time for political buzz. roar rapid fire look at best political topics of the day. three questions, 30 seconds on the clock. our panel, all right, before we dive into last night's debate, let's take a listen to letterman, shall we, and his take on the seating chart. >> we'll say, all right, here's a composite of polls. here's our leader, our second place -- that's how they arranged the people on the stage for the debate.

it's fascinating. take a look at this. participants in tonight's republican debate at dartmouth will be seated according to their poll numbers, so based on his recent momentum, herman cain will be seated at the center of the table with mitt romney. second tier candidates like newt gingrich and ron paul will be placed to the side of the table. and rick santorum will debate from the parking lot. >> nice ad for fedex, too. reviews for perry haven't been that strong. question, where will perry be sitting at the cnn debate next tuesday? >> where he was last night. just off the center. i don't think last night was much of a game changer for him. he wasn't strong. that's for sure, but also didn't fall on his face. you know, in fact it looked like he didn't even care he was there. i saw somebody tweet last night that -- that perry was saying, who cares about this fancy pants

debate. getting ready for negative ads, mitt. i think polls will reflect exactly where he started yesterday. he'll be there again tomorrow. >> maria? >> i think it was a bad night for rick perry. of anyone, he really needed a game changer. now, whether this does change anything, we'll see. what it does do, solidifies in people's mints this is somebody not ready for primetime. wasn't part of the conversation. clear r clearly the romney-cain show. he was like a deer caught in the headlights. not good perceptions to have for somebody looking to win the nomination. >> pete? >> i think rick perry is going to be sitting right back in austin before you know. i have to find out from will whose a texas conservative how rick perry has never not lost. he's never loftd an election. doesn't say much for texas democrats. maybe his tie too tight, saw

something shiny in the audience. rick perry, i don't don't even know if he knew he was there. one issue, economics. he wasn't prepared even to talk about that. >> i don't know. i think will cain and perry out for an all-nighter. hiding the facts. question two, governor ris chri comes out strong for romney. didn't rule out a vp spot. >> governor romney, would he be on your short list? >> of course he'd be on anyone's short list. he may take himself off the list and say, no way, no interest. but the truth is governor christie is one of the leading figures in the republican party and, of course, anyone who becomes our nominee will look at people like governor christie and say, that would be a terrific person to be on the ticket. >> as you see them sitting there. could this be a winning ticket? maria? >> if you look at christie, nobody believes his answers to bake questions and romney has two answers for every question.

it actually might be the ticket romney's looking for. but in all seriousness, these are two historically moderate, at least that's how they're seen, republicans who in the eyes of conservatives are not going to be they're fave lioritn terms of being the favorite. romney needs all the help he can get pushing back against the flip-flop issue. that will dog him throughout the nomination. >> nobody believes christie's answers, maria? what planet are you on? >> when he kept saying no, he's not running. no one believed him, little. >> go ahead, will. >> if there's one thing christie carries authenticity. takes on his own ticket. that's why that ticket, romney-christie could work. the one thing romney needs to seem he has a spine, a backbone, he stands for something more than just getting your vote.

that being said i think it may be too moderate a ticket. romney rubio is an inevitable ticket. >> romney-christie will appeal a lot to republican voters who be big fans of laurel and hardy, david spade and chris farley. a great ticket. the truth is, the truth is, anybody could possibly be president obama, and republicans hate president obama. i mean, you could have a romney-conrad murray ticket and republicans would still vote for mitt romney. anything can happen. we'll see. >> third question, guys. and final question. jon huntsman's daughters tweeting about cnn's debate in las vegas coming up tuesday night. they're actually flirting with mitt romney's son tag. look at this. they tweet, want to tailgate for the next debate? vegas wild. we'll bring the godfather's. you bring the diet coke. followed up, mormon tabernacle cho choir -- you see, finding his

dad in a photo. there it is. tag right there. what do you think? how should he respond? >> well, quickly, affirmatively. there's not many truisms. when three ladies invite you to vegas for vegas wide, you respond affirmatively. >> maria? >> i think that's adorable. flirting between potential first children. i don't know. i think it should say something like, let me introduce you to my friends. i need to prove to them angels really exist. i don't know. i think it's adorable and i agree with will, he should say, yes. >> pete? >> well, first of all, the romney-huntsman family some of the best looking americans ever to live. that's annoying me, but a diet coke? godfather's pizza and the mormon tabernacle choir, that sounds like a party. do they know they're in vegas? i think the tag should be the gentleman that they is and give a gentlemenly answer like, i don't know, what are you wearing? >> leave it to pete. >> sarcasm, pete.

