Speaking -- -- -- during his speech in New Hampshire yesterday group of Occupy Wall Street protesters interrupt him with a run.

Live free or die.

Always occupied.

Live free or die.

Always occupied.

And a -- we when Mitt Romney as I -- give me the money.

Well my name is me and I'm here to say that comb my hair in a pretty neat way apart.

Stand -- to the right.

-- well and he'll be here all week that's funny.

But I don't stay up late to watch that stuff you see on he's on it eleven 1235.

-- my.

But people don't have to step which is we -- -- stuff right here in our show.

Listen on a regular broadcast show we had -- -- -- one from the University of Virginia and he still down there Larry.

What do you make of what happened last night in New Hampshire.

You know Steve that that really was a very impressive broad based win by Romney.

He came very close to hitting the 40% mark.

What was most important I think for him is the the potential.

Trouble dissipated for one thing Jon Huntsman who do finished third rather than second.

Really faded he was supposedly the hot candidate who was going to have to challenge right at the end there were some people speculating privately that he might catch -- -- -- -- and of course he finished with 17%.

Then you -- does Santorum who came ended New Hampshire with a head of steam from Iowa a tie with Romney in Iowa.

And he gets 9% of the vote along with Newt Gingrich so things just couldn't have worked out better for Romney.

But what do you make a South Carolina because they you know better than we do that they're such different states between New Hampshire the kind of over there.

And the kind of voter in South Carolina -- do you suspect that we're gonna see a different winner in South Carolina keep this thing moving forward.

Well we could it -- the long run is heavily pointing toward Romney think about this.

He is right now banking tens of thousands of votes in fla.

The next contest January 31 using their absentee ballot program no other campaign even has a program but to do that.

So so this system is very heavily weighted to.

Two -- bit lucky raise an important point.

Go back as long as you want 76 with -- with.

With Reagan in 88 with George H.

W.

Bush.

Dole in 965.

-- -- bush in in 2000 McCain in 2008 what links them all together.

They got nominated but they had at least one major bump in the road they lost something they were expected to win.

If it's gonna happen to Romney it will happen in South Carolina.

Could it possibly have to do -- Newt Gingrich he's gonna come out the next ten days with this.

27 -- -- anti Bain Capital movie.

I don't know if they're gonna run on TV -- and there are her how to gonna distributed.

But it is not a positive thing for mr.

Romney the know it it isn't.

Now you know I don't know whether that will help Newt Gingrich is going to hurt Mitt Romney somebody else may benefit -- -- Santorum.

If the evangelicals.

Organize around Santorum in some of the leaders down there had been hinting.

That they they would pick Santorum rather than period or Gingrich.

That's that kind of thing happens in politics somebody attacks a candidate it hurts the candidate being attacked but it also hurts the candidate who's attacking.

And somebody else ends up winning so -- it's complicated with this many candidates.

I'll say this though what -- -- the Obama White House has got to be pleased because between Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry.

On videotape will tell they're getting some great TV ads and in the fall.

I know -- yep yep yep.

We had both will will -- had Rick Perry and Ron Paul and Mitt Romney on the show as well as you and -- -- -- satellite so we're gonna say by -- Larry 70 but we know we'll see against him.

Thanks so much saying thanks a lot.

All right that's gonna wrap up our after the show show because we're after the show anyway so we'll see backed him.
