let's dispel with this fiction that barack obama doesn't know what he's doing. he knows exactly what he's doing. here's the bottom line, this notion that barack obama doesn't know what he's do being is just not -- >> there it is. >> anyone who believes that barack obama isn't doing what he's doing on purpose doesn't understand what we're dealing with here. >> driving home the message or stuck on talking points? rubio defends his debate performance as rival chris christie goes for the kill. it's 5:30 on the east coast, 2:30 out west, this is "way too early." >>> good morning. it's monday, february 8th, i'm chris janzing live from manchester, new hampshire. now just a day before the first in the nation primary. we'll get to the super bowl in a second. and a tale of two quarterbacks. cam newton withers under denver's defense. and have we seen peyton manning's last snap under center? but first a quick rundown of some of the latest polls in the new hampshire republican primary tomorrow. cnn/wmur has donald trump with a 17-point lead. 33% to marco rubio's 16%. ted cru

that whole journey of barack obama started nine years ago today. and as president, president obama went back to springfield today to springfield, illinois, to mark the occasion. >> nine years to the day that i first announced for this office, i still believe in that politics of hope. and for all the challenges of a rapidly changing world, and for all the imperfections of our democracy, the capacity to reach across our differences and choose that kind of politics, not a cynical politics, not a politics of fear, but that kind of politics, sustained over the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime, that's something that remains entirely up to us. thank you, illinois. god bless you. god bless america. it's good to see all of you. i miss you guys. >> i miss you guys. president obama speaking to the illinois legislature today. a place where he used to work. among his former colleagues. and when you look at the symbolism and the occasion that president obama marked today, it's fascinating because nine years ago today, from that illinois statehouse, h

that was not really barack obama's message. john: it seemed to me what bernie sanders try to do, the most damaging thing for sanders, that she is the rightful inheritor of barack obama for legacy, and things that he has written on twitter, the fining progressivism -- defining progressivism in a way that excludes president obama. do you think the clinton campaign understands they may be onto something here? margaret: i think they absolutely understand the potential power of it. the question is, is it a powerful tool ahead of the contest where there are heavily black voting populations, or a better, broader message in areas with working-class voters? they do seem to have assessed it should work to their advantage ahead of south carolina. the question -- and we will see after we see the results in south carolina -- is it a message that has legs beyond there? mark: once upon a time, people thought that hillary clinton could wrap this nomination up in february. what you think is the best case for hillary clinton going up into march

the notion that barack obama doesn't know what he i i doing. he knows exactlyhat he is doing. >> there it is. the memorized, 25 second speech. there it is. >> both rubio and trump took >> we wanted to replay your best lines from the debate saturday night. want to give you the opportunity. rather than repeating that about president obama why not discuss the charge lodged against you thbt you are eloquent but don't have the experience to be president. >> my experience is understood all. all over the website. i was the speaker of the florida house. imminent domain abuse stopped in florida because of me. despite the fact the democrats controlled the senate, i have accomplished things inhe senate, restrictions on hezbollah, the effort for the bailout, the va accountability. but the core out campaign is that statement. i am going to continue to say it. barack obama is deliberately carrying out a strategy to change america. he wants to redefine the country. one of the main reasons i am running. one of the reasonize feello good about our debate perform

this is the same argument made against barack obama in 2008. i will assemble a topnotch foreign policy team. and we will provide excellent and strong foreign policy for the people of the united states. we have got to learn the lessons of iraq. that its that the united states of america cannot do it alone. that we have to work in coalition, we have to work in coalition with major countries and with muslim countries whose troops will be on the ground. my main concern, terms of the mideast, is to make certain that the united states does not get involved in perpetual warfare in the quagmire of iraq and syria. in afghanistan. >> you have talked a lot about donations hillary clinton receives from service sector. in debate she called that an artful smear. what is your response to that? >> it is a fact. when in the last reporting period, her superpac received $25 million. $15 million from wall street. what is the smear. that is the fact. >> she says you can't point to a an opinion that she changed, can you? >> nobody who has a superpac, gets money, rep

