All right. Got to move it right along. What did he learn today . Im going to defer my time because i learned from afropolitan means. Someone who has strong ties to the continent but global perspective. My niche. This is it, ghana must go. My first one. A spectacular piece of work. What about what i learned . You learned to stand here and do this. Chuck todd, chuck, take it away, buddy. Thank you. President obama and his team take it down a notch now that the sequester cuts are a reality and while the budget battles take a breather, the next fight might unfold fast this week over the from thes pick to run the cia. Also this morning, my conversation with former Florida Governor jeb bush about immigration. The Republican Party, in the future, not shying away from 2016, could his candor cause a clamor. Somebody voting today, the city of angels where antonio viadosos could lead to the first woman mayor of americas second largest city. Good morning from the s street dog park in washington, d. C. Its tuesday, march 5th, 2013, and this is the daily rundown. Heres chuck todd. Go get it, chuck todd. That was a good catch, and yes, that dog is named chuck todd. Thanks to him and his owners, michael and lul sauna. As washington gets ready for what may be the first significant snowstorm in two years, the snowquester, bread and milk buying and worrying, as only washington can, d. C. Digging out from eat storm, the sequester. The president attend down the warnings again, adopting more of a reassuring tone. We are going to manage it as best we can to try to minimize the impacts on american families. This will slow our growth. It will mean lower employment in the United States than otherwise would have been, but we can manage through it. Meanwhile, there was still cleanup going on from the campaign stage. Arne duncan said he may have misspoke when he said teachers were already losing jobs. When i said pink slips, that was probably the wrong word. You should have use job elimination. I should have been clear there. Secondly, when i said impact on teachers, you should have said impact on educators. This morning in a new cbs poll, 53 surveyed say they will personally be affected by the cuts. 18 said they want to see cuts, but 63 said they want to see the cuts without the sequester. Only 13 want no cuts at all. When it comes to the political fallout of the all this, more americans would blame republicans in congress, 38 . But theres plenty of blame to go around, 33 would blame the president and congressional democrats. So you see why the white house wanted too pull up stakes. Keeping sequester funds in place but giving those agencies more flexibility to decide what programs that will seeth cuts. Senate democrats may add other measures to try to cushion the blow of the cuts but neither side is looking for a real confrontation here. Meanwhile, the white house is trying to move on to other fights. Today, the fight may turn out to be about cia pick john brennan. The Senate Intelligence committee is scheduled to vote on his nomination today. Senate majority reid said the vote will be a test of republicans good will. But republicans, some of them, want more answers on the benghazi attack and they are threatening to put a hold on brennens nomination as leverage. John and i are hellbent on making sure the American People understand this debacle called benghazi. Ive had questions for weeks now. I have some questions about torture. Im not going to vote on a new croix director until i find out what the croix did in benghazi. Yesterday they released a list of what they regard as unanswered questioned about benghazi. Including democrats who believe the senate has not Given Congress enough information. After the president rolled out new budget, energy and epa picks, just five cabinet posts remain to be filled. Secretaries of commerce, labor and transportation, top spot at the Small Business administration and the job of u. S. Trade representative. Most of that we expect to get filled up in the next week or two. If its tuesday, you know my favorite expression, somebodys voting somewhere. Today that somewhere is in the countrys secondlargest city. Los angeles is beginning the stages of picking a new mayor. Accusations of corruption and recordbreaking Campaign Spending with more than 19 million spent on ads, Campaign Mailers and consultants, the top two candidates are tied. Councilman Eric Garcetti picked up 27 . Wendy gruel was at 25 . Third, radio host kevin james, the only true republican in race. Along with scandal, this race also has a celebrity, because you know, its l. A. Eric was always the idea guy. When we were 8 years old, he had a crazy idea to start a break dancing crew and to dance battle other dancing cruise around town. What we lived together later became the basis the hit move, break in two, electric bugaloo. Theres a measure thats on the ballot that would raise the sales tax to 9. 5 to bring in 1 billion over the next five years to help close the citys shortfall. But its unpopular. All the candidates for mayor came to oppose that ballot measure. Theyve spent money of their own, swapping accusations, the most bizarre being this video from the loan republican kevin james. As mayor of los angeles, i get not only showing where we can find the money and showing where the bodies are buried. When wendy gruel says she knows where the bodies are buried, believe her because she and Eric Garcetti are the ones that buried them. It is a detraction and a desperate attempt and i think is inappropriate. The ad got plenty of attention. It drove james negatives up to over 50 with a group that watched the ad. Meanwhile, gruel, who could become the first woman to lead l. A. If she won, have been boosting unions. Theyve been airing ads like this one of garcetti singing at a convalescent home. Gruel has failed to audit the nwp salaries, and now the dwp is spending millions to attack me. You can see these attacks are all over the place. Nt other woman in the race, jan perrys ability to manage the budget because she once filed for personal bankruptcy. They called