michigan, why is michigan important? it's a money pit. an incumbent, you don't want to spend money and resources in states you should have to win easily. this happened in 2004. remember with bush and kerry. bush forced kerry to spend money in pennsylvania. i think states to watch besides michigan are wisconsin, indiana, ohio. these are states that have historically trended democratic. now republicans in the south when bush was running, the strategy was went south of the mason dixon line and pick up other states like florida. this time around, i think obama will have to go on defense and spend money on states he does not think he was going to have to. i think romney is going to be able to play off of -- >> dana: greg hasn't had a chance to comment. before we get to greg, can i mention one thing? four states where the obama campaign is not spending resources. nebraska, north dakota, missouri and montana. all of those four become pickup state for possible republicans in -- >> bob: they were republican last time. >> dana: in the senate. it ma

the gentleman from michigan, mr. camp. mr. camp: mr. speaker, i yield two minutes to a distinguished member of the ways and means committee, the gentleman from nebraska, mr. smith. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from nebraska is recognized for two minutes. mr. smith: thank you, mr. chairman. thank you, mr. speaker. i rise in support of the bill today, to repeal the health care law. in speaking with employers in the third district of nebraska, it's been very interesting to hear their perspective. when they are holding off on hiring because they simply do not know how much a new employee will cost due to these government mandates, in fact, they're paying overtime to very willing employees because the employees currently are so concerned about the economy, they're certainly eager to work that overtime so they can achieve some financial security. so we've got an imbalance here in the employment sector and we need to fix that. i'm also concerned that the very bureaucratic approach, for example, with the small business tax c

the interview is fourished by pure michigan -- furnished by pure michigan. >>> this is great to havewhat's going on this morning? >> well, i'm here in michigan on the old pence la. as you can see, there's a beautiful place. we're just talking about michigan goods, michigan ingredients and how to make it delicious. >> i didn't know anything came out of michigan but carburetors. >> that's always a good bet. have you ever heard of michigan cherries? >> no. >> here in michigan we consider we're in the cherry capital of america. we're also on lake michigan so there's amazing lake fish. the deliciousness abounds. it's all about delicious and local ingredients. that's why i spend my time here in the summer. >> very good. what do you feel do you have this morning? -- what do you have this morning? >> it's a peadina. you roll it out until it's thin like this. we put it right on the grill. what i love about that is when you're grilling it doesn't just have to be ribs or hamburgers or hot dogs. it makes something that's delicious and unexpected for your guests. i throw this pie crust on here an

we've had a lot of those conversations with people in michigan. your testimony showed a sign that said we've seen 2.4 million american jobs shipped overseas in the past decade. truly, how is it that every u.s. lawmaker regardless of party affiliation isn't signing on to your bill? everyone should. >> you know, there is no question about that. we get things like wow, we need to do broad tax reform. okay, fine but let's start by closing this loophole first. this will be number one. loophole closing. and then we'll go on from there. there is no substantive reason we should be allowing a tax write-off for companies that are packing up and shipping the jobs overseas and then you have people in michigan, for example who not only lose their jobs, they get to help pay for the move. it is absolutely ridiculous. >> jennifer: so that's the loophole itself is that it allows them to deduct the expenses for moving? >> yes. what we're doing in the bill is very simple and straightforward. i really kept it that way. there is a lot of different issues in the tax co

michigan with 16. hampshire with four went in the tossup category. >> bret: other changes happened. a number of categories of states changed. >> yeah. three tossup states moved toward obama. by one point. three romney states got stronger for romney by anywhere between three points and ten points. three states that were obama states got better for romney. again, didn't change the status. three obama states got better for obama. >> bret: six and six. >> the bigger changes happened in the states that were safe for romney. the second largest set of shifts occurred in states that were safe for obama. but the only ones that mattered were the three states, michigan and new hampshire where the status changed. >> bret: what are you seeing on the map? particularly, where the obama campaign is deploying money to advertise? >> they start putting money in new hampshire last week. in the tv ads there. they have added money in pennsylvania this week. which sort of, when you look at the new hampshire move to tossup, m

