they have to have good content. if you can t trust what you read on twitter, they will stop reading twitter and that s a problem for their business. reporter: twitter declined to talk with us saying it doesn t comment on individual accounts for privacy and security reasons. the associated press says it s cooperating with twitter to investigate the hackers. it does start to get a lot scarier, though, when the goal is to spread misinformation. you have to wonder if the hackers today profited from the stock market drop after the false ap news. reporter: electronic army has claimed responsibility for the hack. but the associated press says that can t be corroborated. the fbi has opened an investigation. in this day and age, it s that ripple effect that happened so fast that s so scary. reporter: the computers speed it up faster and faster but it came back fast too for the same reason. good point. thank you. now, as don said, stocks bounced back from the flas
you you say republicans are going to need to find something new. i think the new middle ground is going to be for republicans to say we re going to put aside gay marriage as a legality for churches, we re against it. but we re not going to take a position for the state. so that they re not going to impose it federally. but say it s a religious issue, that s going to be the new ground. mike allen, thank you so much, thanks, chris cillizza. a bipartisan group of former lawmakers and political leaders is working on its own recommendations for immigration reform. trying to push the debate forward on capitol hill. joining me two co-chairs of this bipartisan policy centers, former pennsylvania governor and nbc news political analyst, ed rendell and former republican governor, mississippi governor hailey barbour. haley, what do you say about gay marriage, what john lewis has described as the civil rights issue of our generation. well my state my state had
0 correspondent mike allen. thanks to both of you. chris cillizza, the nra going out really strong against the momentum, the momentum around the country, if not in congress for new gun laws. yeah, it s fascinating, andrea, i think you ve put your finger on it. even as we sort of see this, at least concerns being raised by gun rights, gun control advocates, about this senate bill out there, it s likelihood of passage. you see connecticut, you see colorado, you see other states moving toward at the state level, moving toward more strict gun control policy. it s fast naturing, when we analyze the effect that newtown has had, have a tendency to look at the national level. which is important. but we should look also at the state level, at least in several cases, connecticut and colorado being the two most obvious, you are seeing some tightening of gun laws. of course mike allen, connecticut and colorado both having been so damaged by point out and to colorado tomorrow. so he is becoming
governor bobby jindal. let s listen. i absolutely reject that notion, that description. i think that s absolutely wrong. that is not i don t think that represents where we are as a party and where we re going as a party. and i think that has got to be one of the most fundamental takeaways from this election. that s one good sign that a little republican diversity doesn t hurt. because some people can hear what this guy romney is saying. wisconsin governor scott walker backed up jindal s comments saying the gop isn t just for people who are currently not dependent on the people, it s for all americans. and today, by the way, on andrea mitchell reports republican senator kelly ayotte from new hampshire distanced herself also from romney s gifts comment. let s listen to the senator. so you re not comfortable with what you heard him say? i don t know the full context of them, but i don t agree with the comments, and my view is the campaign is over. okay. and as of only no
well, those races didn t look good to begin with, but right now what do you do when you re in a party leadership position? well, if they don t adhere to what bobby jindal is talking about, the senator from new hampshire, if they don t understand hailey barbour, i can assure you democrats are really going to get that message. and believe me, if democrats organized in the red state like they did in ohio this time around or like they did in florida this time around or like they did in one or two other states this time around, those red states would send the numbers that nancy pelosi needs to become speaker again. and that s going to happen if the republicans keep thinking like mitt romney. you know, that s the question, ashley, and that is as you see the demographic changes, younger voters tend to be more liberal. we have a lot of hispanic people moving into the country, having a lot of kids and voting and being citizens, becoming part of the political process more than ever. and you
