Dick Morris also author of the New York Times best seller revolt.
A patriot's -- how to defeat Obama and -- his socialist programs pick.
Well let me ask you the question alliance with KT McFarland is this a foreign policy success.
For the -- I'm a little bit.
Reminded of the what they said in Norway after the -- -- -- flies have conquered the fly Paper.
Because.
This is not just a question of a little cadre that got thrown out of office and souped up -- This is basically a fight between the eastern and western halves of the country.
And the eastern half which is where the rebels come from went to the western half which was Qaddafi dominated.
And the rebels.
Put up a heck of a fight.
They couldn't be vanquished -- six months have made NATO airstrikes 5000 US sorties.
-- before they lost.
So those guys have -- guns they've gone back home.
And I think you're gonna be end up in an Iraqi situation where there will be she noticed one of the criteria that the UN has where NATO has for withdrawing.
Is no attacks on the civilian population.
Lots of luck.
Well as we look at what is happening -- this president is desperately.
You need.
Of success.
Foreign policy are gathering glad you brought jacket with them up to Martha's Vineyard -- -- at a press got its.
Well.
We -- having.
Successfully deployed his.
His word -- what can He do now to raise these horrible citing poll numbers.
Well him I don't know what He can do they're gonna said further -- His job approval is 39%.
I have a video on my web -- at that predicts it'll go further down.
Because when Gallup asked people what do you think of his job with the economy 26 approved used to be 38 right.
It's creating jobs 29%.
Approve the federal deficit 23%.
For now what that there issues are there other than those that was -- -- and if those are in the twenties in his job approval was the high thirties.
He may look back on August of 2011.
Is the Halcyon days when -- almost 40% approved.
As we look at these numbers there are also dispiriting for the loan from the White House -- another respect and that is according to -- Gallup again.
Mitt Romney beats it by two points in the most recent Paul.
Rick Perry ties him Michelle Bachmann.
And Ron Paul -- within four points up.
That's I mean -- -- more committed even more troubling perhaps -- -- approval rating more important he's under fifty.
Both against store for -- The only candidate eighties over fifty against I think is Sarah Palin but that -- still that may not be stoked their.
What's -- a change rather quickly if she gets back to others and when you're under fifty.
It's a little bit like saying -- you can be married to the same lady next year and you say I'm on this I think.
Well I think -- stayed married almost thirty years we've never -- got everybody in -- distracted.
But seriously the idea that Governor Palin is chocolate making a lot of -- about coming -- That there's a lot of noise being created.
Four Chris Christie the governor of New Jersey.
A lot of noise that had been created to we're told for -- to the congressman himself Paul Ryan that He would not be entering.
What are what are we to expect in the way of new entrants into the GOP field well it's -- -- to look like Palin will run.
She has a big rally scheduled -- Iowa on September 3 right.
And and I just kind of video will be on my site tomorrow analyzing that -- -- a that's a Dick Morris dot com I'm so it covers -- you know the the point is that.
I think that Sarah Palin would not only lose the Republican primary.
I think she'd lose the Republican -- primary to Bachman wrote.
Well I think in every respect Bachmann has that over her more experience more understanding of international affairs.
More presence in congress -- advanced degrees.
I think and I think that had -- answered before Michelle got known Sarah -- dominated Republican women.
But now that Michelle has a three month head start I think Cheryl -- killing himself to get into this revenues.
Well we're going to be talking here shortly on the broadcast for the ahead of the I would Tea Party which will be hosting that event that this is assessment of or what is happening.
Some of the political massive nations that are going on.
Is there a driving force behind these new entrance is there's some.
Strategic purpose behind at all yet there's definitely driving force Obama's collapsing poll numbers off the worst they get the more people suddenly get.
The urge to run for President -- they're Morrissey at Bruno's a few things about those through -- have urges to -- -- -- -- thanks so much that I.
