paul. david walker don't the american people have a right to know where the money is coming from that's funding the political debates in this country what the law already says says that's required if the money's given for an ad that advocates the election or defeat of a candidate. that's supposed to be disclosed now if the money is just coming out of a group's general budget and it doesn't need to be disclosed that's what the law is but you know that's a very very liberal interpretation of the actually a number of groups legal league of conservation voters and some other groups for many years before the citizens united decision were known as c.f.l. qualified non-profits and they were allowed to run ads urging people to vote for or against candidates and they did not disclose their donors nor were they even wired to that is that is not what the iris what the law says the section five hundred one c four of the tax code says not that the their primary purpose is to be political and these groups are now claiming forty nine percent of what we do is political fifty one percent is not it actually says

give usa sense, governor scott walker, rand paul delivering different visions for the gop. -- what other competing visions to try to bring about this gop comeback. >> scott walker has really become something of a hero among conservatives and in the conservative base. remember, he survived that recall vote after his controversial measures on collective bargaining rights and union rights. rand paul, on the other hand, comes from a very different point of view, obviously, with his libertarian views. you have two folks really going in there and saying, rand paul saying we need to widen the tent, include more people. you have scott walker saying the problem is what democrats are trying to push is dependence on government. we as conservatives have a different message. more of a traditional, similar to the notes we heard in 2012 from scott walker. >> another name less focused on 2016 than an election sooner than that, which is anthony weiner in the city of new york. yesterday was day one of his sort of mayoral comeback as it were. i want to play a sound bite. this is his first inte

advocates for free market principles, you come up with names like marco rubio, mike lee, rand paul, pat toomey, scott walker. you have to go back to world war ii to see such a transformation of the people leading the fight, leading the argument for conservative principles being an entirely new generation of leaders. >> so who is not mentioned there? john mccain who called him a whack-a-doodle after he went after chuck hagel. >> a little revenge there. >> a lot of revenge and also associated himself with marco rubio. after all the stories that see them as rivals. especially over immigration reform. >> and that's last night was not the end of the rivalry. we will see them on the same side and we will see them at some points i believe at odds. and we will also see them, i think almost inevitably elbowing each other for power and the stage. but they're both going to be elbowing aside the other generation that he didn't mention. >> it's interesting to see ted cruz, someone who has charted his own course, a lot of support back home. but not trying to make friends and influence people on capitol hill. we saw what

effective advocate for free market principles, you come up with marco rubio, mike lee, rand paul, scott toomey, scott walkerto get them excited about who's on the mench and who's coming up. where does cruz fall in all of this and is he a logical person being over on the senate side that could take on the mantle of michele bachmann? >> what's fascinating is what you had in the beginning is the tea party being brought into the republican party through the house of representatives. now all those tea party congressmen are gall. michele bachmann is leaving, alan west. what you've had is this tea partyism in the party migrating over to the adult wing, to the senate. so now you do have rand paul, ted cruz, marco rubio. so now the senate side, which was supposed to be the place that was more adult conversation is now also a bastion of tea partyism. ted cruz is perfect for the tea party in a couple of ways. he's a very articulate spokesman. he may say things that we think are extreme but not embarrassing and crazy like michele bachmann, but he also has that hispanic piece as welch is something that demographically t

rick perry, ted cruz, john bolton, seriously, rick santorum, paul ryan, sarah palin, scott walker. this could be the lineup for the closing night of cpacc. sarah palin showed up with pretty much the same information she had in her cpac speech. >> the mayor trying to -- last time i saw my friend at the nra convention i was on stage doing a speech using a visual image to make a point about the big gulp ban. i took a sip of a big gulp. now i see that the mayor of new york now wants to ban public displays of legal tobacco product. can you i -- sorry. i tell ya. don't make me do it. >> and that is a pretty hilarious performance trick. of coarse the last time she saw her friends at nra conference was cpac this year. just another stop on the right wing road show. it is clear that this is not some broad nonpartisan second amendment movement. this is a far right fringe movement full of exactly the kind of nongun related pet causes would you expect to hear from any other far right fringe movement. >> most of all, thank you to so many people o there who helped us out in the recall election la

