luckily i have another guest even better than karl rove. please welcome abc news political analyst and chief strategist for george w. bush's 2004 re-election campaign, matthew dowd. matthew, thank you so much. all right. matthew (cheers and applause) matthew, these kids want to know what i stand for, okay. what do pacs usually stand for like americans for prosperity, what do they stand for? >> well, it could be taxes, there's lower taxes. it could be change the laws on health-care reform. it's any number of issues but you have to stick it out. you can't just stick your finger in the wind. >> stephen: where should i stick my finger because if it will help raise money i can think of a few places. >> that may be between you and your significant other. >> stephen: okay. or my significant donor. because like karl rove and americans for prosperity they've got these billionaires who bankroll them, right. >> yeah, well, millionaires and some average people but a lot of rich people. >> stephen: average billionaires so, do those billionaires help set

the fs-start team has eight members and they rove the single adult shelters with a liaison being funded by the city in each one of the shelters and if you are involved in the case management and the shelter moves and the continuity of the case management follows you. it doesn't just drop off the page because you're not at delores street anymore because the team rolls all of our eight shelters that we have in the system. >> are you doing to address each of the recommendations? >> yes. >> if you don't mind, i will continue public comment and i didn't realize you were here today. and just stay put and have -- we'll close public comment after that. >> all right. >> thank you. >> good afternoon, supervisors. and i'm kathy and part of the sanctuary shelter and what i want to do is not just -- what i want to do is put in context some of the complaints to give a visual and there were for the period of january to december 23 complaints at next door. what i found when we did research is five of those complaints and actually we counted 21 and not 23 and five were from the one person and went to se

doubling down on rove's efforts, tim pawlenty, like a buzzard circling over a caucus.ioning whether bachman is even fit for office. >> all the candidates are going to have to demonstrate they can do all of the job all of the time time. >> keep in mind, folks, that comment right there that pawlenty just gave us, that's coming from a guy who took a pass on attacking mitt romney on his health care record in the first debate. well, it looks like he's really getting tough. late this afternoon, bachman's camp released a letter from the attending physician of congress, the doctor stating that bachman manages her migraines with medication and is otherwise healthy. michele bachmann, i do not agree with you on anything. and i can say that my respect for you has gone through the roof in the last 24 hours. you were clear, concise, stood up to it, you weren't bullied by these people. the republican establishment obviously fears this candidate as she is moving up in the polls big time and she's raising money far more than the people who are trying to take her down. and it's just lik

but one of rove's biggest donors isn't buying it. home depot founder told lou dobbs, the richest americans should be making sacrifices. >> we've got to take some pain. >> what kind of pain? >> well, i say this as a devout republican. i think in these negotiations, i think number one guys like me, i've said this before, there's a caveat. i shouldn't get social security. >> okay. >> i should pay more taxes. but all the money generated out of those actions should be entirely devoted to paying down debt. >> joining me tonight is laura flander, host of grit tv on free speech, tv and editor of the book "at the tea party." and in florida we're joined by mack papantonio. >> there's not going to be a deal here because the republican party is owned and operated by corporate america. and corporate america has told mcdonnell and boehner not to budge on issues like $80 billion subsidies for big oil factory farms and weapons peddlers. they've been told don't budge on $100 billion that america lauzs every year on offshore banking that corporations

joining me karl rove.e back. >> thanks for having me. >> sean: you have been contending these candidates need to distinguish themselves and stand out and let's run these ads and see if they are doing the job. here's michelle bachmann. >> as a -- i was born and raised in waterloo, mom of five and foster parent tax lawyer and small business job creator, we can't keep spending money we don't have. that's why i fought against the wasteful bail out, the stimulus, i will not vote to increase the debt sealing. i'm michelle bachmann and -- the debt ceiling. i'm michelle bachmann and i approve this message. >> how do you rate that ad? >> good ad. she says i was in iowa, important to people in iowa she describes who she is. and describes what she believes. i think she does so with a lot of presence. good on camera. i think it is a good introductory ad. i've seen reports that it can be as little as $1,000, $30,000. important in iowa in the early states to say to tell all these insiders watching the campaigns closely

we asked karl rove. nice to see you. >> great to see you. >> greta: in add's "wall street journal", you described the president's press conference a week ago you said it was a b -- buff foe performance. i telecommunication a tough of sarcasm, tell me what you mean? >> i mean ironic. it is not sarcastic, i'm being ironic. the president gave an outstanding theatrical performance. he started off by blaming others. we expected them to blame bush. he also blamed the democratic congress. saying they had runaway with the credit card. they were just doing what he was telling them to do. he insisted that others solve the problem. he said within 24 to 46 hours i demand congress give me a plan. he said the worst alternative to come out of this would be if we raise the debt ceiling without taking any steps to rein in spending or reduce the deficit. the so-called clean debt ceiling vote was what he advocated for months and months he said we ought to raise the debt ceiling without addressing spending or debt questions

