because both powerball and mega millions have added more white balls to the mix, and so it is harder to get the matches, and once my ticket wins, i have to figure out do i want the 30 years of annual payments or do i want the cash prize which would give me about $528 million before taxes, and for those of you in new york, you will lose even more money on the taxes, and new york has the highest lottery tax that they take away after the federal taxes as well. again though, we talked to people who play the lottery everyday. and one man, derek said that he won $50 and that is good luck for the mega millions ticket. >> i want to take care of my family and provide for a beautiful woman i date and things of that nature and help friends and people, and a lot of things that we can do with that. i hope that right person who gets it does the right thing with it. >> it is a lot of money. >> a lot of money, and god bless anyone with it.
it's hard to see how wade biden/harris ticket wins. yet the two biggest keys going for him video feels few things going for you -- you always win reelection. of roaring economy, low on employment, rising wages. okay good, i feel safe in my job, i'm doing well overall in terms of my finances, and things are good. and then you have peace abroad. no major conflicts. but covid game team but in the singular issue without actually having to campaign. and now it is put up or shut up on key issues, lawrence. inflation, 86% of voters are very worried about inflation. that's a tax on everyone. it hits the poor and middle-class the most. they don't have that much money to go around here they are changing the way they shot. the president is underwater on the economy come away under water like levels on immigration. violent crime obviously a huge problem with no solutions and police resigning and retiring at record numbers.
their scripted latino outreach effort is on display in florida where rick scott is up for re-election. he chose carlos quinn terra as lieutenant governor for his running mate. he would be the first hispanic to hold office if the ticket wins. many see it as a a move to bolster support of the hispanic community. on thursday, the florida house passed a bill 81-33, which would give in-state tuition rates to children of undocumented immigrants. now, the outreach effort hit a snag last thursday with rumors of racism among scott's campaign staff. the governor's top fund-raiser, mike fernandez, resigned. "the miami herald" reports that fernandez sent an e-mail to top scott allies complaining about two campaign aides, joking in an insensitive cartoon style mexican accent in route to a
>> reporter: i have to be honest. i'm a pragmatist. i would love it it if this ticket wins, but i'm open about my real chances here. the odds of anyone winning are 1 in 175 million. i know that might be a number that means nothing to people, so we'll give you context in a minute. but the odds might be higher here at this store because last march there was a $1 million winniwin ing ticket. it's not just the lottery winner who gets money. here's the store's recognition. the store itself got $10,000 last year. that was just from that $1 million winning ticket. so let's look at a graphic what that means, 1 in 175 million for a win tonight. how about holes in one on a golf course? if you were to strike consecutive holes in one on a par 3 course, the odds of that
tonight. i think the wrestle be metaphor is not a bad one. he's the bigger guy with more weight on him, the guy who wrestles you to the ground. ryan is quicker, wired and more nimble kinds of a kung fu fighter. it will be interesting. i hate to use a sports metaphor but i think that's what we are in for tonight. megyn: ed rollins, senior romney advisers say if ryan wins or it's a draw the romney-ryan ticket wins. >> i think ryan will win. even though biden ran more president he got 1% last time before he dropped out. he hasn't had great appeal. sarah palin with her lack of experience stood toe to toe on him. ryan is the smartest republican on the hill. you will find a tough opponent who knows the issues better than
sell to republicans in congress? the answer is paul ryan. we saw his edition for arguing against the more expanded and more expensive medicare program. i think we'll see a lot like that from paul ryan over the next four years if the romney/ryan ticket wins. >> i don't believe that's true, but i do believe if you are sworn in as mitt romney on january 21st or whatever it is in 2013, you look at the economy and will be like, man, we need some stimulus. paul ryan, bro, do you mind going up to the house and selling them on stimulus? that i do believe we'll see. it will be all tax cuts. michelle glober. >> i think we have known for a while, but it is especially significant with ryan on the ticket, we are talking about the money, the medicare debate, the medicaid debate is a lot more significant. the romney/ryan plan would decimate medicaid. it would throw the poorest americans, women and children u off the rolls all over the country. it would just be a human catastrophe. >> we'll talk about that tomorrow and focus tomorrow on the medicaid portion of it and
warrants. in the meantime, we're going to talk a little bit about the tea party. if the romney/ryan ticket wins in november, it'll put a tea party member just a heartbeat away from the oval office. we saw what happened in 2010. matt kibbe is the author of "hostile take over," he's also the president and ceo of freedomworks. so, matt, you know paul ryan relatively well. you met about 20 years ago on capitol hill? >> yeah. we worked together as associates on the house budget committee when john kasich was first getting his start. jenna: you like him personally? >> yes. he's exactly what you see on the stage. he's easy going, he's thoughtful. he's a bit of a wonk, but he's passionate about these issues, and he's been willing to talk about things as a legislator that a lot of politicians haven't been willing to touch. and i think that's why tea partiers and activists, people that care about the size of government, are really attracted
