mike bloomberg gets high marks, generally speaking, for quality of life issues. i think he has utterly missed the boat. issues of race and class. that is what you see being played out in this enthusiasm that he has around him right now. takee feel he is going to on the issue of race and class in new york. give me your assessment of what you would be saying to ask how to navigate issues of race and class. >> well, first, overall, he's been a good mayor and did a good job. i think he made a serious error of judgment seeking a third term. they change the law in order to achieve that. error andat was an that may be the first time i haveaid that publicly. it,ld him before he did that it would negatively impact his legacy. and it has. it may have cost the election. if you have $30 billion that you made yourself, it is hard to not believe you are the smartest guy in the room. and he is a pretty smart fella that does a lot of good things. i recall introducing him on one .ccasion some years ago i made it a point in my introduction that i did not know , and ioing to get to

look, de blasio we know will be significantly more liberal on economic and social policy than mike bloombergto define what it is that he's going to focus on, care about and talk about once he very likely becomes mayor. >> and very interesting will be what he says about questions about stop and frisk, which is so controversial in new york. thank you very much and we'll look to the white house and hill to see whether they come up with a deal. that does it for this edition of "andrea mitchell reports." follow the show online and on twitter at mitchellreports. tamron hall has a look at what's next on "news nation." >> several big stories developing in the first hour. first in washington, a deal to break the budget stalemate once again appears out of reach. the white house says it is optimistic but harry reid accuses republicans of blind siding him of threats to torpedo a plan on the debt ceiling. one of al al qaeda's top leaders, it follows ten days of questioning on board. richard engel was in court and will bring the latest to us live. >> we're moments away from president obama awarding the me

mike bloomberg walked into the bullpen and said four words i will never forget.the world is ending." indeed, the events of that time led to the worst economic crisis any of us has seen in our lifetimes. when president obama took office in 2009, the housing market was in freefall. home prices have fallen nearly 20% from the year before. the largest one-year drop ever measured. roughly 3 million borrowers were seriously delinquent, construction projects and plans came to a halt, causing the industry to lose 100,000 jobs a month. across the board, we saw dramatic declines. of course, these drops represented more than shipping spreadsheet.s on a they represented people's lives, savings, and struggles. and i tookesident office, we set in place a number of priorities which still guide us today. one, to provide immediate assistance to those in need. two, to work with public and private sector partners to strengthen the housing market and help fuel an overall economic recovery. three, to ensure a crisis of this magnitude never happens again. the firstrt with goal, provid

mike bloomberg did pretty well. lost by four or five points. but the mayor spent over $100 million. billorsed him again, but one. he worked in our office in city hall and worked with bill lynch, known to many as a rumpled genius. it brought him along as he has done so many others. bill is dead now and has his reward. but he has left quite a legacy. >> you endorse him now that he is one of the two finalists? >> absolutely. i called them on election night and congratulated him, offering to do whatever i could the help. -- to help. he not only worked for us, but his wife did, too. she worked in our speech office. the office of the reporters, the news office. she was terrific. very pleased that they are together. i suppose the whole world knows about dante and his afro. tavis: you are the first african-american mayor, but he is married to annette -- an african-american woman and his son has a huge afro. the president gave his afro a shout out. most multicultural

and i will never forget sitting in that famous the bullpen that mike bloomberg set up at city hall inew york. we were watching the giant television screen that get set up, and usually on normal days, taking on that screen would be how many potholes have been filled in the city of new york, how many lights were out in various places, all the major metrics he would measure for how the city was doing. very, very bloomberg. but on that day the entire screen was focused on cnn, on the floor of the house of representatives, and we were watching as the vote was being taken on the first financial rescue package. and at the very moment it became clear that that vote was going to fail, mike bloomberg walked into the bullpen and said four words i'll never forget. the world is ending. indeed, the events of that time led to the worst economic crisis that any of us have seen in our lifetime. when president obama took office in 2009, the housing market was in freefall. home prices had fallen nearly 20% from year before, the largest when you drop ever measured. roughly 3 million borrowers were seriou

>> yes, and i took it over 12 months ago, 13 months ago and i had to give mike bloomberg a lot of credit wanted this built. this was under construction during many mayoral administrations, for many years, 27 years. the cost was hundreds of millions of dollars was spent. i took it over about 13 months ago and i really knocked heads and we got it built and it's getting ready to open. >> dave: why has it taken 27 years? >> there's a lot of incompetence. but let's say there could have been a little corruption. >> dave: why don't you take over the second avenue subway. that will never be finished. why don't you do that? >> well, it's called the subway to many nowhere. >> dave: i know but take it over and get it finished and then it will be the trump subway. >> well, then i might do it. then i might do it! (applause) >> dave: now here's the golf course. what bridge is that? the verrazano bridge. >> dave: he's a great architect, great golf architect. >> dave: what bridge is that? did i get it right? >> that's the whitestone bridge. >> dave: i wasn't even close. >> we're right smack on the water

