everyone is going to be targeted on him. he answered social security. i asked him about immigration. he had already answered i felt the hpv vaccine issue enough. he said i was wrong, i m sorry. there s nothing else he could add to that. what did you think of these answers? there are differing opinions. rove and morris thinks he need to moderate on social security. this was the strongest that i ve heard him on those issues. look, i think back to ronald reagan when he first ran in 1976 and then 1980. by the time he ran again in 80 he had run once before so he had been through the drill. prior to that ronald reagan spent 20 years marinate going in conservatism. he wrote by long hand his own radio addresses. by the time he ran for president, both times, actually all three times, he understand he understood the logic behind conservatism. sean: are you saying you don t think romney does?

we were discussing the hpv vaccine issue. and you had made this point about the bachmann there s the aspects of it which is the sexual politics, and then the crony activism, and do you think this is going to have legs in the crony capitalist will have legs in the republican field? i think it will. when you look at governor perry s record you see the texas emerging technology fund for whatever reason seemed to channel large amounts of money
term ponzi scheme for social security. on the hpv vaccine issue, immigration some other issues. did you feel he answered those three questions in a way that is going to help him as he moves forward? a couple of things. i think debates are great. too lone the republican party is anointed or too long the republican party is anointed that is not healthy. sean: not going to happen this time. that s a good thing. i don t agree with rick on 100% of the issues. i think he s the best candidate when it comes to the economy. social security, he got a lot of attacks. the democrats are trying to use the word upon did scheme. the real is democrats know the entitlement programs are going broke. they know doing nothing is not a choice. they know every two years they try to scare the public, win elections [ talking over each other ] sean: it didn t work in new york and he tried to do this to turner it fell flat.
