-- are we going to face inevitably that in almost every week after -- each of these campaigns.
Somebody will be up of the up for -- to the summit will be down and just keep changing.
Yeah -- that will go on for a while though it's still does seem to be a parry Romney race you know I mean that dynamic hasn't changed terribly.
Especially because He had a good performance now in the most recent debate and aren't a lot of debates for a while so that kind of keeps him up at the same level with -- -- -- Herman -- is still leading amongst likely Republican primary voters value and I know that as a very conservative how do you account.
For him still being at the top He wants a national sales tax and shockingly.
Stated yesterday.
He's in favor of abortion yet why I think it accounts for people not really knowing what He stands form probably putting a lot of it.
Hopes and dreams on -- it shows that people aren't happy with their choices right now.
An -- -- -- that at -- think it's a game changer I -- his position on abortion -- just an applicant changer no matter how much you try to walk it back He essentially.
Announcing yes the same position on abortion is John Kerry are.
Last night on the show senator Orrin hatch was on the talking about some issues with Tim Geithner at the end of the interview I said that senator.
Rush Limbaugh is a conservative.
You're conservative you endorsed Mitt Romney Rush Limbaugh assessment Romney's not a conservative who's right.
Eight but how would you ask a question.
Woman prime is not a conservative I at think that's obvious all that to the extent that we do even know what He stands for and I'm not saying that to be cute you know I I -- there's a question He seems to sort of move what the winds and if I had to guess -- -- he's probably more likely more liberal than he's selling himself to be.
Do do you think that Republicans will adapt to the anybody but Obama -- -- rather than returning to their Barry Goldwater Ronald Reagan.
-- -- They definitely I think at this point that's the mentality.
I I was out in Iowa for the straw poll and that's what I heard over and over from people.
They would be say I'll even vote for -- You know I even ask for a packages are very very concern OK you know -- -- can.
Republicans this week we'll talk about independents and moderate Democrats and another question can Republicans have a fire in their belly it just -- -- this is Steve Forbes.
About Romney the way they did about Reagan.
Not why would you even think what I don't.
So how can the Republican Party expect a candidate to prevail against a very charismatic president when their own candidate can generate up firing in the bellies of his own back.
I'll because the democratic candidate is generating a Bally and the fire of the base me Obama they want Obama how and I acted look they're not -- has fired up as they would be if they had a Reagan type candidate but they really don't like Obama and I do you think that they're gonna turn now.
Okay switching gears a little bit what does the president's attitude about anger towards Wall Street.
And at one point the president or his acolytes I don't know that He could adversely.
-- -- -- trying to wrap their arms around around the crowd the -- -- crowd that's downtown periodically all throughout.
Manhattan and another point the president said even though I once demonize them.
I don't want you to what is the relationship of this White House to Wall Street in this coming presidential campaign gears and.
They have a they have not a great relationship with Wall Street despite being very pro Wall Street that's what sort of ironic about it I mean they have.
And Washington is it has -- complaining and saying saying that Obama's been demonizing on Google cares -- behind the scenes He does everything that they want and that's the reality.
Why is He trying his arms around that occupy Wall Street because He knows -- that's -- sentiment in the country but at the same time He knows who the donors are and out of the Wall Street -- Our Charlie -- Gasparino reports that Wall Street money it's about 13 to the president of what it was in how we actually does this surprise you.
Now that they've been fleeing the president I mean it was a had shifted to where that Democrats were.
Raising more money from Wall Street and now they just have fled and are going to kissed and it was a pleasure thank at giants.
Every day --
