romn romney are going to show up on the campaign trail, a little two for one punch, sooner than expected. what should that tell us? it tell us that perhaps when paul ryan has been out on his own, he may not be the brilliant campaign retailer that they thought. we saw that at the iowa state fair earlier in the week. whether or not romney says i embrace ryan s medicare plan, he has embraced ryan. so i think in the voters minds, that s going to be one in the same. i don t see any sort of hair splitting is going to get anywhere. they might as well embrace it at this point. our friday power panel. great to see all of you. thank you, thomas. it is my civic duty to tell the president to stop leaking information to the enemy. so a group of retired special opps and intelligence members criticized the president over security leaks and for taking credit over osama bin laden s
now passed in a lot of places. you ve beenรง advising the romn campaign. what gets you up in the morning? why is this the thing that animates you? well, this is an issue that affects so many other issues that all of us, i believe, should care about. one of them is, of course, unemployment. we re in theory worried about not being able to put food on the table. one way you help u.s. citizens and aliens who are authorized to work in the united states is you remove illegal labor from the equation. if they re competing against illegal labor, it is hard for americans to put food on the table and another one is security. five of the nine hijackers broke our immigration laws after they arrived in the united states. you have read the studies that we know when you actually and forget about human rights violations or due process or the core of who we are in the country of being in a country of
like, florida, virginia, ohio, toss-ups, wisconsin, iowa, nevada? i think i might put wisconsin, lean obama just a tad, but that about right. if you look at those numbers that means the president s sitting at 2950 to romn 250 to romney s 206. obama would win it just with florida or needs two of everything else. yeah. look, they ve got to take back the three red states that won in 08. virginia, north carolina and indiana. then they ve got to get back one of the mega states, ohio or florida. and if they do those things it get easier, but doing those two things isn t a small thing by any means. and the bain capital hit. ohio, about three states, frankly. iowa, wisconsin, ohio. absolutely. i think it hurts rormnmney.
9,42,435,000. and romn some of this super pac money is spent but this could be a game changer in this election unlike what we have seen in the past. it ll be a game changer. for my friends on the left, don t fret. trust me, barack obama will be more than capable of making up that grab between the super pacs. simply because you have to keep in mind, the obama super pac really didn t come on-line until a couple of months ago where as the other super pacs, whether karl rove or mitt romney, well engaged for over a year. so you have that disparity. that gap will close. and i think steve s point about, that romney messaging, he is absolutely right. there is a vulnerability there. but remember, romney also has a pivot fu pivot opportunity to make this not about my wealth or swiss accounts. nothing illegal. but the reality of it is is, the conversation boils down to what is in your bank account. what are you able to bring home in take home pay.
he s running against congress. that hasorked for him in the payroll tax fight but he still has to find that message for the state of the union, for whatever his nexplatform is going to be that is obviously the next one. to tell people how the cuntr can be better at a time where his only economic message can b it s not as bad as it could have been. it s better than it was. or and republicans will mae it worse. they ll take you back. there s a really interestg question for mitt romney next week. i think it s highly lily santorum will come out hereith a lot of energy. i don t mean second first. it will settle down, that will be what the medi will want. rick will come at it from the right. if you run on the romn campaign you ve got a choice, eitherust grind it out and have a contest on the right. you s you re pro-life. the white house is going to be giggling for tee months of that. or do you know you got the organizational strength and the depth and santoru it will be ke drinking fro