this is mike bloomberg all over again. >> when he was found out he said he had no moral responsibilityrinking because it wasn't his house, his party or his state and he is running for governor. >> i'm the top law enforcement guy and this is not my state. >> i think more pictures are going to surface him. one of him inside of a bank vault being robbed but it won't be in his state. it is amazing. the first excuse was crazy. >> so, he has now come forward as we saw and saying that he is sorry for this. is that good enough do you think people will let this pass? >> he says he is responsible for this kid. he left this kid there. it was cool i lefleft. so he is a parent. who is i texting pictures to? he had the phone in hand. was he texting anthony weiner? >> don't show up as your teen son's party. that is like the worst thing you can do as a parent. got to move onto what a teacher did. so apparently it was one of the student's birthdays. brought him to his house gave him some booze and he had the bright idea let's go to a strip club. >> this goes to what you said about parents wanting to be

social safety net that they fun we need to continue to diversify our econmy and so theeeds that mike bloomberghe high-tech industry. it is number two in high-tech companies and we need to expand that. we have the best medical schools in the coury. the scientists are not talking about this always, these are industries that we needdto have unlike detroit wich had all of its eggs in one basket. and when the auto industr decided to go elsewhere, there was nothing else like it. >> but how did you get the politics that are extraordinarily powerful as a politica tool? i could be making $75,000 a year. i used to drive a cab, but now i do not and i'mtaking care of my family. that someone could remind me that the wall street guys re making millions of dollars a year and how unfair that is to me and my kids and buy into it. >> well, i have an opponent that is driving class warfare right now with the campaign and the tale of two cities where he is pitting one against anotr. but it's really unfortunate. here's what we need to do. weeed to make sure th children are educated and that we expad our economy and

new york city mayor mike bloomberg is -- also his record on guns. >> here are a few things mark obenshane tried to outlaw, birth control pills, women choosing to have an abortion, even in the case of rape or insent. but when it comes to actually criminals, ownen bain voted to -- one gun a month law, meanings criminals could buy guns in bulk. instead of dictating to women, virginia needs an attorney general who cracks down on real criminals. >> the attorney general's race in the state of virginia is the one that's being seen as a high stakes race. is the potential for a democratic clean sweep that big of a deal? virginia? now that we're seeing all this external money coming into this race, is it that big of a deal? in the last two presidential votes, virginia's popular vote matched up with the national popular vote. so what happens in virginia broadly, especially in the beltway, but broadly is seen as bell weather stuff. the idea that republicans are now facing a state wide sweep and all state wide offices going into the democrats, it would ring a lo

. >> what happens is you're transferring power to these individuals, like a mike bloomberg or a davidkarl rove who sets up one of these groups. you're transferring power from the candidate you vote for to somebody you don't know who will have a say. >> but often someone who knows exactly what the candidate wants to do. increasingly the idea of working without coordination is kind of a fiction. >> but then it also decentralized the political parties which also has caused why we're here today. while john boehner has no real influence. >> which is the argument the rnc is making right now. we don't have enough influence. we need no caps. >> shameless plugs. >> i think it is shameless that a private organization has to cover the costs to take the families to dover air force to see the caskets of the five folks that were killed. >> that gets fixed today. >> i'm glad that private organization is stepping in to do it. >> we have a delightful story about what happens when your spouse grows a furlough beard and you just want them out of the house. the spouses of federal workers who are dying fo

we've been meeting with mike bloomberg and 30 mayors from big cities all around the country.ne of the things people are talking about, this incredible movement of people from the suburbs back into the cities for opportunities for jobs. we know we've seen retail come back to the cities. what most people have any neglected. they thought the high tech companies the sur bur ban firms where they like to drive the porsche or beamer, a massive move from silicon valley, the googles and yahoo!s still have headquarters in the valley but the young companies are going to downtown san francisco. $2.5 billion in venture investment, hundreds of start hups in manhattan. it's something that few people were prepared for. it's not only people moving back to cities but high tech jobs coming back in a massive way. >> i want to underline a quote, brooklyn is a major trend setter for everything from film and tv to indy rock to artisanal food and brooklyn is indeed awesome. >> that's a brooklyn bump right there. >> as you're saying, we have the entrepreneurial activity moving into cities, brooklyn,

that's the same amount that mike bloomberg put on tv in support of cory booker.banding resources for next year but he is not someone who has to do that. i think it's a missed opportunity to really introduce himself to voters around the state in a place he will have to run again next year. i'm guessing it went into field and

you've got mike bloomberg going around on staten island, governor christie has 10 stops today. governor cuomo, laguardia, the subway station. are they going to take the heat or are they getting points for being engaged? >> it's a mixed bag. some people are saying the governors did a great job. in new york and some areas, new york city especially was able to roll out a lot of help from its own coffers and get people on their feet while it waited for a repayment. that didn't happen in new jersey. you have a lot of people angry especially in staten island where people want to rebuild and they can't seem to get the money to do so. so it depends on who you're speaking to. a lot of people say christie's fault, bloomberg, cuomo's fault. you find others who the process works for. it depends on who you talk to. the recovery is uneven pref katy tur, thank you. you've been there since the beginning. great to see you back and get your take on it. >>> the seaside heights roller coaster was one of the iconic images of superstorm sandy representing not only the force of the storm but how life