the attacks outrageous and offensive to those of us fighting every day to help women Fund Financial security after divorces, knowing the issues are related to her exhusbands law practice. First, how many people will vote . Could be a low turnout. Just 34 in 05. Care to 44 in philly, 41 in san francisco. The second question, will we have to do it all over again . If no one gets more than 50 today, they advance to the oneonone runoff on may 21st. Polls open today and close at 11 pm eastern time. And by the way, the hispanic vote, theres no natural constituency. Eric garcetti can claim some hispanic heritage. Its going to be fascinating to watch. This ones not over after tonight. By the end of former Florida Governor jeb bushs tour, there isnt going to be anybody who has a doubt that he is serious about running for president in 2016. Hes reducing this book tour to raise his hand to wanting to become a major player in the Republican Partys attempts to rebuild. Hes not shying away from raw politics. When i sat down with him, he pulled no punches about the mistakes he believes mitt romney made in 2012, specifically on the issue of immigration. For a guy who is as talented as he is and who i think would have earnestly gone about the job of being president in a way that would have brought people together, i dont get it. It became clear that if you turn people off that are aspirational in nature because of your tone on immigration particularly, youre not going to win peoples vote. Jeb bush had been critical of the tone mitt romney took on immigration. While he admits hes thinking about running for president in 2016, hes also mindful of the difficulties of where the republican primaries are today. He watched both his brother and father slog through questions of real conservatives. I remember you said i thought i was a conservative. I would not have been a conservative in that debate. Yeah, so the question is how do you win with purpose and meaning that allows you to have a chance to win in the general election . And i think its back to, i dont want to sound like a broken record, but i think its to talk about positive things rather than just appealing to peoples legitimate anger about the direction the countrys in. You have to do more than that. Theres a lot of more that you will want to hear from jeb bush including explaining his Immigration Reform solution. Hes backtracking from his own plan in his book. His surprising thoughts on the cuban american vote that went better for obama than a lot of people expected and what he thinks about Florida Governor rick scotts decision on the healthcare law. Plus his father, brother, his son, and more of his thoughts in a 2016 reason. Thats all coming up later this hour in our deep dive at the bottom of the hour. But up next, a different type of republican family feud maybe. Congresswoman shelly morecap will be here. Shes caught in the fight between karl rove and conservatives. But first a look at todays politics planner. As you can see north korean hearing going on in capitol hill. Well see if Dennis Rodmans name stays in the news. And of course l. A. Youre watching the daily rundown only on msnbc. My mother made the best toffee in the world. Its delicious. So now weve turned her toffee into a business. My goal was to take an idea and make it happen. Im janet long and i formed my Toffee Company through legalzoom. I never really thought i would make money doing what i love.

Thankfully etrade has low cost investments and no hidden fees. But, you know, if youre still bent on blowing this fat stack of cash, theres a couple of ways you could do it. Or just go to etrade and save it. Boom. Well, its day four of the sequester. As the hysteria starts to die down and the 85 million in spending cuts kick in, is there a compromise . Joining me now congresswoman shelly moore capito. Good morning to you. Good morning. Thank you. I want to ask you about the sequester impact in West Virginia. The good, the bad, the ugly. What can you tell me . I was there over the weekend as i am every weekend, and a lot of people saying hang tough. This is the time to challenge the will of this country to cut spending to move us in a better fiscal direction. There is concern, certainly i have concern about the education issue because we have a lot of title i schools. But i think we could make adjustments and there is a will to make those adjustments in the next several weeks. Explain that will. Does it include something where you would see more of a grand compromise . Could you support a large compromise that included some closing of tax loopholes, but included longterm changes in entitlements that the president is claiming hell agree to . I dont see us getting there in the next three weeks. I think that we in the shortterm, were going to make adjustments this week to give the department of defense and the va the ability to move around and make those cuts in the places where they feel they can. I think in the longterm, certainly. We want tax reform. Hr 1 is all about tax reform that dave camps been working on and his committee. And those will close those loopholes, make it more fair. Weve got to do that, and i want to join with that and also the entitlement issue. I havent seen a real effort from the administration to say lets preserve this for future generations. I want to go back to the issue of longterm. If tax reform produces new revenue, which is always the washington code word for new taxes, are you okay with seeing some of this money used not to only lower the tax rates but maybe some of that money used as part of the grand background, if you will, that maybe included, so that some spending cuts werent as harsh as some people want them to be. Id like to see when we see the figures, when we see where this goes, lowering the rate is something im in favor of and voted for several times. At the same time id like to see us dedicate some of that money to Debt Reduction in the longterm. But we still have the big elephant i like to say elephant in the room. The entitlement issues, because if we dont start reforming