sam stein, that said, you read the 43-count indictment which i did last night, it is shocking.ust say the behavior especially of his wife, the sense of entitlement, the demands, the requests are absolutely shocking and offensive and embarrassing. but that said, you look at the law and read "the washington post" article this morning and i think the feds are going to have a very difficult time doing anything other than bankrupting bob mcdonnell and his family for the rest of their life. >> i think when this is all settled the real scandal we are going to be discussing is this probably fell within the rule of law and that -- >> virginia law. >> that said, the feds don't have to prove that an exchange for the gifts was granted but that it was promised. so that is very tough to do. you have to show intent and maybe this guy who ran star scientific has some e-mails or letters that show intent but my guess is reading "the post" article today the lawyers will have a tough time -- or the prosecutors will have a tough time finishing up this case. what probably will happen they will nail

sam stein, i think it has to do with the whittling of the party.have left the republican party because of the right wing shift of the gop. and those who have been left behind with no disrespect to mr. gibley are more dedicated to their bibles and religion. >> i think the number of people who identify themselves as republicans can stay consistent while the composition of the republican party itself can change. and what you've seen in the past couple years is more moderate minded republicans, environmentalist republicans have drifted away from the party. and are defining what the party believes in. i went and researched this topic beforehand. i was struck by the fact that for awhile now, the leading republican presidential nominees have said they have doubts with evolution. it started back with reagan. and it continued to george w. bush. even john mccain had to clarify when he said he did believe in evolution. that he thought the hand of god had created the grand canyon. there's always been this tension between people who want to be out in revolution

commentator and economist ben stein. so do you applaud it?erstand why the canadian interviewer, you know, like that. what do you say? >> well, i don't applaud it at all. it's always been true that a very tiny majority of the richest people in the world control enormously disproportionate amount of the wealth and poorest people can very tiny portion of the wealth. finite amount of money in the world rich people have a lot poor people have less. that's not the way it works out. if rich people got rich by starting new businesses and more technologies that gained more employment and wealth to the other people, then everybody gets richer. there is not a finite rich people getting rich does not make poor people poor. >> there is an economic issue and i agree with you that economic freedom dictates that some people are just going to go off the chart. and other people are just not going to have very much. there is also a moral issue here. with 85 of the world's richest people controlling more wealth than 3.5 billion of the world's poorest people. and

it certainly gives democrats more of a chance to win back in-some seats in the house. >> well, sam steinh's seat looks interesting. mitt romney won that district with only 51% of the vote. that seems like it could be something the democrats could get. >> yeah. now, gerlach won his re-election by 57% of the vote. so it was trending away from democrats because of redistricting. however, one thing that is in the democrats' favor is the governor of pennsylvania, tom coburn, is up for re-election. widely unpopulated guy. there will be depressed republican turnout it's expected because of that and intensified democratic support. so it is one of these seats that democrats feel they have a legitimate shot to pick up a number. but nia-malika's right. they are starting from a deficit that's going to be very difficult to overcome. they're also forfeiting a seat in all likelihood with jim mathisen in utah retiring. the one democrat so far retiring. so it is still an uphill battle for democrats, but this is probably good news for them today. >> and nia, when this happens the tea partiers don't exactl

joining me now is sam stein.ew cuomo and how this plays politically, i do want to start with this idea that the president came in and said we weren't red or blue america. we were just the united states of america. it seems electorally speaking, that's not true. the divisions are getting deeper. i think we are a stronger democracy when they are dissenting viewpoints and we're forced to discuss and debate our ideas. >> that's crazy. >> in terms of the trend, i would love to know what you think in the way in which we seem to be dividing up in the country. >> clearly the divided has been bridged. we have two parties that are very much at odds over a lot of issues. on many of the issues, the public is in support of certain policies, but the parties are at odds. through a variety of ways and reasons, including redistricting and polarization, certain states are becoming one party states. new york is confusing that because the modern republicans have a lot of sway in the state senate. idea logically, if you're an extreme

them some like to call stein's law, originally propounded something cannot go on forever, it will stop. frequently compressed as if something can't go on forever, it won't. what can go on forever? look at higher education, a lot of stuff can go one. the big thing i can go on forever is this divergence between what people make when they get out of college and what it cost to go to college. ever since the '70s which is about the time the federal government got into the business of subsidizing tuition, we've had a growth in tuition and fees that has been more than double the rate of growth in family incomes. that means people have made up the difference with the debt. the debt being form of federally subsidized and guaranteed student loan. before the housing bubble people would sometimes take out a home equity loan to finance juniors college, but while that's probably still goes on, there's a lot less of it because there's a lot less home-equity. what does it mean? it means when you graduate from college, you all a lot of money. when you graduate from college and you owe a lot of money, y

and frequently compressed, even by herb stein later on, as if something can't go on forever, it won't. well, what can't go on forever? if you look at higher education right now, you see a lot of stuff that can't go on forever, but the big thing is this die very generals between what people make when they get out of college and this -- what it costs to get out of college. in the '70s, we had a growth of tuition and fees that has been more than double the rate of growth in family incomes. and that means people have made up the difference with debt can, debt being the form of federally-subsidized and guaranteed student loans. for the most part, back before the housing bubble people would sometimes take out a home equity loan to finance junior's college. there's a lot less of it now because there's a lot less home equity. so what does that mean? well, it means that when you graduate from college, you owe a lot of money. and when you graduate from college and you owe a lot of money, you need a job that pays a lot of money to pay it off. and is here's the problem, there aren't so many of th

