we heard from robert gibbs, the president is going to come out more energetic. or democrats hope so. there is a fine law. you have want it to porridge. not too hot, not too cold. just right. it s different. he doesn t want to seem desperate or overcompensating for what happened last time. face it, he has to do better than the last time. that is not hard. so already going to be built in anything he does is better than the last debateit s a totat format. there was quote today that an exaide said i don t know why he is the politician. he doesn t even really like people. she is not a person who is particularly critical of him hecht will have to try to relate to people. the good news for him is romney is not that great at relating to people either. bret: steve, what about governor romney? look, i think he did a good job last time. he found that happy medium
of the obama campaign the president took responsibility as well. he says he takes responsibility for all this kind of matter across the world. well, the latest polls show the president is still paying the price for the first debate. his aides say the challenge tonight will be to make adjustments without overcompensating. a live look here at the stage at hofstra university. it s a little different. this one is a town hall-style debate with voters here on long island asking the question. 80 uncommitted voters from here in nassau county to be in the audience. the organizers say voters submitted their questions in advantages and the moderator will choose the questions. organizers say governor romney won the coin toss, chose to go first, and that leads us to the continuation of team fox coverage and campaign carl cameron live here at hofstra. what s the thinking if the

what they trying to say. with santorum, i think he is overcompensating for his less than to be desired record in the senate. $5 trillion over five years is more than any other g.o.p. candidate right now but if you looked at his record when he was in the senate he was a prolific earmarker and supported adding trillions to medicare, so, it is just not believable. he is good on tax policy by lowering tax rates to the reagan levels of 10 and 28 percent for victims but when it comes to spending, it is tough to believe. so i give him a c. neil: and ron paul? guest: ron paul is spectacular with the traffic record. he wants to cut $1 federal right off the bat and cut more going further. he wants to get rid of five ages, and get rid of corporate sucks difficulties, and get rid of a lot of foreign aid. it is very impressive what he has gotten. i think he means it.
