see medicare lose four years of life. here is robert gibbs, senior advisor to the campaign. >> well, i think if he wants to protect medicare for his mother, then he should thank, first of all, president obama for what he's done in the past few years to extend the life of the medicare trust fund. to help seniors with their prescription drug costs, to help seniors get free preventive care. >> the president is going to continue pressing that case this week in key battle ground states starting tomorrow. he'll be in ohio, goes on to nevada. so obviously a lot of senior citizens out in nevada, in addition to the state of florida where paul ryan was this weekend. and this morning, we are going to see the republican ticket back together for the first time in several days. the romney-ryan ticket in new hampshire this morning pushing back on all this. >> steve: we've got a live camera in new hampshire. we'll see that promptly. edward, thank you very much for a live report from the white house. >> gretchen: time to bring in dana perino who is from "the five" and joins us on monday morning.