these, the next generation, its not going to be there. And i think thats a real red flag for all of us. West virginia is a state that, you know, if youre going to rank states about money that they send to washington versus money they receive from washington, West Virginias one of these states that ranks pretty high up on getting money from washington. How fortune is federal spending to West Virginias economy. I think youve said it there, it is very important. But also, were a state of great families and communities who want to see opportunities for our children and our grandchildren, and i think that we realize that when you have one hand tied behind your back because youve overspent and your Economic Force is not with you, that thats not an advantageous place like West Virginia that does have a lot of federal dollars coming in. So i think were willing to titl tighten our belts. Thats what we expect from washington. Youve supported some of this federal spending and its gotten some criticism from some of the National Conservative groups who believe that youve been too supportive of federal spending. What do you say when you didnt get attacked by democrats first, you got attacked by conservatives first. It was talked about that her record looks like the establishment candidates who lost this year. But theyve been critical because youve supported federal spending that comes to West Virginia. What do you say to them . I say to them, i live in a state, in West Virginia, and my first loyalties and priorities are to the people of West Virginia. And one of the votes that they point out in that is the Childrens Health insurance program. I live in a state where there are a lot of children living in poverty whose parents cant afford insurance for one reason or another, unfortunately, and we know that their path to success and opportunity is better health. So im going to support the Childrens Health insurance program. This is a history ive had since i was in the state legislature. And the way i would say to National Groups is, i didnt come to congress to be rated by a national group. I came to help the people that i serve and im going to keep doing that. Its all the political silliness. Im thinking i must be doing something right if everybodys attacking me. You have a karl rove whos trying to make american crossroads and try to start a new group that would help who he called more electable candidates for status, so in this case would be more supportive of your candidacy. Are you glad that there are people like karl rove out there trying to do that for a candidacy potentially like yours . I think what we have to look at is whats at stake here and thats control of the United States senate. And i think that its extremely important in the framework of this country to move us in the direction id like to see us go is to get control of the United States senate. And West Virginia is considered one of the primary opportunities. Im glad to be right there at the center of it, and i think i can be successful with it. Groups coming in are really less important to me than my work ethic and my ability to communicate where i can go. Do you sometimes think electability should trump ideology. I think people want to know that they can trust you, that understand their problems, and so electability is extremely important. All right. From West Virginia, and your father, i believe, was governor back in the day of West Virginia. Thanks for coming on. Sure. Thanks. Youre looking at some live pictures here of the apac conference going on. Vice President Biden brought down the house yesterday with a new warning to rather than, and moment ago secretary of state john kerry spoke to Andrea Mitchell. Bob menendez is speaking right now. Well have an update for you after the break. And up next after the radar, venezuelaen president hue go chavez has taken a turn for the worse.

Another twist in the allegations around senator bob menendez. But first hugo chavez has a severe respiratory infection and difficulty breathing. The Communications Minister says he is in a delicate state and suffering from a new infection. He has been undergoing chemotherapy and hasnt been seen or heard from except for a few photos last month. The government rarely confirms this, so the fact theyre saying it says a lot. Secretary of state john kerry sat down with our good friend, Andrea Mitchell for his first interview since taking the job. Here he is on Irans Nuclear program. Can we trust them . Which is proof no, this is not a matter of trust, andrea. You remember gorbechev. Where it is verifiable as to what theyre doing, so that everybody, the international community, the united nations, israel, our friends and allies all can come together. If that is not happening, there are other choices to the president , and he is taken nothing off the table. Yesterday netanyahu delivered a speech, expressing his desire regarding Irans Nuclear threat. Let me make clear what that is. It is to prevent iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, period. Words alone will not stop iran. Sanctions alone will not stop iran. Sanctions must be coupled with a clear and credible military threat if diplomacy and sanctions fail. Our big reminder here, president obama will make his first trip to israel as president in three weeks. We here at the daily rundown will be traveling with him. As you know, well be there in jerusalem for the trip. And finally, the Washington Post is reporting that one of the women in the Dominican Republic who said senator Robert Menendez paid her for sex said she was paid to make up the claim. The Woman Told Police that she has never met or seen him before. Scrutiny escalated after the conservative website the daily caller said he paid her for sex. She is not one the women she interviewed in 2012. The also said the daily post would not provide them with a copy of the affidavit. Menendez maintains that the allegations are false. Up next, my oneonone with former Florida Governor jeb bush, taking a deep dive into his view on Immigration Reform. Plus, politics runs in this family.

