caller: i would say marco rubio. before i make my point, i want to i wantst -- when it to say about stewart, keep in mind, there are canadians and actors and remember a year two ago and there was a writer's strike and unlike rush limbaugh and others to speak from the heart and hours on end without a teleprompter, stewart and colbert went off the air, could not function about their riders to make them look weak and the cutting edge. they were on it reruns' for half of year. there is unfortunate -- that is important to understand. i am amazed democrats, especially black people, don't see what is going on of the lord. the only black guy -- bible black eye in -- biblemeek, and a hispanic, marco rubio, and the arctic and the side of charlie crist today are terrified of marco rubio because he is a charismatic hispanic food is not believe an amnesty. i think the person at least impresses me in this campaign season is obama. whenever he is off the teleprompter, he is like a man of the medication. his radical side comes out a

balance del poder en el congreso en los estados unidos, en estos momentos podemos decir que marco rubiotá proyectando como el ganador en el estado de la florida con el 26% de los recinto reportados sin embargo, su ventaja es tal del 51% que podremos decir que marco rubio será el próximo senador federal por el estado de la florida. muy bien, efectivamente, acabamos de hablar con marco rubio y la gráfica anterior sobre el balance del poder en los estados unidos, como ustedes saben en estos momentos, hay en juego 37 puestas del senado, lo que tenemos hasta el momento, es que en este nuevo balance, es decir, con los puestos que se están disputando, tendríamos 14 para los republicanos, uno para los demócratas y hasta el momento ninguno independiente. hasta ahora las expectativa se concentran en arkansas el único estado que cierra sus urnas en el gran bloque de estados en dónde terminara la votación a las 9 y para hablarnos del voto hispano. pasamos directamente con martín y la pantalla virtual. >> gracias, dentro de minutos, cierran los centros de votación en un estado de aro cansarkansa dón

marco rubio a powerful guy in the tea party. the middle or the moderates and republican party need to go left for it to be successful? >> you have to find common ground to be successful. this is a business where majority is important. unless common ground can be found, it can be difficult going forward. those with a moderate view such as i, i believe in reducing spending, but not getting involved in the social issues, or to go to the right for future races in the white house, i think it's important that the common ground has to be found or it will be difficult to achieve. >> talk about it as if it was land space. if people are over here and others are here, there is a middle. these can come here, or these can come here or they meet in the middle. do you think the tea partiers come in and the moderates go right? is that how it gets better? >> i think you are right. that's exactly the case. what has to happen as a natural consequence of political gravity, if you will, if they are going to be successful going forward, there has to

. >> rubio say.hat's the message from these conservative activists that tea party activists to the leadership here in washington? >> i think the message is that republicans are actually on probation. i think it's very clear that the republican party -- that voters didn't vote for the republican party. they voted against the obama agenda. and i'm actually glad to hear john boehner sort of acknowledge that. i think it was very wise and, hopefully, he'll govern that way. but look, i think that some of the really bright spots out there are people like marco rubio and i've said it before but i think ma marco rubio's the perfect candidate in the sense he's a bona fide conservative but he was also the speaker are of the florida house and i think someone like him and pat toomey have a chance to sort of bridge the gap between the tea party and the establishment. hopefully, they won't be co-opted but i think someone like rubio is a classic example of the possibilities here and i think maybe i don't want to, yo

rubio would have been meek. -- rubio would have beaten meet. marco rubio won the three-race. >> could evening. it is a joy to be here. my office is here. -- good evening. i am so proud of florida and so proud of our state for recognizing principles and leaders that they are supporting all across the state. marco rubio. thank you, florida. i'm so proud of marco. when you are down 35 points, it is easy to get discouraged. it is easy. a lot of us have tough times. he showed a dogged determination to making a great senator. i am so proud of his enthusiasm and his eloquence and that he will be part of the next generation of leaders that will restore america. marco rubio is the right man at the right time. this is a great night for our state. it is a great night for florida. [cheers] i will try -- my wife told me not to cry. "don't cry." but marco rubio makes me cry for joy. [cheers] this is a great country and we need great leaders to inspire us so that we can be better and strive in our own families and communities to make life better for ourselves

marco rubio. we are proud of leadership. we believe the principles we stand for on issues of small business, entrepreneurship. trade, trade has become a partisan issue. it's a same we cannot gone through with the columbia and panama free trade. it leads verbal support. the base of the republican party is anti-trade. we think we have a message for hispanics. that the principles that they hold dear are the conservative principles that lead them to support conservative expandidates. one of the problems we're going to have at this gathering will be immediate message forum. what is it? what's wrong with our message? why aren't we getting out? we have the leadership, we believe we have the principles. the this gathering will be an opportunity to listen and reach out to that hispanic community, which is important. if you want to be a majority party, we believe we are a majority party. we have to work hard and reach out to the hispanic community. senator, on the question of hispanic vote. surged in a couple states. nevada, californi

