well the stolen truck carrying president obama's teleprompters has been recovered. but one of them is still gone. yeah, meanwhile joe biden's teleprompter has taken its own life. shot itself. >> time now for your political ticker with tim farley. host of "morning briefing" on sirius xm. live from washington, good to see you. >> good to see you, ali. >> president obama heads out west a week after his east coast tour. and he's hitting the road, with a brand-new mantra, probably one we're going to hear for the next year or so. your thoughts? >> well, yeah. it's got tweeted out by the white house yesterday. we can't wait is going to replace, pass this bill. perhaps because "pass this bill" didn't work. and a couple of pieces of the bill went up in the senate and down to defeat. the house is here, but no action on the president. so why not? this visit, ali, i think when you look at it closely, is all about money and the latino vote, the hispanic vote, that the president carried so successfully in 2008. and they don't want to go back to 2004, when george w. bush got about 44% of the hispanic vote. clearly the president is going to be talking money. there's, we look at today, there may be something on the mortgage markets here. as you well know, nevada is just in the toilet when it comes to mortgages, that's one of the things i think he's going to be focusing on today, too. >> i think for the average viewer who doesn't follow politics as closely as others do, it's unclear whether these trips are campaigning or whether they are as the president said, in his speech to the joint session of congress, this is him taking his message to every corner of the country. i guess the bottom line is, are these kind of trips necessary for policy? or do they just give the gop more ammunition to say that the president is out on the hustings when he should be governing. >> the president is the president wherever he is. i guess it depends how well it's presented. the big, big fundraisers are going to be behind closed doors. he's going to be having dinner and a voter's house and will smith and jada pinkett smith's house, no cameras allowed. people will see the president talking about substantive things and pushing republicans and it does sort of fit in with policy. this is what every president has to deal with when he's running for re-election. >> i know that these primary and caucus calendars are remarkably important. nevada has pushed back of the date of its caucus. it does seem to be one of those things for the audience that thinks that they want to hear about policy and decide who to vote for for the president, this seems to be whole lot of insider process. but where do we stand now on these primaries and caucuses? >> and to your point about the number of people, 20 million people have launched the debates, about five and a half million, the cnn debate alone last week. there are some people engaged in this. and the people in iowa and new hampshire are very engaged. the 3rd of january and the 10th of january. in those states, we're going to see this campaign unfold rather quickly i think you'll see, probably mitt romney try to win in new hampshire. he's more or less favored to win there. and iowa may be a rick perry state or it may be a herman cain state. it sort of depends on how it shakes out. the thing is, once we get through january we'll see who has the money to continue. >> if after these four, tim, we don't have great performances by beginning grish, by ron paul, by michele bachmann. by rick santorum, are they out? >> i believe they are. if they can't be out by the end of january, they'll have a tough time making it through february, because there are no contests there. i think you're probably right. that will thin the herd. >> right. all right, tim, always great to see you thanks very much for joining us again as always. tim farley, the host of "morning briefing." remember all the debris from the tsunami that hit japan?