Something this delicious could only come from nature. New nectresse. The 100 natural nocalorie sweetener made from the goodness of fruit. New nectresse. Sweetness naturally. In todays deep dive, more of my conversation with former governor jeb bush. On one key issue, is he playing catchup . Before the election, he laid out a strategy that did not include a path to citizenship, believing such a plan wouldnt pass conservative muster. I sat down with the former governor to discuss his new book, immigration wars. He told me how he would fix the process. We should create a bigger our immigration laws should be more strategic in their approach. So i think a path to legal status where people can come out from the shadows is satisfactory in that regard. But remember this is a proposal we attempted to put out prior to the election to create a consensus for conservatives to get to the game. So you think its possible that a path to citizenship may be included in the eventual bill and are you going to be okay with that . I think we need comprehensive reform and if there is a path to citizenship that has enough of a relations that we have to respect the rule of law pay real fines. And a longer period of time. What is that window . The president has said eight years. The book is not a law. The book is set of principles and a set of recommendations. The fact that, though, you need to have two parties to engage to create consensus and compromise is what we hope to mack a contribution in. So the details ill let others figure out, but the simple fact is finished be easier to come legally than illegally and there should be rewards for legal status. The cubanamerican vote. It appears that it essentially was 50 50, you know, maybe romney won it by a point or two, maybe obama. But a split down the middle. Do you attribute that much that the younger cubans dont like this tone on hispanics as well . For sure. Its not just immigration in the case of cubanamerican voters because they have a special status in terms of immigration. Its our party, the party that has been i think the source of many of the important reforms grounded in conservative principles over the last generation of time has become way too reactionary. Way too against whatever someones for. And this younger generation, whether its white americans or cuban americans. Any hyphenated form of american. Yes. You cannot sustain a message of being against things. You have to be for things. And just when we come across as antiscience, anti the president , which look, theres a lot of problems with his policies. Do you think its personal . No. Its just more being against this expansion of government. Those are legitimate impulses but there are a whole lot of people that arent too impressed. Weve forgotten that. You go to the 90s and 80s, the democrats were those that are antireform. So instead of sending that signal, maybe we should have a view on immigration, which we know is emerging, have a view on education reform, have a view on regulatory reform, healthcare reform, have a view on tax policy, and recognizing that republicans control onehalf of the onethird of the government in washington, be principled in the advocacy of these views and not just be against things. If you look around the country, you see that that is actually happening. Well, the governors in general, and lets talk about Governor Scott and a decision that he made that surprised a lot of conservatives, this decision to take the medicaid money having to do with president obamas healthcare plan. What did you think of that decision . I was surprised, to be honest with you. Would you have made that call . I dont know. I think any time you have a chance to be back to this point. Anytime you have a chance to advocate reform, you should. So medicaid needs to be reformed. If youre going to expand it by 50 , it sure better be a dramatically different system. And in florida theres a waiver that has been approved that could be that reform, expands on the reforms that i had a chance to advocate when i was governor. So if the focus is on making medicaid work for people and that it wont create this outyear costs that people anticipate, that somehow the wm reform will yield a better result, then okay. Youre not there yet. If thats the case, kudos to the governor. If it isnt, then hes put the state in a precarious position three or four years out. Youre being much more open thannive ever heard you before. Whats different this time . Im not saying yes, im not saying no. Thats the difference. You used to be pretty definitive. 2008 i was asked about it, and i said no. It wasnt the right time. This may be the wrong time too. I dont know. Its way too early to go through that process four years out. But i guess what is your motivation to not shut the door this time . Whats different this time . Ive accomplished some things in my life that allow me now to have that kind of discretion to be able to think about it. I dont know what the rhythm and pace of 2014 looks like much less 2016. I dont know. But i think you have to understand, though, that we need to be the governing party. The whole point of this is to take conservative principles and to apply them, and the only way you can do that is to get 50 plus one. So the strategy needs to be how do you appeal to a broader number of people. I know this is sound kind of crazy, but people actually watch the republican and democratic primaries that arent republicans. People forget. Yes. Your election has to have that kind of purpose to it, the campaign does, and i think governor romney, in this really crazy primary system, managed to survive it, but he did not manage to put himself in a position where people connected with him on a personal level or a set of ideas that they said this guy is going to make this happen. Its no fault to his. Im not critical. It was a tough process he had to go through. So the next time, if you want to win, i think you have to learn from the lessons of the most recent election. One of the things, you were the only speech at the convention that brought up your brothers name. It was one of those did you hear the noise . It was unbelievable. It was powerful, the emotion. It was almost as if about time someone saiding . Has the Republican Party tried too hard not to bring up your brothers presidency . Yeah. You think they pushed it to the side . I do. But this is not a view where im coldly objective. Youre not objective . Mcclellan ncompletely not. I love the guy. Whos the advice you gave to your son running in texas. I didnt give any advice. Hes thought it through. Its a good time for him in terms of doing the most important thing, which is providing for his family. Hes got a great spouse that is totally in on this. Theyre having a baby, and shes a talented person in her own right. So i feel comfortable that hes thought through the personal side of this, which is the most important side.

