Transcripts For CNNW The Situation Room With Wolf Blitzer 20120123

saying -- bring it on. senator rand paul refusing a pat-down at an airport security checkpoint after setting off an alarm on a body scanner. he's joining us live this hour. he'll tell us what happened. also, a key u.s. supreme court ruling on electronic surveillance. the justices agree that police need a warrant to plant a gps device on a suspect's car but they don't agree on why. i'm wolf blitzer and you're in "the situation room." what a day in politics. mitt romney is going all out as he goes after newt gingrich with a series of very bitter attacks. the new national poll out today may show why. the two rivals are in a statistical tie. the gallup daily tracking poll shows romney at 29% nationwide, down nine points in just over a week. gingrich is at 28%, double his strength in the last poll a week ago. it's a dead heat, just a week and change before the florida primary. let's bring in cnn jim acosta. he's in tampa and watching the battle for florida. >> it shouldn't be. got the best weather around. >> reporter: licking his wounds after south carolina, mitt romney has the klaas out in florida. >> we can see in october surprise a day from newt gingrich. >> reporter: and he's tearing into newt gingrich with a vengeance. >> while florida families lost everything in the housing crisis, newt gingrich cashed in. >> reporter: the romney campaign released a new tv ad slamming the big money gingrich made advising freddie mac, a smart play in one of the hardest-hit states in the housing crisis. romney called on gingrich to release documents detailing his work and it would the speaker was lobbying on half of the agency, a charge gingrich denies. >> if you're working for a company and getting paid for a company through one of your many entities and you're speaking with congressmen in a way that would help that company, that's lobbying. if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a duck. >> reporter: gingrich all but told cnn romney is lying. >> i understand why both mccain and huckaby said he was dishonest. >> reporter: a theme he carried into this afternoon's event. >> if you've been campaigning for six years and you begin to see it slip away, you get desperate. and when you get desperate you say almost anything. it used to be pious bologna but now its desperate bologna. >> reporter: winning the florida is tough. evangelicals and the 50-delegate prize is winner take all. romney has a leg-up in the battle of the airwaves spending more than $2 million in the state with a pro romney super pac and their getted ready ahead of rick santorum putting it this way. >> they may have a little thing that says for mature audiences only, because it's going to be a blood bath. >> reporter: at the same event the rhetoric was getting out of hand. >> i never refer to obama as president obama because legally he is not. he constantly says that our constitution is passe and he toldly ignores it as you know and he does what he darn well pleases. he's an devout muslim. >> i'm doing my best to trying to get him out. >> everyone knows the president is not an avowed muslim. we should point out, jim acosta reporting for us. much more on the world of politics, the presidential contest coming up. another important story we're following right now. senator rand paul of kentucky set often an alarm at an airport body scanner today and then had to leave the security checkpoint when he refused a pat-down. both sides seem to agree on that much but there's a bit of a history between the senator and the tsa and his father, the republican presidential candidate, congressman ron paul, is furious about all of this. senator rand paul is joining us now live from capitol hill. senator, thanks very much for coming in. i know you caught a later flight and you just got to washington. appreciate the hustle getting to our location up on capitol hill. so walk us through, senator. what happened today when you showed up at the airport? >> you know, i've been flying pretty frequently for the past year since i was elected and really vpt had any trouble with the tsa. most of the local people have been friendly, if not, outright supportive. but today i went through the scanner and it went off and i just requested that i show them my leg, which i did, or that i get to go back through the scanner again. but they wouldn't let me go through the scanner and they insisted on a pat-down search and i just didn't think that that was appropriate. i thought that, really, when i interviewed director pistole of the tsa a couple of months ago he talked about that we were letting people go back through the screener so they didn't have to get pat-downs. but the other thing i learned today is, the screener is not going off because it detects something. the screener is part of a random pat-down process where people are getting randomly pat-down but the they think the screener is going off because it defected something. i didn't realize that until today. the screener goes off one time and they let me go through it an hour later and the screener doesn't go off. that's because i must have been part of a random pat-down but wasn't told that initially. >> we checked, you had mentioned that earlier and we went to the tsa and asked them -- are there now random alerts that simply go off without any evidence that there's a problem and they issued a statement saying, no. we said, can the -- tsa trigger the machine to indicate there's an alarm? no. and then the other question was -- do the machines have alarms that randomly go off to indicate that there is an object on a person when there is no object on a person, the tsa insists the answer is "no," who says there's a random alert? >> two people from the tsa, two separate people and i don't want to name their names at this point. but two separate people told me that there are random bells and whistles going off in the screening process. that the local screeners are not aware of but are part of random pat-downs. they admit that there are random pat-downs but i believe they're coming from the machine. otherwise we've got machines that just aren't very good because why are they setting off a signal one time and not setting off the signal the next time? so it tells me that either the machines are inadequate or they're not telling us the whole story. but my understanding from two different tsa agents is -- yes, there are random bells going off in the screening machines, that don't indicate something on your body, but indicate you've been selected for a random pat-down. >> i want to show our viewers a video of what happens as these body image scanners. you see people waiting in line over there as they go through they obviously have to raise their hands and they have to stay still for a few seconds and we'll continue showing the video. what's the big deal, senator, about then going through a pat-down and letting somebody touch the back of your leg to make sure there's nothing there? >> i think that, you know, we've seen a lot of instances of very invasive searches. an 88-year-old woman being asked to take an adult diaper off. termly ill people being put through invasive body searches. 6-year-old girls having tsa agents put their hands inside their pants. 8-month-old babies having their diapers taken off. is it too much to ask to have a little dignity when you travel and shouldn't an adult be allowed to get back in line and go through the scanner? i think that's not too much to ask and i think we've gone overboard. i don't want feel more safe. i feel that our dignity is being compromised but i don't feel more safe. i would rather see selective risk-assessments done on people who are international travel and people who have ties to groups that may be terrorists. but the regular ordinary citizens don't need to be put through this, particularly the frequent travelers. >> i remember and we have the clip, when you were questioning the head of the tsa in a senate homeland security committee and a subcommit back in november. here's the clip. >> 99.9% of us are not terrorists. let us go back to the machine rather than get a pat-down and you'll get rid of a lot of the anger and animosity towards the tsa and towards what you're doing and give us a little more dignity when we travel. >> obviously this has been on your mind for a long time. this is not a new occurrence that just came out of the blue today. >> well, i spoke with secretary or director pistole today and i asked him for a couple of things. one, let adults go back to the scan fer they choose to do that, versus an invasive body search. or give someone discretion. in the nashville airport today, no one had the discretion to say, hello, there. i've seen you four times. i see you come through here every week and i'm not asking for special privileges because of the office i hold, i would expect the same thing for any flea kwenlt traveler. if wolf blitzer came through, where are you going? back to cnn in atlanta. i have to be on the air tonight. that would be enough for me not to do a full body pat-down if you wanted to step back through the screener. i think we ought to use some common sense and not think that everybody is a terrorist. >> what did mr. pistole say to you? >> he indicates that there's a lot of programs