The reason I -- some reason -- push John this is because the longer you wait.
It's it's officially endorse somebody I'd go -- the more opportunity there is for people like Donald Trump to say.
Hey I might throw my hat into the ring if if that if the GOP can't get its act together and focus on one candidate.
Maybe trouble get what do you think -- Donald Trump getting in the race.
I think at this point to third party candidacy will just insurer and Obama reelection and that would be tragic -- I do have a lot of respect though for a Donald Trump and his business acumen and in the energy that he provides to but no at this point.
You know a third party candidate seen would not do conservatives.
Any good.
All right but it may not be a third party I mean we may have for example all this -- go right up to the convention itself.
Have a brokered convention in which somebody that's not now running get into the race like Mitch Daniels what happens if Mitch Daniels says.
You know things are so bad I gotta get back into -- even though I do have some qualms about.
Well whoever idiots who would be one to be perceived as challenging in the primary.
Rodney or in the general who would be the closest challenger to Obama they are going to get clobbered by the machine and by those dollar so -- to Mitch Daniels who decides he needs to get in there.
Used to brace himself and understand he's gonna get hit with the same things that you Gingrich has been hit with any -- every other front reading challenger to.
To that kind of the chosen one that it.
Taking admit it's -- Daniels for instance -- that as a specific.
Possibility there people are gonna ask well why was it under Mitch Daniels -- charge of budgets in the federal government.
Why did we start building up that debt in those big deficit spending and really government grew too much under him how can you explain that.
Every candidate potential or candidate in the race now will have those questions asked of them.
As to how it can be that they -- part of us -- And it's -- status quo I think.
Status quo is Latin for the mess that we're and how -- they have been a part of that and expect for us to believe that they've changed their stripes and now they're gonna be wants to.
-- -- not all around -- get the economy growing what I'm hearing from -- fighting encapsulate for second is that.
The general election can be -- down and dirty and there's so much waited in the president's favor first all he is president but the media in the money at -- That you're gonna need the toughest fighter.
You can find -- go against set and the toughest fighter.
Right now among those running for president is Newt Gingrich on the Republican side is that -- percent.
I'm -- right now today I items net David because.
You have learned through that school of hard knocks and you know that is where character is shaped and that's where character is rebuild -- In times of controversy.
Getting conflict.
Not a time of convenience and comfort.
I see that -- knew that he has learned and that he has been sharpened.
And -- strengthen through all of that and I think that that would bode well.
For what it is that we need in terms of I mean this Obama machine that will be up against that's not to say that.
Weeks from -- our months from now.
As the vetting process is still early 46 still happen to have opportunity to chime in I would say that -- -- -- finer.
Governor final question has nothing to do with the elections or frankly anything that -- -- -- -- important but the movie game changer is coming up Julianne Moore -- very beautiful actress wonderful actress I think about it was gonna be plan.
The role of Sarah Palin in the movie do you have any plans a bouncy that.
-- not no but hell no I wouldn't waste my time or my money.
Watching something that you know is based on a false narrative -- You know Kiet and campaigns that are willing to throw somebody under the bus for their own I guess security.
I think that kind of stuff is a waste of time -- ridiculous.
Just a waste of tax.
Governor thank you very much for coming up by the way is that global warming behind you -- city is that that's -- that's a real picture real time of Alaska right.
That's real time and global warming yeah I'd be voting for it at this point I -- -- -- getting kind of tired of us.
