like to do the show with an audience that simply does not want to hear it. there are true believers out there. there are the orange kool-aidedrinkers out thekool- e kool-aide drinkers. if they want to stay within that conservative crowd. that s our reality. thanks for being here. how the right let s its mind. what all of these powerful media men have in common
interestingly, in one of his first tweets, several times endorsed santorum. and indeed today. said something like, well, it just goes to show that real values do matter. which i thought was a very interesting observation from one of the world s most powerful media men. i think it s a great endorsement, getting it from rupert, absolutely. what do you think rupert meant by values do matter? and does santorum represent now, do you think, the core traditional values of the republicans perhaps better than any other candidate? well, he really is a very conservative guy. everybody will say that. he s very, very conservative in so many different ways. and his stance on between birth control and gay marriage and lots of other things, life, i mean, he s you know, he s definitely over there. there s no question about it. and there s a group of people that find that very, very appealing. and bob was one of those people. and you know, that endorsement was great.
jon huntsman s staking everything on new hampshire. tonight i ll ask him can he win that huge bet? plus wild card donald trump. he has a lot to say about the republican field. we re going to have him grade all the candidates. this is piers morgan tonight. good evening. we expected the iowa caucuses to be close but not that close. in a dramatic evening we saw mitt romney win by just eight points. and now we go on to new hampshire where he has a much larger lead at the moment. today he picked up an endorsement from the man he battled for the nomination last time around, john mccain. mitt romney and i and you believe that america s greatest days are still ahead of us. it just requires the kind of leadership to put us back in the position that made america the greatest and noblest experiment in the history of the world. and the person who will do that is right here with you today. president mitt romney. [ applause ] so good night for mitt romney and a very good night for