Former governor jeb bush planted the flag in the 2016 president ial run saying hell make a bid in the future, so lets bring in our gaggle, nancy gibbs, and host of msnbcs now with alex wagner, i will not nickname you, alex wagner. You could nickname me. Maggie haberman, the thing about all this rollout with jeb, is hes not shying away from the 2016 conversation, probably have marco rubio going on, oh, no. Or something. But that in itself is a significant move for jeb. Absolutely. He spent so much time during the 2012 race avoiding process except for a couple moments when he said he didnt think his father would be able to get elected in his climate, and when he said 2012 was probably his moment and that ted passed him by. Obviously he thinks theres another moment ahead. I do think this was not the simplest of rollouts with this book. Its been complicated in terms of a path to citizenship and where he stands. It could be an issue for him. It depends on where this debate goes. Nancy, whats interesting about this book, he didnt come out for a path to citizenship in the book. You ask him about path to citizenship and he clearly says, its not a deal breaker. Then he says, well, i wrote the book before november when he thought republicans its clearly hinting read between the lines. He was having a political white paper in a attempt to get conservatives onboard, perhaps not where he was. It would put him to the right of marco rubio and the gang of eight. Path to citizenship, thats 9 million to 11 million potential voters. I think hes in a complicated position because all along hes been to the left of his party on this subject and thats not a comfortable place for him. But he seems to not be alex, he was so easily moved away from his book. Its like he sees the writing on the wall, oh, path to citizenships going to be in there. Ill be okay with it. Well, thats a big bet. I think, first of all the fact that jeb bush is now dropping the phrase magnets which harkens back to mitt romney. We talk about maggies written about the party. Fact that genetic bush feels he needs to do a tango over the path to citizenship when you have marco rubio pushing on that issue, it points, i am bullish about pushing. But when you see someone like him do what hes doing now at this point in the process, i think it throws some question out there as far as whether theyre actually going to get it done. Maggie, i saw already some former romney people blindfolded saying, geez, if he wasnt for a path to citizenship, why didnt he say that more loudly for us during the campaign . Well, it goes back to a political calculus and a white paper for the party. I think he knew where this was going. I dont think you ever saw him feeling that warm warm about romney. I think if the Romney Campaign wants a narrow dawn their list of enemies, i think he could be on it. But the fact that he is being so open about his desires on 2016, as you say, it changes things because almost everybody else is afraid to put something forward now. Right. Nancy, what this does with jeb doing this, and he cant clear the field like hillary, but you know theres a lot of democrats sitting there, going, that guy can get elected, if he somehow survives the process, hes sounding like the conservative in florida, knowing how to compromise, that puts more pressure on Hillary Clinton. Can i just say, that nothing delights me more than the idea of the smackdown. We never got this, clinton,c was the only one who mentioned his brothers name at the republican convention. Can i point out that it was mentioned more often at the Democratic Convention and that would have been in praise forxd bill cl. V 9 during his speech. That was. That wj÷ an excellent point. We are going come back. Maybe talk more about this. I want to talk about women might rule thexd two largeste1 cities1 is what took new york city for so long.

Bring back the gaggle. Nancy gibbs, mallory and alice wagner, its election day somewhere. I always get excited. Theyre voting in l. A. Today. I love angelina. The turnout will be horrendous. But what binds new york and l. A. This year is this opportunity for the first time that there are serious women candidates and its two cities that have never elected a woman mayor. Chris quinn is basically the de facto frontrunner and wendy groll probably gets in this runoff with garcetti. Why has it been so hard for new york not to elect a woman there .

She would be the first gay female mayor. That would be a big deal. Bloomberg, the question is its pretty clear to me all these l. A. Mayors are trying to run away from leregossa.
