answer is yes, i m still staying at the ritz. this reminds me of the bp, you know, gaps where the head of bp seemed completely out of touch at how badly he had done. crying about his missed vacations and he has no privacy. and this seems to be the same. isn t there question about bltabili b accountability and remorse? guys are completely out of touch with the average person. and jon corzine had a disastrous time on the hill. he got served with legal papers yesterday and walked past. and he said this $1.2 billion in missing mf global money, first he didn t know what happened to it. but they said it was okay to transfer it from customer funds. and now his regulator is saying that s not true at all. so what is the real story for jon corzine in he is absolutely ta tanked. the ceo drives down in a zip car and stays at the holiday inn. it doesn t change anything. speaking of ceo s, we have to play a clip from herm an and
enforce the laws. but let s look at the trajectory of money and politics. in 1996, fec says that $478 million spept on the race. there is a prediction that $6 billion will be spent on the races in 2012. think is bipartisan. you have certainly the support for the super packs, the right came out early. and obama, the white house, the administration said this is wrong. this is wrong. but then, you know, inevitably, priorities is they have their own super packs. the money matters. ask tim pawlenty. he ran out of money. he ran out of money early. look at hesrman cain. he ran his entire company for months and months and months spending his own money. so it does matter. it s up to voters to decide if they it mattered too much and
congress in or out which we ll talk about after the break. there is no deal yet on the payroll tax. but are we close? that is next on now. tdd# 1-800-345-2550 let s talk about the personal attention tdd# 1-800-345-2550 you and your money deserve. tdd# 1-800-345-2550 at charles schwab, that means taking a close look at you tdd# 1-800-345-2550 as well as your portfolio. tdd# 1-800-345-2550 we ask the right questions, tdd# 1-800-345-2550 then we actually listen to the answers tdd# 1-800-345-2550 before giving you practical ideas you can act on. tdd# 1-800-345-2550 so talk to chuck online, on the phone, tdd# 1-800-345-2550 or come in and pull up a chair. woohoo! whoa. haircolor is a chore no more! you gotta come see what s new. c mon! tadaaa! welcome to haircolor heaven. aa-ah-ahhh! courtesy of new nice n easy colorblend foam. permanent, dimensional color, now in a delightful foam!
they willselves even matter at this point? and how much does money start to skew the message and sway the electorate? anybody? not at all. it doesn t. we have our answer. thank you, supreme court. it s really open season in a way that we never had before for any kind of money, corporate money, casino billionaires giving i mean it s a joke how corrupt this process is. on the other hand, there is no more presumption that a candidate has any innocence that, there can be a such thing as independent expenditure campaign where someone is spending money on your behalf without coordinating with you. he they may not be technically coordinating with you, but you are responsible for what s done in your name. this time i think more than any previous election. that s the sort of big ridiculous kun conundrum in this situation. they re not directly talking to the rick perry campaign. obviously, rick perry knows
the race seems to be relaxing to where it started which is romney is the front-runner and no really plausible challenge. you know, it s a long way to go. we in the press hate to have a static race. yes, we do. we have to decide who we re going to build up next. my argument is for huntsman. yes. the one candidate that hasn t had a shot yet. we need to decide that. literally. last night was john huntsman again and again. it is my turn to drive this clown carment let me in the driver s seat. let s talk about another factor in this race independent of rick perry and michelle bachmann and that is money. the advent of the super pack. we know that newt gingrich got a $20 million donation to his pack from casino owner adelson. and just the money that is being poured into this race doesn t even matter if candidates, i mean does what candidates raise