most people thought that marco rubio was just crazy. the crist numbers were terrific. a huge expensive state with many expensive media markets. he kind of caught fire. we should have seen it then. i think some of us wondered was this an aberration. it's starting to show other places. >> ifill: i was in kentucky a very few weeks ago and that was when just before jack conway began to throw everything he had at rand paul and it didn't quite stick. rand paul the next senator from kentucky is going to join mitch mcconnell. you didn't hear anything sounding very senatorial in terms of i'm part of the club now from that speech. >> he said it didn't quite stick what jack conway tried to throw his way. it backfired in his face. there was allegations of his youthful... you know, jack conway accused rand paul of being associated with an anti-christian group back in his college. they put an ad on about a female co-ed and what they did in college. the kentucky voters wanted no part of that. it felt too long ago for them really not germane to this race. that add for democrat jack co

three female governors, a cuban american, marco rubio. i think john casek is more old wine in a new tea kettle. governor of ohio. i think these are people who are going to shake the party for the future. >> the big winner was the tea party movement. it is actually mainstream america. >> the ones she endorsed and the ones that made it? >> some tea party candidates did lose, but a good number of them did win. marco rubio, in big senate races. some of them did lose. but remember that the republican party's comeback is due in large part to the tea party movement because they reenergized the conservative base. and i would also say this, that the tea party movement now is going to have a huge impact on the republicans coming into the congress. and what happened is the direct result of the tea party strength was that the republicans were able to reverse the map of 2006 and 2008, reverse all of the democratic gains in the south, the midwest, and the mountain west, which is going to make 2012 much more difficult. >> you mean the tea party has to c

hopefully will will get marco rubio. there is a role to be played an advocacy, no question about that. what their role -- what that role is is a balding. clearly gulf left lead with that in the 2008 and 2006 cycles. the conservatives have a level the playing field in 2010. clearly there will be a role for third-party groups that will be able to provide advocacy on behalf of conservative principles and individual policy makers to support those principles. >> cannot follow-up asking how you would respond to those that say that the notion of anonymous donors is somehow pernicious and has an affect on elections and on democracy? your group did collect donations from individuals without releasing the names of the donors. how you respond to those critics? >> by law we cannot spend -- we do not spend bop -- dollar for dollar. if you want to spend dollar for dollar, then you engage in support of 527 where everything is fully disclosed. as the 50% of the work that we do is an advocacy. our group will have substantially less than

marco rubio makes me cry for joy. this is a great country and we need great leaders that inspire us so that we can be better, do better, and tried in our own families and communities to make life better for ourselves and not to rely on an oppressive government to be the solution to our problems. we need principled, centered leaders to inspire us to solve our problems. that is in our dna as americans. i am so proud that marco rubio will be our next united states senator. without further ado, i give you our new leader, marco rubio.

rubio is 39 years old, the father of four, and the first major candidate that the tea party embraced. he ran against the establishment here in florida. but he's not an extremist. he's managing to stay away from any silliness or craziness that might place him in the fringes of the gop. he's married to a former miami dolphins cheerleader who happens to be colombian. for the republicans, who have had trouble courting the hispanic vote, diane, rubio would be a tremendous asset. in fact, there's already talk that he's on the short list as a republican candidate for vice president in 2012. diane. >> right, john, thanks so much. and 14% of florida voters are hispanic. want to head out to washington state now, all the way on the other side of the country, sharyn alfonsi is there, sharyn. >> reporter: well, diane, there is driving rain and wind here tonight, but it isn't expected to affect voter turnout tomorrow because most voters actually mail in their ballots. and that means it could be weeks before we know who wins the senate race here. we have incumbent patty murray and her republican cha

and in florida, tonight, marco rubio, big win for him. he is a tea party candidate, as well. the republican defeating charlie crist. and in north carolina tonight, we have word in, as i said, that senator richard burr has won re-election. >> not a surprise here. pat leahy has held his seat, seeking a seventh term in vermont. republicans have picked up two seats so far. they need ten to control the senate. >> that's right. they are hoping that red gauge climbs and climbs and climbs. but we also have exit polling that is telling us a lot about who is turning out and what they're saying when they do. >> absolutely. there's a conservative surge so far this year. voters are as concerned about the company as they were in 2008. but no happier with who is in power right now. 40% of voters have said that they are coming out to oppose president obama. >> all right, let's go to ron claiborne. he's been at the polls with all of you today, and we wanted to know what you had to say in that bell weather state of pennsylvania, about what you're feeling and thinking as you vote. >> reporter:

