-- the presidential election importance them consider at least I divided conservative base.
We're joined by Andrew bright board he is the publisher bright part dot com bright part TV.
Big government big -- I mean just everything is also the author of the book ever righteous indignation.
Excuse me while I save the world.
Such a modest title through -- -- great to have you with.
And publisher of average or I did we not mentioned part of everything -- -- -- have here and how you think about it every everything -- -- you're only gonna get big everything not -- It's good to have you here let's talk about what's going on right now.
Romney seems to be doing now what many thought was impossible few months ago first of all these broken the nonsense.
Shattered the 25%.
Ceiling that everybody of -- many of the -- bonds have gurus were talking about.
Secondly it appears that he's attracting his many conservatives as the is moderates and liberals and the Republican Party what do you make of it.
Well I think that just because the Tea Party have what tried Bennett a defender and and I would say a participant.
Doesn't mean that they that they.
The Tea Party doesn't have a the ability to be pragmatic and now is a time to be pragmatic.
We -- we we test drove Herman Cain we tried.
How -- or Gingrich.
Yeah what we we we test drove a whole bunch well.
Key part.
Tea Party candidates and it didn't work out and we realizes the big prizes November.
It's Barack Obama and Mitt Mitt Romney is by no means perfect.
But I think people are just getting very pragmatic in this at this time because I don't think they think that.
Any of the people who claim to be the Tea Party alternative are legitimately keep party and wouldn't be able to beat them.
It's interesting when I said conservative view went immediately to Tea Party there is the Tea Party conservative certainly.
But there are other conservatives who -- not Tea Party.
And frankly we have not seen even a suggestion of the energy and the animation.
So far in this contest.
In 2012 that we saw.
In the mid term elections in 2010.
Is that going to change or we're going to see.
A greater presence on the part of the Tea Party.
-- it's interesting because the last six months has been dominated by the last attempt to create a counter Tea Party.
That could rise to Barack Obama's.
Defense and effect and the fact that's what the Occupy Movement was supposed to be.
The Tea Party hasn't had not been really have an election in November of last year I think that the Tea Party.
Still exist if it gets in he has I would and yes there is that you were going in a bit of a long way to -- to that answer let me just sort of stop your where your in the travel.
Let's.
This Occupy Wall Street movement.
I which I think it's a tired of hearing in the left -- And liberal national media.
Because there is no move I mean there is there -- handfuls of people or and they number.
My -- -- I couldn't I couldn't find a number that would approach a 100000 nationwide.
And -- suddenly becomes a movement I don't understand how that's been there's been a -- in the back.
The bad that doesn't matter as long as ABC CBS and NBC CNN and MSNBC have cameras there and are able to create the perception.
That a hundred people -- -- -- large constituency.
The media is going to use.
Occupy.
Even when it's ten people strong.
As I saw -- -- rate give back or occupied chapel.
Itself they're they're gonna be sitting there about regular I I I was there across from my hotel.
That they they will try to to look at it in it is in the best possible light we're going to be breaking news story within the next week.
That will show you that the rates -- occupying in New York specifically are astronomical.
A number -- -- that wolf shock people.
And this is coming from with an occupied.
-- with in the the occupying your camp.
And they've been trying to suppress that.
That's -- gonna be a very big story.
It it.
I infer from what's -- saying that there were no police reports.
Of those rates.
There was an attempt by many people within occupied a report on these rates but they didn't want negative press attention.
To them it's -- it was always an unsafe environment from word one.
But they were so trying to create a good media story that they were women were -- women not to report the rate.
Order -- part is always controversial Bob publisher extraordinaire always good to talk -- there and look forward to talking to you listen.
Thanks a lot and -- -- -- and two all.
