things from series to series to account for the defensive changes that he sees. >> charlie: so you've got manning's ability to adapt and the whole inspirational thing going. what about the pass rush of the new orleans saints? >> well the pass work of the saints, charlie, is a weird amalgam of kind of a buddy ryan clone. a guy named greg williams a defensive coordinator of saint. what he likes to do is do s
