it had some wonderful 18th century houses, buildings, it had a marvelous statehouse, it had all of the equipment for a historic renaissance. but it wasn't until the 1950s that historic annapolis inc., now just historic annapolis, was formed. and they were serious about it. and so the town turned itself to preservation, to history as a way of making money and realized that a lot of these places were threatened. the idea would be then to perhaps have a historic district ordnance that would restrict development that was not appropriate. that would make the town keep its kind of charm. i'd like people to come away from this book with a sense that this is a living town. it's been here a long time. there are a lot of interesting things that have happened here. we were at one time actually the capital of the country. and so it's a city with a, on a human scale. not that it doesn't have problems, it certainly does. but it is a city with real possibilities for the future. and i'd like people to come away with an appreciation of that. >> for more information on this and other cities visited by c

one of the most under reported story, how the gop swept the midterms of whaf they did in statehousesa absolute political genius. they put money into the gover r governor's races and able to construct an unbelievable map that makes it hard for them not to lose the house of representatives. it's possible but it makes it very hard. i would say this is the new normal. and a lot of folks and republicans i've spoken to said this was most likely the new normal until something unbelievably catastrophic happens to our party like if we nominated rand paul and he lost 40 states. that's where we are right now for the republican brand in the house of representatives. >> aren't they right now at this moment contemplating doing something that catastrophic that they could lose a virtually unlosable house? >> reporter: the shutdown could hurt them -- >> the debt ceiling fight is even worse. >> reporter: yes, if the debt limit -- if that was not renewed and you had an economic ka tras trow fee at the hands of the house conservative wing, that could in fact perhaps get the democrats in the house. that'

what do you think happens to that rhetoric in republican statehouses when neighboring states are expanding access to health care, young americans are getting access to health care. does this disappear into the night? >> i think so. i think a lot of this -- there is, as you pointed out earlier, a tremendous amount of spending that is emanating from groups in washington that's driving a lot of these efforts into the places that -- the states that you point to. that money is going to dry up at a certain point, largely when the program -- when people are enrolled and the program starts to function smoothly after a lot of these initial hiccups and after the gazillion repeal bills go down in flames. at that point i think it dissipates just the same sort of way that opposition to social security dissipated over time and it becomes a crank -- a more crank position and more fringe position. >> josh, let's talk a little bit about the clinton piece. i think it's interesting that clinton is sort of coming to i won't say the president's rescue, but is doing him a solid as it were. this is also part of

. >> now the aftermath of sandy hook shooting saw some 450 school safety bills introduced in statehouseslude other less controversial measures such as adding door locks or security cameras, but once you let teachers carry guns or designate an armed non-law enforcement officer we have to wonder where do you draw the line. let's bring in my guests, mayor stephanie rawlings blake from the city of baltimore and gregory thomas, the former director of security for new york city schools. thanks to you both. >> sure. >> mayor, i want to start with you. i know you participated in a meeting that president obama held this week with a group of mayors. as a mayor of a large city what do you make of this idea of putting more guns in schools? mean, aren't we trying to keep guns out of schools and away from kids? >> i think the example you showed in the lead-in shows just why it doesn't make good sense to put more guns in schools, and i think it's unfortunate because more -- the most amount of kids that we're losing is not in the schools. it's where the legislators can actually do something. it's on the

if it's really the presidential can gain for a more subsidence matter the republicans have been statehouses and control of the district. >> we talked a long time about the impact of redistricting. there's a debate among scientists and others about all of our problems as a result of redistrict team. some people say yes. i would say only in part. obviously with technology, you can draw these bizarre districts in order to carve out at the edges for one for one party or another. the other reality is we live in america in which people tend to sort themselves out to look more like people. we see evidence of that around us. so that is part of it. your point about the person-to-person campaigning is correct. good campaigns have always wanted to get volunteers out on the street, but with the bush campaign, based on some work done by political scientist at yale, i won't say perfect date, but improved this by recognizing its not just person-to-person disaffected. if i go to your door because you know me. so if you're called by someone you know her through doors knocked by someone you are no come you'r

