-- -- -- -- eke out tonight in the on -- Not so sure that.

Do is keep our support -- -- in Illinois is a moderate state it's got a lot of moderate Republicans.

In -- had a very strong ground campaign don't know why I'm on the way to get.

He did I -- I'm concerned -- not -- -- I'm going on on our exit polls.

That that Parse this out a little bit and talked about tea parties as well.

That edged out and you're right they're very very close very very close but edged out in favor Romney over Santorum.

What are you to make -- -- Well I think that people probably -- -- they didn't wanna.

So they're totally ended they've been given a perception that Romney is the front runner in you don't buy -- you you sell them by the prime.

Well you know -- Mitt Romney doesn't actually inspire -- and is that he's a decent person he's is these these fairly mild mannered and people.

Don't like overbearing leaders in them -- need to get -- that they kind of mold of what kind of -- -- there kind of leader.

I'm sure -- be a strong leader in the background but perceptive perception wise -- seems to be up fairly mild -- I think people are drawn to that.

In Italy in his argument and -- goes day on I thank the Big Easy anti Romney and that's what people kind of jumped on that didn't work -- inspired by him.

And -- that's why he even got it is sparsely god they I think.

It is to give -- a good candidate.

You know David it's interesting when it's also a lot of Tea Party -- I always admired your your resolute minutes -- you're you're you're not.

Seen the -- you're black and white very clear in the -- is very focused on the issues.

And and very determined to get spending under control I guess something many steepeners are -- don't see -- Mitt Romney -- maybe see a little bit more.

In -- and -- but you seem to be saying.

That you could in the end support.

Mitt Romney not gleefully -- but.

In the end until it.

Oh definitely.

If if Mitt Romney -- the nominees then more support him if Newt Gingrich is sort all lower income whichever one yup absolutely.

All right we don't think they would optical -- the man it's going to get our spending under control.

-- David great having you thank you so much.

-- -- David L to go to parties stick to their guns and at least in Illinois not the David was one of institute's board Mitt Romney and I mean it's because it was close.

Until about Tea Party support in general among Republicans it was sweeping -- Mitt -- And a chance for him to take.

Alliance here not all of the 54 delegates at stake tonight enough to given have to delegates.

He is going to need but remember you need 1144.

I was -- rain and repeating that.

That's a -- to lock it up and doing the -- as we do we are Fox Business it would mean back ending this to around June.

By which time we get California voting in New Jersey voting and -- you buy just the polls and where Mitt Romney is leading Citi secure victories along the way.

In some of these winner take all states it's around early June.

Credit losses -- that is the best case scenario Rick Santorum Newt Gingrich Ron Paul might beg to differ.

So we'll do it -- us.