out there and they're trying to make it better. i don't attribute bad motivation to him. i think he probably is trying but my point back to him is -- after ten years, why is there not a frequent flyer program? why is there not a trusted-traveler program. why, for example, my brother-in-law went to the air force academy and he's on three planes a week. why is he still going through invasive seshlgs? why couldn't he submit to a background check and not have to go through all these invasive searches? i think and contend that wire wasting time on people who are not the enemy and meanwhile, the enemy could be slipping through because they spent an hour and a half with me and you know what they did in the end? they let me walk back through the screener and the screener didn't show anything the second time which makes me suspicious that they are doing random searches based on artificially allowing the machine to go off. >> i agree with you there. there should be a trusted-traveler program. they have six pilot programs that we checked on. at certain terminals not all, in atlanta, dallas, detroit, miami, las vegas and los angeles. but i guess the question is -- what's taking so long to have this done nationwide? >> the only thing i can imagine is government doesn't do many things very well. but it also might be a reason why that security would have been better had we privatized it and sent it out to private agencies. i would also feel more comfortable giving my private information to a private security firm because i think they do a little better job with not losing their laptop computers and not letting my information get out on the web. so i think really, privatization would be a better route to go. there are still some airports that do have private tsa but president obama has opposed that and really, pushed toward, you know, there been just a government agency and no private security. >> i'll leave you with two statements and we'll wrap it up from the tsa they released this after the incident with you today. when an irregularity is found in the tsa screening process it must be resolved prior to allowing a passenger to proceed to the secure area of the airport. passengers that refuse to complete the screening process cannot be granted access to the secure area in order to ensure the safety of others traveling. that statement from the tsa and your dad, congressman ron paul, the presidential candidate issued this very tough statement. he said, quote, the police state in this country is growing out of control. one o'o the ultimate embodiments of this is the tsa that gropes and grabs our children, seniors and will you haved ones and neighbors with disabilities. the tsa does all of this while doing nothing to keep us safe. that's a very strong statement from your father. are you ready to go as far as he does? >> what i would say is they need the discretion to be allowed, for example, if they thought something was on my knee and i pulled up my pants leg and showed them my knee and showed them underneath my socks that there was nothing there and agreed to go back through the scanner, most reasonable people would think, that's reasonable. he's not refusing to comply, he just doesn't want to be patted down. he travels every week through the airport and would like just to go back through the scanner and i think we need better scanners or admit we're doing random pat-downs because of false beeps from the scanner and that's something i think they need to own up to. because go of them today told me that is happening. >> and i assume you'll agree with me. no one is blaming the officers, those people that were working at the airport. they're doing their job and they have their requirements. it's the higher-ups you're criticizing for not giving them the discretion to deal with, for example, someone like you? >> absolutely. as i've gone through the nashville airport for a year the tsa agents have been nice, kind, supportive, friendly, but they're stuck. they're stuck with the gentleman that wouldn't let me go through walk it's not his fault but he has no discretion. then he called his manager who had no discretion who called his manager who an hour and a half later let me walk back through the screener and the screener didn't go off this time which really makes me think the screeners aren't very accurate if they go off one time and don't go off the next time. >> we're going to invite the tsa administrator, john pistole to come here in "the situation room" and continue this conversation. because i know as a frequent flyer myself, there's a lot of frustrations and we don't blame the individuals dealing at the airports with security, they're doing their jobs. but there's a lot of frustration out there and we totally understand what you went through. senator, as usual, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> it's an extraordinary turn-around form newt gingrich. how is newt gingrich doing it? jooef cafferty taking a closer look at newt gingrich's latest comeback. and the president will have a huge audience for tomorrow night's state of the union address. how can he make the most of it? donna brazil and mary matalin are standing by live for a strategy session. and today's gps technology has amazing capabilities but a u.s. supreme court ruling puts police on notice. jack cafferty is here. >> wolf, newt gingrich has risen from the dead for the second time in this roller coaster ride that's become the republican nominating battle. with his decisive double-digit win in south carolina he heads to florida a proverbial juggernaut with a full head of steam and south carolina has the distinction of picking every republican nominee since ronald reagan in 1980 and what gingrich did is nothing short of amazing and also a bit puzzling. a piece in politico suggests that the surging gingrich has mastered the art of debate and disguise. no question about gingrich's debate performance, outstanding. in the free media he gets as a result, they have been key to his success thus far. last week, his answer about food stamps and his subsequent beating up on the news media helped him win over south carolina conservatives. as for the disguise part, gingrich uses his master debate skills to camouflage his weaknesses as a candidate. the three wives, leaving the first two while they were ill. his erratic leadership, et cetera. one ex-wife's claim that gingrich wanted an opened marriage might have done him in but in the end she didn't lay a glove on him. the voters simply yawned. mitt romney has to be tearing hills hair out it wasn't supposed to be this way. with much less money and a smaller organization, gingrich is threatening to take away romney's crown once again. a stunning comeback for a candidate sent off to the political graveyard the first time. remember last summer? his staff quit when he went on a mediterranean cruise and reports surfaced of his million dollar line of credit at tiffanys but gingrich roared back to life in december shooting to the top of the polls before collapsing ahead of the iowa caucuses. he just won't go away. here's the question -- what is the secret to newt gingrich's success? go to cnbc cnbc/cafferty file and go to my blog. pretty remarkable, wolf. >> was it a million dollar line of credit or half a million dollar line of credit? >> i don't know. >> i don't know if it really makes that much difference. >> check. >> more than i have and i don't shop at tiffanys. >> mack it was a million. >> maybe it was half a million. >> never mind. thanks, jack. the presidential election is shaping up to be the most expensive ever. who is bank rolling it? could the outcome be determined by the so-called political action committees that are on steroids, the super pacs. we're looking into the super pacs and learn what can they are, where their money comes from and how much impact they'll really do have. let bring or n our congressional correspondent, kate baldwin who has been doing a lot of reporting. the bottom line, they're very powerful? >> they are. it's a very tangled web of election spending, wolf, you know that people in groups, supporting both parties, have exploited the complex system that's election spending, for decades. but a landmark supreme court ruling two years ago, almost to the day, changed the landscape for money and politics and what we're seeing now may only be the beginning. >> romney's objective was never a focus on creating jooibs. >> newt attacks because he has more baggage than the airlines. >> reporter: the ads are everywhere. their source? a new breed of, ad commit called the super pac. >> this is the first presidential election where we're watching the creatures taking any amount of money from just about any entity or individual and spend it any way they want as long as they're independent of the candidate. >> reporter: and, boy, are they spending. some $34 million so far in the 2012 race. according to the nonpartisan center for responsive politics. there are almost 300 super pacs currently registered. and much of the explosion can be traced back here to the supreme court, with the landmark citizens united decision two years ago. the justices eased prior restrictions on federal election spending by outside groups allowing corporations, unions and advocacy groups to spend unlimited