performances in the past. particularly against hillary clinton that tried to clean his clock that a lot of those primary debates. president obama has a history, a great fourth quarter player. he doesn't seem batting cage, he exhibits some platitudes and he is not really fully there. speaking historically, when his back is against the wall, the stakes are highest and he usually rises to the occasion. an extraordinarily competitive politician. he knows how badly he did back in denver. it was a supporter of the president rooting for him, i would be counting on that history he has had of rising to big ments where he absolutely needed to win. tavis: i agree with you again that the president and his competitor, there are all kinds of stories and detailed articles written about his persona in the way that he often rises to the occasion. i am not into hot psychology, but what does this have to do with the fact that joe biden put some heat on him? that he was so good, he -- democrats believe that joe biden was so good that the president needs to step up his game cannot be i shined by his own vic

. just very briefly and clinton as a family with a certain kind of character here on page 150 assembling about the draft one subject only and the identity sometimes he outright lie. more often he shaded the truth ceasing to feel entitled to constructive events in ways that work to his own benefits. i happen to be at yale in the number of graduate when they were in law school together and the one wonders about the attraction and then one reads the second which is about tenet start interviewing hillary clinton. i could tell you a story who i had dinner with at precisely this time but this would go on too long. in the end he determined that he didn't have enough evidence to indict hillary clinton. examples of disingenuous statements of disclaimers and outright confiscation were abundant. something your regular and perhaps illegal had taken place with of the first lady much more than her husband at the heart of it. and we to understand the attraction the clintons had for each other. [laughter] [booing] i am quoting from the author -- [applause] who was one of the great historians of liberali

to the other side? president clinton is out there selling the case of the guy he hopes will be another president clinton's predecessor. he gave that great deal-making speech at the d.n.c. now he's out there on the campaign trail doing what obama didn't do last week -- exposing mitt romney's hard right baggage. with us today, "new york" magazine's john hileman, christian science monitor, liz liz, and henderson henderson from "the washington post," and from "the daily beast," andrew sullivan. thursday night's debate was everything the romney and obama presidential debate had not been. >> you can still preserve the important tant things for middle class taxpayers. >> it's not mathematically possible. >> it's not mathematically possible. it's never been done before. >> it's been done a couple of times. >> it has never been done. >> oh, now you're jack kennedy. >> this tuesday night it's back to the main events. barack obama probably will tone it down a bit from biden's intensity. he's going to try to make romney look insincere. here's how bill clinton pulled it off with a gentle dismissal

bill"bill and hillary" clinton's relationship affected their political lives. describes how each partner assistanted in the other's career gabs. it's about an hour. [applause] >> good evening, everybody, thank you all for being here. i'm directer of the kansas city public library, it's a great pleasure to have you here and have will chafe here to talk about his excellent new book. called the reflective, ranchy and rivetting. i want to write a book that gets that kind of press myself. i'm trying to live a life that first of all. [laughter] but this book and tonight's top i -- topic will remind us we have a presidential campaign going on in which there is a human cry about what is truth and what is fact, what is fiction, what is a lie, and it reminds us most of this is reterritorial exaggeration but there was a time in american history there were really great liers. we're going to be reminded of that tonight. remember barry gold water talking about richard nixon? i can't tell you what he said, it's a family library and family television tonight. but there was a time when there were

and prove his first debate victory wasn't a fluke. taking responsibility, hillary clinton accepting full responsibility for the security failures in benghazi, but she says it shouldn't be a political issue. >> i don't think we want to get into any blame game. what we want to do is get to the bottom of what happened. >> and with the polls showing that romney is now narrowing the gap among women, the wives are front and center. >> mitt's prepared, mitt's confident, mitt's got a good presence about him. >> look at you for encouragement? >> you know, i can never tell, but i'm always primed just in case he is, so i'm perched looking at had him, smiling giving a thumb's up if he can see it. >> and good day. i'm andrea mitchell live at hofstra university in new york. we have a big crowd here. a thumb's up to them and let's play 20 questions. president obama and mitt romney come face to face with real people tonight, 80 undecided but likely voters chosen by gallup from this community be around hofstra. moderator candy crowley of cnn will choose which 20 will get to a ask those questions if they

