as you know over the weekend, santorum and gingrich opened up on romney and decided to make it a big issue in the closing days before the new hampshire primary. they will hit him hard on that and the sound that you just played will come into play in the news cycle today. it s a gaffe, a real gaffe and it expoeses him on an issue heading into south carolina and certainly the people in chicago that collect video the way that they do are laughing and smiling over having that piece of sound to use in the fall. i thought i heard someone say you could hear david axelrod s tail wagging. it was picked up on not two hours after it was aired. jon huntsman came out with this.
the election. when women and independent voters listen to that and it will be replayed over and over again, they will say he is not come passionate. let s talk about the guy that is trying to take votes away from romney who is jon huntsman who is already on the attack for this comment specifically. you know, i think he is an interesting case, we talked about him a lot on the show, he is a big head scratcher. out there, what is the sense, some polls had huntsman in second place, we see him rising finally in the polls, will he be able to guest lift going into south carolina and florida? alex, i think the question is, hunting man is clearly to move here. ppp poll has him moving up four point skps ron paul fading a bit. the internal polls have the same thing. they sort of thing he is that tie with ron paul in second place and i say, moving up, and
talk about the early days as a capitalist talking about his first days at staples. we have a bit of sound, positioning him more as a hands on manager. let s hear that. when we decided to get behind a company called staples when i knew you would know well. do you know how many people work there? 90,000 people work there today. we opened the very first store, i was there the night we hoped the first store. we helped stock the shelves. we stocked the shelves. just in terms of poll numbers. we have a tracking poll that said, sorry, in another poll, romney has fallen for five day straight and down ten points. huntsman and paul are gaining. is this stuff going to hurt him?
thing. they sort of thing he is that tie with ron paul in second place and i say, moving up, and the end, the momentum is what matters. i think the two questions will matter. one one is will he finish in second place. if he continues to tick downward and will get a double digit victory, does mitt romney end up with fewer votes than he got in 2008 or fewer votes than in iowa, that may make him look vulnerable and huntsman s second place finish look stronger, then the question is, does jon huntsman have enough money to go to south carolina and florida and get on the air. without any money it won t matter. 53 has mon if he has money, and he gets up in the air in south carolina and florida, he could do damage to mitt romney in both of those
costs millions dollars. it s a different race. and also the things that are making huntsman popular will make hit unpopular in other states. 1 messaone message works in state and not in others. thank you john for being our man. thanks, alex. the voting takes place and candidates are already folking on south carolina. that is next on now. he was a 21st century global nomad home was an airport lounge and an ipad made sure his credit score did not go bad with a free-credit-score-dot-com app that he had downloaded it in the himalayas while meditating like a true playa now when he s surfing down in chile a he can see when his score is in danger