amounts of cash to influence an election. >> five more conservative members in the majority said -- this is an easy case. this is elections. it's why we have free speech. therefore, this is constitutionally protected. >> reporter: the ruling put corporations and unions on equal footing with individuals who have, in reality, been able to spend their own personal fortunes advocating for campaigns for decades. for example, newt gingrich supporter, sheldon addleson and billionaire george soros but previously the fortune had to be spent by the individual directly not through a group like traditional election committees. experts dispute the direct impact of the decision and agree it created an environment ripe for historic spending in elections. >> it's always been true in campaigns that money is like water. it will leak and find the cracks and crevices and find ways to evade restrictions. but citizens united on some level, just blew a hole in the wall and said, come on through. the constitution gives you this right. >> reporter: some rules still do apply. super pacs must disclose their donors and cannot coordinate with a candidate or campaign. but outspoken critics of the ruling call it one of the worst decisions in the court's history. >> now that the system under which we operate which leads to this kind of campaigning and will lead to corruption and scandals, i guarantee it. when you have that much money, washing around campaigns, there will be scandals. >> reporter: another critic? president obama himself. >> i don't think american elections should be bank rolled by america's most powerful interests. or worse, by foreign entities. >> reporter: but that hadn't stopped his supporters. former white house deputy press secretary bill burton heads up a super pac backing the president. >> it was my view when i left the white house that the president shouldn't have to go -- shouldn't will left undefended against all these attacks coming in from the outside. there's going to be a lot of money in this race, make no mistake. >> reporter: bottom line, like it or not, huge spending by outside independent groups is the new name of the game in politics and every candidate in this presidential race has close supporters ready to play that game through a super pac. the super pacs are outspending the official campaigns and the official candidates by a large measure. that's just -- this is just the beginning. >> this is just the primaries. wait until the general election campaign because we ain't seen nothing kbret. >> couldn't say it better myself. mitt romney is all too familiar with bouncing back from political losses. will his second-place finish in south carolina be too much to recover from? donna brazile and bhair mat lma are standing by live. i'm woman blitzer in washington. here's some of the stories we're working on for our next hour. europe and the united states taking serious new steps to cripple iran's economy, will it work? and more deadly violence in syria. c nchlt nchnn takes you into th the city. stand by. you're in "the situation room." a south carolina loss to a surging newt gingrich, mitts going on the attack and this time, it's getting personal. listen to mitt romney slam newt gingrich in florida today. >> he's gone from pillar to post almost like a pin ball machine. from item to item in a way which is highly erratic and does not suggest a stable, thoughtful course which is normally associated with leadership. the speaker was very animated about my releasing tax records. i am. i think it's an appropriate observation that people should know if there's going to be an october surprise and in the case of the speaker he has some records which could represent an october surprise. we could see an october surprise a day from newt gingrich. >> strong words from mitt romney. let's discuss in our strategy session, joining us our cnn political contributors. donna brazile and mary matalin. can romney stop gingrich's going into florida? >> he can. i don't think it's the best approach, it's necessary but insufficient. newt doesn't have to answer personal attacks. what is he going to say? i'm going to debate an october surprise? where romney made a good hit on newt was on the attacking the free enterprise and attacking bain and capitalism and his fannie mae and freddie mac stuff. it's more less about newt and his continued inability to make conservatism independents who are obsessed with fiscal conservatism confident in his message. he did a much better job saturday night and yesterday on television but he's got to do both the right hits on newt and be more convincing in his conservatism. >> donna, later in the day newt gingrich responded to the new and much more assertive mitt romney by saying this -- >> i've been told by a variety of people that governor romney has been saying unkind things. i'd prefer, personally, not to believe it. but on the other hand, if you've been campaigning for six years and you begin to see it slip away, you get desperate. and when you get desperate you say almost anything. >> dana, how should newt gingrich respond to this new more forceful mitt romney? >> i thought that was excellent. first of all, let me say that i agree with everything that mary said. mitt romney's problem is mitt romney. it's the same problem he faced in 2008. he has to settle on, you know, the mitt romney that he wants people to know, like and get to understand. the conservative base, they're looking for a fighter. they're not looking for somebody who will just walk into the arena and waffle one day and not deliver a very strong message. so the reason why newt gingrich is now leading in delegates and he's going to regain some of the momentum he lost over the last couple of weeks is because conservative voters are looking for somebody to get into the arena and do what newt gingrich said he would do which is to deliver the tax to barack obama. mitt romney now has the final message, stick with it and hope to god that newt gingrich don't catch fire again tonight in the debate. and then, you know, light a fire in florida. >> guys, stand by. we'll continue this. we have a lot more to discuss, including some other rhetoric that's going on. smack dab right in the middle of the heated republican race for the white house. president obama will give his own state of the union address tomorrow night. what will his message be and how can he leverage the timing to work in his favor? stand by, you're in "the situation room." o0 c1 2 o0 [ beep ] [ man ] you have one new message.

president obama takes the spotlight tomorrow night when he delivers his annual state of the union address before a joint session of congress. it's a chance to steal some thunder from the republican white house hopefuls and to make an impact with congress and, indeed, the nation. our chief white house correspondent jessica yellin is joining us now. jessica, i know you've been reporting on the. what's the thrust of this president's message tomorrow night? >> wolf, democratic sources tell me the president is going to hit hard on the theme you heard from him in his speech in kansas on income inequality. he said this is a make-or-break in a moment for the middle class and it's the government's role to ensure that everyone, in his words, gets a fair shake in society. the way the democratic aides say they see that speech, it was his vision for the government's role and this state of the union will be his blueprint for correcting the problems. and so, some of the specific proposals i'm told to lay out, at least according to the draft of the state of the union include the following. he will lay out some tax incentives for companies that, quote, insource jobs, a phrase we've heard him use, meaning bringing them back to the united states if they've been out of the u.s. proposed new incentives that build skills for workers and students through job training here in the u.s. the idea there is this could help build more manufacturing growth in the u.s. and then, proposed reforming tax rates. specifically, letting tax cuts -- the bush tax cuts expire and renewing his call for the buffett rule. that means making sure that millionaires pay a higher tax rate than people in the middle class. and those are just some of the proposals i'm told are in the current draft of the state of the union. wolf? >> coverage will begin at 8:00 p.m. eastern tomorrow night. the state of the union address, always exciting. thank you very much, jessica, for that. we'll bring back our cnn political contributeors and donna brazile and republican strategists mary matalin. how political should the president be tomorrow night given the fact he's running for election in this season? >> most americans know he's running. but i hope he doesn't just talk to congress. their approval rating is low. i would talk to directly to the american people. i would remind them as bill clinton did in 1996, the american dream needs to be a reality for all americans who are willing to work for it. i would even take a chapter out of president reagan's book from 1984, at presidential election season where he said, let's prove to the american people that we're americans first and put aside our party. i would talk to the hopes and aspirations of the american people and to also signal to our allies that america