whether or not they got it from somewhere else. to me it means they did. bill: bob, how are you going to figure that out? there are ways, and i ve done it in the past by getting people to look into it. i don t want to get into the details of it but we ve caught three campaigns doing that stuff. if you believe herman cain, the story that he told greta last night was so it was such a small deal. it wasn t anything that was sexual harassment at all, so he s right on that. my boss threw candy corn down my dress yesterday! bill: you win! see you at 5:00. see you at 5:00. martha: there s more to that candy corn story! thank you guys. how about this, she is a spy turned international sex symbol and we have new surveillance of this young woman. remember anna chapman? it could give us a clue about what she was doing in this country and when she realized the igwas up. bill: a solyndra scandal
firmly denies. here is whart of part of what cain told greta last night: a lot of people, in fact, have a problem with the fact that i m doing so well, and i m so likable. since they cannot shoot hole necessary my proposals, my plans, they re going to try to shoot hole necessary me, the candidate. so that s the reason that this is coming up now. bill: now, what about the cain campaign now? these guys are likable, daily news columnist andrea tantoras, bob bkel, cohost of the five on the fox news channel. how you guys doing? good, happy tuesday. bill: rand, steve grubbs is running cain s campaign in iowa, he says we ll land more precinct captains captains than ever before because of the stories. does this impact cain s campaign, does this give him a boost? i don t know about that. if politico if this story
is a farce, which he s admitted he was harassed before, politico does have a duty to tell us more but i don t know if this necessarily gives him a boost. i ve worked on campaigns before, i ve been the press secretary when these sort of scandals come up and his campaign should have gotten out ahead of this way in advance. they ve offered some conflicting statements, but we see based on the greta interview last night that there s no there there so look, the ground game in iowa is critical right now and what needs to happen in the gop establishment and the gop as a whole is they need to decide whether or not this hurts or helps herman cain. if it s something it s something women need to grapple with, if he did this and should they support him. bob, does it help or hurt? it certainly doesn t help but the idea of saying it s going to attract precinct captains in iowa, if you couldn t get them before this story and you re leading the polls it s probably unlikely this is going to be r
51 percent support it and 39 percent say they don t. let s talk about it with bob bkel, professor of advanced political study the at george washington university, andrea tantaros is conservative columnist and contributor to foxnews.com him welcome to both of you. good to be here. jon: bob, whatever happened to the concept that you follow the law in this country? we are a country of laws. why has this thing attracted so much attention and so much heat? well, let me just cli to claire try to clarify something. the law in arizona is not exactly like the federal law. first of all, federal law dictates immigration policy, it has since the beginning of immigration law, but having said that, the federal law does not, as the arizona law does, say that police must identify people, must ask them for their identification, must pursue them if they believe, if
why not trust the cops to do their job and enforce the law that is on the books? jon: what about it, bob? same reason that the cops are filing a suit down in arizona saying they don t want to go forward with this because they are put in a very difficult position. even the very conservative sheriff of mayor copia county thinks it s a bad law look t. puts the onous on the police officers. the federal government should do more, there should be more border protection, we know that, there hasn t been enough done with bush and now. but because of this, the arizona law, it s made this now a rekindled national issue which frankly in the short run doesn t help the democrats in november, will probably cost them, but in the long run, republicans are playing with fire. this is the fastest growing minority in america. let s keep in mind, 50 percent, 50 percent of the children born in america are brown. jon: let me cut this one short. the president has entered the rose garden, he s about to speak