. >> you come up with names like marco rubio, mike lee, rand paul, pat toomey, like scott walker. and here's what gives me so much optimism. if you look at this generation, i refer to this new generation of leaders as the children of reagan. >> the children of reagan? those guys make him look like a hollywood liberal. the president has remained focused on jobs, on fairness, on equal rights. he's winning and feeling confident. >> we've got a great chance of taking back the house and i'm going to be working tirelessly wherever i get the opportunity to make the case to the american people that our ideas are the right ones for growing the middle class. >> joining me now are krystal ball and dana milbank. thank you both for your time. >> thanks for having us, rev. >> krystal, the president is bringing it. i mean, what's his strategy here? >> well, i think you spoke very well to the strategy. i mean, unfortunately, we are at a place where there is a very limited amount that we can actually get done in terms of focusing on a recovery, on our economy, building a long-term sustainable econ

you come up with names like marco rubio, like mike lee, like rand paul, like pat toomey, like scott walker. here's what gives me so much optimism. if you look at this generation, i refer to this new generation of leaders as the children of reagan. because we learned watching him. >> well, it's doubtful reagan could have governed with me of these lawmakers he identifies with. the new republican generations have been different i think. wayne slater is political senior writer for "the dallas morning news," and joan walsh is msnbc political analyst and editor at large for "salon." thank you both for joining us. a couple things i want to get in to here. what is this 47%? i think we both know during the campaign last year, that was the killer for romney. it wasn't just that he talked about it. >> we are seeing a new generation of leaders step forward. >> the national narrative of the last election was the 47% of americans who were not currently paying income taxes, who are in some ways dependent on government, we don't have to worry about you. that's what was communicated in the last election. i

paul. like pat toomey, like scott walker. you have to go back to world war ii to see such a transformation of the people leading the fight, leading the argument for conservative principles, being an entirely new generation of leaders, stepping forward. >> a generation of republican firebrands may be the loudest voices in the room. but lately their screaming has had little to do with actual governance, at present the gop's winning formula seems to be complain about the other side not doing anything and then do nothing yourself. nowhere is the strategy more prominent than in congressional budgets negotiations. for four years the republicans kplamed that president obama and the democrats have ignored regular order. the way bills are passed, in which both chambers vote on their bungts adgets and reach a compromise. it's the republicans who are ignoring regular order. for the past two months, republicans have been blocking a meeting between house and senate negotiators unless they can get a commitment that the budget talks will no

you come up with names like marco rubio, like mike lee, like rand paul, like pat toomey, like scott walkerot necessarily, robert, the people who are winning over middle america right now. as we mentioned, he's not a fan of marco rubio's signature piece of legislation on immigration. earlier this week peter king said he would skip last night's dinner because of that superstorm sandy no vote. and now chet connelly, the chairman of the south carolina republican party says, well, conservatives think he's a rock star. when you look at those disconnects from other members of the republican party, is that basically a microcosm of the divide in the gop? >> yes, there's no question about it, that the republican party has a very diverse set of ideas and opinions about where the party should go moving forward. do we stick with the inflexible, intolerable party of the 1950s or do we move forward to a dynamic, very inclusive party for the 21st century. what's interesting about what senator cruz said last night in reference to the future of the republican party, say whatever you want about the politics

if it was today, you'd have rand paul, santorum, and you would have scott walker.f them fit the bill of somebody who will resonate all across the state and do well and all of a sudden you're off to the races. i think a lot of these other people you mentioned are going to have trouble playing in iowa. >> let me go back to you on that, david. from the other point of view, progressive point of view. i don't think anybody going to beat hillary in the current environment, the economy. nobody is going to beat hillary i don't think. she's not going to have to take the heat for the economy, where she can benefit from the clinton economy from the '90s. she's got a lot of horses going for her politically. if they're going to put together a candidate who will get at least 45%, 47% of the vote and not get blown away, scott walker is the kind of candidate who can do it or rubio. >> two words about scott walker. rick perry. or sarah palin. these are both gocvernors toute as the wonderful candidates once upon time. until you get out there and start mixing it up, there's no way of