barack obama doesn't know what he's doing. this notion that barack obama doesn't know what he's doing. anyone who believes that barack obama isn't doing what he's doing on purpose doesn't understand what we're dealing with here. >> reporter: during an all-out assault from chris christie. >> there it is the memorized 25 second speech. there it is, everybody. >> reporter: rubio's campaign said he excelled on other subjects such as foreign policy. >> terrorist nations. >> reporter: but his opponents are branding him an inexperienced robot. the #rubioglitch trending on social media. >> i think the whole race changed last night. because you know there was a march among some in the chattering class to anoint senator rubio. i think after last night that's over. >> reporter: hoping to gain ground, governors christie, jeb bush and john kasich touting executive experience. but it's donald trump who is still the front-runner here, by a wide margin. though his latest jabs at bush drew repeated boos. >> quiet. -- [ boos ] >> a lot of times

at one level it's like barack obama knows what he's doing. who's the strong man that you are arguing he doesn't know what he's doing. >> the context is marco rubio has been compared to barack obama. on the republican side that's been viewed as a liability. his opponents have used that as a slight. not as a source of any praise. what he does on the stump is try to say, barack obama has been successful at pushing a liberal agenda. he's been successful at changing this country to his view. we need a conservative in the white house like myself, essentially, who will achieve what barack obama has. >> if he were saying that, i would not have said what i have said. he's saying barack obama is undermining the institution. that's an impeachable offense. you don't say that about a sitting president. >> in this establishment lane you have voters i talked to since iowa who are trying to figure out, i'm not a cruz voter. i think donald trump's crazy. where am i suppose to go? no question they were with rubio before this debate. they may still be with rubi

obama being the liber liberal critic of barack obama. this shows why. remaining larger than the universe of voters who want a more liberal direction. we'll see when final numbers come in. that's what they're trying to drive up. >> interesting considering the fact barack obama and hillary clinton were adversaries eight years ago and talking to people at clinton events back in new hampshire and iowa, that a lot of people said that they were going for her because they supported barack obama, and they did agree with the idea that she was going to continue doing what he's doing. >> never thought you'd say hillary clinton is the barack obama candidate, but that's what it is here. >> absolutely, no way. >> the president did pick her to be secretary of state. >> he did. >> whatever the bad blood during the primary and caucus in 2008, that went away when he asked her to be secretary of state. i want to go back to tom foreman at caesar's palace in las vegas. one of the caucus sites going on. you told us a while ago, tom, crowded, messy. what are y

barack obama, himself, dreamed big ideas. who would have thought we'd have an affordable health care act if someone had not put it in their mind this country can do this? this is a great country. we can do anything we want to. the government can do anything that the government tends to do if they really want to do it. so to dream big is what this country's all about and i think that's what bernie sanders is saying. that's why he's so attracted to the millennials because so many folks understand and realize that the way we're doing business in this country is no longer working for them and they want someone to make a difference in their lives. >> because of his role, as you say, in helping to shape obamacare, so to speak, the health care act, he has been outspoken an opponent on some parts of it. he wants to change at least some parts of it. stay with me. we're going to talk a lot more. when we come right back -- i'll let you respond. will the race come down to a generation gap between clinton and sanders supporters? we'll be

set off a heated debate over if president barack obama should nominate a new justice with less than a year left in his term. mitch mcconnell has been very outspoken, saying the next president should appoint the man or woman who could sit on the bench for administrations to come. since the president's nominee has to be approved by the senate, there are swirling concerns republican senators could stall a confirmation for president barack obama's choice. even senator nelson is concerned that they could delay things. >> i think that's very sad. anything done is when the democrats and the republicans work together. >>reporter: senator nelson says the country can't afford to have a vacancy on the bench for more than a year. >> i want the process to work and to work now, because there's a lot at stake, in the u.s. supreme court. >>reporter: the democrat from florida has voted to confirm nominees from president barack obama and bush, he expects the verbal sparring between the parties to get nasty over this issue, even citing saturday night's republican debate as an example of just how ugly po

