when you see bill clinton out beloved, it's an important part of campaigning in that state. i think democrats, even democrats who have to move to the center look toward bill clinton as somebody who can maybe get out the vote and getting the numbers as you know, is going to be really important in both of those states. >> how crucial is it for hillary clinton as she is out there to prove she can move the needle for democrats in louisiana and other races where she is planning to appear? >> what's crucial, david, is which direction she moves the needle because the needle could go in the other direction. there are some people that find her distasteful in those parts of the country. even arkansas where she was the first lady. she is known well in arkansas. again, she was a carpet bagger who came in from illinois who went to yale and so there was soo am distaste for her. she does have sway with women voters. where mary landreiux is struggling. it will be interesting to see her in iowa where she will be out there stumping for bruce brael, the congressman against joni ernst against a

i want to play a bill clinton remark and get your reaction. watch. >> great thing about not being president any more is you can just say whatever you want. unless your wife might run for something. and then you can say whatever you want as long as you don't make any headlines. >> michael, is it possible for bill clinton not to make headlines? >> it isn't but he made the wrong ones in 2008 in south carolina. he is saying i just don't want to do that. >> al jazeera michael shure, we appreciate it. >>> staying with presidential politics, bill clinton is not the only one trying to avoid news making news. so is hillary. a canadian journalist asked here? she supports the keystone pipeline? >> i can't talk about it because i was in the office that has primary responsibility for making the decision. i don't want to inject myself in to what is a continuing process or to in any way undermine my successor. >> but that hasn't stopped clinton from undermining her successor john kerry and her former boss, president obama, on other issues like syria. in the

bill clinton was a southerner. i remember down in waco, texas, the young clerk in the hotel i walked into, he said i kind of thing those two boys are going to win. there was a sense of regional guys running in their 40s. bill clinton carried george, i believe in '92, lost in '96. can hillary clinton have a shot in a place like georgia? >> i don't think she can. and james carville was the governor's consultant when he was running. but i think we also have to remember that bill clinton was running after 12 years of republican rule and with a very bad economy. now the economy is not so great, but it's not the republicans' fault. i think that's going to hurt her. but getting back to bill clinton's southern charm, if you will, i've met him many times. he's a likeable guy, an approachable guy. he can talk to the heads of state. he can talk to the gas station attendant. hillary clinton does not have that skill, and she can't fake it. >> do you ever talk to her on that one to one basis? i've done it and it's a different hi

bill clinton can help them. i love the way that clinton, although it seems convoluted is , going straight into the teeth of the republican argument which is, this is a referendum on barack obama. he is saying it is not. you have to focus on this guy. >> the congressman is saying the clinton years were great. we are against barack obama. republicans know bill clinton is not going to swing the race, but he is worth more points on the ground in that state than any other human being alive is worth in any state in the union. and he has got not just mark pryor but close friends of his he would love to help. he got pretty good today. as the day goes on, he gets better. that was his morning event. he has events tonight and tomorrow. >> it was a great poll that came out for nbc news, and annenberg study, that said bill clinton is the only endorser in either party who actually matters. it is true particularly among undecided voters. he is over 50% approval. no one else like that. >> moving on. the jets got squashed by the

bill clinton in bubba land. arkansas pretty much surrendered to bill clinton. even many of the democrats can't stand obama. if bill can pull it off for pryor, the logic goes, it's dry run for his magical powers for hillary in 16. so tammy, what about those magical powers and if he does pull it off for pryor, does that mean he's got them and if pryor loses, does the former president lose his magical powers? >> well, look, even six years ago the magical powers should have been even stronger and they weren't even able to help his own wife. so you've got a problem here. the jensen sus is that pryor had done a lot of damage in a tuesday debate, that bill clinton is not really going to be able to help. real clear politics average now has the republicans picking up eight senate seats. so this is a very difficult time. bill clinton seems to be their hail mary pass. but remember, if he wasn't able to make a difference in 2008, i think you're looking at less of an ability to make an impact right now and especially for someone in that kind of position, not even in his hom

when we passed a budget bike bill clinton -- by bill clinton, the republicans took a walk. we passed it on the democratic side. we worked every vote. ultimately, we were able to win it by one vote in the house and senate. that was because of a tough fight to get it done. dedication kind of to how we should push our democracy. >> why is bill clinton that way and not barack obama? >> the one thing different between the two is bill clinton loves politics. he loves the engagement, to cut a deal. obama once the logic of his position to persuade people. in washington, logic is not enough. you have to be able to go in and push people in the right directions. >> exercise power. >> aber simon -- abraham lincoln had to buy some votes. >> where were you when bill clinton -- when the president was not doing this? were you telling him any meeting meeting? >> there was something called sequester. a mechanism that congress developed to shoot themselves in the head. say, gun to the head and if we do not do the right thing, we will pull the trigger. suddenly, this drastic cut will go into e

