bill: you wonder if more people would like him if he heard more fire like that. i think you re right about intensity and enthusiasm he brings to this race. on a personal level and political level. how much longer is this going to play out? well i don t know. that s for the voters decide. i believe in bottom-up process i think this process is tough as it is and sometimes painful to watch is probably at the end of the day . bill: you used to run the party, ed. is it helping or hurting? what is your sense now as we come on april? i would like to get quickly to the point where we have a standard-bearer carrying the critical indictment of president obama and his policies and direction he is moving the country versus market-oriented principles and solution i think would create growth. that is where governor romney is and what he is talking about. i would like to get to a one-on-one as soon as we can. i don t have a magic wand. the fact the voters have to come to that conclusion. i think
containment on the fire. we do see the direction that the fire is moving in, and it has been going in sort of a northeast direction. so we have prepared some neighborhoods for additional evacuations if that should come today. martha: what sparked it, do you think, in terms of the investigation at this point, and, you know, you say it s zero percent contained at this point. what is the outlook there? well, we are in a heavily wooded, kind of mountainous terrain, dealing with very dry conditions, warmer temperatures and wind, which is always a recipe for problems. so we don t have containment yet, but we have a lot of resources that will be arriving today to include some air support, and hopefully we ll be able to get a heavy helo tanker and a heavy tanker up which should impact the fire some as well. martha: you said the conditions were too tough to do that