give them credit for sarcasm. >> they get the credit. >> maria, scared to party with pete. thanks, guys. >> could be a lot of heavy petting and necking at that party. >> don't forget, next tuesday -- >> and tweeting, apparently. >> gosh. i'm moving on. quickly. next tuesday night live on cnn, republican candidates for president duke it out in las vegas, debatings issues and try to sway voters with a republican debate. tuesday night, 8:00 eastern. we'll be right back.

for eric holder's documents related to a federal gun-running sting. you remember it? "fast and furious." cnn brian todd brings us the latest developments. what do you know? >> reporter: carol, just got word the house and government oversight committee issued a subpoena to the justice

department for seemingly hundreds of relevant documents. documents relative to the "fast and furious" gun tracking program that went so terribly wrong. what we're told now is that these documents seek communications between eric holder, the attorney general and several top deputies including his chief of staff gary grindler and lanny brewer, the assistant attorney general in charge of the criminal division. this committee wants all the documents relevant to communications between those officials over "fast and furious" and also named about 13 other top officials of the justice department. so they're seeking just about any relevant communications regarding the "fast and furious" case and also want to know, want documents relating to the investigation into the murder of border patrol officer brian terri. his murder back in december is really what blew this whole thing open. some weapons from the "fast and furious" program were found nir the crime scene of that officer's murd are and they want documents relating to that investigation and documents that have to do with any

communications that justice had with the white house over "fast and furious." so that is what is out now. the subpoena seeking those documents. eric hold hear said -- holder has said the justice department would comply and send all relevant documents that that committee, and congressman darrell issas republican. something he complained about. the documents he has often gotten already from justice, a lot look like this. heavy redactions. no doubt looking to see if the documents sent to him have those as well. putting more pressure on justice right noi for those documents. >> brian todd with the breaking news. we'll follow it. thanks. straight ahead, former hockey star brendan shanahan spent years on the ice. oh, yeah. in addition to the bruises, knocking out teeth, now making players play nice, or at least nicer. for their health. he joins me live next. first, if you're nearing retirement you might think of a job change. not that it's for you, "money" magazine has a look at jobs for

well, the nhl is cracking down on players who fight. players who hit opponents in the head like this. from every angle, and slow mooed for clarity, nhl great brendan shanahan posted this on his twitter to show all of you how dangerous hockey can be. the league's any director of player safety and already is feeling the backlash for his discipline. brendan joining me live from new york. brendan, you can suspended five times in your career. you louvved to fight. a part of the game. how did you end up in this job? >> well, it's a little like hiring a safe cracker to build

you the perfect safe, i guess. you know, i don't think that the game is too dangerous. i think is the game is fabulous. i love the game. we have some dangerous hits what have crept into the game and it's our department's goal to get rid of some of those hits, and to make videos and show the players, to communicate and educate them exactly what they can and can't do. this is a generation of hockey players. they watch things on videos. they don't want to be told what to do. they want to see what to do. >> doesn't this change the nature of the sport, brendan? i mean, that's what fans want. they want their fierce enforcers. >> we do, too. we want fierce, competitive, physical hockey, but there's a big difference between the art of throwing a body-check and somebody head hunting. that's the delicate balance that our department is looking for. i played physically. rob blake played physically. there are several om people in our department that value

physical hockey, and hockey will always be that. we love that about the game, but we also think that there are some illegal hits, and some ugly trends that have crept in the game that players want out of the game. parents want out. charon want out, and the nhl wants out, and that's what our goal is. >> so is this about issues with injuries, brain injuries for example, or is this just about too much roughness on the ice and making things dangerous for fans in addition to those on the ice? >> well, this was -- i would say, you know, the evolving things we're learning about concussions. the nhl has always been ahead in that field and this is a step top reduce significantly the amount of con kogss. that's our goal. when you're a player, go on the ice, you expect a certain amount you may get hurt, but a very fine line. the difference between getting hurt and getting injured. and every athlete expects to

have the bump, bruises and pain that goes along with being a professional athlete. when somebody starts messing with a guy's career and his future by trying to injure him specifically in the head area, that's where players want to take a step back and say, this isn't something we want in our game, and that's our goal. >> final question. you've been given the nickname sheriff shanny. handed out nine suspensions in the preseason. critics are saying you're running a kangaroo court, turning hockey into touch football. tough criticism there are a macho hockey player. quickly what do you say to them, brendan? >> well, you know, we have some -- very few people. i've actually gotten a lot of support. a few people, ats with special interests that get outspoken, and i've had some general managers, one or two, complain about the suspensions. i've had other general managers complain there haven't been enough. to me this job is about balance and finding that right combination of physical hockey but a safer game. >> brendan shand haahan.