of the past 24 hours. secretary of state, hillary clinton yesterday, seemed to try to take full responsibility for the terrorist attacks in benghazi five weeks ago sparring and shielding the president from first time criticisms, but then secretary clinton spent a goodly amount of time afterwards walking back the degree of responsibility she apparently intended to assume with her statements. >> i'm responsible for the state department for the more than 60,000 people around the world. the decisions about security assets are made by security professionals, and we knew there were security breaches and problems throughout libya that was something that came about as the aftermath of the revolutions that toppled gadhafi with so many militias formed, so many weapons loose, and it was taken intoing the by the security professionals making their assessments. lou: it is clear tonight that secretary clinton is taking only broad speedometer for the department of state and the 60,000 men and women, as she put it, who work there. as if on cue, last night, u.n. ambassador, susan rice, also chose to break her

people. can he rouse the troops? bill and hillary clinton have emerged as major allies of the president in this election. hillary clinton took heat off the white house yesterday when she said she, not the president, was responsible for the lack of security in benghazi. the former president has emerged as a major booster out on the campaign trial. so, just how important is the clinton factor this election? we'll get to that. that's always fun. >>> plus, i'll go toe to toe with obama and romney stand-ins for another round-up "just answer the question," my turn to pose the questions i would like to ask the candidates in tonight's debate. jason chafman of utah will play president obama. >>> let me finish with this, heavyweight battle. this is "hardball," the place for politics, life from hofstra university. hey. hey eddie. i brought your stuff. you don't have to do this. yes i do. i want you to keep this. it'd be weird. take care. you too. [ sighs ] so how did it go? he's upset. [ male announcer ] spend less time at gas stations with best in class fuel economy. it's our most innovative alti

briefly about the attack in benghazi? >> but wright's bus bos will crawl under the bus. hillary clinton says she takes the responsibility for what happened in benghazi. >> i do everything i can to protect our people and i wanted to make sure we track on down whoever did this. >> it comes a day before the second presidential debate. where the president for the first time takes responsibility, too. then goes after romney. >> the day after the attack, governor, i stood in the rose garden. i told the american people that this was an act of terror and the suggestion that anybody in my team would play politics or mislead when we have lost four of our own governor is offensive. >> that set off an exchange that may go down as one of the most remarkable in the history of televised presidential debates. >> you said in the rose garden it was an act of terror. it was not a spontaneous demonstration. >> please proceed, governor. >> i want to make sure we get to that for the record. it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in benghazi an act of terror. >> he did in fact. let me call

. >> president barack obama. >> former president bill clinton? are we better off? you bet we are. if obama wins it it may be because a former president saved his presidency. >> i am clinton. as overlord, all will kneel before me and obey my commands. end communication. >>> with just 22 days until election and 23 hours until the second presidential debate, a new "washington post" poll shows the number of undecided voters shrinking. nearly two-thirds say they do not need any more information before election day, and barely one in eight is undecided or says there is a chance he or she could change the vote. while president obama spent today in debate prep in virginia, michelle obama campaigned in ohio, where the latest poll of likely voters shows the president ahead by five points. >> this morning, let me tell you what i did. the i cast my ballot early for barack obama. it felt so good right now, my absentee ballot is on its way to my hometown, chicago, illinois, and that means we are one vote closer to re-electing my husband and moving this country forward for four more years. >> fox news chief r

in benghazi. why secretary of state hillary clinton says she, and not the white house, is to blame. a young girl in pakistan shot in the head by the taliban because she wanted to go to school. she is now out of that country and in a british hospital but concerns for her safety are far from over. we'll tell you why, it is all "happening now." jenna: election day three weeks away. jon: hard to believe. it is a tuesday, three weeks from now. jenna: tonight's showdown between the president and governor romney may make-or-break this very tight race for both men. we saw what happened after the first debate. will it rebeat. i'm jenna lee. jon: oomph jon scott. hours away for number two between president obama and mitt romney. the stage is all set there. the carpet is down. governor romney clearly needs to hold the momentum he gained after a solid performance in the first debate in denver while president obama looks to strike a more aggressive tone tonight in hopes of recapturing momentum for himself. the associated press in previewing tonight's debate writes the president must quote, deliver a gol

into the camera. we will see that bill clinton to iran -- and developed the love days. the he looks into the camera and you just want to hug him. if he stands there long enough, he will hunt you. [laughter] the worst thing i could happen to him is that i shoot him from behind. that suggests what about him as a person and? the guilty from the side, but from behind? he is not even here. people with cameras and know how to use them to affect the outcome. in fact, what happens during presidential debates, and tonight, one of the things they're looking for -- the day meeting that networks because they need something to keep you awake. roughly 40% of the people watching to i will vote for joe biden's ticket no matter what. roughly 40% will vote for the other side no matter what. the debate is the 20% in the middle. you can say almost anything and the republican will vote for you. you can say almost anything if you are a democrat and they will vote for you. you are aiming for the 20% in the middle. tonight is a ball game. it is the vice presidential debate. and is a ball game. and some peo

