-- nice to talk -- I -- I -- the pilgrimage continues this time representative Michelle Bachmann went to see you what you think.

Well I think she's a really lovely woman and then we had a great conversation she's very smart she's doing a really good job she's really working hard in fact I was saying you know take it easy relax have a good life of the fact is she's working very very hard -- she's a very good one -- When she what you expected or did you or did you were you pressed a little bit more O'Meara I really rightly saw.

I've actually notre and I.

The better before and she was up to drum tower about two months ago and you know I think she's -- there really working hard issues.

Involved with Iowa she's -- -- very strongly with New Hampshire.

And you know I'm impressed with -- and I'm impressed -- I must -- -- Ipads.

A lot of visit from a lot of people and I can tell you that governor Romney very impressive.

Rick Perry if he's he's a terrific guy with a great record and I -- -- have a hard time with the debates and he's the first to admit that but.

I mean really a terrific person Herman -- -- spoke to yesterday terrific person and it's you know the job he's done is amazing.

I mean if you think about it it's amazing so.

But I -- -- people.

But this is not a pinch miss congeniality that next act so yeah -- And here's what let me tell -- -- -- Suspicious up in terms of which way you're -- I'm -- treated the other day after the most recent debate you added that Robbie did very well in the debate and you keep -- -- -- you always seem to go back to governor Romney but.

Using -- -- curiously why did governor Romney's numbers -- it doesn't seem like He doesn't get a bounce when governor Christie gets out of the race and and it does really gets any bounces out of money these any of these events.

You're right I was surprised because -- -- He did really well in the debate -- -- -- Herman Cain did very well the debate to but He made it doesn't seem to.

Really be getting much of a bounce and I think a lot of people don't know I think a lot of people maybe don't understand them.

But He doesn't seem to do well in the Republican primary now if you look at his numbers overall.

He's doing quite well but he's got to get out of the primary.

And in the Republican primary means doing okay.

But He doesn't get to kind of bounce you would think when somebody gets data when somebody goes down you -- to get more numbers and higher numbers that he's getting.

-- -- finance questions it in the event He is the nominee.

The old President Obama and his campaign and we loaded for -- the making a lot of money they've got a lot of things to -- challenge -- not for instance a national health care which Republican Party.

Many Republican party of an adamant they wanna get rid of it but for better or for worse even some of his advisors in Massachusetts helped president Obama's administration.

Fashion the national and -- That maybe something maybe a hard sell out to a lot of Republican.

I really think it's -- be about the economy I think it's gonna be about jobs I really think Tibet issue is being overplayed at this point didn't you know I think governor Romney's explained it.

To look terribly well I really believe credit's going to be about jobs and it was going to be the best president and it's.

Honestly Obama if -- continues to do the job distilling -- of the economy continues to be as bad as it and it is very bad but continues to be as bad as it is I think he's gonna have a very very hard time beating certain to have the Republican candidates.

I'd say it's about jobs once thing that's our -- -- -- him in been following what's going out of the Obama administration if we if governor Romney is -- -- if if they're gonna run atom heart.

For his work he's been very successful middle on my does -- means a he's a job creator and I think they're gonna go back to see whether or not any of the companies He bunnies -- Bain Capital whether or not they added jobs or whether He dismantlement to make them more efficient.

I'm not so sure that this is gonna be a smooth sail if he's the nominee I'm jobs.

You know the biggest problem when you're very successful.

And you had a great career you've done a lot of things and as He -- some good some bad but mostly good.

And the fact is that you have a lot of things that people can shoot at because -- -- a productive person you've worked hard.

But He didn't good deals -- should I mean by as a company and maybe get rid of some people because He had to make the company better wanted to save the company or whatever so He did thanks.

-- Obama He never did anything if you look at.

The only thing He did -- buy a house.

He never did anything -- So there's nothing to criticized about how she could criticized.

Because if you look at the way you put that out that is a very very suspect deal and people should look at it.

The fact is the only deal He ever made in his life that He bought a house.

So you can't criticize him because He -- 37 different companies are deployed tens of thousands of people there's nothing to criticize -- it's very unfair and I've always said.

It's very hard -- very successful person to get elected because even your good deals -- can criticize.

I didn't act standards couple categories one is who you might think would be the best candidate of the best president -- the best -- of a particular party.

Let me ask you who do you think the Obama administration most.

Fears in a general who would you just to this not not not -- ultimately it's been a president but just -- Purely strategy given the biggest run first money.

Well I think toward the most disliked was Donald Trump because nobody had a black guy did because I don't trust and nobody had -- -- and I've heard that from somebody different people and so what you do what they most disliked is me and I'm honored by it because he's not doing the job and I wish you would do -- I would love it if they do the job I think his biggest supporter if you do the japs.

-- would limit it.

Number I don't I don't I don't.

-- aside because honestly.

It's too early for me to say at at -- appropriate time I'm gonna be saying but it's too early for me sick and I will save lists.

I spoke to yesterday was senator Lindsey Graham -- South Carolina and I love what he's doing with respect to China.

They're putting bills and because they're trying to -- The Chinese curse and there were honestly He should be given more support -- -- bill passed but he's got to be given support because.

It's the first time I'm seeing somebody go out and fight I call -- the Chinese curse because what I do this country is unbelievable.

What would -- president Donald Trump do about Iran in light of this terrorist plot that has been thwarted but apparently leads all way up to the high leadership in -- -- Well the problem we have with Iran as they no longer respect us as a country they know we're dying to get out of Iraq and that's fine and we should -- But as I said we should take the oil we should absolutely take the oil I mean we're spending a trillion and -- half dollars and us.

I think.

Iraq Barack has the second largest oil fields of the world that we should reimburse ourselves we should reimburse all of the families -- have lost children.

Fabulous fabulous men and women lost.

And what are they getting edited so it's just -- disgraced.

We thought and -- -- not Iraqi.

But I'm I'm saying Iraq and Iran is going to take over.

The oil fields of Iraq and Scarborough act and the reason they're going to do that is very simple they have absolutely no respect for the United States and that's why when they send to people and as they did yesterday as we found out.

It's really a lack as Rodney Dangerfield would say it's a really a lack of respect for our country.
