maybe. and i ll give you a couple of other thoughts on huntsman. a mormon with youth talk and you wanted to send a message to mitt, hey, you are not the only moderate republican mormon that we know. kind of get under his skin a little bit. i m not saying that s happening but it s part of the dynamic here. the weird part about the whole thing is that you have all the candidates, supposed leading candidates and you tell me what they have in common. different philosophies and backgrounds. a pit bull like rudy giuliani, a republican kind of normal guy like mitt, general petraeus who comes with a whole other set of advantages and disadvantages. if there s a rational part to this process, i m not smart enough to figure out what it is. yeah. it is tough going, especially this time of year. brian, okay, let s turn to trump s renewed threat against job outsourcing. we have this 35% penalty he says he wants to impose for companies sending jobs abroad.

you say thing aren t perfect, but i m the guy who getting it here. what you need, what you want, what you re worried about. the other guy, he s worried about the 1%. that s this argument they re trying to make. i think susan might be on to something in dissecting the messaging. when putting together the betting on america and the claim of romney being the outsourcer in chief. you know, the principle being that barack obama is betting on americans and america and meanwhile, his opponent is betting on that which may take place overseas. tapping into the narrative not only of job outsourcing but the issue of more offshore accounts. is that what you were saying? that is what i m saying. to the point that chris was making, here s the question that i think a lot of voters have. who stands up for me? who can i trust to keep my interests at heart and that is the point that the white house is trying to make. that the president has the middle class in his mind. in some ways, t a tough messag
