this was to be the last night, almost the last hour. i heard the splash. bob campbell, a police recruit, jumped to his feet down beside the chattahoochee river. i was really startled. it sounded like a body entering the water. he looked up at the bridge. and i saw brake lights of a car coming. i saw red lights. the car started slowly moving away from me across the bridge. campbell radioed the other team members up above him. i asked, did a car stop on the bridge? because i couldn t believe what i saw. and each person told me they didn t see it. then a policeman in a chase car hidden on the other side came on the radio. he just said, the car is pulling in the parking lot here turning around in front of me and started coming back across the bridge, coming back in my direction. this is that white statn wagon. police followed it and stopped it nearby. fbi agent mike mccomas rushed to the scene. the driver was standing by the highway. he was talking with the
erin burnett. and the market looking for the slightest bit of good news, and got a little bit today and surged. the dow is up 213 point, the reason, the jobs numbers for july was better than anyone was looking for. the total number, 163,000 jobs created last month. the prediction was 100,000. we need about 125,000 jobs created per month, just to keep up with population growth. so this report does that. but look at the rest of the year. i mean, we haven t been able to clear that hurdle since march. it s been a really grim stretch. so there was a little bit of relief today. the bottom line is this. the american economy only has to add another 316,000 jobs to get back to where it was in january 2009 when barack obama took office. now, that would mean that he breaks even. but remember, in january of 2009, the economy was in a really bad place, and what he needs to do to make people feel really good, like the economy is recovering, is not only to break even for himself, but get ba
the situation room . we begin with the state of unemployment in america, just three months before election day. both democrats and republicans have something to seize on in the newest jobs report. employers say they added 163,000 jobs to the u.s. economy in july. that s better than economists expected, and something for the obama camp to hang its hat on. but the romney camp is pointing to this figure, the overall unemployment rate unexpectedly rose to 8.3%, because american households report losing 195,000 jobs. we want to bring in our white house correspondent, dan lothian. so sounds like kind of a wash, politically, dan. it does. and what the president is trying to do is highlight the positive, as you pointed out. yes, the unemployment rate did tick up to 8.3%, but what they re focused on is the fact that jobs were created, more jobs than expected. the experts out there, economists had expected that some 95,000 jobs would have been created last month, but as you pointe
outfront tonight, mitt makes a bold promise. 12 million jobs. take a look at this ad in the wall street journal. written my romney s top economic advisor. first of all i want to draw your attention to the cartoon. there is obama on a tortoise with a whip. and romney on a horse going so fast that his tie and horse tail are flying in the wind. what was it supposed to be the tortoise and the hare? the newspaper denied the catchy cartoon but every word was written by glen hubbard. here in the second to last paragraph is the claim. president romney would create about 12 million new jobs in his first term and millions more after that. which means, just to get to 12 million the first term, 250,000 jobs each and every single one of his 48 months in office. he says he will do that by cutting regulations and cutting taxes. does it add up? first the good news. there have been a few times in american history where this has happened. the chief economists of jp morgan notes it happened i