currently serves in the statehouse and running in the congressional primary with the actual electionother democratic candidates. good luck. the federal reserve announced it would keep pumping cash into the bond market. the decision follows two days of closed door meetings and the nasdaq and s&p 500 are also seeing big gains. the financial crisis triggered the fed and u.s. government to take unprecedented action to stabilize the economy. in 2008, congress passed t.a.r.p., a $700 billion in taxpayer funded relief and one in alphabet soup of stimulus spending. all of a sudden the government had lent and spent and guaranteed an estimated 29 trillion to rescue wall street. help that continues to this day. a front row seat of all of it serving at the treasury department in the clinton and obama administration. five years later she is senior fellow at the aspen institute and founder of the better banking project. susan, big news today, are you surprised by the fed's move? >> i'm actually not surprised. i know the market was expecting them to pull back and that's why we had this big rally th

her husband was a member of louisiana statehouse of representatives in the district where he grew up,and she first ran for judge, replacing her husband's uncle. kimball says her husband's being a politician was instrumental to herself. you get the picture. clearly, this kind of hardball isn't for the faint of heart or the woman who fears what pretty competition in the public -- political competition will always foster, criticism. but soft baas is only played at campaign photo ops. playing hardball is the way to win. so what i want to say here in these three excerpts and really throughout the book is that, um, there are some -- that the tactical approach that women need to adopt is the same as men's. i mean, you have to get more votes than the other guy or the other girl, right? but the messages and the beliefs and -- that you bring to that fight, the belief in women, the belief in the power of women is what is different and important. and thirdly, what is so different and so important is recognizing some of these truths that i just tried to share with you for a minute here about being

if in the statehouse or capital they can get things done.ey wonder if it is worth trying. >> i do not blame people for being frustrated. i do not blame them for being sour on public service. >> when mitt romney was governor, massachusetts lost 40,000 manufacturing jobs. >> obama, failing to stop cheating, failing american workers. >> the mailbox is the most dangerous place in america. does that become a real disincentive for running? of course it does. who would want to put themselves through that kind of life. i will tell you, people who are willing to take its, even though they are unfair, solve america's problems. evil who are willing to put up and endure that kind of behavior , because they know there is a greater goal of achieving. >> the only way that you're going to get people to believe the system works is if you can work on substantive problems. the process issues are interesting, how congress works, issues like the filibuster, issues like reform on the hill, but to make the american people believe that the system is on the level, y

>> it is the statehouse. >> ok. what would likely happen to that dollar amount? >> likely, what would happen is that patient would be treated, stabilized under your act and then sent home after they had been stabilized. the cost of the care could be incorporated under charity care to that particular hospital. it could be facilitated by dish funds or low income pool funds. point, they affordable care act is trying to find a solution to all of those situations in the great state of florida and the great state of california and every state. what the affordable care act is trying to address, that is the overall cost and who will bear that cost at the end of the day. providing a system that is better than the system we have today. i know exactly what happens when that occurs. the person who had the heart attack does not bear the burden of that. the insurance companies in the state of florida or california do not bear the burden. it will be a taxpayer system that will bear that burden and .r a private or public hospital understand,eed to is that the affordable care act

thomas jefferson arrived early at the statehouse. the temperature was 72.5 degrees and the horse flies weren't nearly so bad at that hour. it was a lovely room, very large, with gleaming white walls. the chairs were comfortable. facing the single door were two brass fireplaces, imu they would not be used today. the moment the door was shut, it was always kept locked. the room became an oven p. the tall windows were shut so the quarreling voices could not be heard by passersby. small openings allowed a slight stir of air but also a large number of horse flies. jefferson records that 'the horse flies were dexterous in finding necks and the silk of stockings was nothing to them. all discussion was punk waited by the slap of hands on necks.' on the wall at the back facing the president's desk was a panoply consisting of a drum, swords and banners seized from fort ticonderoga the year before. they were out thissin outshoutig it in the name of the great cojtsal congress. congress got to work taking up an emergency measure about which there

likely scenario, you are the chairman of the -- excuse me, what chairman are you the -- >> it's the statehouse, and it's appropriations. >> okay. so what would likely happen to that dollar amount whether it's $40,000, $90,000, $120,000, whatever? >> likely what would happen is that patient would be treated, would be stabilized under your act and then sent home after they had been stabilized. the cost of the care could be incorporated under charity care for that hospital, it could be facilitated by dish funds or low income pool funds. >> okay. so to my point, ladies and gentlemen, it's -- the affordable care act is trying to find a solution to all of those situations in the great state of florida and the great state of california and every state in the nation. what the affordable care act is trying to address is the overall cost and who will bear that cost at the end of the day in trying to provide a system that actually is better than the system that we have today. because i know exactly what happens when that occurs. the person who actually had the heart attack does not bear the burden of tha