on that site too so this is the campaign as it's playing under their grindr up i believe that karl rove groups the response was that you know based on your browsing history this ad could show up anywhere it's done through another network i do sort of like do that with any of them come on you know it's great to their way of thinking and those are always going up yes shows up on an app that is g.p.s. based i love that and also love the idea because the tips are told to hold this right and that's like a very insider e. paper for washington i love the idea that some conservative inside washington guy who obviously browses a lot of concern i was younger i was you know matthew i would like you know some say i'm sorry how do you know public in going to a bathroom and i mean it's very dirty to stand along the lines of conservatives and the community there is a catholic who kind of sounds like the. michael jackson of the catholic world he likes to he's he's described as crazy as homosexuals super culture he likes attractive young men to sit on his lap and then he treats them to trips in the flor

karl rove wrote in the wall street journal, this is karl rove now, saying for example if african-americane of the turnout drops just one point, one point in north carolina, mr. obama's 2008 winning margin there is wiped out. two and a half times over. i mean, there is what karl rove wrote in the wall street journal two or three weeks ago. that if we just drop the black turn out by 1% of what happened in 2008, it flips it two and a half times over. and it changes the outcome of that state. and it changes the electoral map. that's real serious. you don't need a whole lot of fall-off there. >> and they are telegraphing the punch. i mean, karl rove is telling us right now, what the objective is and what they are thinking about. then you see the governors across the country admitting it. list objective was it make obama a one term president. now you see the small tinkerings. what you and i know from 2000, all you have to do is crunch the numbers on the edges and there is a major impact on the next election. >> he didn't think he was telegraphing it in the punch. it was in the wall street journ

the pressure on bachmann is coming from those in her own party, including carl rove, this morning on fox news. >> it's going to be important for her to get her doctors out there quickly to provide the medical records and provide the reassurance that people are going to want to have this is not a serious issue. >> word of bachmann's migraines first surfaced monday in the daily caller which quoted three unnamed sources who claim bachmann frequently suffers medical episodes. political reporter today, bachmann missed eight votes in the house last july while being treated for a migraine. when asked about bachmann's fitness for office, tim pawlenty said this today. >> all of the candidates, i think, are going to have to be able to demonstrate they can do all of the job all of the time. if you're going to be president of the united states, you have to be able to do the job all the time. no time off in the job. >> joining me now, jonathan capehart, contributor for "the washington post." thank you for being here. in that brilliantly-written "west wing" scene that we opened this segment was we

and it doesn't strike me that rove and company are particularly out to protect romney, they just wantchmann out of this race. she's the distraction, she's the one they believe can never be president so let's not pretend she can be the nominee. >> folks like carl rove are the establishment, but also the establishment that want to win, they want to beat president obama. they all know, michele bachmann might be able to win the republican nomination, but could she go toe-to-toe with president obama with all the incumbent advantages he has, could she beat him? not a chance. >> the obama administration is trying to figure out how to say it's perfectly okay to have the occasional headache. you can still be president. they want to do whatever they can to get michele bachmann the nomination. >> they want her there as long as possible. >> john than capehart, thank you so much for joining me tonight. >>> coming up, rupert murdoch's first round against the british government may be over, but he may be facing new questions from this side of the atlantic. senator barbara boxer joins me. if you thin

i believe the karl rove group the response was that you know based on your browsing history this could show up anywhere it's done through another network i do sort of like you do with any that come on you it's great there i think was the only thing that he has shows up on an amp that is g.p.s. taste i love they also love the idea because it's if you're told to hold this right and that's like a very inside repapered for washing touch i love the idea that some conservative inside washington guy who obviously browses a lot of cars are going to go. right. to i would like some absolutely you know public angling to a bathroom because i mean it's very dirty stale long lines conservative community there is a catholic who kind of sounds like the michael jackson of a cap across he likes to he's he's described as crazy as homosexuals super culture he likes attractive young men to sit on his lap and then he treats them to trips in the florida keys only problem is that he is archbishop emeritus of miami. i was going to run solve what it was actually he doesn't anymore i guess you know when you're y

that site too so this is the campaign as it's playing under the grinder out but i believe that karl rove groups the response was that you know based on your browsing history this i could show up anywhere it's done through another network i do sort of like you do that either come i do it's great there i think was the only thing up yes shows up on an app that is g.p.s. based i love that you also love the idea because a tipster told the hill this writing that's like a very insider repapered for washington i love the idea that some conservative inside washington guy who obviously browses a lot of concern to. some there are going to be very public in going to the bathroom i mean it's very dirty state along the lines of the conservative community there is a catholic who kind of sounds like the. michael jackson at the capital what he likes to he's he's described as crazy as homosexuals super culture he likes attractive young men to sit on his lap and then he treats and a trip to the florida keys only problem is that he is archbishop emeritus of miami . and so south florida well actually he does

rove is correct, barack obama's future in the white house is shaky to say the least. the president must know that he must walk away from the far left just as speaker boehner has to put the far right on the shelf. independent americans will decide the next presidential election. not move on, not the tea party. the independents want the debt chaos to stop. in the end, it is mr. obama who has the most to lose if compromise is not reached. unless he wants to move on, from the oval office, he better get a deal done. and that's the memo. now for the top story tonight. purveyor of the legendary web site dick morris.com. you know about it, you love him. dick morris. how much influence does the far left really have? i mean, the rhetoric, the bomb throwers, the cable tv aside. >> when it comes right down to it, how much influence do these people have? >> vast. can't imagine how much influence because barack obama's entire presidency his entire political career maximizing turnout on the left. not just persuading independent voters. obama got the same percentage of the white vote
