. >> scott walker? >> scott walker managed to make a very difficult task of taking on special interests which doesn't sound glamorous. in retrospect he can cast himself as a hero. people like the idea of a brave candidate, a guy who stands up and yet he is not scary. >> could someone emerge with a glamour, charisma and pizzazz? >> it's certainly very early days and most of these candidates are unfamiliar to the public. so there's a lot of opportunity for people's images of political figures to be crafted of time. >> you can walk into a louis vuitton and buy something that adds a little glamour to your life. but as she explains, glamour in politics is rare. all the money in the world can't buy it. >> up next our panel will take up the question of glamour in politics. something they know all about. up the question of glamour in politics. something they know all about. a pm pain reliever that dares to work all the way until... the am. new aleve pm the only one to combine a safe sleep aid plus the 12 hour strength of aleve

but the truth of the matter is ed, this is classic scott walker. walkerhe legislature. he said he was going to stop this thing. now they popped it on a friday morning. on friday afternoon scott walker said he was going to sign it. two days into this week today they have the hearing on it. tonight they're going to have the committee vote. tomorrow they're going to have a state senate vote. they're rushing this thing through not because it is popular in wisconsin, but because they are giving scott walker an issue to use in his presidential race. >> this bill is written right out of the alec playbook. >> it's deception, ed. after what john said he said it wasn't good right then because he was running for re-election, but again he deceived the people. to drop down wages, we understand when unions are strong wages are up not just for union workers, but for all workers. it is never to right thing to mess with people's wages and their livelihoods and to have folks out in the dead of winter to say this is wrong. >> it is wrong. bob, he's winning the battle what y

scott walker. he says he did not note president obama was a christian. if you are keeping score at home, scott walkertill does not know whether president obama loves his country or evolution is real. walker is not backing down and his fans on social media are cheering him on. is scott walker an offense now? >> it is a tale of two cities. on the right wing world, he is on offense and is trying to raise money. in the other part of the world, the mainstream world, he is still in the barrel. he is trying to get out. >> republicans, i have yet to find a single republican who has worked for a winning presidential campaign who said to me what scott walker is doing to me is brilliant? no other republican is doing what he is doing. you can bash the media. you can take the high road and say voters do not care about this, but the way he has handled it has caused him problems with some elite republicans. the press is saying it, too. >> the fundamental thing about scott walker in the invisible primary is among elite republicans and donors is is this guy up to it as a political performer? candy handle the big time

writing him off. >> while scott walker is here he didn't handle that question well, but the truth is, among new york donors who don't want jeb bush, they have an open ear for scott walkerbecause they don't want chris christie. that is why scott walker is getting a hearing this week. >> it previously was the case for people that we talked to that christie would be the #2 contender to bush. the one upside for christie is he is going to have to fight for it now in a way that's not going to be like a chair fund-raising. he is going to have to fight for the nomination, potentially underfunded. he is going to have to use his political skills which, the people writing him off or they are formidable. >> his selling points are going away. you look at the polling going on around him the associations that people have with them. you know as well as i do, that but there's look at those numbers. -- bundlers look at those numbers. >> he is going to be the nominee right now. . >> james wants you to move on. >> speaking of cold hard cash, i read the news today about the clinton foundation taking donation from foreign countries including the united emirates, saudi arabia and iman. why a

off. >> while scott walker is here he didn't handle it well, but the truth is, among new york donors who don't want jeb bush, they have an open ear for his -- an open ear for scott walker. because they don't want chris christie. that is why scott walker is getting a hearing this week. >> i think the one upside for christie is he is going to have to fight for it now in a way that's not going to be like in -- like a chair fund-raising. he is going to have to use his political skills which, the people writing him off or get are from edible. >> they are from edible. -- forget our formidable. >> they are formidable. there is all this polling now and you know as well as i do that bundler's look at numbers. >> he is going to be the nominee right now. >> james wants you to move on. >> speaking of cold hard cash, i read the news today about the clinton foundation taking foreign cash from the united arab emirates and other overseas money. why are they taking this? >> i would like to say to words to you. "lincoln bedroom." the clintons have always had a fondness for money and for campaign money, for philanthropic money. they desire to be well-funded. in a campaign context, that o

scott walker just say that? >> that's the truth. and scott walkerwith me. >> zing gwen. >> can scott walker scale up his wisconsin operation nationally? what is his national policy portfolio? all that remains to be seen. there's an enormous amount of goodwill and interest in scott walker among the grass roots. >> and lz look at one take on walker's message. the atlantic saying, he's a retro candidate. walker concedes nothing to the conventional wisdom about what the gop must do to compete in a more culturally tolerant, ethnically diverse and economically insecure america. and the gop faithful love it. >> well if you remember after 2012 one of the first things some republicans were saying the reason why we lost is because we were not conservative enough. that mitt romney was too much in the middle. they almost said the same thing about senator mccain as well. so walker, while it's true to needs to be bigger. they want someone who reminds them of the good old days, whatever that is. scott walker has that energy, that aura about him. >> does that work?

