and you know, i can say having served ron brown and worked for his campaign to become the first african-american chairman of the democratic party or of any national party, that michael steele is no ron brown in getting the party ready for the midterms. rick: matt, i just have to ask you, maybe you have some behind the scenes information that you could share with us, because i would have to imagine that there are some republicans who are in talks with michael steele right now, as we all speak here on fox, you know, and that some of them might be saying it s time to go, michael, time to hang it up, and yet, we watched the sunday shows and we showed a clip, you know, prior to introducing you gentlemen t. seems like a lot of republicans at least on television in public are kind of going easy on him. well, the problem is that it doesn t help republicans to engage in a sort of messy coup right now. again, realistically speaking, it s very difficult to oust a chairman of the rnc, and attemp
about the visit, that there was no photo op, it was a big deal in israel, and so they re taking a very different turn at the white house, they are really embracing netanyahu, some people in the u.s. are reading into it as something maybe obama needs to do before midterms in november, especially for the democrats whose seats are in jeopardy in the house and senate. israelis are looking to see how it all unfolds tomorrow, rick. rick rick reena nina ninan, thank you very much. martha, over to you. martha: are there hundreds of russian spies in the united states now? there are new reports that there are more moles in the startling details of the story, plus a horrifying scene at a fourth of july parade, see this drama that played out. it happened so fast, they ran so fast, that we didn t even see him coming until they were here. it was in panic mode, oh my goodness, the horse is charging but my fear was the little kids.
awarded by the u.s. government. and it could go to a service member to survived to tell the tale. that s coming up. martha: senate majority leader harry reid possibly in line to get an endorsement that you would list never see attached to his name. they may be throwing their support behind the nevada democrat. wait until you hear who i m talking about. rick: keep the jaws music. prime conditions for great whites in the northeast. a new warning for a popular vacation spot. boss: and now i ll turn it over to the gecko.
an appropriate decision. whether or not he resigns is up to other people than me. but i need to see him focus on this november election, which is important, because the democrat party is iraning our running our country in a ditch with the economy, our job situation, the debt situation, we need a chairman who s focused. rick: matt lewis is with poll fiction.com, david mercer, a democratic strategist. matt, let me start with you. the holiday weekend, a lot of people focused on barbecues and fireworks. it seems to me this would be the perfect time for michael steele to sort of very quietly, underneath the headlines, go off some place far, far away. why is he still the chairman of the rnc? the rope he s still the chairman is the only way to get rid of him would be for two-thirds of the rnc members to vote him out. that would be messy and it would actually distract from going into the 2010 election. personally, i think he should step down on his own.
they want every country to put sanctions against iran if they could have their way, including the european union. so expect netanyahu to bring that up with obama. also the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, admiral mullen, has had 13 visits with his israeli counterpart and the focus of the visits have been to make sure that israel doesn t launch a surprise attack on iran. so expect those talks to continue and the focus to still be on sanctions, rick. rick: reena, one more question. there have been a lot of people in this country who have wanted to see president obama come out more vocally in support of israel. a feeling on the part of a lot of jews in the united states that this president does not have israel s back the way that other white house administrations have had in the past. is that feeling shared in israel? are there a lot of israelis who would like to hear more forceful and supportive language from the american president? reporter: well, i think everyone is looking to