is strong and america will defend itself. so i think he has a big job tomorrow night and i would go beyond the hill and directly to the american people. >> i know he's not going to mention any of the republican candidates names or even get close to anything like that. should there be some references, mary, to the differences, the basic bottom line differences that he envisions for the united states as opposed to his republican challengers? >> well, in tone, it should comport with exactly what donna said. he is the president and it is the state of the union. we all know it's really about the state of his campaign but without mentioning names, according to jessica's reporting there, if he's going to talk about income inequality he's going right to the heart of this campaign. and these issues. and the big picture here. which is equality of opportunity versus equality of outcome. what's the role and scope of government? and the programs that jessica named have been failures. job training programs are 70 of them. the buffett rule is worse than a bandaid. the tax policies we've already won that fight. so he is implicitly, if not directly, going to the heart of the campaign but he should keep a tone that purports to speak to all americans. >> what we're going to do tomorrow, donna -- and i wonder if you want to weigh in now -- we'll look at his speech last year, the specific commitments he made and the promises he made and see how he did in terms of delivering a lot of those promises. bottom line, what do you think. did he deliver from awhat he promised a year ago? >> as you know, when he delivered that speech, he had -- he had no inclination that the tea party would take control of congress. but, look, i'm not going to get into a -- what i call a -- let's do a fight with the republicans on capitol hill. the president, as mary said, he's the president of the united states of america this is an opportunity to project america's strength. and to remind the american people that our best days are ahead and his policies are working. the economy is turning around. jobs are coming back. and now he has to tell the american people, we're going to make sure that the american dream is available to all of its citizens. >> donna and-mile-an-hour, thanks very much. you'll be with us, of course, tomorrow for our special coverage of the president's state of the union address. it all begins tomorrow evening, live here on cnn and our coverage begins at 8:00 p.m. eastern. today's gps technology, a u.s. supreme court ruling puts police on know us the how they can use the technology. jeffrey toobin, the north on the supreme court, is next. >> and we're inside syria right now, in fact, at the very epicenter of the latest violence. that's coming up in our next hour. in america, we believe in a future that is better than today. since 1894, ameriprise financial has been working hard for their clients' futures. never taking a bailout. helping generations achieve dreams. buy homes. put their kids through college. retire how they want to. ameriprise. the strength of america's largest financial planning company. the heart of 10,000 advisors working with you, one-to-one. together, for your future. ♪ an important ruling by the united states supreme court today. if police want to secretly monitor a suspect's movements by planting a gps device on a car they need to get a search warrant. the justices ruled unanimously on that but they don't necessarily agree on all the reasons why. our brian todd demonstrates the extraordinary power of today's gps technology. >> basically the frame of the car, or the truck that we're here with. >> reporter: i recently tested a gps tracker on our cnn vehicle with veteran private investigator knick o'connell. now mike will show you how so fist kated this device is. he'll track me from my office as i get to the car and drive away. i got mike on the phone here. he follows me at every turn while i question him on speakerphone. how far can you track me on this thing, mike? >> i can track you throughout the country with this device. also, if you're to get on some sort of boat or yacht and went to an island, it would continue to track you. >> reporter: for how long can you track someone on this device. >> it has a life better of about two weeks until i have to recharge it. >> amazing stuff. let's bring in our senior legal analyst jeffrey toobin. jeff, when the constitution was written no one ever imagined gps technology. but those words in the constitution have to be applied today and the justices did it in this decision? >> absolutely. unreasonable searches and seizures was the term they used in the 18th century and now they had to figure out what that means for gps. interestingly, unanimously the court agreed you needed a warrant but the court split 5-4 about what the the reasons were. justice scalia said, this is like trespassing. sticking this gps on the car is like trespassing on someone's property. justice ilito said we all have a reasonable expectation of privacy in our cars and in order to honor that reasonable expectation of privacy, you need to get a warrant. and so that's the division. we can be sure that they'll be returning to this subject again. >> did you just say that two of the conservative justices disagreed on this reasoning? >> yes. very unusual in that respect. justice scalia was with the other conservatives and justiaa three other lil liberals. ginsburg, b richlt ier and kagan. >> it says in certain issues, there are not the intense political disagreements that we see in cases like citizens united or abortion or affirmative action. here in new technology, they'll really all are feeling their way. they're trying to figure out what it means. this is come up in file sharing on the internet. how does that affect copyright. those kinds of issues, gps, they tend not to have the intense political divisions that the others do. they're all trying to figure it out. >> jeffrey toobin, author of the bestseller "the nine" about the supreme court justices and getting ready for a new bestseller coming out in september "the oath." we'll discuss that later. >> thanks, wolf. >> we're all looking forward it to and hope it's as least as good at "the nine" if not better. >> i hope so. brand new video from the wrecked italian cruise ship showing many passengers being evacuated. the latest on the tragedy coming up. and powerful storms striking the south. cnn is now on the ground in alabama with an incredible story of survival. we'll take you there in a moment for a report you don't want to miss. we're monitoring some of the other top stories in "the situation room" including the latest on the wrecked italian cruise ship. rihanna, what do you have? >> mr grim news. two more bodies have been recovered from the costa concordia bringing the confirmed number of victims to 15. and 17 people are still missing. rescue workers are also pumping fuel from the ship to minimize any environmental damage and removing that fuel will take about a month. it looks like supreme court justice elena kagan will take part in a major health care ruling after all. the other, eight justices have turned aside a motion from a group that wanted kagan to recuse flers the late-march oral arguments but the ruling will decide the konsality of president obama's health care law. kagan was solicitor general in the obama administration when the law was enacted. and comedian tracy morgan is being treated at a hospital in utah after falling ill during the sundance film festival. his rep says a combination of altitude and diabetes. the hospital said no drugs were found in his system and he suffers from diabetes and he had a kidney transplant in 2010. >> the altitude is high and he has serious issues. we hope he has a very speedy recovery. thanks. jack cafferty is asking, what ask the secret to newt gingrich's success?

you asked about newt's line of credit at tiffany. >> what was it? a half million or a million. >> we did some checking and it's a million dollars. he had a second line of credit at tiffany's from as much as $1 million, from his campaign so there you go. the question this hour is -- what's the see credit to newt gingrich's success? he's lightened it up all of a sudden. emmet from mobile, alabama, the secret to his success is simple. the unlike the other republican presidential candidates, he has bothered to learn something about history and about science. his campaign is not based on mindless slogans been on facts. if he's not the gop's nominee this independent shall hold my nose and vote for obama. bud in kansas city, it's political amnesia. anyone that drops off the political radar screen for a few years can be reborn without the burden of the past. no one remembers the erratic, abrasive and wholly unlikable previous newt. they'll have a battle with that if gingrich wins the nomination with gop is finished and we have -- he's a modern-day snake oil salesmen and there are far too many of those that will buy his feel-good potion not understanding that the hangover will be crippling. bob no florida -- newt is an intelligent man and addresses questions directly and he's probably the best person to look at national and international situations with an ability to see the whole picture. and thin make a decision and then use history