when you look at this field and surprising surge of scott walker walker.n iowa. the key i'm told to his early popularity. he leads right now in notion he is appealing to the tea party movement as well as i guess for lack of a better word, mainstream republicans what do you make of the race in early going. >> clearly, it will be a very large field and a lot of high quality candidates, with records of achievement, there is no freuh frontrunner and -- there is no true frontrunner, it is going to be a language race, i don't think that one candidate has announced. neil: but we never let that get in the way. >> the liberal media wants this race to start two years ago. it is like this is a big story. scott walker is an attractive governor a social conservative, a religious conservative, the child of preacher, his father. a neighbors state and so, it is not surpriseing to me he would do well in iowa. he will do well in a lot of places but so are a bunch of other. neil: you don't think that the college thing would hurt him that he never finished college. >> well, b

scott bñ walker?vixnç >> reporter: i think it could bode well for scott walker. rand paul tend to but scott walker certainly not as well-known as either one of them. but when you look at the results of the quinnipiac poll i cited earlier in iowa, that's an indication that he is starting to get out of the state of wisconsin and he was brought to national attention because of all the fights that he had, the recall election, having to run for office three times in five years, it certainly gets you on the national stage.-xy[ so sfg little better known. it will be interesting to see what happens in terms of the budget battle in in this new right to work legislation that's going through in wisconsin how that mighthyt4j4(p&c@ affect some younger union members. but at the very least scott walker couldrñ >> you mentioned the age group and it would be aazqñ contrast if you have a younger republican with an older democrat. hillary clinton will be 69 in 2016 if she runs. that is, though younger than%2uh ronaldaa#éç reagan was when he first attained]eg7ñ office. but talk az[q

what's going on here specifically let's talk about scott walker. scott walker of course is considered a threat. he's a threat to jeb bush though, right? and right now the dominant media is they do a little bit of criticism of jeb bush, shannon, but for the most part they're quick hits. they're not kill shots. they're trying to go after walker, and before that chris christie with kind of the you know, the dead-man blows here. they're not messing around. look, both of them have to understand what's happening, boast christie and walker have to realize when they're asked ridiculously stupid questions like the one mark thinks is a real litmus test, they should say, look i know what you're doing. i know what the media always does. you want to make conservatives out to look like their anti-science or they're trog la diets. it's obvious it's a pattern and it's a disservice to the press and american people. what's really on the mind of american people, whether obama's a muslim or the fact they haven't gotten a wage hike in 13 years? i put it right back in the media's fa

of the road president who knows what they're doing and that description does not fit scott walker. >> if scott walkeras won three out of four elections in wisconsin, why would we believe that state is going to go blue in 2016? how heavy a lift is that going to be for any democratic? >> they look at him as this blue state governor who has been able to win, but he has these right wing politics. wisconsin has repeatedly -- we are electing tammy baldwin as senator. we have always been a politically divided state. i think as howard dean points out what walker speaks so is this for dangerous and so far successful successful successful policy. reducing health care, even if it costs us more to give people less health care. taking it to teachers because they have benefits that some private sector employees don't have. it has appealed to some people's resentment and bitterness. it is a dangerous formula for the country. >> he has not had to run in a presidential year. he's a very polarizing guy. people either really like him ordis december -- despise him. >>> tonight, the impact on the environment and the heal

scott walker. john: right now, scott walker the poll puts him ahead. has 17 points between him and jim ocean iowa. that will be at rate -- a place where scott walker needs to win. you also see in this poll that jeb bush way worse numbers than anyone else in the republican field. 41% unfave and a lot of republicans will not vote for him. he is the front runner but scott walker is coming out strong. mark: he needs as the front runner to play in all of them. as he stretched himself too thin trying to beat walker and others in iowa, trying to be crisp in new hampshire, he will have to have a place to win. you have to win an early stage and you have to compete everywhere. john: rand paul did better with moderate republicans. hillary clinton broke a long silence with a paid speech and i do mean paid. unless you think 300 k is chump change. she was talking about women and technology. she did kind of wink at us. >> my friend madeline all right famously said there is a special spot in hell for women who do not help other women. so, -- what you do does not have