behind hillary clinton. he's hiding behind john kerry on the first debate. highed will behind george bush on the economy. going to raise las vegas to raise money immediately after an american ambassador is kid, killed, at what point does will than obama take responsibility? >> greta: the polls are incredibly close. >> i think part of it is frankly the weakness of the republican party in reaching out to a wide range of minority grooms. african americans are dramatically more conservative than their vote for obama and part of that is the republican party's fault. the elite media has worked overtime to prop up obama over and over and over again. that's why you see a little bit of an argument about candy crowley's role tomorrow night whether or not you ought to follow the rules in only having a town hall meeting not having the moderator try to define things. part of its is obama is annual attractive personal. this is a will pleasant person with a nice family, with a good smile, that people really wanted to have succeed. i mean, i think a lot of americans were very proud to have elected an afr

to the attack in benghazi. yesterday, secretary of state, hillary clinton said she takes responsibility for security failures there. does that change things for the president? the last minute shakeup after the campaigns complained about what ccn's candy crowley said about the moderator and the feds warning patients who receive any shot from the firm in massachusetts linked to the deadly strain of meningitis to beware with the outbreak just getting started. it is all b." first from fox at 3:00 in new york, counting down to the debate, three weeks to the day in an increasingly tight race. both men have been through days of intense preparations. president obama looking for a turn around to erase the memory of a lackluster performance in the first debate. governor romney seeking to build on his campaign's momentum answering questions on domestic and phone policy from an audience of voters on long island who claim to be undecided. this morning, the president told reporters he feeled "fabulous." that is a jonathan hunt work but did not respond when asked if he agrees that secretary of state,

is courting women, bill clinton and bruce springsteen were in ohio going after what you might call white blue collar people like where i came from. >>> also, prospects for the democrats holding the senate are brightening. we have some real brand new poll numbers that suggest the democrats may just hold onto this senate after all. one state where they face an uphill battle is nebraska where bob kerrey, great old bob kerrey, is hoping for a comeback. he's coming here in a minute. >> impressive crowd, the haves and the have mores. some people call you the elite. i call you my base. >> that's going to be a lot of fun tonight. this is "hardball"hardball," the place for politics. >>> with less than three weeks to go to election day, you can learn a lot about the election by simply looking at where the campaigns are spending the most money on tv ads. and this week four of the top five cities are in wisconsin or ohio. number five, madison, wisconsin. number four, columbus, ohio. third, cincinnati, ohio. number two, denver, colorado. and the top ad this week, green bay, wisconsin, again. so the battle

was at a free rally with president bill clinton, and our ben mankiewicz was there to cover it. he's now outside of cleveland ben, how are you and how was that rally? >> it was great. bill clinton gave the same kind of speech that he gave at the convention. we went to the math. he used numbers. bill clinton makes the case for mitt romney or barack obama you think who in their right mind is voting for mitt romney. he breaks it down and makes it easily understandable, and then introduced bruce springsteen. he did five songs plus that real thing. that was not a real song. >> cenk: yeah, we have clinton on tape. he's so good at it. he has the folksy thing. >> mr. romney says i'm gonna do all this. i'm gonna cut taxes just for the middle class. i'm not interested in rich people. they'll pay the same percentage of tax that they pay now. he thinks we're dumb. we keep saying, show us your budget. where are your numbers? the president has given you a budget. this guy ran bain capital, and he's a business guy and he's hiding his budget? that ought to tell you something. >> cenk: i love what he does with t

to be in mourning for several days and not go about our daily business. >> hillary clinton suggests the attack was just a spontaneous demonstration about the anti-islam video. >> there is no justification, none at all for a responding to this video with violence. >> reporter: current white house press secretary says flat out the next day. >> these protests were in reaction to a video. we have no information to suggest that it was a preplanned attack. >> and later that day when the president and secretary of state greet the deceased at joint base andrews, clinton talks again about the video. >> we have seen rage and violence directed at american embassies over an awful internet video that we had nothing to do with. >> september 15th, california authorities they call in the man that produced the video for questioning and marched him in front of tv cameras. september 16, u.s. ambassador to the united nations goes on five talk shows repeating the same story each time. >> what happened initially, it was a spontaneous reaction to what had transpired in cairo. >> my reaction where is secretary of sta

