This is an implosion.

Of the Obama policy.

-- -- with the Muslim world us.

The Middle East and northern Africa and and South Asia.

Wind no direct response from Republican candidate -- no direct response from this president.

-- all along has bid that Barack Obama the better foreign policy president -- domestic president.

Which isn't saying very much given the sorry.

Record -- -- at home.

Source governor Romney -- is run -- he is nowhere he's talking about the economy.

He's not talking about what's happening in the Middle East you know I was I was -- engaging.

In what's really hot and in bothering people today what.

And we have not heard and I understand that there -- as we were discussing earlier.

The idea that he was so roundly criticized in the liberal media.

Governor Romney but surely understand by now.

He's going to be criticized no matter what -- -- -- little liberal national media is no longer complicit with the Obama administration.

They are it's accomplice threat -- And in I I can't imagine why that would be an anyway constraining to a now.

We you know I've been doing some reporting -- on from my sources in Jerusalem Washington.

And the Chicago.

Campaign headquarters of Barack Obama.

And what I've learned is that the trust.

Between -- Barack Obama.

And Benjamin that -- if -- Yahoo! has hit the lowest point ever.

And that Netanyahu does not believe that Obama have Israel's back when it comes to Iran.

And Obama and his people David Axelrod and company believed that it Netanyahu is grossly and these are words that I've heard.

From my sources in Chicago.

Grossly interfering in American domestic politics by siding with Mitt Romney.

-- -- with him appearing and a super pac.

Certain is news.

Order it wasn't done specifically about that.

Of that there is some evidence to -- to then prime minister's preference shall we say so the prime minister asks for a meeting.

And what does the Chicago group think they -- themselves were infected.

He's asking for a meeting with the Barack Obama but what he really wants is for -- to say okay -- meet with you.

Giving him an excuse -- to -- would Mitt Romney which they don't want to say.

-- -- let's turn to what is happening politically right now.

Obama his campaign.

Organization are -- governor Romney and his campaign's.

Sales -- -- right now in floor in Virginia in Ohio.

He has only and the latest Fox News poll.

President Obama is given greater credit by those surveyed for being able to deal with the economy which has been the purview.

Of governor Romney.

This is turning badly.

For governor Romney at this stage and 46 phase out its the world and I grant you.

But it's profound what you have here are.

Two men one Obama.

May be not a good president may be a lousy president but a fantastic campaign -- entertainer.

Outperformer.

And then you have Mitt Romney whose whole campaign.

Has been.

Soggy -- she lack of focus.

Can in turn it around.

I don't think without a big shakeup I don't I think he would need to shake up the highest level for the campaign.

I think he'd would need to bring in some.

Wise head to run the campaign the Republican Party.

John Boehner Eric Cantor the Republican leadership in Washington Mitch McConnell.

Where are they why isn't there one voice for the for the nominate.

Is an extraordinary.

And pitiful performance to this point when it comes to party unity supporting the candidate.

And I'm always good in.