what's going on here specifically let's talk about scott walker. scott walker of course is considered a threat. he's a threat to jeb bush though, right? and right now the dominant media is they do a little bit of criticism of jeb bush, shannon, but for the most part they're quick hits. they're not kill shots. they're trying to go after walker, and before that chris christie with kind of the you know, the dead-man blows here. they're not messing around. look, both of them have to understand what's happening, boast christie and walker have to realize when they're asked ridiculously stupid questions like the one mark thinks is a real litmus test, they should say, look i know what you're doing. i know what the media always does. you want to make conservatives out to look like their anti-science or they're trog la diets. it's obvious it's a pattern and it's a disservice to the press and american people. what's really on the mind of american people, whether obama's a muslim or the fact they haven't gotten a wage hike in 13 years? i put it right back in the media's fa

anything. >> scott walker with a little strut going on. >>> finally the 2016 republican stage is crowded. we've got a front-runner potentially cant moving into the spotlight is scott walkery started after hi appearance at the iowa freedom summit. "the washington post" reports his fiery speech got people talking. mentions of scott walker on facebook they surged in the days following the speech. in terms of facebook buzz he's beating out tom contender jeb bush. >>> meanwhile rush limb bulk is leading the bandwagon. "the national journal" reports that limbaugh mentioned scott walker more than 200 times in the days following at the summit. while his speeches are inspiring, he's lacking in answers when he faces the press. while on a trade mission in london, the wisconsin governor spoke to a british think tank. he wasn't very forthcoming. >> are you comfortable with the idea of evolution? do you believe in it? do you accept it? >> for me i'm going to punt on that one as well. >> no. really? >> that's a question that a politician shouldn't be involved with one way or the other. >> in britain, any politician could laugh and say, of course evolution is true. >> it's here where i'

>> gmo. >> plus the dark horse everyone is talking about for 2016. >> scott walker. >> scott walker wowedesident would be the first president in many generations who did not have a college degree. >> i'm going to

scott walker is so good at doing. these are the same union thugs that threatened to gut scott walker's wife like a deer and now they're attacking his elderly parents. he has been public enemy number one since his union reform bill. not only did he save tack pairs $3 billion but scott walker has been reelected three times in the past four years. >> why don't you just close down the university and what's all this talk about attacking and gutting -- they had a demonstration. you guys are so pro -- >> hang on juan. >> eric, can you imagine if a ceo did this, went and protested outside a worker's parents' house, grandparents' house? the unions are like the a till las of today, dealing in brute force and not persuasion and a ceo would never do that because they do deal in officer situation, they try to persuade people to act in their interest not physically coerce them. >> you must have missed history lessons about how american business has handled labor and sent thugs to beat up unions. >> i don't think that threatening to gut someone like a deer is peaceful protesting do you? >> what attack? there was no attack no physica

somebody like rand paul, or marco rubio they are little disadvantaged against a guy like scott walker. scott walker somebody who is just as conservative as marco rubio or some of the other guys. then, you bobby jindal who is going far to the right. these governors have an argument to make to say, i am just as conservative as ted cruz. this is what jindal is doing. certainly, bobby jindal's record has been critique and a lot lately. you are an executive. you have made calls. you've actually implemented policies. anybody able to see them play out. that is an age-old argument on behalf of governors. i think it will be a strong one. i don't necessarily think it will win anyone the nomination. it will certainly be a big part of what they tell voters they should be voting on. host: one more call. doug from california. caller: i think this president was elected -- i am caucasian, i think a lot of people thought there would be improvements in race relations. i think he has used race for political advantage. i do not think that is right. that's all i have to say. guest: i look forward very much to the books

