host: steny beth martin is co- founder of the tea party patriots. which speakers online at best with your values put out the ec the tea party influence -- how do you see the tea party influence reflected in the convention? guest: what the convention chose is republicans elect republicans and they allow republican elected officials to speak. they are speaking and addressing our core values. it is not a grass-roots convention. it is a political party's party, and the democrats will be the exact same way. each party will nominate their nominee and they are required to do that. it is good to see people who are talking about the things we care about. what we care the very most about is how will they cover and once in office. this week it is good for people to care from the elected officials. we are more concerned with what they will do, what kind of legislation they will pass while governing. host: any surprises in the lineupz -- in the lineup? guest: no surprises to me, and i did not have a lot of expectations for who the speakers were. the people who i

history of talking about before 1968 and would be very hard to find any people of color reporters, stenyare in the u.s. and in this article they spoke to many of the longtime reporters at these papers. many said that they could remember the riots that caused them to be hired, sort of these rights in the late 60s and early 70s in various cities in almost every city and the newspaper would say, we don't understand what this right came from, but we better hire someone from this community to report on it and in many ways they were cut plan by these changes. that really says why we need this diversity in media. it is not just because it's the right thing to do, that the media cannot report correctly if it does not have voices from that committee. and columbia journalism review of an article that many newspapers in the country continued to have this issue of a lack of diversity on their staff. they interviewed one person who had just been in an editorial meeting at the "houston chronicle." there was one person of color in that editorial meeting. so this is a problem continuing to plague these

>> well, nancy pelosi and steny hoyer do. >> other than those two? >> no.k back to 1964, and that was a big election, that the president in power gained more than 25 seats. that's what nancy pelosi needs. she needs 25 seats. and if she's going to become speaker again, she may need 35 seats, and democrats are not going to vote for her. >> that is going to be about as hard as scott brown picking up those 300,000 obama voters that he has to have to win up in massachusetts. >> he's going to have a hard time, i think. >> he is going to have a hard time, unfortunately. sam stein? >> listen, the other element to the story is that if you look at any of these opinion polls, the republican brand still trails the democratic brand. and that's going to have an effect in these swing states, just because people are associating different platforms and not voting on the candidates themselves. my question is, to what extent do you factor this into your assessment of the house races? are republican leaders worried about the party brand, or are they pretty much confident that,
