all three members of casey s family have been on the stand in the last 24 hours and i have to tell you. what strikes me is, frankly, just how messed up this family seems to be. they re constantly contradicting each other. testifying for the defense, that re testifying for the prosecution s. that maybe what the defense is going after, that the jury will be so confused they ll throw their hands up and say, reasonable doubt? not only is the jury so confused, i m so confused. i don t know what the defense is going after. i mean, you can t trust this family. i m not sure you can trust this defense now and that s the problem. what is the defense trying to do? i i think the case is so messed up that it has to be disregarded and makes the state s case with the giant hole in the middle about cause of death look better because the jury s going to stand back and say, what else could have happened to this child which isn t really proof and i think how it falls in this case. casey s brother l

plenty of this. you know, i know you have been seeing a lot of politicians around lately. reporter: warmly courted by the president tuesday who stopped an aluminum manufacturer to talk jobs. iowa, you and i, we go a long way back. reporter: a few hours away, sarah palin brought her brand of celebrity to a movie premier attended by about 300 iowans. it is a wonderful story about american values. reporter: shot documentary style, the movie depicts palin favorably as a tough reformer in alaska. she had courage to try. she had taken on the system already. reporter: made by a conservative filmmaker who said palin cooperated but had no control over the film s content. i think it plays the tea party movement and i hope it energizes people to get engaged. we are still thinking about that. reporter: palin was asked about daughter brit toll s comments that mom decided whether she ll run or not. she definitely knows.
