But its not outrageous. Do you think you can do basically what you did last time, sort of plodding along . Are the rules going to be fundamentally different this time and its going to be all about money and all about being provocative to get the Media Attention . Can you be plotting and get to the finish line . Senator santorum i hope so. Thats we havent really changed how who i am as candidate and what i believe in. And i dont think iowa has changed.