and hills advisers to bring in the correct solution. jen in washington writes -- the secret to his success is that his party doesn't trust rom knee to be radical enough and newt has shown he's as radical as they come. he knows all the right buzz words to use and he also attacks the media at every debate which the crowd loves and then the next day shows up on every news channel he can get on. and rick in virginia -- 'how the hell do i know why 23450u9 is having success. i'm as baffled as you are. if you want to read more, go to my blog on cnbc cnbc/cafferty file or through our post on the situation room facebook page. have you ever had a million dollar line of credit anywhere? >> no, not at tiffanys, i don't think so. let me ask you a quick question. i'm moderating the cnn debate thursday night in 1y50irks, florida. you got any advice for me? these final four candidates are going to be up on the stage. >> that would be like a kid in music class in the second grade. hell no, you're the malser of this stuff. go get him. >> you're way too nice, jooek cafferty. thank you. to our viewers, you're in "the situation room." happening now, an unprecedented effort to stop iran in its nuclear tracks and the united states and its allies potentially close to choking off the country's financial system. why it could mean more pain for all of us at the pump. stand by. also, cnn ask at the epicenter of killings and gunfire in syria where fear is the new reality. and the man newt gingrich loves to use against president obama, who exactly is sol olinsky. we welcome our viewers from the united states and around the world. breaking news, political headlines and jeanne moos all straight ahead. i'm wolf blitzer and you're in "the situation room." this just coming in, you're looking at new video of a neighborhood destroyed, destroyed in jefferson county, alabama. part of shock and horror after a series of mons strous storms ripped through the area across the southeast. i should say, as well, at least two people are dead. another 100 injured. more than 200 homes were simply ripped apart. that number expected to go up as the day goes on. those who marrowly escaped the disaster are simply happy to be alive. >> we made it just in the nick of time. the good lord blessed us. we lost our house but at least we have -- i'm sorry -- we got our family -- and that's all that matters right now. >> cnn meteorologist reynolds wolf is joining news clay, alabama and he's right in the middle of the devastation. reynolds, set the scene for us. this is horrific! >> it is hard to believe, wolf. this is the second time in less than a year we've had a deadly tornado incident in the state of alabama. hast last year we had parts of the area in tuscaloosa and some west of birmingham were devastated. this is northeast of birmingham here in clay where we have the issue. the george brook community. this neighborhood was a place where its residents had no other concerns 24 hours ago other than watching the nfc and afc championship games. they had light rain but there was never a problem at all. everything went down at about 3:45 to 4:00 a.m. last night and early-morning hours we had the devastation. you can see plain as day some of it in the foreground. we surveyed the damage up close moments ago and this is what we found. the view down here is just mind boggling. you look all around and there's wrackage and debris all over the place. it's hard to believe that anyone could possibly live through this tornado but, in fact, someone did. a family right over here certainly lived through it. this is royor. thanks for spending time with us. >> no problem. >> how long have you lived here? >> roughly, eight and a half or nine years. >> your son on your wife? >> yes. >> what time did the tornado strike your house last night? >> it started about 4 clonl 15 or 4:30, roughly around that time and all i could hear was like the thunderstorms starting and churning and power flickering off and on and what triggered me to wake up was the power kept going on and off and the baby monitor kept making the staticy noise and i got up but didn't pay too much attention when the sirens started, all the power went out and my son started crying for his mom. i ran down the hallway to get him and by that time while i was picking him up i could hear the rum bling started. my wife thought it was a heavy wind and she was telling me and my son to come back to bed. so i was telling her, no. we're going into the bathroom to get in the tub. so by that time when she's coming down the hallway i grab her hand and drag her into the bathroom and as soon as a closed the door, i couldn't get in the tub fast enough. it hit. and by that time i was just squeezing both of them felt like i was going to smother them but i couldn't squeeze hard enough. i could feel the wind just pulling me like it was trying to suck me off of them so i just continued to squeeze and after that, i think it was about over when the roof came off and that's when all of the water came in and everything just started to cave in. >> one silver lining to the story, wolf, is there was ample warning in this neighborhood and most people had to up an hour of advanced warning hand there were some tornado sirens in the area so people knew what was coming. if there was going to be the potential of tornados. one thing that's amazing, if you look behind me see the difference of one side of the small valley where homes are devastated. if you veer over here to the right, mike can show you homeless that are basically, untouched. and in perfect shape. if we drop down a little bit you'll notice a line of cars coming up the street and mike, swing around and follow me and we can show the viewers turning in across america, the reason why we're having the holdup is right here in front of us. you can see the power company restoring the power on this stretch. this is a scene that's played all over parts of central alabama. seven different counties, extreme damage, lot of back roads and side streets still completely covered with a lot of trees and powerlines and telephone poles. it's going to take a while for the cleanup but they managed to have a much better handle on it by the time they get to tomorrow and certainly later this week. >> i'll show the viewers some of those aerial pictures. it's so devastating to see it. how wide of an area did these tornados devastate and the point you make about only a few blocks away, the houses seem to be just find. look at these amazing, amazing aerial shots. this whole area, simply leveled, destroyed! >> it really is. when you think about it, these tornados can be -- they vary. they can take place anywhere on the planet but more likely in the united states than any other spot and they've been very frequent in the state of alabama obviously this past year. europe talking about the whip. sometimes you can have them well in excess of a mile or so but this one was fairly narrow. if you look, mike, i don't know if you can get this, this ravine, a lot of trees have been scrubbed by the winds and in a counterclockwise fashion and a lot of insulation and a lot of looks like, some piping, even, even some clothing that's up in the trees and then you veer over to the other side and only a few streets over you see much of the damage begins to subside. yes, very narrow and in some places, maybe just 100 yards, if that much. >> when you say they had warning, what does that mean exactly? that folks were warned the tornadoes were on the way? >> for one thing, i can tell you that people in birmingham, alabama and surrounding communities are very weather savvy. they've had a lot of advance warning and knowing for days there going to be this possibility. on cnn we've been broadcasting and our entire weather team has been showing the forecast and storm prediction center. they knew days in advance this atmospheric setup was going to take place and tornados were all but a certainty. the idea was we didn't know where exactly. it was impossible to pinpoint exactly where they're going to occur but sure enough they happened here and people here were aware. second thing, they have sirens in the community. they heard the sirens go off. i can tell you people in this community have the noaa weather radio. as soon as they hear the signal people know to take cover. that one family we interviewed earlier they did just that. >> thank god. give our best to all the folks our heart goes out to them. ren noolds wolf on the scene in clay, alabama. thank you very much. other important news, escalating global concern over iran's nuclear capabilities. the united states and its allies now on heightened alert as the country steps up threats to close the critical international waterway. this is bold new action has just been announced designed to hit iran where it purts hurts. its staggering oil supply. chris lawrence is standing by with the latest. chris, very dramatic developments and very significant? >> reporter: wolf, this is the most significant toughening of sanctions to date. it could literally bring iran's economy to its knees. two sides, either backing down. on monday, a defiant iran, again threatening to shut down a vital shipping line for oil. one day after the u.s. sent another aircraft carrier through the strait. and european nations