Didnt hear any of that on the capitol steps. Didnt hear fighters for women being portrayed as suffrages. Didnt hear gay people standing up for their right to be here on gods earth. No. They all belong here. They are among us, they have of us, a good and worthy part of us. It was an astounding speech. And thats hardball for now. Thanks for being with us. Politicsnation with al sharpton starts right now. Thanks, chris. And thanks to you for tuning in. Tonights lead. Taking the fight to the gop. The president spent the morning at his final inaugural event. A Prayer Service at the national cathedral. Meantime, republicans spent the morning complaining. Complaining that his inaugural address was too tough, too strong, not enough olive branches. Apparently their feelings were hurt. Senator mccain says quote, i would have liked to have seen some more outreach. Senator thune says he wasnt doing the kind of outreach he needs to do. Senator collins says i had hoped his speech would be a little l

The president play . He hit the ball well. Got an amazing touch. He can certainly chip and putt. If he ever spent after these four years if he spends more time playing the game of golf, im sure he can get to where hes a pretty good stick. So tiger, level with us. Did you let the president win .

Unlikely to find such a candidate. But unless they do, theyre stuck in second place, nationally. They cant beat Hillary Clinton, thats for sure.

Oif got two former party chairs with me, republican Michael Steele and democrat ed rendell, both msnbc political analysts. Lets start with the president this morning in the stark terms he laid out for republicans. Its not just the economy that will suffer from the looming cuts next week. Thats march 1st. National se