marco rubio ran without a single ad. it was a stunning example of of the proliferation of information sources and the ability to communicate to large numbers of voters without doing the traditional things that we think move numbers. and it goes to steve's point that you had all these republicans and activists and marco created this national movement really all without running a single tv ad. >> steve, are we an independent problem? >> no, it's important to the internal dynamics of the republican party. >> are we an independent obstacle to bipartisan progress? and if so, a big one or a small one? >> the media -- cable-driven aligned media which is for sure. but i'm not -- i'm not making a judgment about the major -- about the major newspapers and major, you know, network news and cnn. but the cable -- the cable process is -- i don't know if it's an obstacle. it is a fact. it's how people are getting their information and that's how you have to operate. but i wouldn't rule out, you know, the fact that, you know, major stor

you had the republican marco rubio, the democrat and the republican.the republican received, that was the majority. you know, it is what it is. and, you know, we have a u.s. senator who's a bright young fellow, but didn't get a majority of the vote in the sunshine state that has a significant amount of senior citizens. so it seems congressman meek and i split the vote. >> jim morrison has been dead for decades. he was convicted of indecent exposure in florida during a concert. apparently, according to the court's finding, expose poezing himself. even there, the evidence is questionable. there's no real photograph of it and all {that. what makes his case of interest to you to the point you're actually considering it, given that if we're going for posthumous pardons, surely there's more important than jim morrison. ç >> things that come to your desk you deal with. this was brought to my december act number of years ago. the more i looked into the case, the more briefings i got about what happened that evening, the less and more flimsy the evidence appea

rubio has been very specific about what his economic plan is coming to washington.ause he says he's a fiscal conservative, you've probably heard he's a fiscal conservative. what's his actual plan? in addition to the generic republican proposals to add hundreds of billions of dollars to the deficit, he wants to make changes to tax policy on the alternative minimum tax and estate tax. changes that would add an additional $989 billion to the deficit. and while he is proposing that he would like you to say that he is a fiscal conservative. just say it. it's like me insisting to you i am short and pretty. actually, i'm enormous and i'm sort of average looking. i mean, come on. somebody should report, somebody should report so we can decide what it is that republicans are actually proposing. not just what they are saying about what they're proposing. this is not a new situation. republican presidents have always tried to sell themselves. have always tried to sell the whole republican ideology as if it's about somehow cutting down the red ink. getting back into the black.

he did endorse marco rubio of florida. unlike rives sarah palin and jim demint, romney did not jump in early to endorse the anti-establishment candidates such as christine o'donnell or sharron angle. unlike many washington republicans he did not gripe between the tea party candidates won the primaries. instead, he wrote them big checks. >> i want to make sure we're using our energy and all of our breath to get republicans elected tomorrow. >> most believe romney was trying to play it just right for a 2012 run. >> we haven't made our mind up to what the process will be or when we make the final decision. i don't think it's anytime immediately coming down the track. >> if the energy and passion is alive today, spirit going over all of america that says you know what? we'll keep the american dream alive and well. >> bret: our 12 in 2012 series continues tuesday with former alaska governor sarah palin. bill clinton and another hangover? it's not what you think. we explain in the grapevine. guess whose fault it is that republic

if you look at -- you know, there's so much written out about marco rubio.but it's important to listen to what marco says. in his victory night speech, he said, i'm paraphrasing here, it would be a mistake to embrace as the republican party. it is not. it is at best a second chance for the republican party to do the things that we said we were going to do originally. and so, you know, i think that there are leaders like him, i'm bias obviously, there are people like marco who can put a foot in each camp. he has absolute credibility on the tea party side, and he has creditability on the leadership side. he's willing to say, the republican party, we deserved to get thrown out of office. we are not being put back into power because suddenly people are in love with us. >> speaking of that, foot in both camps, a week before the election, i interviewed jeb bush in miami. he sort of struck a similar profile. he said base clay that a, center of my country. they don't like the way that obama is going. they want to change the direction. b, they want people to stop fig