have moved to cripple iran's entire economy. >> we've adopted tough new sanctions against iran because of the concern we have over their nuclear program. >> the european union adopted an unprecedented oil embargo against iran. it's 20% of iran's exports, gone! all that remains is to account for iran's biggest customers, china, japan and india. >> we're in conversation, of course, with countries across the world, about trying to ensure that if you like the gap isn't simply fill. >> reporter: american, british and french warships are patrolling the waters in and around the strait. european officials are also freezing the assets of iran's central bank in the eu. and monday, the u.s. treasury department sanctioned iran's third largest bank. one of its last access points to international finance. that's 23 banks on the black list. and some argue, iran is more isolated than it's ever been since the islamic revolution. >> its currency is in a downward tailspin. it's population is incredibly disgrountled. >> this analyst says, if american politicians are serious about reducing the federal debt and improving the u.s. economy, threats to bomb iran's nuclear sites are misguided. >> and because it would sky rocket oil prices and it would require greater u.s. presence in the middle east just at the time when most americans want us to get out of the middle east. >> so all this is basically designed to get iran back to the negotiating table on its nuclear program. officials say they have received messages that iran is ready to talk, but that doesn't mean it will actually take substannive steps to stop its development, wolf. >> as you know iran exports a lot of oil if they choke that export line off, what impact will it have on gas prices? >> well, some say it could take the cost of a barrel from $100 do $120. that's because the global marketplace, you know, sort of sets the price. and it's a great question, wolf, because if you see a spike in oil prices, that just makes iran's exports to other nations that much more valuable. but what we're seeing to mitigate that is these -- the disembargo is going to be phased in over several months. the world demand for oil seems to be going down and some alternative suppliers like the saudis have indicated they may be able to make up the difference. >> good point. chris lawrence, a very important story you're following. thank you. the intense battle for the white house. a shocking turn around at the front of the pack. only days before the pivotal florida primary. take a look at this latest gallup national poll showing mitt romney and newt gingrich in a statistical dead heat. a huge boost for newt gingrich who only a week ago was trailing romney by more than 20 percentage points. today, mitt romney is pulling out all the stops in florida hoping a fierce attack on newt gingrich will help him reclaim his long-held frontrunner status in this presidential race. >> he's gone from pillar to post, almost like a pin ball machine. from item to item and in a way which is highly erratic and does not suggest a stable, thoughtful course which is normally associated with leadership. >> these charges against the former house speaker also resonating with some republican lawmakers on capitol hill whereas dramatic surge in the polls is causing concern for some of them. let's bring in our senior congressional correspondent, dana bash. she has the details. >> reporter: wofrl i rode up on the elevator with longtime house republican lawmaker who served for a long time with newt gingrich but has endorsed mitt romney. i asked, why did you endorse romney and he said because ied a long time with newt gingrich. that gives you a sense of how the feeling is here in this building about newt gingrich. one gop strategist who has not endorsed anybody said the feeling is not at deaf confive but panic -- def con5. the prospect of newt gingrich becoming the nominee is producing significant gop angst. >> most people here are very nervous about a gingrich presidency. >> a veteran says, publicly what many lawmakers and strategists will only tell cnn privately. >> it sends a shiver down a lot of republican spines. you can actually feel the nervousness in washington from republicans around town that gingrich could actually bring the craziness back of the speakership of the 1990s. >> reporter: several sorgss tell us it's not only about the white house. republican leaders worry gingrich at the top of the ticket could be a drag on their candidates for congress and even her chances tore taking over the center. they point to virginia, ohio, florida and nevada, as example of senate races that could be in jeopardy. why? gingrich's reputation as an undisciplined messenger. like when he said this about the medicare plan most republicans supported. >> yooeng rigi think right wing engineering is any more than the left engineering. i don't think that's a very good way for a free society to operate. >> some, like senator james deminute dismissed the concerns. >> i think what we've seen from nooult that people like is the willingness to take on the media and to really stand up and fight. >> reporter: still, just 12 sitting republican lawmakers have endorsed the former house speaker, 64 support mitt romney. the gingrich campaign e-mailed a list of 11 former members of congress who served with gingrich who are backing him now. >> we had a balanced budget with newt. only time in my lifetime we didn't spend more than we took in. >> reporter: but many former colleagues have endorsed mitt romney. susan molinari made this ad. >> i served with newt gingrich in congress. he had a leadership style that can only be described as leadership by chaos. >> reporter: gingrich tries to turn the criticism into a plus. >> it's clear the establishment wants romney. >> and republican lawmakers here on capitol hill say they know they are good foil for newt gingrich saying just that, that the establishment is out to get him and that's why, wolf, we had trouble getting people who are very opened and private to come on camera and talk about their concerns about newt gingrich but one of the republican strategists who was really involved in getting republicans elected but not endorsed said the narrative feed into his narrative but they are still very concerned about it. >> you got to give him credit. he's manages to turn negative stuff into positive stuff for him and he does that brilliantly. >> he sure does. >> on very many occasions. thanks very much, dana, on capitol hill. some are calling and i'm quoting -- the billionaire who bought iowa for rick santorum. >> how much? >> well, it's like -- i got to keep that from my wife. she could kill me if she found out. >> just ahead, cnn goes in-depth on the moneymaker behind the candidate. and we are at the epicenter of the brutal syria crackdown where life is now a never-ending cycle of fear and uncertainty. the next phase was going to be, you know, because you been, you know, this is what you had been doing. you know, working, working, working, working, working, working. and now you're talking about, well you know, i won't be, and i get the chance to spend more time with my wife and my kids. it's my world. that's my world. ♪ that's my world. i've tried it. but nothing helped me beat my back pain. then i tried salonpas. it's powerful relief that works at the site of pain and lasts up to 12 hours. salonpas. we'll get back to jack cafferty for the cafferty file. it juiced to matter, wolf, this state of the union thing the president does. it use to be a snapshot of where the country stood. how can any is doing and what is and isn't. now it's a speech a nice by bundled batch of bs designed to make the american people feel good about whichever party is pedaling it. in election year it's worse than usual. nevertheless, it an exercise the president has to go through once a year and tomorrow night is the night. with a captive audience and the joint sex of congress and a national television audience of millions, president obama will tell us what a wonderful job he's doing and how everything is going great in the country. he probably won't mention that the nation is broke. he probably won't talk much about the long national nightmare that's the war in afghanistan. he's not likely to address the fact that gas prices have doubled since he took office. and he probably who want draw much attention to the fact that the housing crisis still isn't anywhere near over. he likely won't mention that the overall standard of living for americans is in decline. and i'll bet he doesn't dwell on the fact that millions on millions of americans still can't find a job. instead he'll likely try to portray whatever problems he addresses as all being congress' fault while at the same time promising he'll do much better in the coming year. the fact of the matter is the state of our union isn't all that good and the gridlock in congress and the intense mart sanship in the country did you want bode well for the future. here's the question -- how confident are you in the state of the union? go to cnbc cnbc/cafferty file and post a comment on my blog go to cnn.com/cafferty file. and this note to our viewers, watch cnn for special coverage of the president cease state of the union address tomorrow night. it begins live at 8:00 p.m. eastern