Well certainly related to a former CEO to run his campaign well like alien being business -- -- doing big things with.
A very tiny steps.
Here you have but does one very nice guy with you today.
We -- when we got a presidential candidates yes they have and sorry cannot -- I -- -- but we have a slot to when they come in.
I mean that people have people so clearly I'm not -- I want -- -- That that this isn't but isn't this is weird.
Do you need an added to get up to steam to get an organization don't because if you hit greased lightning which you just -- yeah you might not have the the back up to support in the structure to go much as you know Governor Huckabee experienced after winning -- eating right have what McCain.
Here's what some people don't know because they are not on the inside of the campaign in the last thirty days we have doubled the sounds about staff we have 212 we up to.
Nine.
Yeah.
No we have actually double the -- we were at about thirty.
Before this campaign sought his take -- we are now close to seven of people and that includes.
Full time people that we've always hey listen to that we -- -- always say hello go to the queen Nancy thank you know I do sometimes there is some data that don't listened -- mom my leadership style and they know this.
They can suggest and recommend but I'm ultimate woman make the decision go I have to be who want to take a hit if it doesn't come off right -- this sort of thing.
So no they may have I loved my people know that they could suggest is saying they're not afraid to tell me what I need to hear what I need to hear it and I listen at for the most part.
They big dividend information not respond to it but you know the fact that -- -- we have we've already increased the staffing.
Selectively.
Like you would increase the south of you organization.
If you bill in a business remember we've been running lean and mean I got criticized for that but he doesn't have the staff he did have experts.
People say well.
Who -- this -- new policy on various issues I have the final say so but I got a group of experts that I have a need to do this and -- talking to a lot of people.
Well who -- to speeches.
-- -- I don't need in about a right now speeches and so it save a lot of money on teleprompters money it's about the recent little bit yes on.
If you do not get the nomination could you support Mitt Romney if you did.
It would be pinned.
Upon.
But discussion that he and I would pale.
-- get to making that decision but it's not a given the amount of a drink of supporting Barack Obama over and absolutely not that it would depend upon the discussion that we would have to hand.
If I did not gonna happen to believe that.
You know that of the big big big if right now you know men and women with the godfathers if you can't during golf balls around do you want a French has from another change you know I went they have focused on turning -- frank we would have to have a discussion.
Because several things that I would have to be issued.
As somebody is running mate if that would happen and I don't care who gets the nomination if I had -- imagine running of the data did not and would want to they've got -- nomination that -- I did say that that's it I will be looking to someone number one.
Who shares my.
Ideals for their close enough on the major issues in terms of how we're supposed to approach right now he doesn't right now he doesn't OK so -- -- -- got to punish.
I don't think -- close enough in terms of -- -- you know out of the need right he's for Ron Paul he's he's Ron Paul you -- done well Rick Perry which we don't think.
Rick -- his flat tax I call it flat tax light.
With too far apart on just that piece here it is a New Jersey region 999 dog didn't -- because he took all of these brackets and collapse them down is a threat is Matt I don't.
Not giving you would support any and all the other and -- important lot of -- when he kind of -- admitted that he might not and that he might go the third party -- you know when you talk about looking at all the the other candidates.
I believe that Ron Paul and I'll probably further away on ideas then in about -- states so you would never entertain the third party that would -- -- tonight.
Now -- I think got to be a mistake I think if you do that you're gonna hand.
An advantage to the Democrats and Barack Obama in the last thing we need to do is to hand -- and have managed to Barack Obama so.
How would be you know it depends upon whom but the question is -- and what role they wanna -- the -- You say he would debate.
You know the whole running mate thing with Mitt Romney and we are.
