Tonight.

Time Ronnie Chan is joining us now he's a Romney a political advisor this is what we.

Asked for last time you are on the show together you did you saw that do you -- those one line as -- in line.

-- -- I'm trying to take credit for that but but I but I think that we're trying to convey a message here about what this election's going to be about this election's going to be about the economy.

It's going to be about president Obama's failed stewardship of the economy and so it in that sense where we're glad that the message came across clearly.

But what what I'd look I was on the the Sean Hannity is TV show.

Just ask Mitt Romney did that speech the other night Tuesday night after -- the five primaries.

And I made the point I thought he was -- a well polished candidate in the that was a very good and positive.

Is this statement about the economy.

But now let me turn to something that may be something of a negative.

And that is the resentment that some people in America feel towards rich people.

Mitt Romney is obviously rich and us some resentment -- I wanna know how all that -- how you gonna count that view go.

Well governor Romney has been successful -- and he's proud of the fact that that that he's had success but the reality is that we need to build America.

Where successes -- awarded as opposed to demonized and president Obama's created a culture in America.

Aware successes demonized and so the reality is as the governor said in -- speech the other night we want an America.

Where children are encouraged to succeed and succeed beyond their wildest dreams and that's -- kind of American -- Mitt Romney wants to build.

And that's the kind of America will have -- Mitt Romney's policies are put into place Mitt Romney wants to return us to an opportunity society which president Obama's -- us away from.

I just wanna quote to you now a Fox News poll.

And it was the question do you think that if you tax wealthy people -- Will it help or -- the economy and is the results.

40% of people polled said it would help the economy if you tax people rich people mall.

Only 24% to 48 would -- the economy.

34% said no difference at all.

How do you account of -- because President Obama is calling for more taxes on the rich how do you account -- that message.

Well I think we're gonna run an optimistic campaign we're gonna run a campaign that's based on what we need to do to turn America around.

And we need to do to get the economy really growing again I mean you know you saw.

You guys -- just talking about the GDP numbers and I think the reality is that this economy is not recovering and it's not growing at the pace it needs to grow.

It in order for the American people to really see a turnaround.

And that's what governor -- is going to -- so we're gonna run an optimistic vision and people are gonna see that success is something that shouldn't be demonized that should be rewarded.

And approaches like the -- attacks -- the president's been campaigning for gonna be rejected because the American people are gonna reject that negative pessimistic vision of America.

Can I just make a suggestion.

I think governor Romney sure you have.

The what is will have.

I think governor Romney should stress that if you reform taxes.

-- -- tax rates.

Eliminate loopholes you'll actually get more out of rich people than raising tax rates just a suggestion -- let's if you take up this what can.

Like jet everybody -- obliterated.

I mean really agree with you right thanks so much for joining us come again soon OK good to see you.