ford's modest beginnings in rural michigan and his rise to power as he can one of america's wealthiest businessmen in a global celebrity. the ford motor company sold its first car on july 23rd, 1903. >>> thank you very much for coming out this evening. i appreciate it. i'm going to speak for maybe 20 minutes or so. they said they would like that and then we will have lots of time for questions and the answers and we can try to answer anything then you would ask me. in in 1928, henry ford created a public uproar as he often liked to do and was asked about a pathway to success in anassoci interview with the associatedat press on the 20 anniversary of the launching of the model t and he maintains that the hard w traditional formula , w of hard staple of advice from benjamin franklin to horatio alger, was only half right. hard work, ed, was still a good idea, but thrift was useless. successful people did not save money, he said, but they spent it, as fast as they could, in his words, in order to improve themselves. within a few days, news of henry ford's gospel of spending had swept throug

michigan is a key swing state, a state that benefited from the auto bailout. so many people out of work. what are employers saying about the economy. >> as we went through the job fair, christine, a lot of employers said they do have jobs to fill. we went back to general motors to learn a little more company specific what did they have in mind of the types of jobs they want to fill. have a listen. >> we're looking for engineers, technicians and production jobs. we have all those available. of course military veterans well trained in those areas are able to apply those skills through the door. >> the appeal of the veterans is they are disciplined. they have a lot of very positive work ethic but when you talk to the employers and when you talk to the veterans there's a fundamental mismatch. the veterans need the skills, job training, advanced education for the job market that is increasingly high-tech that employers are looking for fill. that's the way they believe the veterans can escape the minimum wage rut. a lot of them like luke marang say they are living i

lg chem put it's new factory in the state hardest hit by the recession, michigan, hiring 400 michigan workers to make the batteries and more u.s. workers to construct the plant. as governor, i went to south korea to lure lg chem to open the plant in holland michigan. i was there when two years ago with president obama for the plant's groundbreaking. what they don't say is that this factory is touted as the pride of a region that was devastated by the loss of fractactories under the george w. bush administration because bush had no manufacturing policy. now, mitt, if you want to say that international companies coming to america to employ americans for products manufactured for sale in america are not welcome here, well good luck in november and then in your next failed presidential campaign. by the way, you will want to whisper your no-luring foreign investment policy to your fellow republican governors like vp chris christie who just returned offering israeli companies tax breaks for jobs. all of these governors are smart to do anything to create good paying jobs for their people. so

sorry, michigan, that's all we've got. ultimately, the people who lived along the kalamazoo river didn't have to wait one month, two months, four months, five months, six months. it took the oil company two years to clean up the mess they made in michigan. that oil spill happened in july 2010. it was not until three weeks ago this year that the calmuzooz river reopened to the public and it reopened dephyte the fact there is still oil submerged beneath the oil bed. they got their river back, significantly worse for wear. and today, today, they got to learn what happened in the first place, way back in 2010 on the day that giant spill turned their lives upside down. the ntsb, the national transportation safety board released findings of their investigation into what happened in that spill. they found that the oil company responsible for that pipeline knew about cracks in that particular stretch of pipeline a full five years before the pipe ruptured. quoting the ntsb, for five years, they did nothing to address the corrosion

doesn't matter if you're a democrat or a republican in michigan, we want jobs in michigan and we don't want to have the insult of helping to pay for jobs that are packed up and sent overseas. so this is very simple. >> great to have you with us. makes sense to me and a lot of americans. we'll see where it goes. we'll score this to see what republicans side with workers in this country. there's a lot more coming up in the next half hour of "the ed show." >> he's speaking, by the way, of this business, like this one. if you have a business, you didn't build that. somebody else made that happen. >> middle class mitt romney takes another swipe at trying to help workers and totally misses. we'll explain with the big panel next. >>> how long can mitt romney's tax disaster go until the republicans start thinking about going to the bench? howard fineman weighs in. >>> and the labor leaders begin a new fight to raise the federal minimum wage. we'll tell you why a living wage needs to become a reality. idide? you're not my dad ahh!! hey honey, back feels better, little dancing tonight, you and m