>> well, bill clinton ran largely as an outsider. he was a young attractive southern democrat running against the establishment. hillary clinton meanwhile, if she is to run for president, it will be as the ultimate insider. she has houses how in washington, d.c. and chappaqua, new york. she's an establishment figure who can't really rayil against the establishment. obviously bill clinton's main message was on the middle class and trying to help the middle class. hillary clinton is likewise expected to establish some sort of message if she ever does around that central theme, as well. >> susan. >> well, i'm just laughing, some message if she ever does. i remember 1991, bill clinton was trying to break a long string of democratic losses interrupted only by the election of jimmy carter, a southern moderate. we had been losing over and over again. clinton has you see him there now, you know, as a 40 something-year-old governor, he certainly wasn't going to run on foreign policy experience. he wasn't going to run as somebody who had the d

his father was closes to bill clinton for a long time. he brings something to the race that barack obama can't. bill clinton appeals to the african american voters you were talking about earlier on the show. but also to the rural white voters, the ones that are not happy with president obama this time around. and that was a message that bill clinton brought to these crowds here. he rallied at college campuses, he's looking for young votes. but what he said, republicans are trying to make this about president obama. president has really only two years left. the senator you choose is going to be in there for six and that you should look past that sort of lens. he acknowledged the fraught history of race that's present here in arkansas. he talked about what it was like to be here during the civil rights era and how the state has changed for the better since then. he made this pitch to students, to look forward to the future, try not to let republicans define it a certain way. if you think about congressman to the cotton, he's one of the more

you know bill clinton faced a , tough congress. but he also understood that in the end, you still have to engage with people. you still have to cut a deal. >> is about the president's personality? his mindset? his experience? is that the reason he is different than bill clinton or lyndon johnson? >> this president is extremely bright and extremely able extremely interested in doing , the right thing. >> you said he is not in the fight. >> but the problem is if you want to be able to get things done in washington, you have got to fight for it. you have to fight for it every day. look, when we passed a budget by bill clinton, the republicans took a walk. so we had to pass it on the democratic side. we established the role. we worked every vote. but ultimately, we were able to win it by one vote in the house , one vote, and one vote in the senate, the vice president votes. that was because of a tough fight to get it done. that is the kind of dedication to how we should push our democracy. >> ok, but you have not told me why is bill cl

we are talking about bill clinton and mike bebe. this could be the last of the popular democrats in the state. >> that's right. he is the most popular democratic governor in the country that is increasingly red. you want all 75 counties and the tea party watched over arkansas. he sort of is widely considered the last of this pop lift democrat who plays really well in the state. >> a quote from your piece of yesterday. how is he regarded as one female operative. he talk like molasses and i want to have his babies. you can fall on your sword and if it kills you, what good are you going to do? that's how he has been managing to get along and that's not far from the way they rained there. clinton will be com paining. it's something of a grudge match. he has his former droifr going up against asa hutchinson on the impeachment committee. >> there is attachments to clinton world everywhere in the race. dived pryor and bill clinton go way back. mark pryor's father. there is ties everywhere. even in the way the democrats are approaching the

. >> who is a better politician barack obama or bill clinton and why? >> bill clinton is the best politician of our time. first of all, he really likes people. he pays attention to people, not intellectually, but emotionally. obama doesn't have that kind of skill. obama really is rather standoffish. he is shy. when i say he doesn't like people, i may be doing him somewhat of a disservice. he may be so shy and so hesitant to interfere, so to speak, where bill clinton feels that his obligation to interfere. >> do you feel there's any chance democrats are not headed for a pretty significant repudiation at the polls right now? >> no, the u.s. senate, on november 5, will be in the hands of democrats. >> you are the most bullish on the democrats chance of any single person in the united states. if they end up retaking the house, you will be seen as nostradamus on election day. >> mark, willie brown went on to say there was a chance that democrats could even retake the house. he may be living in the bubble of the san francisco delusion. the most rocking thing