. >> in june new york mayor mike bloomberg released a $20 billion plan to make the city more resilient. it calls for several small barriers at strategic locations as well as plenty of new seawalls. but it does not support construction of massive storm surge barriers like they have built in places like the netherlands. building structures that expensive and extensive would surely require regional if not national planning and support. >> ifill: tomorrow mile reports from the netherlands, a world leader in adapting to rising sea levels and severe storms. >> ifill: now to detroit, for the latest in the struggle to right the teetering finances of michigan's largest city. a federal judge is hearing arguments over whether the city qualifies for bankruptcy protection. jeffrey brown gets the latest. >> brown: the day started with testimony from kevyn orr, the city's emergency manager. then for three hours, michigan governor rick snyder, who appointed orr, took the stand. it's the first time in modern state history a governor testified in court, and he faced a series of questions from the unions

. >> mike bloomberg received a budget of $34 million, it's 76 million.t's being driven by the pnensin costs. we need to think about it. our pension is funded much better than other pension systems. it's required to do that because we balance our budget based on general accepted accounting principles. no other minute unicipality or does it. >> so what are you going to do? mr. de blasio was talking about raising taxes on the highest earners in the city. we already have a high tax rate, roughly 13% of our wages. what are you going to do to address this? >> i said this, bill is wrong about raising taxes. it's the highest taxes in the country. quite honestly, the taxes will raise less than 1% of the entire city budget. when i was budget director for rudy giuliani, i used to find 4%, 5% savings, finding efficiencies, doing more with the dollars given and create efficiencies. i gave mayor giuliani, a time to influence programs. es that's not being done in the city government now. any money coming in is being used to spend it. we need to put the spending of the

. >> the measure goes to mayor mike bloomberg who said he will sign it. >> turning to business news, wall street waking up in a down mood. >> we have the latest financial headlines. good morning. >> good morning, thomas, stephanie. you can credit the down mood to uncertainty and not halloween. right now, stock futures are lower. that may mean more selling when the markets open. stocks fell yesterday with that investors reacted to the fed chiefs announcement to maintain the program. the fed's decision shows the economy still needs support. the dow and s&p fell. the dow now stands at 15,600. the s&p is down a half% at about 1760. overseas, traders still trying to make sense out of it all, trying to figure out what the fed's decision means for them. european stocks are mostly lower right now and in asia, tocks are slumping, the nikkei down 1%, hong kong and shanghai in the red. if the fed indicating the economy is not showing improvement, one analyst says wall street could see a big time price drop. >> exuberance could take it higher, but the fact is the stock market is not being suppor

mike bloomberg doesn't like his policy, stop and frisk among them. crime could go back up.ta is dialing into something out there. >> here's where political commercials loads people is when you go from saying okay, you want to let's sort of use the fear of increased crime to go to those pictures. >> crown heights. >> race riots and drive-by shootings and again, a political ad could be effective has to be believable. right. it has to speak to more than simply the people in mr. lohta's case, who are very few who are voting for him. to say to somebody, your crime statistics might go up might be a decent argument. if it's followed by a huge riot. >> that's the kirng thing, catty, they could have used a lot of other images other than crown heights, other than the worst race riots since '68. >> that sort of elevation of new york as the bad days of how it used to be, that's how he is tapping into the sets. the insuring that i knew growing up was this dangerous city, you never go to. because it was just too scary and there is something about that ad. >> especially the early 1990s. >

terry mcauliffe went up and sort of paid homage to mike bloomberg in august so presumably he's happy a cultural new york mayor having a positive impact for a democrat in the state seems a puzzle. >> that was my question. if you've got an eight-point spread with two weeks to go, we know terry mcauliffe courted mayor bloomberg, came to new york city and asked for him to get involved. >> right. >> do you think that's wise with an eight-point lead? >> we'll definitely see. mccauliff's positions on gun control, if you go issue by issue are popular. but the last thing he wants to do, especially still battling the carpetbagger reputation in virginia, the last thing you want to be doing is seen as kind of a national democrat rather than a virginia democrat. so i would really see this as at best a toss-up. to be honest, the last thing you want to be is mark prior out in arkansas where bloomberg's money really create ags backlash and helps republicans. >> obviously the cuccinelli campaign is jumping on this saying tens of millions of outside dollars coming into our state to restrict our gun ri