calculation here, i wonder what you think it might be because giuliani was at a dinner for scott walker. scott walker said. let's listen to what governor scott walker said on cnbc this northern in response to what rudy giuliani had to say. >> the mayor can speak for himself. i'm not going to comment on what the president thinks. he can speak for himself. i love america. >> do you agree with the comments? what was your reaction when you heard them? >> i'm in new york. i'm used to people saying things -- >> let me ask you again. >> carol lee, i live in new york. i don't hear people saying that every day. but what would be the calculation for scott walker in not running away from those comments and seeming to want to do i'm not a scientist with them? >> it's all about 2016. as dana said this is the kind of rhetoric that we've heard for a long time about this president and now it's ramping back up as these folks try to appeal to a certain part of the republican base. that's clearly why you saw governor walker not walk back or distance himself and just to the extent of disagreeing with mayor giuliani. you

problems surrounding the comments from the mayor have been heaped on governor scott walker. >> the criticism is governor scott walker. here. >> unbelievable. i have to say i think it's legitimate to ask scott walker what you think of mayor giuliani's comments. to ask him if the president is a christian. >> completely out of left field. here is scott walker's answer when asked do you believe president obama loves america? >> then he was asked if plaum was a christian. he was asked this i've never talked about it or haven't read about it. i have never asked him that. to me this is a classic example of why people hate washington and dislike the press. the things they care about don't come close to what you're asking about. >> of course. and he spoke eloquently there. >> i think if you're running for president you should have to answer all kinds of questions. i've posted mean questions to candidates. why not make them relevant like what do you think of net neutrality. there's a lot going on in the world you can ask about. >> right. so many meaningful topics. >> absolutely. to dumb. talk about hypocrisy. al sharpton deci

people in this room like scott walker. scott walker's-- or his non-response and he is as are a lot of people here turning this into sort of an anti-press issue. i just had a meeting with a couple of scott walker's top aides and they believe and i believe they have some reason to believe this, that walker is a candidate, new on the scene, doesn't look like been there, done that somebody who is a proven governor has won re-election, won a recall vote shows he's got a spine, and they believe he can unify the republican coalition because he's talking about economic reform pension reform collective bargaining. they are with him on that. and you know they also think that he can unite social conservatives around him so when he comes to play on this stage in a little bit, i guarantee you he will be real popular here, and all of the other candidates and i have to say that this is a very good interesting, large field of republican candidates i think all of them are taking scott walker very very seriously. one of rudy giuliani's people said to me t

scott walker. he made these remarks in the presence of governor scott walker. think, in the polls. he could wind up being president. he needs to be clear, listen does -- do i think people who say this kind of stuff in my presence are saying the right things setting the right tone? scott walker i don't think has said enough. the other thing i want to say is republicans should not apologize apologize. muslims feel the same way. they shouldn't have to apologize for the fringe groups do. lts have one standard for everyone. i want to say one more thing. >> very quickly. >> when rudy giuliani says that because obama has a white mom, nothing he says about obama can be racially offensive, that sits poorly in the mouth. a quarter of all the slaves had a white mother or -- a white parent or grandparent. they were still racially oppressed. he is playing fast and loose with some of these very sensitive racial topics. he is should back down. >> more on this in the next hour. don't go too far away. >>> a major offensive meant to strike at the heart of isis' stronghold in iraq

scott walker was the flavor. why didn't he say something? why didn't scott walker say something? everybody's loving scott walker. he's the new version of the old. >> that's right. >> he's the new establishment. here's what he said. you should ask the president what he thinks about america. he added, "i never asked him, so i don't know." what a high school answer. "i never asked him." >> his team realized it right away and called the reporter right away and said he wasn't questioning -- >> she had to clean up -- >> no, no. >> i think what he meant to say -- >> let's face it. you know this. these guys who we've been talking about are starting to run for president. they're starting to do their public campaigns and it's going to be growing up time and they're going to make mistakes and by the way, hillary clinton is making a few herself. >> you're flying all over the room here. let me just tell you something. >> it goes both ways. >> somebody once told me, a friend of mine, he's a senator now, he said the galloping horse of history rides by. you better get in that saddle. that horse i

