and say these are the fundamental issues in the election. bill: all right. have you got 90 minutes in this election. the first half of it is going to be on the economy. then there is something about governance, you negotiation philosophy this wishy washing stuff is not going to amount to anything. the economy is going to be everything. how much does mitt romney promote himself and how much does he attack his proponent. put a percentage on it. romney has a lot of air time tonight and make his points. how much does he point out what i m going to do and how much does he attack what the president has done. on a percentage 2 to 1 what i m going to do. because he already has a large enough reservoir of voters to ho have rejected barack obama. romney vote plus the undecided vote in every poll is well over 50. what he has got to do is convince those undecides that he is the guy to do it. bill: 2 to 1 positive rather than negative. the third thing he has to
cammeron. ready for my prediction? romney will wish the couple happy anniversary. one of the first thing he does. no question about it. couple family things about rom mr. romney you should note too. one thing he does is immediately makes contact with his wife in the audience when he takes the podium. next thing he does he writes the letters dad dad for his father on the note pad. what you say can matter. there is awful lot of talk how romney has never forgotten that his father s presidential campaign was derailed by misstatement being brain washed by the vietnam war. that left a mark. he is super cautious about what he says. all the rehearsing and all of that sever o since of calm all his aides have described. we that ride the plane have seen. not about the consultants and super pacs and background noise that comes with the presidential campaign. it s now on his soldiers. he either has to perform orer he won t. bill: both of these guys this is like an olympic, you know, competiti
