A question.

For me why and why should horses -- I -- -- -- -- Sunday when you -- -- And he didn't answer his question about how we're going to you know what are your plans.
We don't know that.
That when you get an an -- conversation -- can take a little while let me give you some specific answers right now.
Soon after that rally and Obama campaign spokesperson emailed reporters writing this.
Congressman Ryan can't attend his own campaign rallies without being called out for failing to provide specifics.
About what Mitt Romney would do if elected.
And Linda Morrison joins us nice to see nice start you -- up.
When -- -- you Greta thanks for having me and I'm curious did you know and did you give specific answer from constant all right.
I -- I have to do if you went -- -- and then listen he told me specifically had five points that he made.
And he really elaborated I'm surprisingly he just stands they play number -- number two it took him about eight minutes to answer me and I was really plays with his answer because I thought to myself if there's any spin.
I am going to stop him and say just answer the question and he didn't and everybody afterwards was I needed just tell by the reaction of the crowd everybody liked his dancers and afterwards I had about four people come out to -- is that what a great question.
OK then there came a point when a member the Obama campaign sent the email out to everybody how did you hear about that.
I -- came to work I had been out of the office for a little bit.
And my boss has come and and he met me outside kinda laughing.
And he says in the -- times leaks said so he called out Ryan and I was really surprised -- Michael what do you talking about he says what's here in the paper that.
The question you asked you know what you called out Ryan and so out there are the parking lot we had a meeting that there is like four of us standing around -- -- The more thought about it the angrier I got because I knew what I had asked to and there was no way I was calling him out all I did was ask a question that.
So many people wanted to hear and we got a great answer.
The have you heard from the pres Obama's campaign saying so are we did that so are we took your words out of context or didn't tell the complete story and we're going to send an email out corrected it to the same number of people that we sent the email the first -- -- ought to.
I've got heard one word from the Obama campaign know.
Why -- -- think the Obama campaign did that do you think just sort of that they were careless and they were just in -- there have rushed to get it out -- do you think they're deliberately trying to make constant all right look back.
-- -- agree with that second statement that they were trying to make him look bad.
This was my first -- and never attended a rally and you know I asked a question and I think they thought that.
They were going to you know maybe it -- small town small community nobody would pick up on his.
Doing this then I really that they thought that they could pull one over on the American people.
But I was paying attention.
And I wasn't gonna let him get away with that I'm really tired of all this and and I decided to call my decided to call the Obama campaign -- And did you have one last question because I'm from the stimulus doesn't -- -- -- it packer of jacket.
-- -- My dad was from Wisconsin.
And my mom was from Chicago.
So I have always Saddam had you know split parents and I and I had been remade backpack -- jacket.
And I like if I'm going to a rally I thought maybe.
He would give me a thumbs up which he did -- had no idea he was -- even have any found you know we're going to be -- ask any questions solid.
-- -- hey maybe he'll wave at me like this that was my first rally was pretty excited -- And that he didn't Lori asks the question so what a great experience I thought.