his point is barack obama wasn't too inexperienced for the job, barack obama has done everything he's done that's controversial intentionally. that's how he's trying to rebut the argument that a first-term senator is not the right one. >> nobody buys it, sorry, good try. nobody buys it. >> that's a dichbt fferent -- >> no, nobody buys it. nobody buys that that's responsive and he got caught doing exactly what i was saying he's been doing for the whole campaign. >> which reveals what us to us? >> he has no depth and no substance. that's what. he repeats canned lines over and over and over again. he does it all the time. in his town hall meetings. he does it in tv interviews. >> do you ever do that? >> listen, do i say some things the same time? you go to my town hall meetings, i almost never open the same way, almost never close the same way, my answers are different. absolutely. >> how about the people who say it's message discipline? >> how about the people who say it's rorobotic? i don't know. listen, if you like marco rubio anyone you like that. i tell you this, it's not way it wor

barack obama. i'm not sure where you are going, i want to make that clear. the reason i did it because i had applied -- i was a member of the white house press corps. i had a standing white house pass, went to the briefings every day. i got out of that for my own program, because i could ask questions. i thought i could expand that opportunity by getting a presidential unit -- press credential of the u.s. capitol. i applied, and i was told i had to appear before the full senate reporters accreditation because there were questions about whether or not i qualified. i was told because i gave my opinion -- actually first, i was turned down because i gave my opinion on my show. i may talk show host, of course i give my opinion. i pointed out there were others on the press corps already who i thought should be disqualified. so they gave me a hearing in front of the full accreditation committee. me.vote was 12-1 against al jazeera voted against me. fox news voted against me. c-span, i'mte, from proud to s

candidate is selling out barack obama. mark: right now, bernie sanders has money, message, and momentum. but the question, can mojo, the fourth one, go away if he stumbles marco rubio-style? could it? john: i think with all the success that sanders has had, and he came out of new hampshire on a huge high, i think there is greater pressure on him than on her. he has gotten to be a much better debater, but there are still questions. she is usually better when her back is against the wall. she is more natural than he is. he has to keep this momentum going, stay on offense. he is not naturally a candidate that is great on offense against her, because he does not -- he's got to do well. mark: i think they will ask some new topics. knowing them, i think it will bring up stuff that has not come up. hillary clinton, her experience is going to help her. it will be interesting to see if i'm right. tonight, he may get questions he will not have practiced for. it is interesting to see how he does. my fingertip senses that now, if he s

to vote for barack obama in large part. >> right. i mean, the first black potential president on the ballot in 2008. now we see even a greater, blacker electorate among the south carolina democrats than in 2008. >> the other part of the poll you were looking at, which is race relations, it might not be that much of a surprise given the tragedy we saw there. (t&háhp &hc% it. >> right. >> there have been a few tragedies in south carolina. >> a few, right. the big one that we remember, a white man going in and shooting up a black church. so perhaps it's not for those of us who don't live ÷here that much of a surprise. >> remember, both of these candidates have been campaigning on improving race relations. that's been a big thrust of the campaign in south carolina. so you're right, perhaps it's not terribly surprising when all the message is how to improve something that people would feel that race relations have gotten worse. >> it's also just in terms of differentiation, if you look at clinton and sanders ynd the messages that they w

barack obama was in a state like new hampshire, barack obama was winning the college-educated voters. he was winning the upper-income voters. he was losing with the noncollege voters and losing with the lower income voters. the significance when you move outside new hampshire, you think back to 2008. there were a lot of states as this race stretched through april and may and june, a lot of states where hillary clinton was blowing out barack obama. states that had high lower income blue collar white voter populations. pennsylvania, west virginia, kentucky, parts of ohio, appalachia, these were states where barack obama got blown out in many cases. these numbers are suggesting bernie sanders while he still has to make inroads, while he has challenges in a state like south carolina where he's going to need african-american support, this also suggests there are a lot of supports that were not in play for barack obama in 2008 that could be in play for bernie sanders. so we could be seeing a very different kind of coalition here being put together by bernie sanders. >> all right, thank you

