again, why the long delay? was race a factor or is this just a local tragedy that s been turned into ideological fodder for television news. mitt romney wins the illinois primary but most of the chatter is about a top aide who likens it to a certain children s toy ze wanted to talk about his victory but the debate over this iconic children s toy, the etch-a-sketch threatens to erase all of that. our twitter turned that into a viral moment. plus define that. how far will you go. i don t want to campaign for candidates. he came up with the idea of televising what happens in congress and made c-span and its passionate callers part of the landscape. now he s stepping down as chief executive. this is reliable sources. it was back on february 26th that 17-year-old trayvon martin walking down the street was killed in the town of sanford, florida. the man who killed him is hispanic. it wasn t until ten days later that the killing drew a bit of national media att
a henderson. let s go to the gop primary in louisiana. with this delegate lead, the total number is widening and mitt romney s gap growing. how much will a win in louisiana really buy rick santorum? at the most, 20 delegates. he finds himself in a situation, santorum does, with this growing gap in a race all about delegate math and delegate count at this point. he is behind by about 300 delegates at this point. he sort of says, oh, this is romney math and he blames the press for buying into this delegate tally. but the truth is, as this thing goes on, this lead is likely only going to widen for mitt romney. santorum is going into an april where there s going to be tough, tough contests, big states. pennsylvania is up and he ll likely be able to win that.
charlotte, north carolina. the biggest rally taking place last night in sanford, florida. let s look at these image, a mass of people gathering not far from where trayvon martin was shot dead from george zimmerman february 26th, the gathering taking place hours after sanford s police chief temporarily stepped aside but did not step down. the governor of florida has assigned a new special prosecutor to this case as trayvon s parents again call for zimmerman s arrest. i stand before you today not knowing how i m walking right now, because my heart hurt for my son. trayvon is my son. trayvon is your son. just like to thank every one of you all for just showing us the love, the support, signing the petitions, and making sure that george zimmerman pay for what he did to your son. richard land is the president of the southern baptist conventions ethics and religious liberties commission. thank you for joining us this morning. you bet, glad to be with you. let me ask you y
chattanooga of all places. great report. reporter: thank you. jenna: thank you. jon: volkswagon. the right now the debate intensifies over narrowing the republican field as one gop statesman has a suggestion for rick santorum. it is time to consider dropping out. that advice comes from former senator and presidential candidate bob dole. dole who is supporting mitt romney said he spoke from experience after staying in the 1988 nomination fight too long. dole also said that the delegate math makes santorum s chances of overtaking mitt romney difficult. dole says, santorum has quote, got a real problem, end quote, because he says romney will increase his delegate lead in every race. is it a valid argument? joining us for a fair and balanced debate, fox news political analyst, angela mcglowan and doug schoen, former foal sister for president clinton. angela, you worked at some
santorum will win this weekend, and it will shift around. but i do think the most important thing that happened last night was newt gingrich s body language saying that mitt romney took a step toward consolidating as front-runner. so the most interesting man in the world has suddenly become a bill o reilly body expert. we are doing that now on morning joe. i m going to ask david, you have interviewed all of these candidates and you have watched these candidates and you will very soon i hope have governor romney on to walk through that process with him. how do you see from where we go today of the next we have a month to six weeks left here, about eight weeks left in this campaign. how do you see the delegate math counting up? todd was on your show a few weeks ago and laid out how you get to the 1144. do you see romney losing louisiana? does he pick steam back up in wisconsin and going forward enough to begin to settle these questions?