michigan and part of minnesota for all of which were claimed by virginia at that point. it's why, for instance, kentucky claims the ohio river and its own property that the borders on the north bank because what was ceded by virginia was the land northwest of the river. so congress organized this in 1787 as initially as a territory of the northwest territory, and there were rules made for the development of society in that vast area. some of them followed, some of them not. but it was initially federal territory. and they provided for the eventual, eventual creation of space in a territory. and illinois was ultimately one of them. >> so in 1812, when the war began, let's see, ohio was a state. in the and was a territory. illinois, as you described it was not only a territory but went straight up through wisconsin and part of what we call the upper peninsula of michigan, and even a little tiny corner of minnesota. so illinois was big territory. now, why don't you -- tell us, who was here, what languages were they speaking in illinois. by here, i mean illinois in 1812 when

any michigan indian can attend a public college in michigan and the state pays the tuition because of that treaty. those treaties are real. so i just want to commend you for what you're doing. this is retained sovereignty, and you have an obligation to your people, to yourself, both morally and legally, to fight for that. and we -- if the supreme court does something we don't like, which is a terrible mistake they make, we should undo that. we can undo that. we ultimately have to uphold this constitution. i commend the member mr. lujan, the ranking member and my

herbruck from the michigan standpoint. mr. lathem, you talked about coming together with differing views, and folks normally not on the same side coming together and finding common ground. we are used to doing that in this committee. that is how we got a bipartisan farm bill. we are proud of that and how we were able to pass it in the senate. i am hoping we will be able to come together and find common ground on this very important issue for egg producers around the country. >> it is important, and we do appreciate that. >> thank you. the hearing is adjourned. >> tomorrow, a discussion on insurance health exchange as part of the new health-care law. they then will be in place in january 2014. live coverage from the alliance for health reform at 9:30 eastern on c-span 2. later, here on c-span, former house speaker and presidential candidate newt gingrich will be speaking about conservative leadership. that is from the loose institute. -- luce institute. the house today finished legislative work for a week. on the floor, members

these storms are flying down through michigan.hey're heading in the general direction of detroit and ann arbor. if they maintain the intensity, we're going to watch this developing. if you're driving anywhere on 94, it sooner or later will roll down your way. as far as what happened yesterday, just incredible heat, of course wrks the triple digits. i circled all locations that hit the hundreds. even raleigh snuck in with 101. st. louis, what a stretch it has been. the heat index this morning has not gone down that much. it feels like 89 in st. louis and 86 in minneapolis. and because it's so humid out there and so warm, we have heat warnings for almost all of the lower great lakes, ohio valley and the great plains. 100-degree highs once again. peaking at 106 in st. louis. get ready in the atlantic. we're watching in d.c. and raleigh. that's a look at your national forecast. now here's a look outside your window. new york city, about 91 degrees. areas of new england, a cost moves to the south. going to be humid. a little less coole

into michigan.here'll be numerous other storms late today that will move through areas of iowa and later this evening probably after dark toward chicago, detroit, and areas like cleveland. now, we're also dealing with incredible heat in some of those same spots. we have heat advisories for chicago, indianapolis, and how hot will it get today? pretty incredibly warm out there. we're going to see temperatures near 100 to 106 from oklahoma city all the way up here through the ohio valley. ouch. that's a look at your national forecast. now here's a look at the weather outside your window. today, call it 102 in indianapolis. the good news is that is probably the worst of the heat for that region. the cold front coming down will even bring a chance for rain in areas that desperately need it. so some of that relief comes tomorrow. details coming up. >> that's some good news. bill, thanks so much. >>> coming up, apple sours, netflix flops, and like it or not, same-sex marriage is good for business. your ear

they're creating new niew englands, in upstate new york, in michigan, ohio, michigan territory scarcely settled ten years later was a state six years later and filled up with largely with new england yankee stock people from upstate new york. yet pennsylvanians sort of going directly west from philadelphia. so they got to cincinnati where if you look at the downtown street grid and adjust it to the side you will see that the street names are exact -- almost exactly the same as center city, philadelphia. they've copied the street grid. and the accent, local accent in cincinnati with the ex end it persists is very much like the accent of philadelphia. they're going directly -- the new england yankees are very much setting up these voluntary associations, making a lot of noise moralistic, the philadelphians coming sort of from the quaker tradition are quiet, they're tolerant of corruption outside their own circle but they insist of moral behavior within it. they're part of the anti-slavery movement, too. in the south you've got the great movement of slave holders and of the slaves themselv

