i think he has a great respect for mitt romney. obama and clinton will be in lock step in this campaign this fall. clinton will be out campaigning for barak obama. it is wishful thinking for the republicans to take false hope from any statements he may have made about romney s business career. that s simply not going to be what s said this fall. we like what he said so far. bill clinton will campaign every place that he can be helpful and he can be help envelope a loft swing states. heather: to be fair, it should be noted clinton did predict obama would beat governor romney by five or six points in november. so finally as we wrap up what, does this mean for the obama campaign? who does this benefit the most is it brad, you think it benefits governor romney. so congressman frost? look, the election is in november. it s not right now. this is something a little passing story that the press like to talk about. the election will be decided in september and october and a lot of swin
with mayor booker of newark when he spoke the truth about the president s baseless attacks on bain capital, or governor rendell, the former governor of pennsylvania when he spock the truth and told the white house to cut it out examine the obama campaign with attacking marketplace economics and the work, the stellar work, if i can quote president clinton, of mitt romney and the business world. the fact is, president clinton is telling the true, mitt romney is more than qualified to be president. in fact, more qualified than barak obama was in 2008. in 2008, barak obama was famous for being famous. in 2012, mitt romney is famous for cleaning up the olympics, for having them go off without a hitch, for being the governor of a very blue state of massachusetts, and as well as being a successful business person. so yeah, this will certainly create a rift in the white house will try and push back. but bill clinton will do what bill clinton is going to do. heather: congressman frost,
the gop? this is not just about rick santorum bowing out or suspending his campaign. it s about much more than that. there you see two fingers. two-minute warning again? they have got their balance. they are good. live tv, folks, we love it. i want to bring in former howard dean campaign director joe trippi. joe, it does appear rick santorum is about to suspend his campaign given what we have heard from newt gingrich and ron paul and his delegates that the republican nomination is now over. it certainly is. this is a big step for the romney campaign in santorum does suspend his campaign. the amazing thing is the campaign santorum brought to this. no one would have given him a chance prior to iowa coming anywhere but dead last in the pack, and to be in a lot of ways

the issue off the table. depending on what happens in june it could be just the easiest thing in the world to say, i care about healthcare, i did something in my state that was controversial. but it was constitutional. unlike this president s law. we ll see what five, maybe six justices decide. that would be a huge help not just to the country. i think it s a monstrous piece of legislation. but in the shorter term in the political sense for the romney campaign where obama-care is struck down by one of the more well-respected bodies in american society, i think romney more than anyone else is crossing his fingers and hoping for a good outcome. megyn: we are watching a little bit more action. there has been an uptick in the number of men in the corridor. we are watching and waiting for that now as we are about 15 minutes beyond what was the
