you are making a good point. but you know what i learned about polls at this point of a primary or caucus process? they are cotton candy. and they will disappear in the mouth very quickly. so become liquid sugar. the polls that matter in a caucus are the ones that occur among the activists during caucus. the people hat show up on that freezing cold day, get out there and zot jobs, get their neighbors out. megyn: i don t think people understand how important it is to have an organization set up on the ground in iowa. what exactly should he be doing that he s not doing? he has not identified the people for the most part who will get to those caucuses, bring their friends and neighbors and family members who are totally committed to him, who are willing to give up that day in a cold season in iowa,
the part of this administration. he has the lowest job approval rating of his presidency, he has the highest disapproval, and he is becoming increasingly populist and irresponsible in his demagoguery. megyn: well, it s an interesting thought about whether any political party is to blame for these firefighters position or whether the states who overspent are the ones to blame. may i put this really succinctly? we have watched six and a half million people in the private sector lose their jobs over the course of the past three years. 290,000 in the public sector. what s going on? megyn: interesting statistic. lou, thank you. thank you. megyn: the administration is now walking away from a big part of the health care overhaul because it admits the country cannot afford this part of the plan. in three minutes, what could this mean for the rest of that law? and a florida man fired over a pin just like this one. why wearing the stars and stripes end up costing him his job.
the flavor of the month or two months. but the truth is there have been five frontrunners, megyn, just since late spring in the republican party. so there is nothing unusual about what s happening. megyn: is there any chance in your mind that he don t really want to be president? there is speculation that what he wants is to be a king maker like sarah palin. i saw an article that he might want a fox news program like mike huckabee. i think he would like to be president. there is a line from the great old movie, it s good to be the king. he would like to be president. but he s the kind of person who is very self-assured. he will be happy doing a wide variety of things including become secretary of commerce or vice president. i ll bet his favorability rating is still high at end of this
daughter is. if i knew, she would be with me. megyn: how did they respond? called me a bad mother. and said [ male announcer ] drinking a smoothie with no vegetable nutrition? [ gong ] strawberry banana! [ male announcer ] for a smoothie with real fruit plus veggie nutrition new v8 v-fusion smoothie. could ve had a v8.
would prefer mr. cain over the president. so is this a sign of cain s lasting power or just more evidence of the president s perils in the polls? we will ask master political larry sabato when he joins us live next hour. meantime, president obama is hitting the road kicking off a three-day bus tour through north carolina and virginia. the bus is pretty hard to miss. and over the next few days, we are going to take this bus through north carolina and virginia, and i m going to get a chance to hear from folks about how they re doing. megyn: the president says he is hoping the tour will help garner support for his $447 billion jobs plan recently shelfed by congress, but critics say the president is just working overtime to woo back voters in states like north carolina and virginia which he comfortably won during the 08 election but which are considered must-wins this time around and which some are saying he could very well lose if he does not shore up his
