american worker. >> i'm barack obama, and i approve this message. >> that ad is airing in several michigan cities ahead of the republican primary on tuesday. >>> turning overseas, afghan president hamid karzai is calling for restraint by protesters today following an apology from president obama over the burning of the muslim holy books at a u.s. air base. the incident triggered three days of violent demonstrations, including a protest yesterday where two american troops were killed by a man wearing an afghan army uniform. the taliban is urging protesters to attack international forces and even some members of parliament are encouraging jihad. in an effort to stop the violence, president obama wrote a letter to afghan president hamid karzai reading in part, quote, i wish to express my deep regret for the reported incident. i extend to you and the afghan people my sincere apologies. the error was inadvertentent. i assure you that we will take the appropriate steps to avoid any recurrence to include holding those accountable. the u.s. soldiers who burned the korans and other religious materials say

including the latest nbc poll, he's in a virtual tie with mitt romney, today campaigning in two more michigan cities. what's your read at this point? does rick santorum have a real shot at winning michigan? >> absolutely. i think it's still very much up in the air. and you do see in the polls, you see a bit of a positive trajectory for romney, you see santorum falling off a little bit. i don't think they've put it away by any means. we've heard confidence out of the romney camp. they've been saying they're sure he's going to win and win big. they're not doing anything to dampen those expectations. if they did, people would laugh. there's no question he has to win michigan. but it's still up in the air. a lot of people have already voted. there's a lot of absentee ballots that have been returned in michigan. those ballots were coming in when the polls were telling us something different. >> if rick santorum had mitt romney's machine, had mitt romney's money, had mitt romney's ground game, would rick santorum be in much better shape now or do you not think it matters a whole lot? >> if anybody had a g

. >>> one of the most surprising experiences i had on "lockup" i was working in michigan city, indiana, my hometown at indiana state penitentiary and i actually ran into somebody i used to hang out with when i was a child. we were shooting in the visitation room and i kind of saw him out of the corner of my eye, and it was one of those odd moments because what do you do? i didn't want to interrupt his visit and say hello, but later on as we were interviewing somebody else, he found me and came up to me and started talking to me, and talking to him for a good while and it was just the most interesting experience because i hadn't seen him in years and to be talking to him as he's now an inmate and, you know, when we were 12, 13 years old i would never have guessed i would have been seeing him in this position. >> visitation often proves to be a place not only to find great stories, but to see inmates in a different light. >> when we first met jonathan hall serving 40 years for second degree murder at colorado's lyman correctional facility, we wouldn't have guessed that one of the most em

governor snyder is already drawing up plans to put one of his little dictators in charge of michigan's biggest city detroit we look across the ocean to see what's going on in greece where unlike the technocrats are shoving austerity measures down the throats of the people and we think what a mess that is there are newsflash the exact same thing is going on right now in michigan which is not getting the headlines and the ongoing movement the wolverine state to repeal this law and recall governor snyder is also not getting the sort of national attention that it deserves and that was wisconsin has received and then there's what's going on in minnesota right now. there's there are some of minnesota's wealthiest residents are pulling resources together to create a giant lobbying group known as minnesota forward that is fighting for lower corporate taxes less government spending and funneling huge amounts of money into republican candidates to pass strict new voter id laws the democratic governor of minnesota mark dayton vetoed a voter id law last year but the millionaires and billionaires are trying to

he did that last night in two more michigan cities. what is your read at this point? do you think rick santorum has a real shot at wing michigan? >> i think those early votes that you and felicia are talking about are huge. this is romney's big advantage and he's always done well in states where he can bank those votes early and then come back and focus his turnout machine on those that he can actually turnout on election day. that was thanks to a lot of those early votes. arizona and michigan in both cases early voting was going matter a lot. romney leading by just two points looks like it will be a close race, but i think this race has shifted back to mitt ad a terrible debate performance. as the front-runner he didn't step up and sort of grabbed that role by the collars. he sort of let his opportunity slide away. the momentum has shifted back to romney. i think rom neil end up winning by four or five points and the poll shows it about tied and it shows santorum leading by a wide margin. the momentum is on mitt romney's side. >> seesaw poll leadiing leading election

>> well, with the republican primary voters particularly in traverse city michigan and up north with a stronger evangelical presence than in the suburbs of detroit, it works well. you get the sense that santorum is betting there's no republican who can win michigan in the fall, but santorum's all about trying to humiliate romney. if he can do that by turning out the evangelical vote, the very stride ept, right wing evangelical voters who may have a big voice in this primary, that's what he's going after. as counter intuitive as it might sound, santorum is banking on a heavier turnout of evangelicals and they like that kind of charge that the government is trying to somehow take away your religion. even though we may look at it and say that's crazy san at her rum gets a receptive greet be in places like traverse city. >> let's listen to some half the amazing things that have happened and he has said over the weekend: >> this feels good being back in michigan. the trees are the right height. >> most of the cars i see are detroit made automobiles. i drive a chevy and pickup truck. cann

job creation, especially since the project can be done without any michigan taxpayer dollars. [ applause ] second, a number of our cities and schools are suffering major financial distress. this problem is not a new one, but it's an important topic we should fully address in 2012. when i came into office, we had six cities or school districts under emergency financial management. last year, one more joined the list. there is a lot of speculation as to why jurisdiction got in trouble. the overriding feature is they lost population without a cost structure. the long-term answer is not just about cutting costs. it is how to create a financially solid foundation so that growth can occur again. [ applause ] the state's role is to help jurisdiction solve their own problems. in that regard, we passed the fiscal accountability act. often known as pa 4. first, it helps communities identify and solve problems as soon as problem and prior to a financial emergency. second, when there is a financial emergency, it is intended to quickly and effectively solve the problems so the community can get back on a positive path.
