Bain capital is. the only reason i know about it is my brother has an mba, i don t care about that. i agree with the 54%. gregg: the true record as a chief executive of a state for mitt romney, 47th out of 50 states in job creation, which some would say is a pretty bad record. you know, he was an elected official and some people have good records, some people don t. if you look at the bain capital record mitt romney did create jobs. gregg: we ve looked at that and now i m asking you about his experience as a governor in which he didn t do a terribly great job compared to other states, at least in terms of creating jobs. now isn t that the record that a lot of voters should and will look at? what voters care about is solutions and results, and not the blame game. if you look at mitt romney s experience as a deman commander-in-chief of a state if you look at his experience in ....

All those verdicts of reporter: yeah. very interesting to see the reasoning behind that. gregg: green is the color of money.

[laughter] well, we have this fox news weather alert for you now. hurricane season officially begins next weekend, and today we re getting our very first predictions. chief meteorologist rick reichmuth is with us from the fox weather center. it looks stormy behind you, rick. [laughter] reporter: yeah, i tell you, so he s the averages. 12 is the number of average named storms, six hurricanes on average, three major hurricanes. noaa putting out their advisory today, and take a look at this, they re not going with any big, bold predictions, everything kind of splitting the number bees. i think in general we re expecting probably a sli ....
