Repented for tonight. Well, its time for mitt romney to answer the sarah palin question. Are you for the bush doctrine . Its about international intervention. That has been the format for the republican party. Go in there, wipe it out, do what you got to do. President obama was handed a military that was debleeted with resources. Surgical strikes and its worked to this point about keeping us safe. The democrats have had a big fight about what the lessons were of the iraq war. The republicans have not had that.

In the world, keep faith with our troops and go after those who would do us harm, but after a decade of war, i think we all recognize weve got to do some nation building here at home, rebuilding our roads, our bridges and especially caring for our veterans who sacrificed so much for our freedom.

What we need to do with respect to it will middle east is strong, steady leadership, not wrong and reckless leadership that is all over the map. And unfortunately, thats the kind of opinions that you offered throughout this campaign. And it is not a recipe for american strength i dont see our influence growing around the world. I see our influence receding in part because of the failure of our failure to deal with economic challenges at home, our withdrawal from our commitment to our military and the way i think it ought to be. In part because the the turmoil with israel. All right. Good morning. Here we go. Its tuesday, october 23rd. Were live once again from racks downtown in boca raton, florida.