with phil lip, professor here at yornlg -- george mason university. you served as an adviser to the clinton global initiative. what do you advise on? >> guest: well, thank you for asking me that question. i was at the global initiative the last three days, working with them for the last three year, and i thank you because i really appreciated that afghanistan. they have a -- i really appreciated that affiliation. they have a wonderful platform there, and they need advisers on the program, what to feature, what people bring new ideas, and challenge that audience to think about differentñhr ways to engae in the world. it's relevant because in every participant's bag is a registered for the clinton global initiative this year, received a copy of "time" magazine in which clinton authored an essay titled "the case for optimism," and at the clinton global initiative this year, chelsea clinton led a session called ""the case for on optimism," and so, you know, i am totally synced with that message and the focus op finding collaborative solutions to the world's greatest challenges, and we have a l

that could take center stage, the situation in libya. secretary of state hillary clinton has now taken the blame. >> i'm responsible for the state department, for the more than 60,000 people around the world. "studio b" but world. >> shepard: but a number of lawmakers still aren't satisfied. >> when did the president know and what did he do about it? >> shepard: tonight what it could mean for the presidential election. plus a potential raise for the 56 million americans on social security. the feds announcing that monthly payments are on the rise, but by how much? tonight we'll do the math. and the british hacker who's been fighting extradition to the united states learns his fate. a man wanted here for allegedly breaking into pentagon and nasa computers, but he says he was only searching for evidence of ufos. but first from fox this tuesday night, just two hours away from what could be a crucial rematch on the road to the white house. the second of three potential debates -- i should say presidential debates here at hofstra university at hempstead, long island in new york, president o

homophobia is unchristian. hillary clinton shocks republicans by taking responsibility for something -- something no republican did after 9-11. to make sense of all of this right now, we head over to the deep underground bunker and lisa ferguson in the current news center. good morning. >> hey john, good morning everyone. it is round two of the presidential debates tonight and president obama is under a lot of pressure. if the polls mean anything which is debatable in itself but if they do, the president has lost some significant ground after his performance in denver two weeks ago. the president did have a steady lead in many swing states including new hampshire but it seems that's pretty much wiped out. a suffolk university news poll has the two candidates tied there at 47%. and a really shocking poll coming out of gallup and "usa today," the president has consistently been well ahead with women voters but now seems he's tied up there too. the poll surveyed voters in 12 swing states and found an even split among

. and third he was up against the political maestro who was advised by our friend, hank sheinkopf. clinton had a very strong pro-israel background. she was -- he was comfortable to the jewish and both his domestic social policies were jewish generally tend to be more assertive democrats and on the foreign policy front as well. so we had the eight years of clinton and bush sons come around in 2000, looking to replace, to step in after quite retired. we had two terms that we didn't have the constitutional amendment, he might still be president based on his recent speech at the convention. but it's not. we have the amendment, to terms the value to appear as though bush is running to replace him and i have a friend, a yarmulke wearing friend who is at an event with george w. bush around 2011 before the election. bush sought him out from the crowd, pulled him aside and grabbed him by the arm and said i want you to know i'm not going to be like my father was on israel. and bush is from different perspective. bush is a w. bush. w. is from a different perspective. george w. bush had should prohibit mi

clinton advisor dick morris. how are you mr. morris. >> i'm doing great and you read these polls and they are very good for your health. >> sean: we'll get into all these different swing states, michigan, pennsylvania, minnesota? >> a lot the other states. nevada, iowa -- >> the traditional swing states. >> right. >> my case here, remember how i was on your show in 2010, and about three weeks before election day, said raise your sights, go after the seats you that didn't think you could win. you've already won the seats that you thought you could win. and the republican party did that, and instead of 40 they got over 60? now it's time for the republican party to not just focus on florida, ohio, virginia, nevada, but instead go to the next tier of statements. pennsylvania, wisconsin, michigan, minnesota, and maybe even new jersey. >> if i'm the romney campaign, i'm acting like i have a touchdown to go, in the fourth quarter, and they can't make mistakes. and we've seen momentum shifts that have -- there have been a number of them. the biggest being the debate, and there's another

the campaign trail. first a question of responsibility. secretary of state hillary clinton says the buck stops with her when it comes to the lack of security in benghazi libya. the terrorist attack that killed the first u.s. ambassador created a political firestorm for this white house. chief white house correspondent ed henry has the lead story tonight. >> president obama did a final one-hour prep section and laughed about his wife casting absentee ballot. joking stopped when reporter asked about libya. >> are you aware if michigan voting for you yesterday? >> thank goodness. >> is hillary to blame for benghazi? >> the commander in chief left the talking to secretary of state hillary clinton. >> well, i'm responsible for state department, for the more than 60,000 people around the world. the decision about security assets are made by security professionals. >> not so fast according to senator john mccain. who scared off with then senator obama on the stage in hofstra university four years ago. >> there was a sign on harry truman's desk that said, "the buck stops here." obviously, there may be

