name on that ticket. oh, no, no, no, no, no. at this point, carson s new ad buy, $500,000 in iowa, new hampshire, south carolina and nevada, what about their ground games, jackie, at this point, for both carson and trump? that has always been the question. now, carson, you see his people out there. you really and you have recently. now, trump, it seems like he s building his ground game. we ve seen him hire staffers in various early states. he has started acting like a real candidate, and particularly in iowa this matters, because you ve got to convince people you hear people say this a lot to go out to an elementary school on a cold night in february to cast a vote for you. and so, we ll see what they can do to really, to drum up the enthusiasm for their candidates and make sure people get out there. but you are seeing them starting to spend money to do that. all right, jackie and matt. thank you so much. have a great weekend. we ll see you both soon, i m sure. thank you
lack of ground game he has in some of these states is going to spur more of it. because he operates like any predator who s being threatened. i would also add that ross perot, to continue to comparison, which i think is apt, he had one of the best ground games in history. he had people getting him on the ballot in 50 states. you don t need to start hiring staff sometimes. you can have people inspired to work to you. and to the surprise of many, trump is starting to have that. i also think another area where this shtick is at a kind of right angle to republican ideologies on campaign finance, the thing that i find most fascinating about his routine so far is the donor class trader routine. i was a donor, i know how it works. you give these people money, they re puppets for you. i m the only one independent. this is him talking about campaign finance and the current citizens united regime. take a listen. i love the idea of campaign finance reform. and one of the things you should do
i m great. it s my ninja working out. you re looking strong. people forget, what states did you win in 2012? iowa, minnesota, missouri, colorado, louisiana, kansas, alabama, mississippi, i m going to get in trouble now. oklahoma, tennessee, north dakota. there you go. that s a significant number of states. yeah. most people i think, don t know that. am i wrong or right? well, i would say that s probably true. but, you know, that s we look at that as great experience. we ve got great ground games in all of those states. we have good people that have been committed to us over this period of time. we have experience. we ve been through the vetting process. i was number one late in the election process in march. i was leading the polls against mitt romney. and had we had a little better luck in michigan and ohio. we lost michigan by a few
spread and saying where do i want to put my money. and right now scott walker is looking like a winner are and this is good for him. there are no ground games yet. it is funny named packs that they are running money through. and where is the ground game and there. and who will play well in a state like iowa and caucus base is fickle and can turn on a dime. it is very far out now and we are talking the flavor of the month. and all right. the democrats have the one flavor of the month that would be hillary clinton. and oh dear. and michael baron has written a piece in which he suggests that it may not be smooth sailing for the former first lady in part the foreign policy front things are not going so
we worry about our own jobs, our husband s jobs. you mean not just our ovaries? it s not all about our ovaries? no. by the way, we don t have an orthodoxy that we all agree on everything. but beyond that, we have to combat that with facts. the facts are always on our side. for those democratic women to say this is an assault on our ability to intervene between us and our doctors is a lie. why can t they just be honest? why can t they just be honest and say, look, this is why it s bad. a lot of women rely on the iud. and now they won t be able to get coverage of that if they can t afford it out of pocket. we could have an honest debate about it. they set up straw men that try to demonize half the country and divide women, divide women and that shuts down effective debate. that s right. this is propaganda. this is not political debate. political debate should be based on mutual respect and facts. so what is your group going to do? what we re going to do is first of all we kno