because rubio was so dominate. i think he's thestar of the republican party right now or will be in a very short order. that kind of surprised me. >> larry: arianna, what surprised you? >> i was actually surprised harry reid held on to his seat in nevada. it wasn't just the fact he was running against sharron angle that made it impossible for him to remain in the senate, despite the fact that nevada has one of the highest unemployment and foreclosure rates in the country. it was also the fact that there was a line in the ballot in nevada that was none of the above. so people who did not want to vote for harry reid had the choice of voting for sharron angle or none of the above. so maybe none of the above actually saved harry reid. >> larry: ben, what surprised you? >> i guess what surprised me is that as karl rove has been saying, and i think he knows politics, we now have in this economically depressed rust belt area around the great lakes a solid chain of republican governors. something that would have been thoug

can't say that about rubio. he is the authentic emblem just the way rand paul is of tea party insurgent. >> a three-way race with charlie crist getting 29% of the vote. kendrick meek getting 19% and a story broke late last week that former president clinton at least in discussion to try to get kendrick meek out of the race. >> right. and i think what democrats are a little bit afraid of here is that marco rubio is sort of one of those tea party candidates who's proven himself also an agile politician and he's not prone to saying the types of things where people would feel him out on the fringe. he can come to washington, be a legitimate player. >> we're aggregating the social media at c-span.org live social if you want to join the conversation that way. ben is joining us from kansas. go ahead. >> yes. this is ben ferguson from kansas. i'm of the libertarian candidate for one of the house races here in kansas. and i had a couple of things i wanted to say about rand paul's victory. hopefully your guests might have

i want to follow up on what we've been talking about as far as marco rubio.nce and i talked about it before, in 1995 newt gingrich was courageous on medicare. and we reformed medicare. we extended the life of medicare. we slowed down the rate of increase in spending. i spent the first election talking about nothing but medicare. i brutalized my opponent when he tried to decmagogued it. i said all we have to do is slow down the rate of growth for medicare. that's taking money out of their pockets in realtime, not like 80 years from now like this debt commission says. they all responded. i got like 75% of the vote. i want to ask you, mark halperin, other than marco rubio, is anybody telling the truth? >> retiring senator george lemieux of florida. >> anybody else? >> is it easier when you're retiring? >> can't they figure out that americans are adults and if you tell them the truth like george is doing and like marco is doing, you get rewarded? >> we'll see. up until now, republicans have been attacking the president for cutting medicare. in a of races i think

marco rubio won florida by 19 points. he was one of the only candidates anywhere in the country who said, if you elect me, i'm going to support changing social security. we need to talk about raising the retirement age. we need to talk about means testing for benefits. all of these things that you're never supposed to mention. he talked about those. it was, -- it was in florida of all places. in terms of what the tea party means going forward for the republican party -- i think that if our leadership, the republican leadership, does not do something to give them some of what they want and do it quickly, that anger is only going to intensify and it is going to spill over in the 2012 primary elections. we, as republicans, are going to end up with a nominee who has just absolutely no chance whatsoever of winning. >> just to understand where you're coming from, when you say give them some of what they want, do you mean -- like in the early-moves to organize congress or substantive things down the line? would it be smart for t

interesting because we have been following marco rubio. >> that is why when he comes to washington hetry to keep his head down. he will try to involve the strategy that senator clinton did and senator obama did and that nor al franken followed and that is to not seek the spotlight. they will be able to get that whenever they want it but they want to build relationships with colleagues, do their job. the week after victory night when nor to be rubio had 300 international reporters at his celebration he went to israel to try to get away but the media there followed him and the networks wanted him to do live shots from israel. he said no. that is a sign of him trying to stick to the strategy. >> the point to avoid overexposure probably. in addition to this tactic that you say he shares with obama, there is other commonalities and that is in this article it talks about how he also sort of carries this burden of carrying the hopes of a minority population. >> right and maybe the hopes of a party. he is one of the best faces for republicans out there, the most famous republican to come to w

marco rubio will be florida's newest senator. >> a second chance for republicans to be what they said they were going to be not so long ago. >> reporter: in exit polls, 62% of voters said the economy was the most important issue this election, costing long-term democrats, like wisconsin's russ feingold, their job. but democrats pulled out other tight senate races. >> i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this victory, after the toughest and roughest campaign of my life. >> reporter: meaning capitol hill power will be divided. just as voters say they want more done in washington. and more on the change that's already happening in washington. president obama called john boehner at midnight to congratulate him. they talked about what they're going to do to work together. boehner says he told the president he wants to work on adding jobs and cutting spending. he says that's what the american people expect. rob and vinita? rob and vinita? >> so, votesers were obviously upset with the current policies. what else do we know about voter sentiment? >> reporter: we looked at exit