: meanwhile hillary clinton said she will take the fall for the security debacle. >> i am responsible for the state department and 60,000 people around the world. >> steve: is the former first lady protecting president obama. a growing group of lawmakers saying her comments are not good enough. navy seals who finally killed osama bin laden. that was not the boldest option. wait enemy you hear about the other idea. "fox and friends" is getting started now. ♪ ♪ "fox and friends". >> steve: welcome aboard. that is hofstrauniversity out in long island. >> brian: how would you upon. i lived there. >> steve: take two. >> brian: my brother went to college there. >> gretchen: what is the accent. >> brian: you say long island. it is long island. >> gretchen: sorry, in the midwest you enunciate the consinate. >> brian: we separate words on long island. >> gretchen: teach me to say it. >> brian: long island. everyone does it. hard g. they are going to stop traffic. if you know that area, there is no way to get around there. there is where the islanders pay and looks like it was built in 195

something an effort by president obama and vice president biden to say no it was really secretary clinton. >> now, libya could come up tomorrow night because as carl said it's different from the first debate in denver because tomorrow night it will be half domestic, half international policy. so this could go up, but since it's a town hall format, you know, governor romney has to be careful if he starts charging a coverup for the president in front of these swing voters that could back fire and look too negative and same for the president. if he gets too aggressive in trying to make up for lost time after that first debate that he lost, it could back fire on him as well, shep. >> shepard: a lot of strategy involved here. over the last few days, ed, has the president had anything to say about the situation in libya? >> you know, he hasn't said very much while he has been here in williamsburg. he has been hunkered down. he made a brief visit to a local campaign headquarters here delivering some pizza to some of his volunteers to sort of fire up the troops if you will. he has done a handful

sure to come up is libya and secretary of state hillary clinton is giving the president some political cover by taking full responsibility for the security failures that led to the death of u.s. diplomats in benghazi. >>> just like old time, h ross perot the third name in the headlines on a presidential debate day. he is choosing sides and making news in a key battleground state when he does t >>> good morning from new york city 21 days until election day, a few miles away from the debate site at hofstra in long island, tuesday, october 16, 2012 this is the daily run down, ima chuck todd. get right to my first reads to of the morning. a decisive victory for either candidate tonight could create momentum tough for the other to stop before election day. for mitt romney, another debate win might mean he could break the president's stranglehold on states like ohio and wisconsin, making the foote 270 electoral vote a lot more realistic. for the president, a win could reset the race before the first debate when it looked like the president was becoming the heavy favorite a new pew poll shows

for the job. you know, there's a reason why bill clinton and a lot of great strategists over the years, probably people you have worked with, have said you have to be a happy warrior. that means two different things, the optimistic candidate always wins and the one who is fighting, fighting for all of their constituencies and fighting for themselves, right? that is what obama did not do in denver. he did not fight. he did not fight -- >> did somebody tell him not to talk about women's issues? did somebody say don't talk about the auto industry? he didn't. don't talk about what you've done to the economy. you go to down from double digits. you got the stock market double. you have done this. say so. if you don't toot your own horn, nobody else will. >> i don't know -- >> doesn't anybody tell him this stuff? anyway, the president needs to stand up for his record i believe of his accomplishments. those include, let's go through them again, mr. president, if you're watching, saving the auto industry, which resulted in over 100,000 jobs being created. the president brought the economy back

trail together. i think that might be fun in ohio. while the president is courting women, bill clinton and bruce springsteen were in ohio going after what you might call white blue collar people like where i came from. >>> also, prospects for the democrats holding the senate are brightening. we have some real brand new poll numbers that suggest the democrats may just hold onto this senate after all. one state where they face an uphill battle is nebraska where bob kerrey, great old bob kerrey, is hoping for a comeback. he's coming here in a minute. >>> both presidential candidates will be at the al smith dinner in new york. i'll be there. it's a big election year ritual here in this country. >> impressive crowd, the haves and the have mores. some people call you the elite. i call you my base. >> that's going to be a lot of fun tonight even when your speech is obviously written by somebody smarter than you and certainly somebody funnier. we'll be there. anyway, this is "hardball," the place for politics. so you say men are superior drivers? yeah. then how'd i get this...