. >> let me just make one last point before we go i just want to say this, scott walker came in, we didn't mention scott walker during this segment. i think scott walker is doing well. at cpac i was taking aback because he took on unions in wisconsin he can take on isis. i was like slow down. >> i agree. he needs messaging help. walker needs a messaging team to help him. >> that's why this process is important because you have to get out there. not everybody needs to be glued like face planted on the teleprompter. can you hold your own in the build of debate or let candy crowley back you into a corner? >> exactly. >> there is no doubt about that. it's better that he stumble a little bit now than later. >> let the republicans fight it out. ufc cage fight style. we want a winner. >> let us leave it. was that a stumble? >> anytime you bring isis into it. >> put an ace bandage on it. >>> when we come back more with the man who conducted that interview with jeb bush at cpac today. sean hannity joins us next. i've always loved exploring and looking for something better. that's the way i look at life. especially now

scott walker. rudy giuliani made these comments at a scott walker fund-raiser. ed what he thought about them. this is what he said. >> the mayor can speak for himself. i'm not going comment on what the president thinks or not. he can speak for himself. i love america and there are plenty of people democrat republican independent, everyone in between who love this country. >> john king is it important what rudy giuliani says at this point and do republican candidates have to answer for him? >> if you're going to come to be with him and break bread and raise money with him, you have to answer. i was talking to a longtime rudy giuliani fan who says that rudy giuliani has gotten into the clown car with donald trump in saying these statements. america admire rudy giuliani after 9/11. when you're in a position of leadership you have to choose your words carefully. i assume this is what rudy giuliani believes and he's entitled to believe whatever he believes because he lives in the united states of america. however, he also knows that he's not like us or he doesn't love

scott walker. because this is a guy who wins without compromising. scott walkerns in four years in a state -- a blue state that has not gone republican for president since ronald reagan. before that he won three elections in milwaukee county, which is the bluest of blue districts in wisconsin. and he did it while governing as an unapologetic conservative. so what he's shown is that you can win the center without moving to the center. and that is what the greatest fear of the democrats are is we put somebody up who can actually win the center without moving to the center and compromise. >> you know marc maybe i missed something. but i didn't recall your sense of indignation and outrage when glenn beck and donald trump and others were attacking president obama and spreading lies and misinformation about his college record and his college grades. it's absolutely wrong to see governor walker attacked for not finishing college. that's not the issue of this presidential campaign. but the bigger issue is the test of presidential character and leadership. i'm more concer

walker and he is in the spotlight. >> i think that's the important context here. there was a big "the washington post" front page investigation on scott walker on supposed questions about scott walker's there weren't actually any questions in the article. then you have the gail collins hit piece in the "new york times" editorial. made claims demonstrative false. you definitely have scott walker getting the full media treatment context matters here. there is no question scott walker could have answered the questions better more artfully. the reaction you got from him in response to this is the reaction you would give or you would give if we were having a conversation about race cars and i raise vegetables. is he here to talk about what he is doing for the national governor's association. what is he doing for wisconsin. >> he has had a couple of them. evolution couple things i'm going to punt for that. >> he is running for office. in the first tier he will have to answer these questions. no doubt about that. >> he did so well on vaccines i was surprised that he kind of whiff the evolution question. look, there are a lot of people in the republican base that don't believe in evolution.

walker suggested in a comment that infuriated university faculty and staff members, that professors could help with savings. scott walker is taking on the elitist professors. the fact that governor scott walkerhimself, does not have a four-year colleague degree. >> howard dean bashed walker for not finishing college, watch this. scott walker, he would be the first president in my generations that did not have a college degree. he never finished. it is not just a question of dancing around the question for political reasons, the question is how real educate second-degree this guy. >> i talked to you about the fact in a you have a lot of very mark zuckerberg, warren buffett, barbara streisand, a lot of people, steve jobs, no colleague degree. >> and for presidents -- >> a little buzz around this mystery around the college degree. there is buzz because people are saying hey, if you're running for president shouldn't you have a college degree? >> i think this is normal, it is news worthy, and it is interesting as an up by the boot straps story too. >> can we go back to scott browne's list? there are those that argument that the president of the united states should have a college degree. what ra

and it shows scott walker scott walker, the wisconsin governor getting a lot of attention he's surge surging. before mitt romney dropped out, he was leading with 21% of the vote. you take mitt romney out of it, scott walker has 16%, huckabee at 10 jeb bush at 9%. the significance of this is for scott walker who a lot of people don't know. this gives him credibility. this allows donors to say this guy is for real. i know it's a year out, but this is a big moment in the invisible primary. >> you know there are too many people in the primary when 15 is the big lead. he's 5 points behind herman cane. for people who do this for a living you know this better than i do i think scott walker has a huge upside for a lot of reasons. >> full disclosure, my firm consulted for scott walker he's a former client but this is an important moment. if his team is able to capitalize on this it's something that could prove to be valuable to them even though we are so far out. i also would say with a note of caution, we are very far out. when you look back on the 2012 cycle, even given the fact that in many
