After last night but he set.

-- -- -- say that I'm thrilled to be here and have also asked for the sake of balance the invisible that he wasserman Schultz gets you down.

I don't wanna say I'm save it and we're gonna play a little -- for IB you would love to get your react to that but -- -- about.

You can -- the I.

I yes I did -- him about Mitt because I want it's a national conservative movement preserves give Americans a clear choice.

And you know mid course I mean let's face it he's been his whole life flip flopping and that's who he has he's gonna deal with that later in the campaign.

And last night I think he did something really Smart he lowered.

The bar I -- the key line of last night was and he said.

I'm not gonna promise to heal the earth I'm not -- props to roll back the -- I do promise I'll help your family when Jose.

It would just report lower reasonable bar and it it -- it's a great way to highlight the gap I think is really gonna hurt present Obama.

Next week images -- you know Democrats feel that the gap between what was promised and what was delivered.

I don't say the guy wrote speeches I speech is rarely accomplished anything has always kill we always -- over now analyse afterwards what didn't do last night.

He introduced himself to budget people would never really met him before he.

-- connected with them mostly -- has -- very effectively.

-- laid out some specifics not a lot but is five point plan Bryant he definitely gave the argument -- to fire President Obama and he did it all while looking good in.

That's really all you can ask -- from this -- so I thought of as a piece of political work.

I give an apps -- Yes you talked earlier about both the idea that whether their policy specifics -- -- there's a five point plan but you know Paul Ryan was probably more specific and then.

You know -- the the attacks afterwards and people questioning whether or not he was factual and some of the specific city brought up whereas Romney was more biographical.

I said I thought the video that they produced was it was fairly powerful in terms of telling a story about and is a -- analyst kind of thing but.

Seeing you think the Republicans accomplished what they set out to do this week.

Michigan is that you know it's funny I was all of our good friend I -- out few weeks ago.

And I said to need all election should be looked at like this -- a Bob or your plumber would you rehire him read what's in the bathroom or would you fire.

And that the challenges well okay maybe I want to fire my guy but is the other guy OK and that's the bar Mitt Romney has to crosses isn't.

Is he an okay choice can I move my vote for Obama which I did.

Which the majority of independents want to do can -- move -- there and they spent the whole week I think really saying it's okay not what I was you know wow you are.

I think I promise you the -- money pouring in from -- -- -- -- -- all right the guy's not a weird though he's not a not.

He's a nice enough guy he knows what he's doing it's okay to make the change.

And that's what next week's message is going to be opposite what -- you think of Obama hate Republicans you cannot trust them.

Well that'll be and we talked we're wondering what that and you may be right what the tunnel -- -- Charlotte but before we get to that in a minute -- we will spend a minute or two here on companies would just for fun because I'm just know you love this type of stuff whether.

You know there it's just -- the guys who were watching this last run amok at a suggested anybody's gonna change their vote one way or another not vote for Romney because of -- -- or vote for a month.

But it was so strange and -- if somebody wasn't watching our fell asleep before this happened last night I have to take at least the second set it up because of -- play this clip out of context is what the civil you don't -- led to one of the -- great movie stars of all time is on the stage of the Republican Convention is that you know advocate for Romney and he starts interviewing President Obama.

Although President Obama was there as -- empty chair.

It really happened it happened and primetime with millions of people watching on television last night and here's what it look like.

Would you want to tell -- me.

I can't.

Do can't do that to himself.

-- -- You're getting as bad as -- Okay.

Okay.

Honestly don't know -- music.

Biden Biden is intellect of the Democratic Party -- -- -- -- -- Kind of -- and -- the body behind it.

And it went on from there Michael.

The question be glad today is -- know what he was delayed and I don't even think that did -- know where -- -- -- -- admiral Stockdale although there are a couple of Scott Stockdale moment I want those short.

But I heard some people say well.

Yeah he was really sell it to a different group people that would follow politics in this kind of they have an attitude will approach towards politics and he -- -- once again cool -- okay to be anti Obama but he on the favorite part is yes knowing that somewhere in Washington DC.

Joseph Biden was -- it less likely.

So Obama is not there right.

Usually isn't -- yeah this is not -- that would my favorite part.

Without paying people wonder whether he thought he was there it is really interviewed him for a -- but I'll buy just.

Nothing like that has ever happened and they didn't never walk out again so if for that reason alone it was worth it and again it may be nothing it probably means nothing.

But I wish that -- one on all night that's just the way we think -- you know that's wrong.

Bonds all the time and that's -- You know what when of the convention ever make news almost never that was at least something to talk about how also say -- they talk show host at four hours to do this afternoon yes thank you -- these.

Exactly gift from god all right Michael thank you very much Michael Graham -- messages.