>> he writes about working for bill clinton and the joy in politics that bill clinton took and what he effectively says is bill clinton would make any deal with you and what he was great at was convincing you that what he wanted was actually good for you and that's why he could cut deals. his point about this president is that president obama loves the policy part of it and he's brilliant at it but he says the deal-making part of it, the political part of it, not so much. that's not one of his great skills and he urges the president, for the next years, if he wants to have a legacy that deals with things like immigration reform to actually start doing more of that so programs we could get more done. >> does the white house think this is a problem and if so how are they planning to push back? >> they're pushing back on it. they like leon panetta. they don't want to overtly sort of attack him but what they're saying is look, he's talking a different game than he talked when he was -- he supported the president's policy on not leaving the residual force in iraq at the time and that he was

bill clinton was not very disciplined. [laughter] >> for barack obama is very disciplined in the way he behaves. it's a very different character. for me, i know that bob gates kind of reflected in frustration with that process. but for me, i understand that process, having been through it as chief of staff and having been in politics, i understand that kind of process that goes on there. but in the end i do think that even though we had to fight our way through it and that in the process, in the end the president would pretty much agree with the positions that we recommended and he said that and i've said that as well. >> you don't want to go to the white house if you are looking for plus and. [laughter] >> you know, go to the caribbean or go to quiet, but don't go to the white house. the white house is -- it is a place where you have to engage you want to get it done. you have to love your sleeves and you have to get into the process and, you know, frankly i like the process of engaging with people even though they may no

this is day two of having bill clinton on the trail here in alaska. he's almost twice as popular as president baumgz in arkansas. as you saw, he's really trying to convince voters the race should be about more than president obama. obama's election was really a turning point here in arkansas. before 2008 there was just one republican in the congressional delegation. and now there's just one democrat left standing. >> all right kasie, we'll be watching. thank you very much. we want to turn to the the senate race in colorado. on monday, republican governor garner clashed with mark udall as well as each candidate's ties to their party. >> the president just said it yesterday. his policies are on the ballot. and that's what we're going discuss today. the policies of the president and the fact that mark udall has voted with him 99% of the time. >> his record is out of the mainstream. it's in the extreme. >> we are joined now from denver. he moderated that senate debate as well as the clash between the candidates for governor. the colorado senate race has t

>> i like burger king bill clinton better than vegan bill clinton, point that out. i think that president clinton had a lot of things right. one of the things was to work in a bipartisan way. conversation with jed is the campaign in the november elections. i don't think they're goinn to do anything related to bola or anything that will upsay the the core base constituency going intt the election. president clinton, bipartisan, bring people together, president obama has made the decisionnhe wants to stay on one side of things. >> tracy, want to know what's happened to our country? >> anthonn just said it, it's the elections. always an election. if these guys don't get term limit, this will never stop, david, everyone is working towards the next vote, towards the next election, lobbying for playgrounds back at home to get votes as opposed to caring what they're supposed to. >> veronica, we did not have term imits in the 80s and 90s when bill clinton was running, we had bipartisan reform, trade, et cetera. >> we had a lot more bipartisan effort, that's for sure. the go

let's start with president bill clinton. reminding everybody that, after taking account of inflation, that the middle class in this country is no better off than when he left office. that's pretty staggering to provide that kind of ammunition to the republican party, don't you think. dennis: i think so and bill has some appeal in some rural south areas. but he's not helping president obama at all. and the reminder that bill clinton gives to the american people is, look, everybody knows, either they have a 24 or 27-year-old son or daughter that graduated from college can't get a job. they're living back home. everybody has that type of experience. the middle class and the economy has not come back yet even though we hear these statistics. people don't really believe it's happened. lou: you know, what i hear a lot of, that's the incumbent president who is saying indisputably every comic indicator is positive since he came to office. i mean, i can't even imagine what his advisors were thinking. then he says, all of his policies

decided to run away from bill clinton. the dmon wisdom is that the democratic party is now doing that to barack obama as well. the only sure-fire top tier candidacy is not just setting itself up, they're also drafting loyalists from the obama cabinet to do that work for them. so those punches will land with a harder blow. with more than two years left of the obama presidency, how self-defeating is this for democrats. why are democrats right now giving up on this presidency. the tell fence of president barack obama is coming from somewhere you would not expect. it's not coming from the democratic party and its politicians. >> they call it the hope and change progress. 55 figures that prove president obama has accomplished more than you may realize. more than you may realize because the only democrats have apparently decided they would be against this because they would believe that would be their own gain and be against this president to try to help themselves than be on his side. is that an inevitable political just in ter
