obama s hometown, to hand over illegal immigrants being held in jail. but the county stopped cooperating with federal immigration agents several years ago. this comes after the justice department sued states like arizona and want to enforce federal immigration laws on their own. jenna: it is a tougher minor, but it is the truth. we build out banks and financial firms. that is the one thing we did. now they are going to put a tax on every single stock trade. proponents say that the wall street to pay the money back to the government. so far, the president is not getting behind the robin hood tax, but it is an idea. everyone is looking for money somewhere, william, because you have that big debt and deficits gillett. yes, and there s a lot of money here. what you are making has surprised some supporters of the president, that he would be among the first for a financial
him only as jack the gripper. and john wayne embracey. jenna: ask permission first. jon: he apparently tricks them into hugs. they re trying to decide whether it s legal or not. jenna: if you don t have enough to worry about, there is that story. jon: there is that. jenna: well, then there s this. this is really no laughing matter. a world famous economist who forecast the financial crisis says next year could be worse than anything we ve seen. in fact nouriel roubini also known by the way as dr. doom, is predicting a economic storm of after economic problems. double-dip recession is rising, eurozone collapse is increasing and time and tools needed to fix our economy are simply running out of the his suggestion to you is batten down the hatches. is this true? joining us now, mark madsen, founder and yo of madsen money and author of main street money. there is his book.
time for their flight, they re okay. isn t that part of the problem? i think it is. and can, you know, that s kind of one of the luxury luxuries and one of the benefits of our system today is where pilots can live in less expensive areas. a lot of these carriers are based in big cities, you know, san francisco, new york, chicago. the cost of living s pretty high, and a lot of pilots aren t making a lot of money, so they do have the alternative to be flying from other locales. but for some of those folks who are flying cross country or flying overnight flights, that s a big problem. again, same problem we saw in the flight last year, arrived first thing in the morning and didn t fly until 9:00 that night. that s not a good recipe there. but i think these new rules do take into account some of what they call deadheading or transportation time when they are just passengers flying on the plane. jon: scott brenner, good to have your expertise. thank you. thanks, jon. jenna: after a seri
but we shouldn t overstate the advantage. i think the president here is still in a good position. right. and as you pointed out earlier i mean mitt romney was taking on his republican challengers for a long time. president obama was able to the sit on whatever contributions he had. so he has had, what, $100 million head start in funding. yeah. if that. and it s where he was able to put it. he was able to get his campaign and his nationwide infrastructure up and running so that by the time mitt romney was the nominee, the president already had a full architecture to combat the romney campaign. that doesn t mean romney can t win or shouldn t win if the circumstances allow. challenger candidates have won from time to time. it s been a regular occurrence. so it would be no excuse. and clearly, the romney fund-raising machine is really good. i ve talked to republicans in washington who, themselves have been rather astonished at the ability of mitt romney to raise money and so quickly.
jon: to the campaign trail, now, in america s election headquarters, and a new report that political ads attacking governor romney s business career may be backfiring on the obama campaign. according to an article in the national journal, the president s team has handily outspent romney and his allied super pacs pouring $ed $91 million. but for all that effort the numbers haven t moved much at all. and a look at the polls supports that premise. this recent survey showing the race neck and neck, 47% for each challenger in this, in this washington post/abc news poll. let s talk about it with charlie hurt, a columnist for the washington times. so the president is out there in his advertising, i guess, trying to make mitt romney seem like an unacceptable alternative to himself, trying to paint him as an out-of-touch rich guy who made a lot of money, is that essentially what they re trying
