Pleased.
On whatever you're doing.
But to White House correspondent -- and you could have just -- Jesus not elected to something.
-- -- incoming president of the association so I get to.
Due to dinner next year.
Have this sort oversee it and you don't think in that does the best way to make a splash picture might be to bring back yard man.
As a comedian but he held fire up the alchemy you know and -- you -- we think.
Adjustment to spot the worst do not.
Anyone's ever -- -- when you zone.
Sorry -- are -- think more on it now.
The other -- and eventually takes office.
Campaign over the -- and to what appeared to me to do you have centers stadiums.
What I guess -- nobody -- -- bottom line I talked of the organizers from Ohio State I was there with the president at Ohio -- on Saturday called mr.
And I spoke spoke to the organizers sort not Obama folks they were Ohio -- folks who.
From a you know restrict not -- standpoint -- there were 30000 artist BP's for the event.
I asked them how big your real -- -- hold about 20000 people.
Social -- you to -- would spill over -- we don't know yet because we're not sure how many people are gonna short because students -- Austria's debt.
Well actually -- -- -- -- only about 141000.
Showed up.
I think that does raise some questions in the key battleground.
I want you got 30000 -- BP's in less than actual.
As to whether -- -- you know the president's got sort of that -- magic touch he had in 2008 about turn out but I think.
What also needs to be -- in fairness and present it is.
That I've looked at I haven't been out of the local Google camera doesn't build the Romney campaign but.
From our television and I have not seen 141000 people shall -- and he'd probably eventual.
I think the president may be getting -- they've gotten 2008 but it still mourned Rabin is getting in 2012.
So at the end of the day you may not have a website the presently to -- 2008 with over 200 particular local.
But he may still get enough to reach to seventy and and and can win by small market.
Even know why our minds on the it's not your house payment.
-- -- yeah I'm gonna talk.
I I -- evolves around now we're -- him.
To a zero report that oil.
-- for -- They're really now.
What liability what do you what do you like the world.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- I gonna have to -- -- mr.
okay but that.
So Iowa -- -- you know Brigham and has provided -- -- -- -- put this salt of the class warfare what's the president's message.
Well look at the message that I heard in Ohio and and -- rich enough Virginia.
War.
I'll forward as the new campaign slogan and the president's all about this a choice election between what he'd do it what Mitt Romney Republican -- bill would do.
And -- and I think is.
But he doesn't want people look backward not backward of the bush years but backward.
Through the first 33 and a half years of the Obama administration that -- the Republican National Committee immediately put out -- video.
Shown to present in the same state of Ohio in 2008 saying the big question -- that election what are you -- are going to be better off for years from now.
In 2012 what do you regard to -- vol in the present case -- The question today is -- you'd be better off for years from now so it's pretty obvious.
That what he's trying to do -- buy some more time and say look -- We're still in somewhat of -- crisis here.
But he can -- -- a little bit better and I would point out.
That there is a quinnipiac -- from traditional -- respect people -- -- Ohio.
That showed that 55% of Ohio voters think the economy is recovering that's good president but in the same poll.
40% -- Romney would do better job and on the economy have been present at.
So you've got a Pulitzer restrict credit to people saying the economy is recovering about what your -- -- in Ohio key battleground is lower than the national average.
-- should be good for the present.
Outlook and yet more people are saying what we would do better jobs bill appointed I don't think you're getting credit.
For the recovery we'll see whether he gets that credit before November that's the question.
-- just go to work for the Obama campaign.
Business.
And I'm -- -- -- -- term balanced but I mean there's just such a network warrior hero world reporter well so.
-- Oh actually not perhaps it was it was apple -- BP's.
But more than half of the 20000 seat arena reporting out that there -- -- streets.
That's not good for the president I think it's fair to also -- to be sure that we're probably not getting fourteen -- little old quarter.
So you know call me call me Obama -- -- targets I guess that's your latest -- On no amendment and then once it's done.
Why do we have to be fair not fair and balanced you got to point out.
That the president -- problems but sort of -- Romney plus a bit of interest duration of the Mitt Romney you may be voting for a but he didn't have a thing to back nutrients and balances not helping me and my -- Who are people really care about your your guy from until well apparently don't -- -- left the principal arbiter like -- by the every last appearance.
Well I want averting global everyday but you know the rest of the show.
Well you know -- -- -- -- -- -- had little effect and I you don't agree ride a quarter actually our.
The darker blue -- Unfortunately Stearns balanced had -- -- -- well acted like they announce early all's well.
And -- come on attention.
On memory don't need to be done -- I don't need to hear a negative information about my gosh.
They're pretty injustice -- overlaps.
All our under events and pay bottle Biden on that -- Who do you love -- law.
-- -- are the way between now and November because look up between the vice president -- on the depression are looking to president has that they all.
That there -- favor favor of same -- parents but yet they won't officially -- And that's actually you know angering people on the left more than 200 people right because -- supporters of this president -- -- saying look you're already pretty far down the road and saying.
That you know.
There should be an expression that it would be mentioned at the same right.
As as heterosexual couples and yet there's -- the president doesn't want to say that it told that they after the election.
Because there are some conservatives stayed -- opening to win you know win whether it be North Carolina -- Virginia -- You know lump in Seattle July last under some states that you know he doesn't want -- -- people after the election.
Reported delay.
I'm still battling cancer.
And sister I look at.
The rebel by the way -- -- of course aren't gonna work thinking about hiring a guy who did the Obama campaign documentary.
I would think we're thing about having him do -- 22 minute documentary about your brave battle with not just cancer but but all the other alleged to have so that that's one thing under consideration.
This Chinese dissident hesitant.
All of the net the net net or barnacles.
It and burning the net net of that as it looks like Hillary Clinton -- throne -- above -- none.
-- I know China's but the most complicated relationship we've got.
With with somebody -- supposed to be a little bit of -- these days.
Because you know look Eric I was at that news conference about we can go to their take a look at -- staying with the Japanese have mr.
That's about this case -- -- my colleagues and and just look -- -- we're -- -- -- to remind the Chinese Government about that good yet when it comes to a specific case like.
We have our current actually standing up for the Chinese Government because we've got a whole range of other issues that we're working with -- -- whether it be currency whether it be trade.
And so so it -- very complicated and they also I think you're gonna see administration there's no easy solution to something like dissident.
The dissident was saying generous -- point that he wanted to jump on Hillary Clinton's plane.
Contact United States I mean it sounds simple but that would get a little bit that -- -- don't think the district US secretary of state.
Took dissident out of China just gonna bring them for the US to it would -- -- you.