and then i looked at barack obama's plan. barack obama's plan, which john kerry later described as unbelievably small. >> and concluded that that attack would not only not help the situation. it would make it actually wowrs. it would allow assad to stand up to the united states of america, survive a strike, stay in power, and actually strengthen his dprip. so it was a difficult decision to make and one we only had a few days to look at and make a decision on and i voted against barack obama's plan to use force and it was the right decision. i want to ask you a question-- dr. carson, you said you have had more 2:00 a.m. phone calls than anybody up on this stage. but when those 2:00 a.m. phone calls came, you operated on a foundation of all of that amazing medical work that you did, all of that learning. so if you were to be president, you wouldn't have the political foundation that hones those instincts when the 2:00 a.m. phone call comes. so isn't that a liability? >> no, it isn't. first of all, let me go back to your first q

barack obama doesn't know what he's doing. this notion that barack obama doesn't know what he's doing. anybody who doesn't know that he's doing what he's doing on purpose doesn't know what he's doing here. >> reporter: the all out assault by chris christie. his opponents are branding him an inexperienced robot. social media. changed last night. you know there was a march among some of the clash. >> reporter: hoping to gain ground governors christie, jeb bush, and john kasich pounding executive experience but it's still donald trump still leading by a wide margin after his latest jabs through repeated boos. described how he'd fight terrorist. >> i'd bring back waterboarding and i'd bring back a helluva lot worse. >> what's the worst? >> i'm not going to bring it up on this show. >>> the ground game in new hampshire intensified for the democrats as well with bernie sanders holding a lead. we get more on the democrats from nbc's kristen welker. >> reporter: secretary clinton taking a detour to a baptist church in largely african-

even including barack obama. this is somebody who knows everything about every voter in all of the 99 counties of iowa. he knows where you shop, what you do, who you're likely to vote for, whether you go to church every sunday or just twice a month. he is so data-driven. and that will in the end i believe help him if he is close to trump. >> one of the things, i think they have learned a lot of lessons from the barack obama campaign, which one thing broadly we should all recognize. before it was conventional wisdom, a senator could not win. now we have not only ted cruz doing well, but also senator sanders. i think it's because the senate has become a proving ground of sorts where people can show where they are on the positions and prove to voters where they stand. >> i guess ted cruz knows almost as much about us as google. >> more. >> probably so. >> but what i find fascinating about this is ted cruz is playing the game that barack obama did to a very large extent. he is running a terrific ground game. and trum

normally people drop out when they run out of cash and he has cracked the code as barack obama did on online fundraising. he's matching her dollar for dollar and some states he's outspending her. in some states he's open more offices than hillary clinton. so i guess i would disagree with sam in that i think hillary is still the favorite. >> i certainly -- she was a probative favorite several months ago, certainly at the beginning of 2015, she was polling the way favorites do, way up in the 60s at least against anyone. even in new hampshire she was way up in the 60s, bernie sanders was at 13. that looked prohibitive, but time changes those numbers for her. >> the money thing can't -- can't be under stated here or overstated i should say. when he won in new hampshire, one of the cleverer things he said is my opponent is going do a fundraiser in new york, i want do a fundraiser right now. why don't you go online and donate $27. i believe in the next 24 hours they raised $6 million. it's not what barack obama did, but it was close do that. >> he's ahead of obama. >> i'm talking about in a

took aim at president barack obama in south carolina tuesday night. moments after the commander in chief said this. >> i continue to believe mr. and the reason is because i have a lot of faith in the american people. >> you're lucky i did not run last time because you would have been a one term president. >> he commands double-digit lead in the palmetto state yesterday he and marco rubio best rival ted cruz for being dishonest. >> i've never seen a human being lie so much. >> he didn't tell the truth about ben carson iowa. >> reporter: the texas senator fired back. >> they don't respond on substance they just scream liar >> reporter: on the democratic side were clinton is trying to maintain a lead in south carolina. tuesday she and bernie sanders courted minority voters. >> it's not enough for your economic plan to be break up the bank >> you need a plan to address the generations of underinvestment and neglect. >> we need to provide substantial help. >> reporter: democrats hold their primary in south carolina one week from saturday.>>> we have contin