only here on cnn. turning now to syria where the mass bloodshed is reportedly claimed ood 29 lives. it's all prompting a widening european sanctions against syrian officials and fueling fierce backlash against arab league observers for not putting a stop to the brutality. c nchl cnn's a rimpthere. >> people no longer flinch when they hear gunfire. what was once terrifying is now just routine. trash lines the sheet and most shops are shut. those opened don't have power. this was once a thriving metropolis and now its the epicenter of clashes between government and opposition forces. there are fortified military positions on just about every street corner. it's tragic, awful. these two women who don't want to be named tell us -- kidnappings, killings, gunfire -- they won't say who is to blame. but their lives are now a never-ending cycle of fear and uncertainty. emotions that we find everywhere we go in hopes on all sides. and among those caught in the middle. we're in a predominantly christian neighborhood on a tour organized by the government. our escorts say it's one of the few that remains relatively safe. this couple own this shop and they're saying that this type of ongoing gunfire we're hearing around us has become perfectly normal but they're really very confined as to where they can go in less than a two-minute walk up the road they're saying that's where the clashes are taking place. but many here don't want to be identified. some government supporters say they fear what they call "armed gangs." and don't want to appear on camera. nor does that young woman who says she's with the opposition. no one dares to talk, she claims. you're not seeing truth here. there are plain clothes government security listening. down another road we see bullet holes in a building. anti-government graffiti painted over. we're told not to advance any further. that part of town is controlled by what the government and its supporters call "terrorists." what the opposition called "the free syrian army." made up mainly of military deserters it's having a growing impact. ♪ at the military hospital nearby, a funeral for three members of the security forces. hospital officials tell us on average, five soldiers are dying a day, another 30 are wounded. inside this 22-year-old soldier is in intensive care with a gunshot wound to the head. we're told he was brought in half an hour before we arrived. this is the hardest period that we've gone through, the doctor tells us who has been stayinged here for 31 years. the number of casualties and the scale of their injuries has been very challenging. this doctor says that he would understand a national syrian opposition. but insists the armed resistance has been hijacked by what he calls "external destructive forces." this without a doubt, is creating fragments within society, he admits. it's a fear felt by many syrians we meet. whatever their opinions, that the country's divisions are beyond healing. cnn, syria, back to you. >> and joining us now on the phone, arwa we're getting numbers in and another 36 people killed today and a third of them in homes where you are. more than 6,000 now confirmed dead in syria since the uprising began several months ago. a lot of people are asking me to make sure that you're okay. tell our viewers, in the united states and around the world, how you're doing. >> well, we're absolutely fine and what people need to realize is that no matter what it is we go through at journalists, it's real a fraction of what the syrian people are going through, no matter which side of the spectrum they fall on you just saw that report and there are a number of people that we met in that city there, quite frankly, caught in the middle of everything. the situation here is so polarized at this point in time. the two sides are so hardened against one another and there are a number of people in the middle of it all. people that -- the silent majority. and they are simply trying to wait and hope for some sort of political resolution because at the end of the day, nobody across any side of the spectrum wants to see this country descend into some sort of warfare along whatever lines it may be at the end of the day. but what many people keep pointing out to us is that the longer this drags on, the harder it is going to be to find any sort of a political resolution, and at this point in time, even peace. and people don't know how to save their own country at this stage, wolf. >> just be careful, arwa. arwa damon, one of our most courageous journalists in syria for us. thank you. republican presidential candidate newt gingrich dip into history to take shots at president obama. >> the values that he believes in, the sol olinsky that are at the heart of obama are a disaster. his bhooirn exceptionalism versus the radicalism of sol olinsky. >> who was he? stand by and i'll find out. >> and this -- that's a banged-up senator john kerry. how did he get those two shiners? we'll tell you. the republican presidential hopeful rick santorum is on the ground in florida after a third-place finish in south carolina. he struck an optimistic note about the dollars and cents of campaigning. >> the other two candidates are out there saying, we can win. what gives you the impression that they have a better ability to win this election than i do? governor romney says -- i can win because i have the most money. does anyone doubt whoever the republican nominee will have all of the money they ever need to run against barack obama? they will. there's absolutely no doubt that whoever the republican nominee is, will be backed fully, completely and by the way, en -- in our case, enthusiastically, by the base of the republican party, the entire base. >> all right, now rick santorum's campaign depends on contributions from his own supporters. one backer in particular, is openly spending millions to keep santorum's white house aspirations alive. drew griffin with cnn special investigation's unit has an in-depth look. >> reporter: when foster free saw his friend rick santorum stuck on the outside of the debate podium last sumner iowa. >> i need a chance to say a whole lot. >> you have the next question, senator, i proims. >> reporter: he knew he had to do something. santorum wasn't getting his message across and trying to wave his hand in front of the media wasn't working. so this born-again christian and major philanthropist opened his checkbook and began to write down numbers. big numbers that he would send, not to santorum, but to santorum's super pac. >> did you save santorum? >> no. did i what? >> save limb. >> good heavens, no. you're keeping him alive right now it seems. >> i think the daily cost did an article. the -- a billionaire that bought iowa for santorum so people discount it. he went to 341 stops, town hall meetings. >> reporter: he is still giving. gave in south carolina. sending more to florida. >> how much? >> it's like, i got to keep it from my wife. she could kill me if she really found out 'i want to keep it under the radar. it will be reported eventually but i just want to -- i believe in santorum. i believe in what he can do for the country. >> reporter: right now it's what this former investment manager can do for santorum that counts. he has lots of money, out of his jackson hole foundation, he gives it away. millions to haiti relief efforts and millions to victims of the knee january sue indonesia tsunami and supporting his pick for president. do you think there's something inherently wrong with all that money? whether it's left or right? >> well, the reality is that it would be a lot better if people directly to a campaign. if you're running for something, everybody ought to send money directly to you. you're in control of it and you don't have to play all these games and it's honest, up front, forward, fully disclosed. that's the way it should be. >> reporter: he's pushed the rules on super pacs by appearing at campaign stops. by law he's not supposed to talk to santorum about campaign strategy or what the red, white and blue fund is doing to help the campaign. he admits it's made his long-term friendships with santorum, well, a little more formal. >> are you able to communicate with him? >> it's very, very touchy. i have to be very careful what i say. if i have a question i want to ask i call up the lawyer and say, can i discuss this? and they say, yeah it's okay. it's annoying to have to be on such egg shells knowing that you could unwittingly violate hey law. >> reporter: while he won't say how much he gave he openly says he'll give half a million more if sportsmen around the country will match his donation. >> with that kind of money on the line and given santorum's struggle to stay in this campaign, wolf, i asked folser freiss and he said no. he thinks that santorum can really outhustle the other candidates if he can just stay in the race. it's this super pac that's really keeping santorum in the race. wolf? >> good point, excellent report. i know you'll have a lot more on "ac 360" later tonight. thanks very much. the surge of dramatic presidential debates proving to be another major factor in this campaign season. let's bring in our chief political analyst, gloria borger. there are always debates. >> always. >> i moderated five the last cycle around four