romney battling for that republican nomination and last night during our debate they did not disappoint, like this exchange: he was for race to the top, he is for omabacare, and now he s against it. i mean, we ll wait until tomorrow, and see which mitt romney we re really talking to tonight. governor romney? i ll use the same term again, nice try. governor, i wrote a book two years ago, and i laid out in that book what my views are on a wide range of issues. i m a conservative businessman. i haven t spent my life in politics. i spent my life in business. i know how jobs come, how jobs go. my positions are laid out in that book. i stand by them. governor perry, you wrote a book six months ago, you re already retreating from the positions that were in that book. not an inch, sir. bill: that was just a small sample from last night. we are pleased to have mark minor, national press secretary for rick perry s campaign down in orlando.
shouldn t be provided as a federal entitlement program. so what we have still yet to hear is how that would work at a state level, how would a state like florida afford social security for its residents. and i think that those are questions that they continue to dodge, and the american people have a right to know. bill: and they will get another shot at this in mid october, i think october 11th is the next republican debate. in other words, there was a lot of talk last night about immigration, illegal immigration, border security. but i was most curious to find out which candidate would actually go after barack obama the most effectively. mark, where do you think rick perry scored a point on that last night? it s clear the difference in this race between governor perry, who is a true conservative, knows he s running in a republican primary, versus mitt romney who made his health care plan exactly like omabacare, so they have more in common certainly than governor perry does with pres
passed, omabacare hadn t passed so changes are made for the climate, governor romney wrote about the government option, it wasn t included in omabacare when the paperback edition came out. those changes are reflected in the book. if the charge is that governor romney said that the massachusetts health care plan should be a plan that s instituted at a federal level, that s patently false. he even ran for president in 2008 on the exact same thing and gave speeches saying that that should not be it for the nation. bill: i apologize for inter interrupting you, i know it s rude. mark, i promise you more time next time around. there s a lot of things we have to go through and we will together. thank you, the cue is going to cut us off. martha:t was one of the most thought provoking questions of the night, brought out some very interesting answers. watch. i don t know how you would do this, but if you could take herman cain and
