moved over only in the sense, joe, the plan absolutely replaces medicare with a voucher program. i know. but democrats democrats touch medicare in 2009, they lose in 2010 because of it. now, democrats are using meh mehdi medi-scare to beat republicans. i m not sure we lost in 2010 because we touched medicare and the obama health care plan. there was more to it. sure, what really is instructive here, we re trying to knock out tore this group is trying to knock out mitt romney in the primaries. we don t want to face mitt romney. a romney pawlenty ticket, i said it before is the most credible general election ticket. of the team they have on the field now by far, i would worry the most about mitt romney. team him up with tim pawlenty. you suddenly have a massachusetts and minnesota guy. no. you have a 16 rational guy. he flip-flopped, not perfect but
