people from all over the country have come. this is not home grown, this is not astro turf, the movement in wisconsin, but we are having people from all over the country helping us to go forwards and move forward. because in wisconsin our motto is forward. so we are on a momentous swing like you would not believe. last night was not pretty, but tomorrow we will survive and we will thrive. you are talking to a guy who loves natural turf. thank you very much. in all sports of events such as this, thank you sir. state senator spencer coggs in illinois. john nichols on site in madison for nation magazine. coming up, emotions run high in peter king s testimony. we ll get to this in a second. this scene today with keith ellison is in the history books with the mccarthy hearings. what did it accomplish? king has problems. he went out to do something today and got the opposite thrown at him. we ll be back with what happened today in the hearings of the so-called radicalization of
