the board, literally shut most down. ask romney how he will do that. how to cut from the discretion anywhere budget and did he mention one thing about how to create jobs? no. he would cut taxes to increase deficit. a full scale from a foolish position. not very smart. andrea: moving off the coal is a good removing obstacles is a plan. removing obstacle. regulations. i want you to react to polls recently. it seems like romney has the right strategy, he is focusing on the economy. who would be better to improve the economy, romney 46. obama 39. another one, who would do a better job at cutting spending? bob, i know you think that some of the bloated programs shouldn t cut 5. 1-31 51-31. who would be better to handal healthcare? 43/40%. romney is a little down on that. eric: what we didn t play, hoping to get to that, mitt romney addressed what he would do with obamacare.

he answered the call. give every state a waiver. bob: of what? eric: of obamacare. bob: he said let the free market put the healthcare industry together and it will work better. it has had the healthcare industry. the government hasn t had it. you want to turn it over to those fools? eric: absolutely. bob: there is an idea. david for context, he is talking about competition across state lines. that s one thing that obama could have got in the bill and didn t. bob: he should have. then why doesn t he say it? dana: i don t know. andrea: i agree with you a little bit on this. bob: thank you. andrea: it s a vulnerability. obamacare is a lot like obamacare. they re difference eric: don t just jump out of there on that one. you know better than that. send it to the state level and give every state a waiver and you have done that.
