Ignored archer well no you should care because it's going to be the big arguments yet to set up opposite -- it's like right now we're -- the campaign we're.

They're trying to define each other and the definition is very interesting actually the definition -- Romney is he's an out of touch rich dad who doesn't give.

Rents are about you -- me front -- -- -- there with his rich buddies and the elevator in the mansion -- on the coast and I'll and if they can convince you that in fact he isn't the only thing about jobs or about the economy.

It undermines the premise of his whole campaign so now here comes.

That the really is wrong is of course.

-- gonna go at President Obama and say you know you're not a good Steward of the economy you don't know how to make this economy -- and produce jobs and oil Obama OK so Obama has every right to say oh yeah.

And you said that your so great about jobs so let's look at -- -- record what's your job record of record of job production Massachusetts.

Not so let's look at what you did it being let's see you produce jobs or just made money for yourself well illegitimate about that they did vote okay evident this that that that's a conversation and a and a.

And the president look at look what happened in General Motors the president and administration and us.

I have -- had the -- had to get rid of a bottom half of the people.

Who worked for General Motors close half the dealerships also saved the company that's all Romney did a bank capital okay exact same thing.

All right so but anyway -- state -- -- right now you and I are having a real conversation about exactly how do we get this economy going and a number one issue for all -- voters despite what you might -- -- about deficits is not deficits it's about growth and jobs.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- And so it's.

Strange event has -- -- -- -- Michelin sandwich.

Sold hundreds and -- respect.

Look puzzled that you are not digital penetration and I don't like -- you -- -- like their announcement.

Suddenly go all want -- for the Washington -- for over forty year listeners and her bark -- -- in truth.

A personal -- -- Ben Bradlee by Jeff and moment.

And so all over other -- close relationship.

Extremists -- -- moment.

And -- -- rattling selling -- column and now you're telling me want.

Well I mean I just you know when I came out -- -- arguing -- were pals and you said well not really but you know each other but I just because I like him a lot -- because band and Bob Woodward.

We're very close mister -- -- I mean as you can tell not only by the work but I mean for years and almost like you know father son and especially.

I think Bob had him as assistant but I think the band and he had of her personal relationship and right now they both feel betrayed because in the book coming -- crossed like -- -- Saying that he doesn't believe would Bob's.

Said about for example famously now that the the flower pot in the garage and -- used in that this stuff -- A lot of adorn the lower exaggeration -- in a lot of the writing that would redeem and so I think they feel like you know what this is not exactly what we thought was gonna come from -- -- -- -- -- They have been very cautious but I think that they have indicated that what was written is not what they understood not what they conveyed to mr.

Solo spotlight Ben Bradlee -- -- -- And Sally Quinn.

-- -- -- -- All of its.

All of these -- -- C that they were burning issue -- here.

But on and -- showed me -- among.

No idea -- you know what this is your show and one of the oil climbs out that it has no I look I see that you have friends now that's -- -- -- and that's why I made an inquiry -- all eyes and but I don't want to do some.

Home.

Now it benefits them locate and as we have -- them back now a look in May be told us I don't know I was in there but I'm Carolyn -- you know it's just like relationships are really important to me and I tend to be aware of our -- OK and that's when we'll find -- -- moment there.

-- -- -- -- -- -- Take -- -- monetary -- lot of debris that got by the back house on -- brother Jesse Jackson serves to result most talked called back to.

President Obama and talk about -- on -- announced nonsense and.

Yeah I don't see any indication that's but I mean it's so attractive.

Because when you look at the polls on Hillary Clinton can you believe this Hillary Clinton is the most popular political leader in America used to be called empowerment brawl at the I don't know it's Hillary Clinton.

Everybody now is and I love -- -- really Clinton who for years ago obviously could not win the democratic nomination even though she had all the money in the world and all the political connections in the -- then.

But now I -- you know -- we sure like her and of course with -- women.

Being the target in this election.

I'm back to my thing about it you know -- suburban woman outside of Columbus Orlando decide in the election everybody's -- if you just put her on the ticket it would take up.

Now the polls are all screwed up because you know some polls have Obama -- examples that Romney when he we don't know -- But the key thing here is -- you can win women.

You can win the election and wouldn't Hillary Clinton -- just below -- The drag and America's one and so you know that's why it's sitting out there but no I don't see any indication.

From the administration even after the big screw up last month merit garrison was when he got out from the president -- emeritus -- sent them out over his days as that's what the president and the -- of the -- worsen the problem.

How are you going to manage.

You know I I'm not comfortable with it -- wasn't comfortable with -- as a child and that you know it's interesting had a conversation like this with my -- basic you know I think -- -- look at all the biblical injunction -- I think it really was about men not warning to get raped.

And you know the whole notion of a stranger and a strange town or just being violently assaulted -- -- -- or something and it was to try to put a -- on it I understand that.

And as a young person you know you know especially you know a single can without -- -- -- -- you are you worried about yourself you know and you tough neighborhood you worry about these things.

So I understand that but it Utah but I've evolved and as president says and I think that I understand.

You know -- route if people earn a committed relationship you know what honor I don't have a -- but I'm delighted you advice at all yeah I'm I don't have any issues I don't.

Nonsense on December -- Ramallah muscle sports on -- that's what are saying yeah.