in the face of all these dangers, what is barack o -- what is barack obama doing to our military? he is gutting our military. he is the worst when it comes to this and i will explain to you why. our army will soon be the smallest it has been since the end of world war ii. our navy will soon be the smallest in 100 years and our air force will soon have the oldest airplanes it has had in our history. to me what is unacceptable is when we have people running for voted for budgets that brag about cutting defense spending even more, this is unacceptable. providing for the national defense is the most important job the federal government does. it is the reason why we have a federal government. these cuts are unfair to our men and women in uniform. we are still asking them to put their lives on the line's and confront danger. some of them have to go out and buy their own equipment because what they are being given is not good enough. president, we are not cutting defense spending. we are rebuilding the u.s. military because the world is a safer and better place when america is the strong

then senator barack obama won by 28 points. that was considered a landslide. she will have a much bigger landslide tonight in south carolina over bernie sanders. she just delivered her remarks. and there was a not so veiled reference to donald trump. she said despite what you hear, we don't need to make america great again. america has never stopped being great. but we do need to make america whole again. jake tapper, not so subtle in terms of a reference to donald trump. and she also at the very end she cited first corinthians. not one corinthians. >> right. donald trump having once said two corinthians instead of second corinthians. this is the first time i've heard her talk about corporate responsibility. it's a way of talking about the business world that is different than bernie sanders. it's a way of offering a general election pitch, really. i mean, she is talking about holding businesses accountable. but it's not an antibusiness message. i suspect in the days and weeks to come, we're going to hear more of hillary clinton the general election candidate

let's dispel with this fiction that barack obama doesn't know what he's doing. let's dispel with the facts. this notion that barack obama doesn't know what he's doing is just not true -- >> there it is. >> anyone who believes barack obama isn't doing what he is doing on purpose doesn't understand what we're dealing with here. this is a president -- this is a president who is trying to change this country. >> here with me is howard fineman from the huffington post thank you three. was it emotional? it wasn't mental. why would he repeat himself over and over again in the most verbatim way knowing it's the same audience? >> i think marco rubio, who had a chance given his past recent days' performance of moving up in the polls, he had a chance here tonight. basically he blew it. he was rattled by the attacks by chris christie. he was rattled by chris christie, rattled by the attacks. so he went to a prepared line about barack obama that actually had nothing to do with the conversation. and that played right into chris christie's attack, which then got rubio to say i

after seven years of barack obama, this is not a time for patience. this is a time for urgent action. because if we get this election wrong, there may be no turning around for america. >> let's get the job done! >> absolutely. absolutely. so what will it take to get the job done? well, first what it will take is we must, at the end of this process, bring this party and movement together. we can't win if we don't come together. it doesn't mean we will agree on everything. it does not. but we must unify and come together. when i'm nominee, i will bring the party and conservative movement together. i will unify us so we can win. but that alone will not be enough. we need to go out and convince more people to become conservatives than we have right now. and we're going to do that when i'm nominee. we are going to go to the people who are living the way that i grew up. my father was a bartender. my mother was a cash eer. a made. a stock clerk at kmart. they were not rich. they were not wealthy. they were not influential, not politically connected but they

barack obama, i actually respect that barack obama's committed to his ideas. i think his ideas are profoundly harmful to this country. have done enormous damage. he's committed. barack obama will crawl over broken glass with a knife between his teeth and the reason we keep getting our lunch eaten is republican leadership walks in, surrenders before they say good morning. and that doesn't work. >> they did that on health care, executive amnesty. >> yep. >> and i think that's -- that goes back to the original point. i think that's why we are where we are today and seems it's a battle of insurgents. you're making the case you're the insurgent that can get the job done as a conservative. and i guess you would say that donald trump is probably more of a populist? >> i would say it a little differently. donald trump is adopting the rhetoric of a populist. donald trump, like hillary clinton, is a rich new york liberal. >> that's about the worst thing you can say to a republican primary candidate. >> sean, thankfully you're a rich new york conservative who's soon goin
