in ohio. and this is why he really needs to win ohio. there is because of the delegates he needs something to knock romney off the gain z now if he does come in second he s got to go in to alabama, mississippi and illinois. and sort of run on the scene here. it s about become an old story. we re seeing the flaws and weaknesses in terms of the reach to the party that we ve seen. romney can t capture the most conservative base of the party. and santorum can t reach out and in terms of a national campaign. what would you tell romney to do? there is a way to break through gee yog graphy. tonight he can only win in tennessee and oklahoma so he s got to make it in north dakota and has got to make a bid for
those are the counties, over all, i just want to point this out here there is romney winning in this state. traditionally ohio is concerned down here in the southwest, and generally broad speaking here. and tends to be more democratic and here in the northeast. romney and there is franklin county romney winning there, again. and we pointed out romney s strategy rivals these numbers where there are big cities. and you did that. and dayton ohio as well, as a matter of fact in montgomery county leading romney to 12,000 votes and there is 96%. and coming back to ohio.
when it settles down, that person begins to take on a winner. it s important. people like winners and are drawn to winners, whoever wins will have that aura. there is effect of the convention and party rallying and both sides. and look what romney has done since the beginning of the campaign. he had a tented program to deal with spending. he now has a stronger program to deal with spending. there is a tax program going to revise that. so you have, there is a very robust foreign policy case he makes. you begin to think of issues dividing him from republicans. there are not very misdemeano misdemeanor many. and my guess is that people will make a choice whether they believe this man will change his mind and not try to repeal it? and carl cameron reporting
you know, newt gingrich likes to complain romney has been campaigning for six years or whatever. well, it s hard work that. is one of the things that gets you ahead in america. if you think about last summer, newt gingrich having a blow up with his staff kpem p were leaving he was taking a contribution and so on, romney wasn t doing that stuff he was working hard on his national organization, raising money he s used to his advantage against rick santorum, 2006 loss, i think kept him frk able to raise the kind of money woe have needed. so the in the end it came down to a contest between two what i call hop stoch korgs. and today, president press conference someone asked if he had anything to say to mitt romney. he said good luck tonight. the democrats have bought ads trying to defeat mitt romney. there was a million dollar ad
they re rushing and couldn t get to the polls and there is what you maying seeing now the question of whether or not there is enthusiasm that is dampened. i think the front bathes romney wins michigan. he s going to line up. and there is after noont i wonder if it won t be this guy is not as strong as he should be. this is the pitch newt gingrich makes on the stump. rick santorum making in that conservatives are motivated to get to polls and they re saying they came out for rick santorum and in north carolina numbers were up. and there is numbers up trying to say here so mitt romney can t generate enthusiasm.
