Do you feel a little weird.
No not really not at all I mean I I get into this race was motivated get out there and try to make a difference by.
That's -- -- another four years of Barack Obama and what he would do to the economy this country.
The culture of this country the size and -- -- government the relationship of government to its people.
And now it's just because I'm not on the ballot.
Does -- make that mission many different and so on.
Try to complete the mission.
As best I can come.
Finally Scott did registered just me in my just gut reaction during business days ahead at the -- And Mitt Romney didn't like you to talk.
Not I can't say that that's true at all get me.
You know I've -- -- -- outlook the candidate -- it's not true I mean.
You know.
Governor I mean I had and I think -- very intense.
Debated and for me it.
It was a matter of trust it's a matter of cannot believe what you're saying now is that you really are gonna do.
And and I I had concerns about that candidate gets their debt because this you know he has boat ride out its ticket -- -- waits a lot of concern and I'm one of but.
A lot of people say -- VP pick that's not change.
Your -- -- -- -- at and I was sort of -- while the other day said I don't know I don't know.
Yeah I would say here -- if you would have picked a solid conservative like.
-- I would said the same thing.
Hi this.

What -- -- my fears is that Paul Ryan.
Is not a -- is not just a solid conservative Paul Ryan is defined by one thing ideas.
And bold idea.
And when you adopt -- as your BP your adopted those ideas.
It's not true with Rob Portman and -- and he loves a good -- what's the right way.
But he's not the leader Paul Ryan was on a vision for the future of our country basically economically and fiscally.
And what Mitt Romney said was -- -- I'm gonna come with a people -- -- talk about the real problems that confront this country and I'm gonna make this campaign about issues and I think that was an important difference.
But you know when I covered the rates considered UN I think very -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- would -- -- it -- A lot of voters.
Love you.
But they said we could win would Mitt Romney.
And -- other words it's all the ones who wanted to vote for you did.
Divided into different result of that.
Either you weren't considered -- -- buried -- alive -- he never blinked on that very admirable but you don't he would always through the years convictions.
And I guess that feeling was that I could never get elected president but side its bid from began so we'll go -- -- Being you know its conventional wisdom.
They said that oh my god they said to have all my god yeah.
That's you're just repeating what drives them but -- like that -- -- -- all right.
I think people there is such a passion out there to defeat Barack Obama.
And so I think what a lot of -- it is thought this is the safe choice.
And it look at I can't argue with the conventional ways of all I can say is that.
You know week.
We have a nominee who's running as a conservative.
Iran is not backed away from -- -- during the campaign day of -- -- all -- You force it to the right qualified did he hasn't come back.
He stayed there he solidified it with -- and it's only if I'm too conservative.
This guys run on the platform.
And I would run on the Republican platform would be the same other -- -- -- -- -- Romney.
And if you look at most of the policies he's putting forward the pretty strong principled conservative policies.
Well I think anyone who -- -- it is you read Malibu -- think.
You're very decent human being.
Multifamily everyone all right well thank you care of the kids -- -- -- amazingly well.
Analyst still elusive.
This as a bittersweet obviously you know we got to get that back.
That's a mixed bag out they're probably -- -- don't see any really good run for fifth death at a Condo credit and less like things about it.
Yeah the -- here you know I have my advice of my -- seventy knows there was clear right now Daniel who say you know political.
I used to do it didn't I've -- -- that the B I'll I -- you know.
