predecessor. president obama has come under fire for putting too much blame on the bush administration. joining me now to discuss it fox news contributor liz cheney who happens to be the daughter of one of the men that our current president thinks is to blame for a lot of the troubles that the nation has undergone over the past four years. your thoughts on that closing message by mitt romney. well, i think that governor romney is exactly right. i think that you ve got a situation where probably it s unprecedented for a president this late in his administration to continue to blame his predecessor. and, you know, i listen to president obama and his spokes people saying, we have to come together as a nation, we have to work together, and it s almost as though they think people will forget they ve been in the oval office for the last four years. there is a track record there. and it s true, we have to work together, but he certainly hasn t done that, and, you know, i see no reason to th
victory was inevitable. when romney was pulling ahead in the polls, that was called tightening. when obama was pulling ahead in the polls it was obama pulling away the race. they are never outraged about the things that would outrage them about george w. bush whether it s drone strikes or benghazi and calling the death of an ambassador a bum in a rode. these are the kind of things the mainstream media prided itself and has seen these things as inconvenient and trivial when they are inconvenient for barack obama. i ll say the media certainly in terms of news didn t give newt any harder of a time about his extracurricular activities than they did with bill clinton. so i don t know if the media is biased in that sense. i think the media focused on the
wrong care. i don t care who newt had an affair with or bill clinton. there is something to the fact that most of the media is located in new york city and washington and you get a more liberal members of the press corps as a result of where they are ran they live. that s undeniable. i will say that george bush went to war with a very complacent media saying there were weapons of mass destruction. nobody really looked into it too much except for a few left-leaning newspapers. soy wouldn t say the media has done a good job in either case of get together bottom of what voters need them to get to the bottom of. megyn: there is a question of whether we reached a new level where the media loves a president. there have been many segments we have had when we talk about if mitt romney is running against the forth estate in addition to
thinking something is going on there on the romney side. that s where something is breaking. it s just the way i m seeing it. megyn: you write in your piece how he appears to have caught his stride. you say something old is roaring back. you were critical of him and his campaign not so long ago. but you have seen a shift. talk about that. i didn t even know it was 7 weeks ago that i had been critical. i felt that the romney campaig campaign i feel off point to say it today but to go back i felt the campaign was unfocused, that it was relatively joyless. that it wasn t speaking to the big issues of the time. thattist just hadn t come together, yet i must say the past week or so even as we have all been distracted by the storm and we have been distracted by the polls. i look at the romney campaign
there, it s open, it s waiting for us. i need your work, i need your help, i need your votes, walk with me. let s walk together. tomorrow we begin a new tomorrow.
