the white house is trying to achieve? is this an obvious play for younger voters or is this just an attempt to -- or an attempt to expand on their social networking which was so successful in their fundraising? >> i think it's both. i think you're right that the obama administration really made its mark using social media specifically facebook and tools like youtube during its campaign to the white house. now that it's there, it's really expanding that. the administration has always seen social media as a way to connect to a broader swath of the american public. yesterday in a preview conference call with reporters, the white house staff said it's no longer sufficient just to go will you the mainstream media channels to reach voters and citizens. so this is a way of expanding that social media outreach. it's not the first time of course that the white house has done this. also this year it has held facebook town haul as well as youtube town hall. this is an extension of that. of course, it is also a way to

and iphones and ipads an lap tops. they are on facebook and twitter and e-mail. that's how they communicate now. not just they get news but information from friends and relatives and everything else. he is going to voters where they live. but chris, this is new in that sense. but this is also very old and another important way. as long as i can remember, every president has tried to go around the filter, as bush liked to call it. go around the filter of the main stream media. clinton did it by going on are a sinno hall and larry king. bush did it by talking it regional reporters. now president obama is doing it by going to facebook or a twitter town hall. this is a way of avoiding the traditional east room press conference talking to the press corps. >> so he doesn't have to fight his way to the public. he doesn't have to even defend himself. he just broadcasts. here is my question. i love the metaphor, i go to the end of my drive way in the

tabloids. it's a conspiracy in the mind of a lot of french people. but there is another half of the population that thinks this man who was almost president or could almost have been president of france is really not the man they want to have in that position. and if there are 50% that say he should come back, 50% say he should not. >> let me read a quote from your article. once the public recovers from the tabloid whiplash that portrayed straus-kahn as le perv for weeks -- then suddenly decided on scant evidence that his immigrant was a prostitute and it will be one that calls into question not only his morals but perhaps more important for a man who would be or would have been president his judgment. what are they like in france as far as coming back from a reputation like this even if he's not convicted, even if these charges are dropped? >> i think that's exactly right. as things cool off a little bit,

my book "section, mom & god" and one of the things i talk about is charting the course of the religious right from their beginnings in the 1980s with the anti-abortion movement that my family had something to do with to the present, and the fact of the matter is they have always engaged in these culture war topics when it comes to primary voters, this small core of hard right religious voters, and then they have to change later, but you've got to understand something, and that is that michele bachmann and the others on the far right of the republican party have moved the whole party so far right that they are no longer a normal political party. they are out of the mainstream to the extent that she represents a fringe. the problem is that fringe controls the nomination process in the primaries, and you have to understand that the liability they run is that when the general public gets a look at this, they are going to run a long way away, so that's the bind they are in, appeal to the fringe in the primaries or the
