0 say on tuesday. >> you hear a lot about the desire for the taxpayers and citizens of this country, for congress, for washington, for the white house to be focused on jobs and the economy. >> hold it right there, mr. canter. your party has spent the past several years trying to repeal obama care and curtail voting rights. the white house has put forth a jobs bill you won't even consider. no thanks to republicans, the u.s. economy added 175,000 jobs in may. overall, we have seen 39 straight months of private sector growth under president obama totalling 6.9 new jobs. job losses under george w. bush. the blue bars start when president obama took office. how much better could we have done if republicans spent more time working on the economy rather than blocking the president. so far, john boehner's 113th tell. there was 71% of latinos that voted for obama. the republican party understands why they can't succeed in the future if they can't cut that margin. that's why there is progress on that. on jobs, they didn't get the message. the president needs new strategies for putting it to them. >> come to an infrastructure conference if you want anything built in your district. he needs to go over their heads and say to the people in their states and districts, do you not want your roads and bridges fixed and go and visit them and put pressure on them the way he is starting to do on their obstruction on judges. so he must join this fight. as i explain, i try to pull back the curtain on what happened over the last couple of years. he got reelected. he can fight. >> is the white house a victim of the economy's success? under president obama, we have seen a rebound in jobs. it may not be great but the economy is growing. so the republicans are less interested in talking about that issue. is more difficult for the president to go out and mention on jobs, because people see it happening. >> it is a really weak recovery. so many people in polls, so many people still care with the economy. so many people are still reporting that they or a loved one has lost a job, that someone is in foreclosure. there is still a lot of pain. it is just that the republicans don't care about those people. >> they don't. >> that is not their constituency. they are more amenable to doing something on immigration reform. even there, you are seeing the far right of the caucus bull them back. ran paul says i am the conduit through which a deal must be made. i love that idea. >> he will also be suing. >> he is very pleased with himself. >> when rand paul is pretending that he is the voice of reason and perhaps conciliation on immigration control, you know on immigration reform, you know this bill is in some trouble. >> probably trouble in the house too. ari, we do have this situation where you have the rand pauls who are probably looking to run for president. you have a lot of pre-presidential 2016 politics mixed in with 2014 politics. it seems like we have a recipe for absolutely nothing getting done. >> the challenge for the white house is to try to build penalties in to this system. jonathan was talking about what moves, in terms of the pressure. i went and counted all the house votes that have been held this year. 211 votes. by my count, there was only one related to jobs at all, sort of returning veterans jobs program. so 1 out of 211 is really bad, really, really bad. a failing grade. what the white house has to do is really build that message and basically say, we see you. we see what you are up to. we see you can't get anything on the floor. i'm not talking about what they have to pass. you can't get the floor votes. in the senate, you have a shadow of filibuster. that has to be stronger for those that want to criticize and make some pressure. the president is having a conversation with the american people. it got big-footed by the nsa stuff. he is trying to constantly talk about jobs in his jobs bill. republicans are having a totally acce separate conversation about barack obama being a monster. this doesn't sound like a whole lot of forward movement on the most important issue to americans. >> the press has a short attention span. >> and is more interested in the republican conversation. >> what are you talking about? >> scandals have a short shelf life. even if they are ones that people like me care b the press scandal, the nsa scandal, a month from now, they are not going to be dominating the headlines. >> republicans will come up with a new one. >> they have to get traction on certain things. at a certain point, you can bring some pressure to bear. another important thing to remember when progressives get depressed, look at the glass half full. imagine if mitt romney and paul ryan had been elected, the story that i'm telling in my book is compelling. we dodged a bullet once. we can dodge a bullet again. >> i want to give joan the last word. >> i think you are being a little bit too op ttimistic abo the short attention span of the press. they get distracted by bright, shiny objects. >> they creatively worded e-mails. >> what are the consequence. we are not near the election. >> it is time off the clock. >> it is exactly that. >> time off the clock matters. >> if you get your forces aligned properly, if you light a fire under the members with the kind of communication harry is talking about, you can make things happen. what bothers me is a sense of fatigue about trying, thinking new ways. >> we are going to continue more about one of the bright, shining objects that is sort of making news. when we come back, we will talk about that latest bright, shiny object. joan, jonathan, ari, please stay with us. remember to answer tonight's question at the bottom of the screen. share your thoughts on twitter at edshow. up next, the man that says he is the source of the documents from the nsa data program. he shares the reason for the leaks. our reaction to the latest news coming up. ♪ c'est aujourd'hui ♪ ♪ et toujours ♪ me amour ♪ how about me?
