Meanwhile senator Harry -- looking to raise the cost of electricity in his home state of Nevada that's right to raise the costs.

Of electricity the State's largest provider of electricity.

In -- energy is mandated to -- electricity.

From the lowest price producers.

But senator Reid doesn't care about those rules Reid says in the energy should be buying more.

And more expensive electricity from a Chinese solar company that is opening up for business in the back.

Not -- what is their electricity more expensive.

But want to -- science works for GM and -- hobby energy.

Well joining me now for more on read the 2012.

Presidential race.

Senior Romney advisor former New Hampshire governor White House chief of staff for president George H.

W.

Bush.

None other than John Sununu governor good to have you with.

Good to be here Lou how are you tonight I am well and I trust that you are given all of the the contests that are opening up -- wider variety of fronts this looks like.

Well if you will -- -- new new ground I would say that this is this is this is percolate and up just specially for you.

Look -- that the Harry Reid thing is that is interesting it's part of the Obama.

Class warfare effort they they had another effort.

Last week to try and divert attention from the real issues -- filed suit -- Ohio.

To block the extra days -- Ohio legislature gave the military.

For filing their absentee ballots that's that's consistent.

With what the Democrats did in -- Florida recount -- where they tried to stop the military absentee ballots from being -- itself.

Then they're avoiding everything that has an issue associated with -- and playing games around the edges.

I'm playing games Harry Reid I I mean is quite remarkable Bob Schieffer of CB it's comparing the situation through.

To the days of Joseph McCarthy the -- comments from the senate majority leader saying he would talk to an anonymous source and airport had.

License to say whatever the W please it's really quite remarkable -- it.

Well when various.

While other media let's put it that way start -- taking note of her reality.

-- look at the art form and -- -- answer I am not aware.

Of any for one from the White House that that's what you use when you hope that you don't know that somebody did it and and the coincidence of axle rod.

Talking to the democratic lunch and just before Harry Reid walked out and made some of these comments on the floor.

Look this is being guided directed or inspired you pick the word -- like.

By the White House campaign.

For President Obama and it's typical of what they do all the time.

They did -- that kinda stuff to Hillary Clinton.

They tried to do it do to John McCain they did it to Sarah Palin this is a slimy smarmy group.

That runs dirty campaigns and they are in the process of doing it now.

I have to say record Wright's previous and the chairman of the Republican National Committee calling senator -- a dirty liar.

Did you detect any redundant -- of corporate -- his -- asked.

-- it's such a nice guy I was astounded to hear those words but more importantly senator Lindsey Graham.

A colleague of of senator Reid and you know how senators bend over backwards to be collegial.

Told them the world that that Harry Reid was lying Harry Reid is lying Harry Reid has a history of lying and Harry Reid has a history of incompetence.

But but the most important thing is what what is President Obama doing about it -- just sitting there enjoying.

The mischief that his campaign has started we have eight point 3% unemployment.

Last quarter one and a half percent growth rate if you really look at the unemployment figures that came out instead of the positive spin the liberal media's giving.

If you look at table lay in in in the release that came out from the Bureau of Labor Statistics you see a 150000.

Fewer people worked in July.

Then in June.

-- firm for a variety of reasons including being fired or whatever and the fact is this economy's going down the drain.

And you have a president.

That for over 200 days has avoided meeting with his own jobs council I don't understand why people -- understand how incompetent this president is.

And how detached he is from the reality of the problem.

A 104 rounds of -- 198.

On races that don't you know we have a lot of time does -- He -- taken had played nine holes one day instead of eighteen and sat down with his jobs council.

But but -- I guess the jobs problem in America is not that important to.

He hasn't passed a budget.

He will be the only president in history could be is going to be a one tremor that never had a budget asked during his term he's not even trying.

It's unbelievable.

Governor -- senator good to have you with its good to be here have a nice evening --