years ago and i'm doing another one thursday night in jacksonville. is it my impression or do you agree the debates this time in this republican contest, seem to have been so much more important? >> they are more important this time, no doubt about it. go back to 2008. you had a bunch of candidates that were pretty well known. you had romney. you had giuliani. you had john mccain. republicans knew who they were so they watched the debates. but this time, this time you had mitt romney and everybody else. and that includes newt gingrich, by the way, because his large popularity was sort of in the mid 90s. lots of people didn't nope who he was. herman cain, michele bachmann and the list goes on. you also have a bunch of voters who were shopping around. very undecided, very fluid race. and so they tuned into these debates because they wanted to introduce themselves to the candidates. when you look at the numbers compared to 2008's kind of interesting. at this point now, by the end of this week we'll have had 19 debates and 2008, we had 15 debates. so there were a lot of debates in 2008. but they didn't pack the punch because you had so many virtually unknown candidates this time who decided that they needed to say "yes" to every request because they wanted to get up on the stage and introduce themselves. >> 19 debates just for the republicans or just -- >> just for the republicans. last time it was 15. >> if didn't realize that. >> we did have a lot. >> what, in south carolina, you've been looking at the exit poll numbers, what was more important? the debates or the money? >> i would say the debates. let me show you the money numbers here and you can decide for yourself. mitt romney and his super pac, for example, spent $4.45 million. gingrich and his super pac, $2.8 million. gingrich won, as you know, bye-bye a dozen points but there were two debates in the last days leading up to south carolina. and we asked voters in the exit polls so i want you to take a look at this, from south carolina, were the debates important to your vote? and the answers were as you see, overwhelmingly, 65% said yes. 34%, no. here's another factor that made the debates so decisive. more than half the voters told us that they decided in the last few days and gingrich got close to half of those voters and so, we have to really believe that the debates were what closed the deal for newt gingrich. >> and heads to florida a week from tomorrow. a big state and a lot of media markets. money is going to be critical. >> money and debate is critical. debates leading up to the primary or very close to the primary but it is a larger state with ten major media markets. and money buys organization. and that's what mitt romney has. we've already had, for example, about 200,000 ballots cast. mitt romney has been organizing to get those votes us early. that will help him. but, again, wolf, you know that you're going to have a debate and there's a debate tonight. there's another debate thursday and that will be, what, five days before the primary. so it will be very important. >> thursday night, jacksonville, we'll be there for the debate at 8:00 p.m. eastern. >> i'll be there, too. >> okay. in the political arena take some occasional hard knocks but not quite like this. what happened to senator joan kerry? look at that. and he's newt gingrich's favorite new reference to use on the campaign trail when criticizing president obama. >> you know who saul alinsky was? >> no idea, sorry. >> no idea? >> sorry. all energy development comes with some risk, but proven technologies allow natural gas producers to supply affordable, cleaner energy, while protecting our environment. across america, these technologies protect air - by monitoring air quality and reducing emissions... ...protect water - through conservation and self-contained recycling systems... ... and protect land - by reducing our footprint and respecting wildlife. america's natural gas... domestic, abundant, clean energy to power our lives... that's smarter power today. in your breakfast cereal, what is? now, in every box of general mills big g cereal, there's more whole grain than any other ingredient. that's why it's listed first. get more whole grain than any other ingredient... just look for the white check. united states senator is hospitalized for a stroke. rihanna is monitoring that and other top stories in "the situation room." briana, what happened? >> hi, there, wolf. republican senator mark kirk of illinois underwent surgery today to ease pressure on his brain after suffering a stroke. he's in intensive care but his prognosis reportedly, doctors say for recovery, pretty good. they say the stroke affected the left side of his body, his arm, leg and face. you may recall he won the seat vacated by president obama. steven tyler catching a lot of heat for his performance of the national anthem at yesterday's afc championship game. check it out. ♪ oh the land of the free ♪ and the home of the brave >> the sports website dead spin is trying the figure out if that will go don as the worst national anthem performance of all time. and the boston bruins visited the white house today. president obama hosted the stanley cup champs with a number of fans and dignitaries and among them, senator john kerry of massachusetts. you see him there, yes, he is sporting two shiners. turns out the senator, wolf, was in good company. he actually got the plaque eyes playing hockey. >> if he still plays hockey, i guess maybe he should learn, learn a he son. maybe he's getting a little old to be playing hockey. it's getting dangerous. thank you very much. he's the man newt gingrich loves to use against president obama. so who is or was, i should say, saul alinsky? we're going to give you a closer look. here's an update on the progress. we're paying for all spill related clean-up costs. bp findings supports independent scientists studying the gulf's environment. thousands of environmental samples have been tested and all beaches and waters are open. and the tourists are back. i was born here, i'm still here and so is bp. newt gingrich's go-to guy when criticizing president obama, is often by the name of someone called saul alinsky. who is or was, saul alinsky? who was he? >> he was a community organizer like the president, wolf, who, like the president, tried to empower some chicago neighborhoods. he once had a fbi file but he was prominent analysts say, well before mr. obama's time and the people who know his story say he was not quite the extremist newt gingrich says he was. it seems like newt gingrich's favorite name on the campaign trail. he invokes it constantly, comparing president obama to one man -- >> the president believes in a kind of saul alinsky radicalism. the values he believes in, the saul alinsky radicalism that's at the heart of obama, are a disaster. >> i think he's a genuine, sincere, saul alinsky radical. >> okay, folks, help us out. do you know who saul alinsky was? >> no i don't. >> no idea? >> no. >> a member of the weather underground? >> not quite. >> a community organizer, i think, chicago-based. >> we have a winner. saul alinsky, a community organizer in chicago, who took on powerful bosses like mayor richard daley to give poor, underrepresented neighborhoods a voigs in decisionmaking. sanford horowitz wrote a byography of alinsky. >> if the alwayserman neighborhood in chicago didn't respond to neighbors who wanted their garbage picked up the way middle-class neighborhoods got their garbage picked up the group might load a truckload of garbage and dump it on the alder men's door step. >> is this the polarizing figures the conservatives bracketed president obama with in 2008? horowitz says even though he who the two books with the word "radical" in their titles alinsky never adhered to extreme ideology, left or right, and said he always had a broader purpose. he said alinsky didn't organize protests just to agitate, bow for patriotism and affect what he saw as positive change. as for an obama connection, saul alinsky dsaul alinsky when he ws 10 years old and horowitz said he was trained by people that worked with alinsky. they disagreed with hills confrontational tactics. why is newt gingrich pounding on this? we couldn't get an answer out of his campaign. an aide to gingrich in the '90s believes he's playing to traditional conservatives for whom radical means extreme left. could it work against him in any way? >> sure it could, if it just becomes what his campaign is known for then i think people will tire of it and say, enough already. >> reporter: now at least one conservative leader has praised saul alinsky, that's former house majority leader, dick armey, who was a colleague of newt gingrich's in congress and now heads a tea party ally group and he says his group uses some of alinsky's methods trying to stir up debate at town hall meetings and he said he was good at what he did but what he did was not good. mr. obama is not the only top democrat who has been painted with saul alinsky. this is an undergraduate thesis written by hillary clinton called "there's only the fight." she was painted by some people as being radical because of this paper when she ran form president in 2008. >> good report. now we know who saul alinsky is. jack cafferty is coming up next.
