Buchanan -- in this Ron disorderly.

Saying pretty much of that right what were you telling reporters and those here.

About Mitt Romney.

That it was an extraordinarily strong performance by the governor we -- we're -- on -- room about twenty.

And we're just -- -- -- -- -- we thought the governor got stronger he went -- what made this data centers.

Because because -- you know Americans and we wanna make certain Americans and tens of names of people to again really get a feeling for the kind of.

Leader that governor Romney is kind of person he -- and I view another big concern that he was not really -- that it -- he's not getting people's faces.

Conservatives were little -- -- and I worked eighty deliver on that are.

He delivered so well because because -- -- the key here is.

You wanna to -- be respectful the president you know you don't wanna just going there and be overly aggressive but it's -- -- of -- wanted to challenge the president.

-- want to pressure him to explain what is your plan because what's happening now isn't working.

In him what governor Romney showed I think those two -- -- he understands the problems out there.

He has a free hand to -- any showed enormous confidence that he understood it but you know they did this plan.

Again you know these debates are drive I've moderated -- -- of one of the questioners.

I've watched a lot of debates.

On I've watched the governor very closely he's.

Never put in a performance like this not easy what I remain to the president put someone got a good -- you've got to juice it up man.

He get immediate he was.

He was superb I think what he showed -- system.

I'm ready for -- I'm ready to be the -- the United States I understand the problems this is serious and I want to let the president know that he has failed and he's got explain.

To the viewers where we're going to -- in the president wasn't able to do that that -- to explain what his -- and his supporters and explain.

Why -- happy any different and all that he -- done -- -- but the key I thought that was what was interesting is what the governor was able to do.

Is explained the issues.

As he saw them in why Obama's policies have failed and why his proposals we're not going to work.

So that people could see this is a guy who does understand -- -- can do it he can turn this country around and that's key because -- There what's -- and they among some -- The conservatives and a lot of in fighting back and forth that Mitt Romney was losing -- is that in the swing states he was swinging away from this.

Tomorrow morning this this is -- game changer anyone who -- and I know that goes up -- in -- out there who are worried.

That they will see that this guy is such a religious -- -- liberal friends who have not it was you know even some conservatives wanted to see.

Let's not I'm more defendant is the definitive on policy -- or are tougher against Obama.

And in the sought but -- he didn't and it in a powerful way I thought away that showed respect for the president which -- run as an important.

But it seems that -- was Ronald.

I think the president was rattled he was hesitant.

In -- first section he kept repeating the same -- you know finally he says the moderator -- there.

Hey can we do want to another topic here you know like I've had enough on this one -- right now -- you've taken my second.

-- that was yes I I think the president not only was the governor strong.

I think the president was was weak he was hesitant he's unsure of himself he was repetitive.

And he wasn't able to make the sell to explain why four more -- should be worth it quiet why we could feel things get better.

And I think there's no question after watching the governor you know.

That -- four years with under under president Romney.

Things will be better things will be far better community analysts nineteen -- imports I have my answer there's going to be a -- and I that but even warrant that.

-- about the reserves bear with us.

They are with this hitting Louisiana you guys -- -- -- I talked to them all the time you know they're worried our party is and that that stopped I think that's a lot of but also I think independents who are worried out there.

Who want to make certain that.

That the governor can do -- they saw me and ready to be president and I think this is going to turn.

-- but in fairness -- the polls were coming our way in the last couple days well we shall see that it -- it very nice you know stop by we appreciate -- they Buchanan.
