Number of Romney.

-- has some serious issues and Iowa right now you know he's -- a percentage points and then right behind them.

Only seven percentage -- behind him.

Is Michelle Bachmann you know that's a number that speaks for itself if you've ever read anything -- Michelle Bachmann has ever said.

You're clearly understand that she's not fit to serve in the office of the United States president and Mitt Romney is only seven percentage points ahead -- -- Iowa.

You know He may win the Republican nomination at the end of the day.

But it is very clear that the case that He will never be president of the United States you know as governor He was 47 in job creation in the United States and as a businessman.

He made all his money closing down factories and venture capitalists.

Style financial gambling.

You know Americans who are sick of Wall Street speculators and tired of politicians who don't care about jobs will never vote for Mitt Romney.

All right David -- responsiveness.

I think -- -- -- -- I'm very much surprised by that whole its either out liar which means which -- fancy talk for wrong yeah.

All -- what we're seeing is is a sort of drip drip drip on on the Bachmann campaign.

Where we've had one thing after another and and may be there too many distractions.

And where Bachmann was a few weeks ago the anti Romney all of a sudden.

Romney becomes the anti Bachmann in Iowa.

Now all of that means what do you how do you sort this out if you're Tim Pawlenty.

Originally.

If if Bachmann was searching originally his plan was to win Iowa that was a fallback thing where.

If if Bachmann wins He has to finish second He has to finish second ahead of Romney but -- if Romney is suddenly in the next.

He's in third place He goes from first to thirds which in baseball on a single is okay -- -- so good if you're Tim Pawlenty.

Well Tim I mean can we agree on this client -- that does not look good for Tim Pawlenty right.

Now Tim -- is not gonna have a good chance you know I I think there was the one that -- and a sex offender up in his home state as governor.

So you know he's gonna have to live through that their entire presidential election I frankly don't think it's gonna make it to the nomination maybe you -- be a VP candidate but that's about the most boring ticket you can ever have.

On -- -- opinion is no Republicans feel they nominated I mean that's fine too low overhead and other Bob Dole -- -- and -- just -- -- the.

Who is significant lack of enthusiasm for the leading candidate on the Republican side right now we -- telling you right now we did think going to be the nominee so far there's no one might.

I think -- be great to have a Sarah Palin Paul Ryan -- that I mean.

I think that would excite the Tea Party they would definitely be excited about that they're definitely not excited about Mitt Romney you know He essentially test marketed obamacare -- Massachusetts.

And that's why none of them -- ever gonna vote for a man like senator for a lot of.

I think Obama ideas that I didn't give me your honest opinion Ryan reached deep down and tell me who you thing.

Legitimately.

Is the most credible threat against Barack Obama head to head in the election.

It's definitely Huntsman.

He's got a track record He can run on you can get moderate and independent voters.

And if you teamed up with somebody like Mitch Daniels.

You know that be a strong case to make four.

You know.

You're getting a Republican president that -- to give us a run for money maybe even teaming up with somebody like Mike Huckabee to pick up social conservatives but the people in the race right now.

Just ain't gonna win.

Mariane just seeing I think you're trying to make me -- by saying Mike Huckabee we love that governor -- a great guy.

All right I'm saying look I don't think he's saying that He likes it here is a very pleased to be.

-- what do you think.

How about you didn't you don't want Rick Perry -- an idea not -- in the democratic late -- you -- -- -- Our home no I'm.

I can't -- -- talk about secession of open that you can't you can't put somebody on a national party ticket who talked about this -- from the United States of America or maybe.

Sorry about that now island.

Come on now is that -- okay go ahead.

I think I think that just about any Republican can be Obama we saw a poll a week ago which had Ron Paul.

Only four points below Obama that it spells trouble.

I know that's a little bit rare that an absolutely and I can we get I think we could start with as the base and move upward.

Okay I'm reading giving us -- as elegantly as you hair and funny after the hour zone how bad it gives you a chance.

Well I I appreciate your endorsement of of Ron Paul presidential.

Campaign.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- You know if you want to I'll put all of I'd be happy you on behalf immediately endorse him in 2012.

But.

Frankly no matter who the Republicans put up for president this year it's not looking like you have very good chance that went -- -- -- -- -- get reelected and when He twelve.
