To that I would it stands to Republicans since I mean they don't.
-- you would think it would be an atmosphere now are we we -- it we see it.
But I almost get the sense in Washington on the political leaders there are both parties we're just gonna -- particular problems of I don't know you know sort of -- -- the -- -- -- -- -- -- Well personal I don't think they can accomplish much they'd they'd look Paul Ryan comes up with a pretty sensible plan one or think about Paul Ryan's plan it didn't go far enough.
I think it I'd like the Mac -- plan.
Which is -- you know you have six years you cut a penny of every dollar the Washington spends.
Holding spending at current levels he do for six years you keep growth for the next two years at 18% of GDP historically where we have -- We are at a balanced budget in eight years it -- here's here's why I am concerned.
If we continue down this path this country will be Greece we will be bankrupt it isn't.
-- the united debt for graduating kids director capita we're hired a look at -- -- were higher -- -- was 70% now what here's what they have cures two.
In this environment.
The polls were tight.
Didn't in Wisconsin -- zero so it's close it's with a margin America.
Now we know we one.
Comfortable Scott what bigger than 22 -- -- morning wondering -- nationally if -- been would like to on this not foxes foals are very reliable as you know but that did that.
It might not be as close as it appears well didn't I see three scenarios and they're all predictable I see a close election that Romney wins I could see -- situation.
Where Obama could come back and I could see that you you know the unfolding of a fairly large landslide by governor Romney.
Whoever envision a comfortable Obama went.
No under no circumstances but -- you can -- in fact that they don't change and it in another words right after this big event is cataclysmic event Wisconsin of them.
You have Joseph Biden -- a more spending a fifty billion dollar transportation bill a sixty dollar college tuition bill so there's still going full throttle on this it to two reasons a key.
At one is any opportunity Diddy had to follow the Clinton model triangulation which is the -- of big government is over.
The end -- welfare as we we noted though that's gone.
And the second thing is I think any chance for the economy to recover.
And that means either -- gas prices which would if we started drilling like North Dakota where it's three and a half percent unemployment.
That would help the -- he's not doing any of the about is that so so so -- recover but you know is -- pretty Smart guy is pretty good strategy is and they must be figuring.
That this populist approach -- doesn't -- well you're right but that this is gonna get them over the finish line.
I think what the president has doubled down as I think he has come to the conclusion that he's lost middle of the country and that's why you see all these efforts to.
Energized the base I mean I think that's -- the gay marriage issue was about I think.
You know the president's hyperbole and is his rhetoric and as propaganda Republicans want dirty air water they don't care about granny they wanna -- -- over the cliff.
This is all strategy to energize the base of the party.
That's not gonna go over I think with the independents that will decide this election we've really this this election is gonna come down eleven states we all know what they are.
And I think the governor Romney.
Being close now I think Dick Morris's analysis is right that.
Come Election Day if they haven't decided to re elect Barack Obama.
They will all break towards the challenger in this case which is written -- like Carter -- Reagan with a broken literally the last week this is -- that this is as close -- Is that that -- I think the best analogy.
And terms of looking at a modern day presidential race but in terms of the circumstances that we see in this particular race.
All right thank you and I've known as sort of almost twenty right here comps don't it's curious on this a personal incomes and -- forget about it in -- you've been pool is very good in trying to make we will stop.