host: let me read some of what pearl stein wrote. teams at george mason university. was someone who shined an early light on how companies manied in nation transfer prices the price one division charges another for services to shift profits to low tax jurisdictions. explain that. pricing is a r very obscure term to most of the general public. if you are at all interested in tax policy, at all interested n corporate tax policy it is very central to what is going on. that is the first thinking i want to point out. means is that when multinational corporations do with different parts of their business so they might u.s. headquartered company and its subsidiary france, they are always transacting with each other. they are treating services an goods goods. and how you set the prices of hose transactions will determine how the profit is allocated between the two jurisdictions. again, that sounds like something well who cares. but just minor adjustments to prices you can shift a hell of a lot of profit out of the united states and into a tax haven. that is the name of the g

greg stein hoeffel says while the full extent is not known he is confident target stores are safe and secure. more than 30 states are involved in a nationwide probe. neiman-marcus says it was hit by a hacker attack during the holidays. the retailer says it's unclear how many customers may have been impacted. hackers stole data from three other retailers in december. walmart, home depot and macy's say they were not affected. >> thanks so much. >> let's check the story impacting everybody in the bay area pretty much all week long, the warm-up. christina. >> you know, i think a lot of people are looking forward to it. a lot of people don't love the cold and as you know we need the rain, we did pick up over a quarter inch over the weekend, tahoe picked up snow as well. not quite, we're not going to call it that because they need a lot of snow. 45 in livermore. 46 in concord. just about every single ski resort sent me pictures. upwards of five inches and they needed it. we're in the 30s and the 40s, headed toward the 70s in many cities, the south bay one of the warmest regions. about 70 de

sam stein is political editor of "the huffington post" and msnbc contributor.nd joan walsh is editor at large for the salon and msnbc political analyst as well. you give me this solid view down the middle. so here it is. christie was out there. he wasn't way ahead, but he was the only one that looked like they might really tussle her in the middle, grab some suburban vote, maybe some women votes around the new york, chicago, philadelphia. suburbs. now he is in trouble. >> oh, yeah, clearly. these numbers are indicative of a free-fall, basically. and i don't think that we can take these things and say, oh, well, now hillary clinton will coast to the white house. these are snapshots in time. christie himself is indicative of how these things change so rapidly. >> if something happens. >> however, he will say this. the republican party needs to figure out its own identity before it puts forward a candidate. right now what you're seeing, the fact that there is no clear front-runner is indicative of the fact that the republican party doesn't have a clear identity. o

sam stein, a voice of sobriety.ll be right back after this. >> thanks, chris. [ male announcer ] need help keeping your digestive balance in sync? try align. it's the number one ge recommended probiotic that helps maintain digestive balance. ♪ stay in the groove with align. >>> let me finish tonight with thoughts about the clintons and what rand paul said about them yesterday. here goes. bill and hillary clinton did not get to where they got by being sure things. nor did they get to where they are at now by being perfect politicians or human beings. their appeal is their wonderful resilience. bill lost his race for student council president as georgetown. he lost his race for u.s. congress. he lost his race for re-election as governor. he lost the 1992 new hampshire primary. he lost a half century of democratic control to congress in 1994. he was impeached in 1998. is that the clinton story? doesn't look like the clinton story. no way. and the reason is he came back from every setback. winning the attorney general's

someoneto put it in place, get people to sign up, i think that's when it starts falling apar >> ben stein, there's a whole lot of nonsense, company that is don't do well, they announce a new ceo, and if wall street likes the ceo, the stocks go up. could that help obamacare? >> well, if you could find a great ceo, yes, i don't think warren buffett wants a job. i don'know what other great ceos are out there. i think it's, at this point, such a complicated project. and what's the point of having a ceo. a ceo in a hugeorporation gets a lot of money. a ceo for obamacare just gets yelled at. i think it's a political try to put in one more level of bureauacy and i don't think it will help, but good luck. at this point they ed to try anything. >> that's if they want to try. adam, maybe even trying today would be an admission that you need some element of the private sector involved in this. >> i don't think that, first of all, that the private sector has a monopoly on the concept of chief executive officer or a top leader. our country has a commander in chief, for example, and has had for the ent

. >> but i do find, guys, i find it interesting that ben stein is in toronto right now. so he's already moved. >> that's medicine right there. >> ben, what do you think of this. >> i think they've scrambled up an ec, now we are trying to physical out how to unscramble it. it was always scrambled up. we never knew what was in the by. we knew it was going to be a rancifer of well to do people to less well to do people. we knew there were going to be equities and confusion. mr. obamaammed it through on his popularity after his election. we knew it was going to be a mess. sure enough it's a mess. how we will ever get out of this mess is a very good question, how we will make it operate is a very good question. how it will be fair and equitable is a fair question. why didn't they do the nixon thing of giving it a check for people who couldn't afford to buy health insurance? i have no idea. >> charles, now whether you like it or not, it is what it is and republicans, of course, want to just turn away from itch there is another strategy that says, well, let this thing go on its
