after the ad ran and presumably after senator nelson spoke to you he put out a statement that said if this is an indication of the politics going into august, health care reform might be dead by the end of august. the groups paying to run this ad that features you then announced that they would triple the amount of money they're spending to run the ad. they're both sort of raising the stakes on one another. what do you make of the way this is being fought out? do you feel it's constructive? how do you feel about it? >> i'll tell you exactly how i feel about it. i think my position represents the democratic wing of the democratic party. barack obama was elected in this country and under his platform was to get health care done and i think we need to get it done. >> michael snider is the owner of the syzzlin skillet restaurant in ralston, nebraska. i don't know if i'll ever get to ralston, nebraska but if i do i'll leave a really large tip when i eat at your restaurant. mr. snyder, thank you very much for being on this show. i really appreciate it. good luck to you sir. >> thank you. >>

senator nelson is a four-time statewide elected official. he was the governor of the state of nebraska. but the senator is on such shaky ground he has to fire back with this ad to straighten it all out. >> you've probably been hearing a lot about health care reform. and like too much stuff that comes out of washington it's hard to know what's fact and what's fiction. so i want you to hear my principles, straight from me. first, any plan must keep spending under control, help our small businesses, improve care, control costs. and most of all, the plan needs to work for nebraska. i'm ben nelson and i approve this message because you can count on me to always put nebraska first, always. >> i can't be any more fair. we played both of those ads. i want to point out four big points in that ad. keep spending under control. everybody onboard with that? help small businesses. sure sounds good. improve care, we all have got to be for that. and control costs. may i point out that in the arena of fairness, senator nelson, president obama addressed all o

they are sending the smoke signals to bring ben nelson in because right now it's solved. >> yeah. and let me try one moral on you, ed. there's no question i can ask that you can't answer. but the other option as being floated here from senator conrad is this idea of health co-ops. i'm wondering if we may come back to take a really close look alt the co-op. it's not been the real serious one on the table. and kent conrad has been the one pushing it, saying, this is working with credit unions and the like and then maybe this could work with health care. but it's never really been tried with something you have this scope because dealing with credit unions is one thing. one-sixth of the health care system is a whole other matter. you're right. people may look at it and say, that's not work blg.

one of those democrats under attack is nebraska senator ben nelson. organizations have launched an ad against the senator which listed his home number urging viewers to call nelson to complain about what they call his efforts to slow down the push for healthcare reform legislation. the only problem is the number listed is the district office for louisiana democratic senator mary landrieu. a landrieu spokesman says, quote, i find their attack ad on ben nelson to be pretty ineffective. their strategy of encouraging nebraskaians to call ben nelson at senator landrieu's office is ill-conceived, at best." getting back to cash for clunkers, we have brought you glowing reviews of this program, but some people are taking major hits because of it. correspondent adam housley explains from suburban los angeles. >> it's pretty bleak, pretty bleak. >> right way charity services in sun valley, california turns thousands of donated cars into money for local food banks, homeless shelters an boys and girls clubs. they say the recession has put a dent in donations. the

>> i want to hear about you talking to senator nelson. because, as you know, the white house has been pretty angry about these ads. president obama says it's counterproductive, yet, your allies are not stopping. >> there were a lot of people who are were upset about the incredible reefs that the insurance company has. this bill, the cbo scores at $60 billion a year on the house side. i think putting $60 billion a ar in the health insurance industry is insane. i really do. so you want a public option. what the president wants to do is very straightforward, rough 60, 50 or 60 million americans have what newt has called socialized medicine. or government-run health care. over 65. medicare. that's what medicare is. now, what obama is essentially saying is, let's give the choice of getting in a system like that, or staying with what they have, to the american people. so if you're voting against having a public option which is you're voting against what 72% of americans in two polls want which is the choice, most of them are not going to sign u

we learned that we lost 247 nelson jobs in july, some 200,000 fewer jobs than we lost in june, and far fewer than the nearly 700,000 a month we were losing at the beginning of the year. of course, this is little comfort to anyone who saw their jobs disappear in july, and to the millions of americans who are looking for work. i will not rest until anyone who is looking for work can find a job. still, this month's job numbers are a sign that we have begun to put the brakes on this recession and that the worst may be behind us, but we must do more than rescue our economy from this immediate crisis. we must rebuild it stronger than before. we must lay a new foundation for future growth and prosperity, and a key pillar of the new foundation is health insurance reform. reform that we are now closer to achieving it than ever before. there are still details to be hammered out. there are still differences to be reconciled, but we are moving toward a broad consensus on reform. four committees in congress have produced legislation, and unprecedented level of agreement on a difficult and complex c