a call from dearborn, michigan. go ahead, steve. >> hi. >> caller: hi. i -- i'm calling you from dearborn which i understand is named after a war of 1812 general, and it's right outside of detroit. >> that's right. >> caller: a suburb of detroit which is one of the cities that fell to the british or surrendered to the british early in the war. somebody asked me the other day, and i don't know the answer to this question. what was the triggering event that caused congress to declare war or the british to declare war on us? >> that's an excellent question. so to set the record straight, it was the united states that declared war on great britain. they only declared war on us after we declared war on them first. now, you can say we were bullied into it because they were stealing american sailors and ships on the frontier, like you guys up there in michigan, the accusation was made that they were giving guns and ammunition to the indians and urging them to shoot white settlers, and they have found, you know, at the time, they have found food and weapons amon

we'll be all over southeast michigan.rcover officer is at the mercy of the prostitutes to determine where and when the meet takes place and causes these operations to move quickly. >> because we're going into the unknown we'll have emergency planning in case something happens. we'll make sure everyone is vested up so we're taking those precautions to make sure that we have safety out there for our officers. >> don't recognize her. she's new. >> once again, detectives comb the online ads, looking for possible juveniles. >> she's put up more pictures. >> the undercover makes contact with a very young looking woman going by the name mercedes. >> says she was 18 years old and that she was willing to do new lap dancing but no sex or [ bleep ]. i responded back, would she be willing to do a hand job. she said she would be. right now we're texting back and forth. i asked if she's willing to do a car date. she's responding back. >> mercedes agrees to $60 for a car date. and the team is off and running. detectives keep a watchful

from nevada and colorado in the west, notice, no wisconsin or michigan net.g. they are in eight of the same nine states but no pi pi, no michigan, and no wisconsin. a lot of the skipping seems to have to do with the fact that they are all a little nervous about the saturation during the recall. let's move on. this is the coke brothers. look at the additional states we have here. they are in wisconsin. they are in minnesota and new mexico. two states sort of, republican dreams if you will. certain women for america were both up in those states. americans for prosperity went ahead and picked it up, running their adds here. we will see if it moves any numbers. i'm going to go back basically a month. so four weeks ago, this one was the top ten markets. four of the ten were in. a week later you still had a couple -- you had one north carolina market in the top ten. as you see there it went from columbus to richmond. watch closely in the back and fourth. you will see it teeters back and forth. colorado makes its debut. look what state is not on here any more. look

that doesn't help anybody. >> michigan's -- >> ypt i don't want to see that >> thank you.te it. >> thanks, luke. >>> the political panel bb here next. we're digging deeper in to how the economy is shaping this race. >>> senator john mccain goes after one of his own. >>> but first, the white house soup of the day. roasted red pepper. i like roasted red pepper. i like it in hummus, on my french fries and in my soup. big fan of roasted red pepper. don't forget you can always find the show on facebook. you're watching "the daily rundown" only on msnbc. take it out! the song, i like it.

citizens are voting in michigan?unfortunately, our nonpartisan auditor general did an audit and found that between 2008 and 2011, over 1300 dead people cast ballots and about 50 imprisoned inmates cast ballots which neither of which should happen. so we do need to make sure we make sure that we uphold the integrity of our elections and i believe that valid voters are disenfranchised when invalid votes are cast. >> eric: that's an interesting argument because, you know, critics always say that these type of laws disenfranchise minorities, the elderly and all ends in voter suppression. >> i think that's very unfortunate. our chief justice of the supreme court bob young ruled that voter i.d. laws do protect voters and thereby prevent lawful voters from having their votes diluted by those that cast fraudulent ballots. our chief justice is an african-american and he's looking out for the voters and make sure they're counted. >> eric: in troy, new york the allegations is the politicians just faked them. we've seen convicti
