going to escalate into nuclear war or i would like to see some day tant. this is not the kind of campaign these candidates want but it s escala escalated. romney was romney seemed more relaxed than usual. and animated and used the word hate. that s a stronger word than lie in some ways in our politics. if somebody accused me of killing their wife, i think hate would be a word that i might feel quite comfortable doing. by the way, they started running that ad on tv yesterday. just think about it. just think about it. you re in politics and your children have to see run over and over and over again, a man saying that your dad killed his wife. and he doesn t even care. i ll just leave that to the audience to answer whether that rises to the level of hate or not. all right. the romney campaign is calling comments vice president joe biden made in virginia yesterday a new low in the election. the vice president described the
priorities usa senior strategist bill burton told abc news it was a station error. the ad has racked up 700,000 it wasn t supposed to run? it wasn t supposed to run? it s funny. i ve run in a lot of campaigns and i usually find that errors worked the other way, arianna, they don t run your ads when you pay for them this whole campaign, though, both sides people are looking at it going let me out. i m feeling what is ironic when he picked paul ryan, we kind of thought for a moment we re going to get away from have a real conversation. latest gaffe and accusation and charges and counter charges and move on to a real debate about the role of government, the nature of capitalism, et cetera. well, it lasted about three hours. and now we re back on chains and unchained and this way in which immediately when romney made the comments in england he was told
that boston watches, hey, boston, you got to get romney and ryan together every day between now and the convention. they look better together. they re more energized together. talk about running the numbers together too. don t be sarcastic. they do it. it is the bill clinton/al gore effect as chris mathews said yesterday, he was dead on. get those two together. because they both make each other look better. but there s the alternative, which is cover more ground and so they re trying to figure that out now. not if they re going to do it badly. not covering ground in august. when you roll out your new vp, it s a national campaign to make sure he doesn t get quailed or palined and you get the two together, don t you? chris was dead on yesterday. the odd thing is, just viewing the campaign thus far, romney is a far better performer, far more confident performer, when paul ryan is alongside him. sure is. great with paul ryan. it s unusual to watch.
budget. we don t take more cuts to the medicare. i am on the romney ticket and what mitt romney is proposing is to repeal all of obama care. the budget plan that you re now supporting would get to balance when? well, there are different the budget plan that plr is supporting get mitt romney is supporting gets us down to 20% of gdp government spending by 2016. get the size of government back to where it has been. what president obama has done is he has brought the size of government to as high as it hasn t been since world war ii. we want to reduce the size of government to have more economic freedom. i get that. what about balancbalance? i don t know exactly when it balances because i don t want to get wonky on you but we haven t run the numbers on that specific plan. arianna? i feel bad for him right now. he s like stuck in a bad position. well, he s disavowing his own budget saying now he s joined the romney ticket, so whatever he said, is null and void.
he was disgracing america and now obama and biden are told they re disgracing the nature and office of the president and in the meantime there s still over 20 million americans unemployed and under employed and 11 million whose homes are under water and that s the real outrage. mark halperin, the obama campaign last night, you said was outraged, especially by the use of the word hate, right? they are. they re both sides are moved from full outrage, rudy giuliani said joe biden was stupid, sarah palin saying he s disgusting and should be off the ticket. we re not having a serious skin discussion. i think the president should call mitt romney and figure out a discussion of detonight. i don t think that s going to happen. let me see, zero. i didn t say he would, i said he should. only because, i don t think he s watching the show. if he was watching the show he would hear that
